Conor McGregor teaming up with the WWE? Maybe
And finally, Attar revealed what it would take to get McGregor into the ring for the WWE. He followed that gem up by calling WWE’s John Cena a “big, fat 40-year-old failed Mr. Olympia motherf***er”.
Yoel Romero scored a stunning knockout win over Chris Weidman; Khabib Nurmagomedov put on an excellent display on the preliminary card, while Tyron Woodley and Stephen Thompson battled to a hard fought draw.
After McGregor’s victory at UFC 205, the Irishman announced at the post-fight press conference that he would be taking some time off from the sport to welcome his first child with longtime girlfriend Dee Devlin.
The defeat stunned the UFC world and ushered in a new obsession from McGregor to improve his stamina and the fighter eventually gained revenge for the loss at UFC 202.
Conor McGregor to WWE very possible.
“We’ll take on any challenges and I think that’s what fighters do”.
We’ve already seen him talk about being underpaid for what he brings to the UFC. “That’s what it comes down to”, said Attah. I don’t think Mayweather would be willing to give McGregor either of those things. “Obviously as Dana was saying, Dee gets kinda nervous and very anxious when Conor’s fighting and her nerves would be gone, and obviously she doesn’t need to be under any stress when she’s due to have a baby”. Well, that’s not accurate; he’s always been loyal to and interested in money.
“Obviously for Conor, it’s about the pay-per-views and it’s about the money”. Pacquiao wouldn’t be asking for a 50-50 deal either.
“For the most part, those WWE guys are (expletive)”, McGregor said. They want to see something special, again, the Diaz fight again is special. The fans would want to see something special.
“Look, it wasn’t something we started, right?” It’s obviously built up public interest. But I don’t know if the excitement is there.
It would be a lucrative move for him.. “This is the fight business”. He literally demanded the next title shot during the fight while he was hitting Johnson with strikes on the ground. He changed his mind previous year, when McGregor agreed to fight Chad Mendes on short notice. He is 24-0 and ranked the UFC’s 14th-best pound-for-pound fighter. Conor lives in the gym, and he loves to fight. “But now he’s doing this and I’m thinking he’s trying to avoid Khabib”. White has stated McGregor will have to vacate one of the titles, but that has not happened yet. “I know this. To stop me with my style my opponent needs to knock me out”.
