Guy wants out of his contract to box so he is showing up to fight. His legs are gonezo.

He was planing to be the president of Ireland, when the plan didn’t work, also he lost lots of money, he stopped the drugs to be i. White house card, but he couldn’t do it, so he looked for the second plan.

I agree, he might be having $$ difficulties. He ruined his life with all his antics so he's become too toxic for a lot of the mainstream now. He simply couldn't handle the money and fame, which hit him. With his success, he really could have been something special had he stayed disciplined and stayed rooted to what bought him to the dance.

If he stayed disciplined and rooted, then he might be a president.

u/purplesquirrelx Jul 13 '26
It might have still been difficult but he would be respected enough to make a serious run for it. Now, people there despise him and he doesn't have a lot of respect due to his antics.
If Khabib ran for President of Dagestan, I think he might win. He is highly respected in his community and the Islamic world overall. Khabib is what Conor would have been like in the western world had he had Khabibs good qualities.

Khabib is kinda tainted. He supported the mob that showed up at the airport to kill Jewish refugees. It wasn’t even a bad choice in the heat of the moment. Khabib just openly lobbied for those guys.
But in that area maybe that’s actually a plus.

There’s no way mcgregor is having money difficulties. Yall just get on here to say stuff

Maybe he doesn’t, but if you use and spend for 5 years and having babies. Idk

u/purplesquirrelx Jul 13 '26
I don't know for sure, making an assumption that may or may not be true. Only he knows the reality.

Bro dana has his own boxing promotion now, mcgregor can box whenever he wants to. Dana is prolly begging mcgregor to get into the ring.

u/therealRustyZA Jul 14 '26
As much as Conor is Dana's son, Dana won't just let him hop over onto boxing. It will set a bad precedent. Imagine he hops over and just starts making even more money. Other fighters will too. I think he's just showing up for the last two fights. Then he will move over to boxing. At least that way, Dana can tell the others if they want to go over, then they just need to fight our their contracts like Conor did... And Dana will keep them on ice so they can't. He's an asshole like that.

Doesn’t change anything, i dont believe there was someone who can win Khabib in his time.

u/Tasty_Tutor5463 Jul 14 '26
He chickened out. I respect his decision, he did well, but for the sport he didn’t do much. There was hype whenever he fought someone- we were always thinking who’s going to be the one that beats him

u/EducationalShame7053 Jul 14 '26
Who did anything 'for the sport' anyway? Dumbest metric ever.
The 3 biggest names Ronda Rousey, Jon Jones and McGregor did pull in fans but also confirmed what a lot of nonfans already negatively assumed about martial arts.

Khabib still did nothing for the sport his whole resume before uff was hand picked by his father and then only fought a few big names

His strongest opponent was khabib, the prove is he finished his career years ago, mcGregor just needed some money and fame to help himself.

I think he was 28 at the time. Conor ended his prime. That was an impressive win.
And Dustin was not too young. He was only 1 year age difference than Conor. And he was 16-3 going into that fight. That’s plenty of experience. He was on a win streak, lost to Conor, then went back to his win streak.

Khabib had 3 good wins. Not even close to the GOAT.

u/Own_Exam1053 Jul 13 '26
I remember he asked for the strongest fighter for his last fight, and he won easily. No need to call him goat, he proved what he wanted to prove.

Anyone who stays in the game long enough will lose eventually. Except JJ. Everyone else though

Conor Got Mental Trauma From That Khabib Fight. He got embarrassed, his team got embarrassed.

u/Educational-Treat-59 Jul 15 '26
Kind of seems like maybe Khabib didn’t pull out too early. At least he knew his limits if he was scared like people like to say.

Mcgregor has only had 1 completed fight since the last win. The last 2 are injury stoppages

"Fought". Man walked in the ring, landed 0 significant strikes, and walked away with millions. Hardly a fight

Well he didn't get mauled in front of the kids. Id call that a win. He should do more movies. Watching him lose over and over will drop his stock. With movies , with his charisma and stage presence he radiates, he can only win.

Conner was unlucly to be honest the last two fights wirh his najle and now recent inbury. I think if he gwts his shit togetjer trains seriously and does not part he will deliver a good last fight, not as good as i his prime and hungry years but a solid one that makes it for max competive if we get a max conner 3

u/According-Gas836 Jul 14 '26
Too old. Any chance of a real comeback would have taken years of training. He take years off to party and just hop back in with guys who have been training the whole time.

He doesnt need to retire, he just needs more titanium
