So, big news made tonight in one tweet from Dana, but we need to be VERY skeptical about this because I think the fans are collectively being used by Dana and/or the UFC to pressure Eddie into signing a bout agreement. Also, we can't discount the possibility that Dana is drunk and talking silly shit.
Uhhh.... wow. Random fan asks Dana if Eddie Alvarez is going to fight Conor for the LW title at UFC 205. Perfectly reasonable speculation, a lot of people are calling that shot. Dana says no, he's fighting Khabib Nurmagomedov, which holy shit that would be big news both for the fact that the Alvarez fight isn't happening, AND that looks like a HORRIFIC matchup for Conor. In that weight division, there is not a 155 fighter on the planet who I think would be a worse matchup for Conor. if he can actually somehow beat the Eagle, then **** it, at that point I think Conor can do anything.
Because it looks like such a terrible matchup for their golden boy, you gotta think there are negotiation shenanigans going on. (or Dana is goofing off). Also, a UFC official quickly denied that anything is decided about Conor's next fight.
