Chael Sonnen backs up Conor: The American gangster is revered as one of the best UFC critics and sports analyst.
He plainly declared, fighters have an eye for Conor not mostly to defeat him,but to earn more. A single fight with McGregor is a legacy.
“I always appreciate the truth. The truth will set you free. We’d sit over here and give him [Conor McGregor] a hard time and say you’re avoiding these guys… or you could just tell us the truth which is just the money fight. It’s a once-in-a lifetime opportunity, I want the opportunity, I want it right now… that’s what Oliveira said… Red panty night is very real. 100%. This has not gone away. So that is what Conor has to offer you. You now have to offer something to Conor.”
Charles Oliveira came up with a straightforward statement. In his recent interview with ESPN MMA, he detailed why he is looking for a fight with Conor McGregor and is not interested in Islam.
Makhachev is 10-1 in the UFC’s lightweight division and has a 10-fight winning streak. In a catchweight bout this year, he TKO’d Bobby Green. He has won over notable names of the divisions such as Dan Hooker, Thiago Moises, and Drew Dober last year.
Oliveira said he’s not convinced that Makhachev has done enough to earn a title shot.
McGregor had been out of the fight game for a long time, and he announced his return with a spectacular transformation and training videos.
The Irishman’s delayed return has devastated the hearts of his fans. In a recent interview, the Champ declared his intention to make history by becoming a three-division champion.
He eventually called out the welterweight champion, Kamaru Usman. “The Nigerian Nightmare” was the best pound-to-pound fighter and was open to the call out.
While McGregor’s comeback was anticipated as one of the historic comebacks in UFC history, his potential opponents were lined up as Nate Diaz, .
The expectations are getting wider as ‘Mystic Macs’ return in more ways, so the rival list might also get longer.
