Conor McGregor gets paid because he's a PPV needle mover ... and can shut down Ireland
It seems he is the new promising MMA Star.
"At the end of the day, it's a business. The guy can literally drive numbers from an entire country. When Conor fights the entire country of Ireland shuts down. We get like a 60 share of the TV market there. Over 11 percent of the tickets sold in Las Vegas were from Ireland. He moves the needle on pay-per-view. He headlined his first event in Ireland, did a $1.4 million gate. Of course, we're going to reward guys that are successful in the Octagon and have a lot of wins and things like that, but if you can be like a [Georges St-Pierre] or be like a Brock Lesnar, who people are now comparing Conor to with the excitement that he's bringing, then you're going to have the ability to potentially drive a little bit harder of a negotiating bargain because you do bring that to the UFC."

I wonder if Joon is now Irish too?

to be honest its very hard for me to dislike another person, especially a UFC fighter or somebody into lifting weights but this dude conner really gets on my nerves. its one thing to be confident and such then theres another thing to be a straight up arrogant jerk off like him,hes a jerk off

Whats your take on him? You know your stuff, do you think he is a good fighter and will become another GSP or J.Jones?
-
No way will this little guy ever compare to a beast like Lesnar.

He is the best dressed guy in mma.

to be honest wolfrittner,i think its very very hard for a guy that light to ever really be a huge draw compared to guys like lesner,cain,chuck,tito ect, me personally ive never been a huge fan of the lighter guys when it came to ordering a PPV,ANYTHING BELOW 170 im not that interested.fans In general like to see the 170lber guys and up throwdown,LHW AND HW even better. don't get me wrong there is tons of talent in the lighter weight classes but from a fans point of view its just not as exciting as seeing the bigger boys throwdown,as far as conner goes,hed have to beat maybe a cub swanson before id say hes one of the very best,i think aldo or edger would beat him tho,thats just my opinion

He would absolutely destroy edgar imo, are we talking about the same guy that had a hard time with maynard? Conor throws so much harder then edgar it's not even funny. He\s movement is light years ahead and his striking is aldo level, edgar gets by on toughness mixed with good boxing, he outlasts and out hearts guys, he won't be able to sustain Conor hitting him imo, which he would do over and over.

he's a really entertaining fighter though. i think he's going to be the real deal in mma. he is SO versatile.
