He's going to make millions on this fight, there's no way he doesn't walk out on July 11th unless the state cancels the fight.

If anything, this broken rib thing makes him more money if he loses, because although he was probably going to get an instant rematch if he lost, this now guarantees it, and people will want to pay to see Conor defend the title against the "real" Aldo.

I think he make more money at 155lb. The casual fans arent familar with the fighters or care as much about 135 and 145 IMO.
