“UFC has informed Germaine de Randamie and her management team that she is being removed as the women’s featherweight champion due to her unwillingness to fight the No. 1 ranked contender, Cris ‘Cyborg’ Justino…UFC maintains that any champion is expected to accept fights against the top contenders in their respective weight classes in order to maintain the integrity of the sport.”

He and Conor are the only two stars the UFC can put on a card, so I think it's fair to say more people care about GSP than anyone, except maybe Conor. And Conor doesn't bring in the casual males, and very lucrative female demographic, the way GSP does, so he's pretty fucking valuable.

What's he ever done but cut weight, beat unqualified manlets, and participate in a couple of novelty fights?
He isn't even in the conversation yet.
He needs to stop ducking and rematch Aldo, for starters, just like he said he would.

A Conor lose to floyd but win nate 3

B Cnor win to floyd but lose nate 3

Mayweather's last PPV did 300k buys, his stock dropped since the Pacquaio fight. GSP's stock has dropped significantly since he last fought, also all the 189ers don't know who he is, plus he has a boring style. His highest PPV did 950k buys, if he came back he would not be able to equal that, I was being generous when I said he'd do 400k buys.

>>76720189

IF Conor fights in the UFC again after the Mayweather fight, who is he most likely to fight?
Ferguson? or could it be straight to another meme fight and for Tyrones belt?

>>76720230
I think controlling the octagon the way Moroz did (i.e. the entire time) is more important than a last second takedown in the final round of a fight where you were being backed up the entire time

but it's wmma so ya

Diaz/Mcgregor 3 is the only real money fight UFC has atm, unless they can build some new stars and storylines quick. Nate started to hype it on instagram.

>>76720283
Holloway chews him up this time, plus he can't make 145.

Nate is the win-able fight. All he has to do is kick those legs 50 times and have better TDD and cardio.

Tony/Max/Khabib are much harder.

>>76720187
Not him, but I thought PPV was pretty much US only. Do they have it in Canada?

Foreign TV rights can be lucrative and it just happens to be a specialty of WME. The UFC has been trying to break into other countries for years(Cain the Mexican, anyone?) but I think it may be one of the big reasons behind the purchase.

>GSP's stock has dropped significantly since he last fought
Your opinion, backed up by no data.
Unlike Mayweather or ASilva, GSP has done nothing to diminish his legacy so I don't see why you'd say he's dropped.

>he has a boring style.
Cleary you get your info from reading /heem/ not rom having watched him compete.
pic related: it's a split pic how Kos and Fitch looked after fighting GSP.

Do yourself a favour, don't buy intot the meme, go watch GSP's fights and earn your own opinion.

>His highest PPV
He's sold more PPV's than anyone but Conor -- and Conor had the considerable benefit of competing when the UFC was much more popular than it was in GSP day.

http://www.sportsbreak.com/ufc/conor-mcgregor-is-the-biggest-ppv-draw-in-ufc-history-and-its-not-even-close/

>>76720307
Our system is the same as the US. Any fights that are on TV in the US are also on TV here, anything on PPV is also on PPV here. That's why I've always wondered about the numbers, would be interesting to see what GSP did in Canada at his height.

>>76720305
Max got a lot better since their first fight but back then Conor memed on him absolutely, maybe the gap between them still exists.
As long as McGregor doesn't fail at making 145 I'm gonna give him benefit of the doubt and say that he can maybe return to feddaweight. Doubt that will happen tho

>>76720262

>backed up by no data
So you're opining that his stock has gone up? Exactly what proof do you have of that? The man lost fought in 2013, 4 years ago.
>GSP has done nothing to diminish his legacy
He has done nothing to increase it either.
>Don't buy into the meme
He's a decision fighter who plays it safe and that will not bring in any casual viewers.
>He's sold more PPV's than anyone but Conor
What I'm saying is, if he comes back, he's not doing 1 million buys. His announced fight with Bisping almost had negative hype, now that it's seemingly not going to happen, he draws even more negative hype

>>76720388
My bad, I thought you were talking about Cody Garbrandt.

>>76720341
Didn't know that. Officially there are no numbers at all since the UFC doesn't release anything, just estimates that come from that dude that works for Forbes. Maybe you can find a source on how the estimates are calculated.

>>76720206
Mayweather's last fight didnt sell because he was fighting a guy everyone knew he'd dismantle

>>76720348
>maybe the gap between them still exists
Absolutely not.

2013 Max would not have beaten Aldo, let alone Pettis. He has clearly gotten a lot better and he's still 25. Conor will never fight at featherweight again. In fact I don't think he has more than 2 fights left in him (Floyd, then Nate, then retirement)

>>76720418
I am talking about Garbrandt, he would end that filipino

>>76720421
Also cause people had a bad taste from the boring clinchfest Pacquiao fight. How do you go from 4 million buys to 300k?

>>76720440
I could see him fighting Frankie if he were to beat Holloway but beside that i dont see him going back to 145

>>76720415
>He's a decision fighter who plays it safe and that will not bring in any casual viewers.
He still has the largest non-fight fan base in all of MMA.
One of the reasons he's so valuable is that a LOT of women will watch his fights - that's very important to the UFC and advertisers. And he brings in a lot of males who don't watch much or any MMA.
You can love him or hate him, but he's got far and away the highest Q-score in MMA, and that makes him a money machine for anyone attached.

As for Bisping, I don't blame people for not wanting that. For one, people are getting sick of meaningless meme fights, like Conor and Nate/Mayweather. For another thing: Bisping. He's not exactly JJ/Silva level. He's just bigger than GSP, that's the ONLY thing that makes that fight remotely interesting.

>>76720474
My bad, I thought you were talking about Manny Pacquiao.

>>76720483

It took strike force a while to become relevant. They didn't even really start getting serious traction until they did the hw gp imo. Also cross promotion with dream raised interest in the lw division for them. Bellator doesn't have the same kind of talent pool yet that strike force had, but they are building it up and will be building it up quicker if wme keeps letting talented guys walk

>>76721488
they have some good guys now to be fair. bader and davis is a legit title fight at 205, both arguably top 5 in the world

rather than getting ufc rejects, some times they outpay ufc for contracts so atleast it may mean ufc starts to pay its fighters properly

I think they set up the card like idiots but they did 120k buys on rampage v King mo. I don't think they marketed the main event well either. Chael and wanderlei would have made some drama that could have gotten some casuals to buy it but I haven't seen either of those guys do any sort of media

if the MayGoober card had all UFC vs Boxing fights, would the entire UFC roster get btfo in boxing matches? would anyone have a good shot?

>>76721683
Chael doesn't do media because Wanderlei doesn't. I heard people are still worried of Wanerlei is even going to show up to the fight.

>>76720262
I think UFC is hoping to have Tony vs Khabib in September, and assuming nothing fucks up the fight again having the winner fight Conor in December

>>76721726
Conor will fight Nate

It seems that the fighters at Bellator are treated way better, which gives me Pride vibes. Guys like Rory were gushing at how Coker is better to them than White or Zuffa.

What is a sport?

A sport is an competitive athletic event comprised of 2 or more parties who win by reaching a goal

Sports:
Soccer- 2 teams who score by kicking a ball into a goal
Football- 2 teams who score by having the ball reach the endzone
Basketball- 2 teams who score by shooting the ball successfully into the hoop
Tennis- 2 parties (hey fuckstick, this one doesn't have teams, crazy huh) who score by having the other person fail hitting the ball back across the court
MMA- 2 parties who score by outstriking or outclassing their opponent, or win by knockout or submission. KO or submission doesn't void it as a sport, because the criteria of a sport doesn't rely on a scoring system. They just have to reach a goal

Non Sports:
Skateboarding: one person and not 2 parties, not competitive. More of a hobby.
Poker: fits the criteria, but isn't athletic
WWE: Clusterfuck mandrama, not competitive because ts scripted, the goals don't matter because scripted, and hardly athletic, everyones on roids. It's just "entertainment"

Whoever wants /heem/ on /asp/ are just dramaqueens, I don't know why this is on their agenda, MMA doesn't tarnish sports, for the /heem/ culture, its a 4chan general.... but still doesn't belong on godawful /asp/ by default.

Also MMA isn't void as a sport due to violence, theres boxing, and don't be a pussy

Heather Hardy is a trap right?

>>76722622
Ok maybe the whole things not well thought out

Chael looks better than when he fought Tito.

chael looks pretty much like back in the TRT days

Sonnen is 1-4 since 2012 with his last fight a loss to tito ortiz

wand is 3-2 in his last 5, including a win over bisping

this isnt gonna be close

>>76722649
even today Wand would probably beat Bisping up, he has a terrible style for him

>>76722649
and a KO loss to Chris Leben

I really really really hope chael wins he needs a win my man

How does one get the nickname 'Axe Murderer' without murdering people with an axe?

>>76722649
You're probably right. Chael only wins if Silva's declined horribly in the 4 years since he fought last.

>>76722580
Yeah but bellator isn't letting top 10 fighters in those divisions walk. It just feels to me like wme is trying to get by on the UFC name alone, not building up talent or marketing fighters

>>76722722
Who is Eddie Alvarez ?
Who is Will Brooks ?
They are letting their CHAMPIONS walk m8

>>76722722
That's exactly what they are doing, and it's going to hurt them in the long run because they cut potential stars and are afraid to take risks right now.

This whole Conor/Floyd fight is a fiasco. it has zero benefit to MMA/UFC unless Conor somehow wins. Assuming he doesn't UFC might be in for some hard times.

Ferttities were smart to sell when they did.

>>76722771
Alvarez wanted to sign to the UFC, Brooks did nothing but complain and shit on Bellator

>>76722891
Who is Funky Ben Askren?

>>76722917
ONE offered him a salaried position at Evolve Muay Thai and way more money than Bellator were willing to pay him due to him being a boring fuck who'd destroyed every contender the WW division had to offer

>>76722891
