This fight is just a to put the Irish man back in condition and in the spot light in preparation for a bigger fight. It is known that he is eyeing for a fight with Masvidal. Masvidal as been in the news lately with his awesome victory with Askren and Diaz. But this fight with the Cowboy is not going to be a walk in the park for the Notorious as we have seen Donald Cerrone is doing good lately except for his light fight. Before losing to Ferguson and Gaethje, he is on a 3 win streak.

I'm really not interested in McGregor anymore. He talks big game and then gets stomped at every major fight.

He got whooped by Diaz, absolutely mauled by Khabib and Mayweather gave him a schooling.

People should stop paying attention to this loudmouth.

That's pure marketing. Kind of overdone and messy, though. And it is one thing to market something that has a hundred percent guarantee and quite another to just market it, create too much hype around it, but end up a total dud. Connor has consistently been the latter in his recent fights. His mouth is doing all the perfect talking, but his performance falls short of the walking. But at least the tickets are selling like hot cakes, or are they?

The ticket is indeed selling because of the rivalry and because of his opponent who is both box office attraction, two consecutive fights and the many controversies that haunts him, it's time for Connor to get back in a much easier, and that is picking a lesser opponent in Cerrone, Cerrone was good but I don't think he is at it's best right now, not unlike in the past, but let's see they might be an upset here.

There are a lot of hate towards Conor McGregor in the forum and i wonder whether he will be able to pull the same numbers like he used to do in the past
When McGregor came into the UFC the entire crowd was behind him as he was entertaining and was winning fights and he was a mystic mac. he might have fast tracked and got title opportunities because of his huge number of fan followings and if you start behaving like a dick you are portraying the entire country in a bad light as everyone is a dick and that will reflect in his fan following after that.

In any case, the skeptical me is thinking that punching the old man was a set up and all the other bad news about him was created by him conciously for everyone to hate him to make himself remain relevant in the game.
That would be a million dollar stunt as i am sure he settled the old man after that, if you are famous and rich and if you start getting into trouble everyone will be having the share of the free money.

The giant is back in the ring and just like every time, this is going to be a very hyped match when it comes to bets and gambling. The match is taking place in Las Vegas on January 18 next year. My favorite obviously is the Irishman Conor. Who do you think you'd be placing your bets on?
Finally Conor McGregor is tired of fighting old people in bar and planned on returning back to the cage, he lost many fans because of the outside antics and when he returns i would like to see whether he can attract crowd like he used to do in the past, so this fight is really important for his career as he needs to be well prepared and a loss again would end his career literally. The reason i like this match up is because the Irishman is smart enough to pick Donald Cerrone because there is a past history of Cerrone handling trash talking and he usually performs badly and that happened in the Nate Diaz fight and Donald Cerrone could not do any major attack and that might happen in this fight too as Conor is a master trash talker.

He did not lose me hehehe.

In any case, the skeptical me is thinking that punching the old man was a set up and all the other bad news about him was created by him conciously for everyone to hate him to make himself remain relevant in the game.

It might be the only way Khabib will pay attention to him.

McGregor is more a clown than a giant. Especially after the Nurmagomedov rhetoric before the game.

I will skip all of his future events, at least until he proves himself being a normal man, not a clown.

My bet is going to Donald Cerrone. Sportingbet is having it at 3.00!

He prove himself in the ring many times before. He won belt though having a fucked up attitude. Hated by everyone but I admired the most. Despite the attitude, and the hates he receiving from countless of people, he still accept the fact that he is a damn intelligent fighter inside the ring. It never backfires mate, it is just either the opponent is better than him or he had a not-so-good decision at the time he about to lose. So, I'll still bet on Conor because he is good fighter. I am not trying to be bias but looking upon his fighting style, he is still worthy of wearing the championship belt.


I don't hate it at all. He's just antipathic with his attitude.

IMO McGregor is overrated, especially after so much time off the octagon and I find value in Cerrone bet...

That isn' true. He is overconfident but it doesn't make him a less of a sportsman. Regardless of the fame and money, he has earned, remember he was a beast in the cage and have made legendary fights MMA has ever witnessed. I'm sure his comeback will legendary!

Conor will probably win this but the excitement & aura that surrounded him died when Khabib destroyed him, for me at least. I used to really like him, he is too interested in money & fame. 3 years ago he would have beaten Khabib, now he’s just another fighter.
He's not just another fighter. He makes more money from advertising and products than from MMA, to be honest. Having said that, you cannot say he won't come back stronger.
I can sense the hate for Conor on this thread.  Grin Well i cant blame them though yet some wont really like his too over confident but when it comes to fighting i cant really deny that this man is a beast.

Havent seen Cerrone though (I might watch some vid later on). Lets see if his comeback would turn out to be positive for him.

I disagree with this statement, Khabib was not getting enough attention from the UFC as he was supposed to fight for the title a long time back and so does Tony Ferguson as they were winning fights after fight for years and when Khabib defeated Rafael dos Anjos in 2014 he just needed one more fight to earn a title shot and then the injury hit him, if you remember during that time after getting mauled by Khabib, RDA had a title run which lasted for a long time until Eddie Alvarez starched him and then too Khabib had to climb the ladder and was kept on waiting even after a long layoff from injury and he started mauling people again and the rest is history. If Conor was fighting like he used to he would presented a better attack but to defeat Khabib is a different ball game as none of the striking based fighters will ever have a chance not even a lucky punch in my opinion Smiley.

Good luck defeating Khabib even when he was starting his rise in the UFC, they are completely different fighters and there is no way Conor will have a chance against the bear and he is probably the greatest fighter in the history of the sport and everyone knew that Conor was going to get mauled when ever he returns back to UFC after the Mayweather fight and i bet he focused on boxing because he knew Khabib was waiting for him after he won the belt.

Donald Cerrone the cowboy is fading I have seen his last fight with Gaethje and it's not really good, where he was knock out, what a way for Connor to pick an opponent, well maybe because he needs an easy fight to get into the picture again, and he wants to build up a rematch against Nurmagomedov.
Cerrone may be past his prime but you also have to consider the weight class they are going to fight. Donald is more of a natural welterweight compared to Conor. He struggled with his cardio the two times he fought against Nate in that division so this definitely not an easy fight for him. Cerrone may not have a tough chin like Diaz but I consider him a better striker. If the fight goes past two or three rounds, Donald can win.

I will go bet to Conor McGregor and I am pretty sure that he will take down his enemy inside the octagon, Conor McGregor is one of the giant when it comes to the MMA he knows mixed martial arts and also boxing. Conor Mcgregor dominates so many of his opponents and also I like the attitude of him inside and out so I rather respect and follow him. Within the fight of Conor McGregor and Donald Cerrone it will be a good fight because they are both strong and they are both defeat so many opponents but in this case I will still go to McGregor.

They've had some verbal arguments during interviews in the past events which could also add hype to this fight.

Conor has been out of the game for a long time and hasn't been really focused just like when he first came to the UFC. Donald, on the other hand, has been very inconsistent but I like the fact that he is always ready to take fights even on short notice.

The fight could go down to who has the better cardio and that might be Donald.
