Comments Thread For: McGregor Was NOT Successful in Getting Nevada Boxing License

[The Problem Child]

I TRULY BELIEVE, GUARANTEED floyd BEGGED the commission so Conor wouldn't get licensed to duck him. Floyd would get KTFO within 3, mark my words.

Nate Diaz has had the highest rating on UFC Fight Night and has had the most fight night bonuses of any ufc fighter. That can translate into higher pay per views. It's not like Conor was selling a million pay per view buys right when he joined the UFC either.

Yet he never headlined a PPV before he fought Conor. Imagine that. I wouldn't say he deserves no credit because his personality does play off of Conor's perfectly, but McGregor is still responsible for the bulk of the buys by far. It's so obvious it shouldn't even be arguable.

And the reason Conor didn't draw millions of buys for a PPV before UFC is because he didn't begin his ****-talking persona until he got there, and they gave him the platform to become a star.

So let me get this straight. Canelo deserves most of the credit for the 2.2 million pay per view buys he did with Floyd despite never headlining a ppy event either but Nate Diaz doesn't deserve credit for the 1.5 million he did with Conor??

What the hell bro lol

I never even mentioned Canelo lol. Of course Floyd deserve most of the credit for those 2 million buys. I also said Diaz deserved at least some credit in my last post, but I'm talking about general star power. Conor and Diaz had excellent chemistry as rivals and got a lot of people enamoured in their fights (especially after Diaz upset Conor in the first one), but Nate wouldn't draw anywhere near those same numbers against just any opponent. Conor has reached such a level as a star at this point that he could.

Nate trains with a lot of top boxers like Andrew Ward.

but nonetheless, Nate didn't beat him with boxing. he just beat him with cardio.

Yes he did, but the second time those shin kicks were working him over and I realize they spar with ward, but they always seem to get out boxed. I think they just go to the same gym and ward helps hype them up. I can't stand either of them.
