@nydiacaskey01. I reckon no. Floyd Mayweather will not dare fight in any MMA organization, especially not among the best in the UFC. He will not last 1 round in there.

I speculate that Floyd might be planning something involving the UFC but it will involve him fighting in the octagon.

I would not directly say no. Mayweather is training for MMA and if he would fight in the MMA, it will bring him (and Conor) a lot of money, probably even more than the boxing match. Offcourse Conor would win the fight, but that is irrelevant.

Now let's get Conor vs Khabib or Tony, or maybe Conor will make everyone wait and wait for Tony vs Khabib then fight the winner of that fight, but looks like Danna really wants Conor to defend the belt so that would be Tony vs Conor next.. not sure if im going to bet on any of these, it could go either way.

Dana and Conor will chose whever will bring the most money in the table. Mayweather is training MMA recently. Is this in preparation for his debut in MMA? Both fighters Mayweather and Conor wants attention and big money fight, they succeeded in the boxing match and maybe they can duplicate that success in MMA and besides Conor fans wants to get even and wants the rematch in the octagon.

I won money betting on a Khabib win and I won money betting on a Cyborg win, what a great way to start the year. I knew Khabib wouldn't lose his undefeated record. Took a bit of a risk with Cyborg but i turned out ok.

I'll go with Cyborg even though she is very cocky but damned that girl is a monster she backed up every trash talk she inputs just like what Connor Mcgregor does. So if you are going to bet between she and Holmes go with cyborg the monster.

What the hell are you talking about? Did you know that the fight was already done. I'm sure that you didn't read and just comment here. Please go to youtube and see some highlights. Cyborg already won the fight and its one of the greatest fight that we have seen for the ladies division.

@bbc.reporter, yeah, probably Conor with fight Nate for the trilogy and will just wait for the winner of Khabib vs Ferguson.

Well hopefully mcgregor focuses on his mma career having been able to have a taste of how lucrative boxing fights could be. A trilogy with diaz and a win would silence those people who still doubt him

@btc_angela. I speculate Conor will abandon the belt and give way to Tony Ferguson as the real champ in lightweight for now. We will also see Tony fight Khabib, and then Conor will challenge the winner. But not before Conor fights Nate Diaz first.

So for 2018 it will be Conor versus Nate, then Conor versus Tony or Khabib for the lightweight championship.

Thank @bbc.reporter, this is what I also speculate. Khabib vs Tony for the belt is already interesting and we what been waiting for so long for this fight happen. As Khabib has said, he has plans to fight 3x this year, and I'm 100% that one of them will be against Tony for the belt.

The ladies (Cyborg vs Holly) put up a good fight, actually is a great fight to watch. I was rooting for Holly, however, I think Cyborg really proves that she can adjust and raise her bar. Respect to both of them. I don't know who will be her next challenger, but I love to see her go up against Nunes.

Khabib? Just wow, one of the most lopsided fight I have seen. Khabib vs Ferguson should be next. Connor wouldn't fight Khabib. He is enjoying his millions from his fight with Floyd. Grin

There is no way Conor is coming back to fight Khabib as he knows very well that he is going to be humiliated if he is going to face him,he will set up a fight with Tony Ferguson and if Conor defeats him somehow,then he will be forced to face Khabib and i am sure he will try for the trilogy with Nate or will go to boxing just to avoid Khabib . Cheesy

If Conor fights Khabib, I will give him mad respect. But just like the rest of you guys think, he will try to avoid Khabib at all cost. Grin

Had my notion to pick Cyborg to win cause she looks like a tough girl in a way just like Rousey was before her exit out of the UFC ring for good.
She could be the next champion for the women of the fighting sport we all know now.
The new generation if you will. Wink

She is already the champion right? Maybe what you meant is that she could the next face of the women's division since Ronda has already left and we don't know if she has still something in her to come back and proved everyone is wrong. However as @notserp Cyborg has been fighting for many years, but if my memory serves me right, she wasn't able to get it to the UFC earlier because of steroids allegations.

@gabmen. If the Cyborg and Ronda fought during Ronda's prime, I reckon Ronda would have lost and would have her style and strategy exposed in the same way Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes exposed her.

She is not the problem, her coach, Edmond Tarverdyan, is. No one knows why she does not leave his gym. Also, if Edmond was a cryptocoin, he is a scam ICO token hehehe.

Of course because Ronda can't fight at all. The only thing she knew is how to win on the ground and if she happened to get a good grab she'd win.
She never could take a punch or throw a good combination and was popular mainly because she had the looks and was cocky. Anybody can simply compare how ripped Holy or Cyborg are when compared to Ronda.

I think Cyborg can win this one.

what a crap card to end the year i dont really like anything but i might put small bets on Carla and Edson

Brendan Schaub predicted Carla and Neil Magny to win the fight and ,to bet against Khabib is a bold move as he is undefeated in the elite division in the best organization and the only worry about him was to get on weight during the weigh ins and he defeated Edson easily ,the fight against Holly Holm and Cyborg was close than expected as i thought Cyborg would defeat Holly easily but it was closer than i thought.

I'll wait and see how Khabib performs vs Barboza before doing any ratings. Sometimes it feels like Khabib 'the Eagle', who wrestled bears when he was a kid (LOL), is overrated. The bout vs Ferguson would have been his real test. Too bad he chickened out.

No way Khabib is overrated... he is a legit beast. Im not ready to claim if he chickened out against Ferguson or not... im still yet to see him perform against a guy with a killer reach and and a killer striking skills, which is why I want to see Khabib vs McGregor, but Fergusson would have been a great matchup too.

I think Khabib should win tonight, when we get Tony vs McGregor next year, then we get the winner of this one vs Khabib, and then Conor can go back to boxing or go for a 3rd match against Nate. He is going to make a fuckton of money either way, can't go wrong.

Khabib did not chicken out from that proposed fight,his bad weight cutting issues made him withdraw because his kidney was not functioning and he was forced out of the card because of the weight cutting issues he was facing.Now he is having a special nutritionist to handle his food and diet and i hope he will make weight without much struggle.
