Now that the dust has settled after an absolutely ludicrous fight week about a fortnight ago, many people are left thinking, what's next? And I am sure nobody is thinking that more than Conor McGregor. We all know what went down at the Barclays center in brooklyn two weeks ago, so I just want to focus on what's next, and the possible fallout from such a crazy incident.
I can guarantee you that most fight fans want to see Conor back, even if they hate him after the bus attack, there is just a different type of buzz when it is a McGregor card, and it would be such a shame to never have that again, we have not had that many if you think about it.
Now of course his antics can't go unpunished, because the UFC would not exist if everyone was going around acting like that, but I feel the punishment should be more financial than anything else, In my opinion If Conor gets suspended for a year or two, he will only get worse than he is now, remember every single one of his crazy incidents recently have been while he is not in fight camp, MMA seems to be the only thing that keeps him grounded.
It's time for him to get get the head down and get back to basics, he only has a few good fighting years left before his age will get the better of him. In my opinion he is just shy of greatness, if he can get his life back on track and get back into the octagon and start putting people away again, he can easily be in consideration for one of the greatest to ever do it.
If you're interested in the whole story between Conor and Khabib, watch the video above, Joe goes into a bit more detail into what sparked the incident.
Multiple angles of the incident in question.
Conor and his teammate Cian Cowley are due back in court in Brooklyn on June 14th, lets hope a plea deal can be reached then and we can get back to normality by the end of the year. I'm optimistic we see him fight again, he's too big a cash cow to be ignored. Lemme know your thoughts below.
