Mcgregor was basically stating that he is demanding a piece of the UFC or he's walking. I would assume that would be to the WWE. I think it's time for Dana to stop hugging the dude's nuts and tell him to fuck off.

Too many hits to the head does affect one's brain function, in many ways.

WWE doesn't want a guy that's way under 6' and weighs 160lbs. They have refs bigger than that.

Bullshit. WWE wants money. Period.

Right, so they are going to make what, about $1.98, for PPV, from a McGregor vs Lesnar match up? LOL!

Connor brings a lot of value to the product, but corporate management never allow the tail to wag the dog, he wont get ownership he might get a version of profit share over and above what he gets now in events he fights in. He could potentially fight outside the UFC in a promotion he could own, but that could also distract him from doing what's required to stay on top. Securing a big multi fight contract is his best result, outside of his actual involvement as a fighter, I doubt Connor could deliver anything else to the UFC machine and hes only 1 or 2 losses away from being where Ronda is now, where the excitement about her coming back and even dominating the sport again just isn't getting any traction, The product that was Ronda Rousey is done.

McGregor is not in same league as Floyd...and I hate Floyd.

Floyd provides crossover appeal. WWE has plenty of pale bearded tatted up white guys..ha.

Rousey is done done...that face off last night only showed that the next opponent has bigger bone structure at that weight and hands twice the size.

also ronda fought women that did not have very good skills to begin with, these up and coming women are much better fighters., ronda was the female royce gracie, she benefitted from weak competition and danas hype
