If Dana said that, that Makachev now has to fight Benil Darius before he can
fight for the title,
I think that sets up a Conor fight. I think that might be why he did it.
Well, that's probably why, let's be honest, because Conor was at Bellator last
Friday
and he did an interview and he said, yeah, I think I'm coming back and fighting
for the belt.
It's kind of crazy.
Oh, no, it's wild, but, but, if you own the company, would you want that to
happen?
You probably would, let's be honest, because the reality is Conor's best days
are long gone.
They're behind him. You know, you can't stay at the top forever.
Perhaps.
Probably, probably.
Well, the last fight, listen, we've got to look at it this way.
It takes a long time off. The cowboy fight is very quick.
You don't get to see what's really going on.
And then Dustin fucks him up and Dustin fucked him up with calf kicks.
His leg was destroyed.
That's one of the best examples of a calf kick winning the fight.
There you go.
And then, of course, beautiful combination.
Starts off with that right hand, rocks him, puts him away, knocks him out.
No questions asked.
Then comes in the second fight with a hairline fracture already in his shin.
Yeah.
And then fights and his leg snaps.
He falls back.
It's very, it's very unsatisfying.
It is unsatisfying.
And then he has a year off.
Yeah.
And then also, who knows what he's like now?
I mean, his fucking shin has a bolt in it forever.
He's got these plates on his shin trying to glue the whole thing together.
And it's a year later, a year out of his prime.
I mean, who knows?
He hasn't sparred.
I'll tell you this, though.
If there's a person that you put him against in the top five to beat, it would
be Charles Oliveira.
You think so?
Charles is hittable.
And Conor can still fucking hit.
That's true.
He's fast.
You know, Charles is hittable.
He's hittable, but he can take it, too, man.
He's not going to wrestle.
Oh, no, he can't take it.
He can take it, man.
I know, he's not there.
The fact that he survived both Dustin's onslaught, where he really thought he
was going to get put away,
and Justin, or Michael Chandler.
Chandler.
Chandler had him hurt bad.
Yeah.
You know, survives that and then comes out and starches Chandler in the second
round.
Yeah, but he's not Superman.
He's not Superman, but God damn, he's ferocious.
No, I'm just saying, like, who else is that?
I mean, Gagey.
But Gagey never uses his bloody wrestling anyway, so.
Who knows?
Islam wouldn't be good.
Who else is there?
Chandler would probably wrestle him.
So, in terms of stylistic matchup.
Gagey's very dangerous for a guy like Conor.
If Conor, if Gagey beats Oliveira, Gagey versus Conor is a dangerous fight for
Conor.
Who the fuck kicks your legs better than Gagey?
Oh, shit.
I never thought of that.
I thought you were talking about his boxing.
His boxing's ferocious, too.
Yeah, no, I forgot.
You're right, though.
Oh, my God.
The calf kicks, the leg kicks.
His leg kicks are brutal.
Some of the best in the game.
And he also is a great wrestler, too.
Oh, of course.
And Gagey will kick your leg from inside a tie-up, which is crazy.
You ever see him do that?
No, I have.
His hips are so flexible.
Yeah.
He could throw those tight leg kicks from, like, grabbing inside.
He's got, like, an over-under on you, and he fucking kicks your legs.
Yeah, yeah.
No, it's crazy.
His highlight reel, like, is some of the best leg kicking I've ever seen in the
lightweight division.
It's fucking amazing.
And he did it to guys like Edson Barbosa, like, lights his legs up.
I'm just saying, though, there's a potential that Conor comes back, beats
Charles Oliveira,
and becomes champion again.
Because that is, and then that's, I don't think I could deal with the world if
that happened.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Ireland would have a fucking parade that would last a month long.
Oh, my God.
But it might happen.
It might happen.
Listen, if Conor connects on anybody's mug.
That's what I'm saying.
You never know.
He's still got that left hand.
He's still got power and speed in it.
What Farras Dahabi calls the touch of death.
Is that what he calls it?
That's what Farras Dahabi is.
He's got the touch of death.
Kind of does.
Kind of does.
It really does.
It's diminished a little bit.
Maybe.
Well, you know, again, it's like, it's one of the things that he said about the
first Poirier knock.
When Poirier stopped him, he goes, it was too much inactivity.
I wasn't, you know, I'm not ready for this yet.
Yeah.
Then he comes back, fights him a second time, and the second time gets fucked
up with a broken leg.
So it's like, I don't know, you know, where he's at now mentally.
But he's got so much fucking money.
Yeah.
He sold proper 12.
Yeah.
He made like a half a billy.
Yeah.
He's got like a half a billy.
That's it, though.
It changes.
I mean, you can say whatever you want.
Of course he's going to say that.
And we all say it, you know.
Oh, I'm still the same guy.
I'm still the same fighter.
No, you fucking ain't.
Right.
No, you're not.
Your motivation for doing this is gone.
Right.
You're doing it now because, listen, and you've got to respect this about him.
We don't have a good relationship, but you've got to respect this about him.
He loves the fight game.
You know what I mean?
And I respect that about him.
I really do.
So that's something, that's the only thing that he can't buy.
Right.
I mean, the guy can buy whatever he wants.
Right, right, right.
He's buying yachts and this and that.
God bless him.
But you can't buy the UFC championship of the world.
That's the only thing you can't buy.
So he's got no choice to go and fight for it.
And he's still choosing to do that.
You have to respect that, to be honest.
Right.
