Of course.
The only way he wouldn't have, was if he won.
Winner of Ferguson/Lee next.

I think he will too. He can make $15-$20 million in his next UFC fight, and he seems to truly enjoy the competition.
I think he returns... The fact that he didn't call out Paulie afterwards tells me he's
going back to Danus. Why I dont know... He coulda sold that fight right then and there

Depends on UFC pay. Did he shift the paradigm?
75-100 million off this fight.
What can the UFC afford to pay him? He will need to see 10-20 million against relatively easy competition or a lot more money to keep going.
I actually believe he loves fighting. But a son, 100 million, young and healthy? Get in, get rich, get out.
Ego is strong. So is an endless life of wealth and freedom with your family.

I don't think he takes tgat fight. His next fight will be nate, imo. He just spent a year on boxing, so that is the safest fight for him. On top of that, it's the biggest draw.
I think he fights 2 more times. Whether it is boxing or MMA remains to be seen, but there is simply too much money on the table for him to walk away. The guy loves money.
The $100m figure, if correct is taxed. I don't know tax cide in irekand, but since he made that money in the united states, at least 39.6% goes to the US government. Anything above that taxation, if his country has a higher tax, goes to them, then he keeps the rest. $50m is still a lot of money (if ireland takes another 10%). What the ufc gets out of that $100m (allegedly) is something else to factor in. The numbers being reported were the ufc was taking 40% (not sure on whether that was out of the gross for conor's share of the event, or just show mineu), then he has 20% in management fees, whatever trainers charge etc...
He needs to earn some money, poor sod's skint.
No way Dana would like to throw McGregor to his grave just yet. They are going to give him Diaz.
