@Sithara007. I reckon Conor was asking too much from the UFC. According to some news adricles, he wanted ownership shares. However, he was told by Dana White that it was never going to happen.

Maybe this is another story board created by Conor and Dana to reboot Conor's MMA career hehehe.


Dana (i.e UFC) can survive without Conor (may be they'll lose a few hundred thousand Irish supporters). But can Conor survive without UFC? I don't know whether the rumors are true or not. If he is demanding the ownership shares, then I would say that he is bargaining too hard. Needs to be realistic about your demands...

Conor can survive comfortably hehehe. He made more the $100mil in his fighting career and he also has Proper no.12, his whisky distillery which is killing it according to Dana.

Also, why will Conor not buy the shares? Why does he want the UFC to give it to him as an offering?

I hope so, we have seen lots of sports personalities in the past who have lost all their fighting money. He has a lavish lifestyles, the cars, the houses, you need big money to maintained it. So I don't know if he can stay afloat with that if he stop his fighting career.

But the good thing is that he has a fall back though, like you said. His whisky business, will it bring enough money for him after he retired?

Probably wanted be a majority share holders, hehehe.

Also, Conor has announced his retirement from MMA.

He was not very happy with UFC. And to tell the truth, he wasn't given fair treatment by the UFC (probably because he was non-American). But that is no valid reason to stay out of MMA altogether. There are other brands out there, such as Bellator and DREAM. But the financials may not be as strong as UFC.

^  Yup.  But Barboza could f*ck him up with body shots tho...  But yeah, still leaning on Gaethje cos the odds on seem value.

Barboza vs Gaethje is a good bout to watch, well they both come from a K.O win but I think Gaethje got this fight.

Gaethje has a great punch I watched his fight against Vicks several times https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TfsiEOyvJo and the guy really packs a wallop, such devastating one punch and it took Vicks several times, to realize that he has been knock out, I expect to see Gaethje to do this again my bet is on Gaethje.

@Zadicar. I reckon it might be something similar to what Floyd Mayweather is doing. He comes out of retirement only if the money offered is high enough for him.

I have noticed, that it is becoming common to put a women fight on on the main card.
Few years ago women in ufc were something new, now almost every event has 1-2 fights.

Some women fights are more watchable than men fights unsurprisingly if the girls fighting are 2 beautiful women hehehe.

Both are 33 years old and nearing the end of their career. IMO, the best lady out there is Maryna Moroz of Ukraine. She recently lost to Angela Hill in a very keenly contested match (unanimous decision after 3rd round), but her performance was awesome.

33 years old but looking better than most 18 year olds hehehehe. Certainly in this modern time of fast food, tv entertainment and video games.

Also, Conor has announced his retirement from MMA.

By the looks of their body, they look young due to their constant training. Anyway, most models nowadays who look young were above their 20s or 30s but still kicking ass with their beauty and most especially to the ones who can fight inside the ring.

And for Conor, finally, he's planning to end his career and it seems that after his last fight he stopped since it would bring chaos to both of them.

In any case, I reckon Karolina is the real karate hottie, but I predict Michelle Waterson will win this, however. She has improved her clinching where it showed during her fight vs Felice Herrig.

At first the two head liners doesn't ring a bell for me but upon looking at the fight stats of this two Barboza and Gaethje and most specially Gaethje, both striking percentage is above 50% and Gaethje take down attempts is only 1 but KO finishes is at 16 out of 19. I'm looking forward for a slug fest this coming Saturday.

Yeah, both of them have been in wars for years, but I think Gaethje  is more strong mentally though, I see Barboza easily gave up when he is overwhelmed, but Gaethje seems to fight back when his back is against the wall.

In my opinion, this will be a pretty astonishing bout both players have a lower body strength that each opponent should watch out for, Justin Gaethje is a Wrestler so submissions are just like a walk in the park and he obviously has potential in countering it, But Edson Barboza doesn't likely to use a submission against his opponent I should say Gaethje should watch out for Barboza's explosive knee kicks and roundhouse kicks that apparently will knock him out and because of Barboza had the upper hand with the reach but apparently this match will be stunning, I have a second thought of who would I pick but I will go with Barboza because I am seeing some intimidation on him than on Gaethje.

A couple of videos to watch and see what these guys are made of.  Wink  Barboza's prolly gonna win but I'm leaning towards Gaethje.  It feels like Gaethje's constant pressure could be too much and could neutralize Barboza's kicks.

Enjoy.
