Egg said during the post fight presser that T Ferg vs Conor has to happen next
although we all know Egg will say one thing and do the opposite.

I think its up to Tony now. He has to keep the pressure up. Keep calling out
McGregor in the media. Defend or vacate

I think Mcgregor will just vacate I don't think he cares about the LW belt he is probably only interested in superfights or freakshow fights he might pull off a stunt like fighting woodley and dana will probably make it happen.

I'm not worried about you following throw, I'm worried I'll wake up without a dick if my wife finds out I bet 500 on 1 fight lol

However, you could make the bet and add.... If Mac doesn't fight Ferguson next you win. IMO the Interim Title Holder deserves the shot, otherwise why have the belt in the first place? Mac IS the one who will decide who he fights next, if he picks Nate then it shows he doesn't want to fight The Champ ... Showing he wants no part of Tony, hence Mac loses.. Giving you the win and $500. Then it just may be worth waging that 500

Tony probably an easier fight than diaz style wise

Just because Conor picks a money fight over Tony doesn't mean he wont defend the belt. The guy fights 3-4 times a year and has never backed out of a fight at the last minute after an opponent change like so many others. Some act like he's Jose Aldo and only fights once a year and backs out of every other fight. There is nothing wrong with going for the fight the makes the most money. Having said that Mac could probably command enough to make it worth his while no matter who he fights nowdays. A while back when Kahbib was still in the mix Dana said Mac told him wanted him in Russia. The guy will fight anyone, to fault him for doing whats best money wise just shows the ignorance of some IMO...

Man if he does that I'll be very disappointed yet its a very real possibility thats exactly what he does
