    Connor has drawing power. He could do a miilion ppvs just by showing up. He's the biggest star in combat sports.

      You know what? You're right.

      Probably just my personal bias towards the cult of "personality" fans. The same shit happens all over, there just happens to be a lot more of you guys, lol.

      Peace.

        You can't deny his drawing power. His fan base is global unlike Floyd where the US is virtually where his fans live.

        Connor has way more fans than Floyd.

          You're more of a Goblin than a troll

          So....why is Floyd making most of the money???

          Floyd has been sold more PPV events than Connor can in his wildest dreams

All the disarray in boxing the sport needed a shot in the arm and here he is Mr Connor McGregor. He brought the sport back to the big time. Every day espn talks about the fight on multiple media outlets the only fight that matters is this one. Connor has re energized boxing he's helped make it mainstream again. I really hope he stays because we need stars like him to bring in new fans.

                Idiotic post, Connor has broken 1mil PPV buys multiple times as a headliner. Nate has never done any PPV numbers without Connors name attached to it.

                    Idiotic? Gtfoh! Conor is a wannabe Diaz brother. Everything he does is what the Diaz Bros started. U can't deny that. He's just a white carbon copy with an Irish accent.

                      Diaz is a trash talker but cannot articulate ish. I was dis*****g your post that Diaz is the reason for their PPV numbers.
                      Floyd's a smart marketer. He would have fought Diaz if Diaz was the cash cow of MMA.
