CONOR MCGREGOR'S COACH DOESN'T WANT HIM ANYMORE
Conor McGregor is facing another problem, this time his coach and friend John Kavanagh. John, released a statement that he doesn't want to coach Conor McGregor anymore if the fight is not according to what he wants. He want Conor to fight Khabib or Nate Diaz. Nate Diaz is a perfect fight for Conor, a trilogy between these two elite fighters can set a world record not only in MMA but it can also break the highest PPV record in boxing.
John Kavanagh is always pushing Conor McGregor to fight Nate Diaz because to him it's the fight that makes sense and makes a lot of money. "Why will Conor fight what UFC had told him? Nate Diaz and Khabib is the fight that makes sense" - John
Conor is itching to fight Khabib Nurmagomedov but the only problem is Khabib was suspended for nine months. Nate Diaz on the other hand had some issues with the UFC and wants 30 million dollars if he will fight Conor for a rubber match, something that Dana White isn't happy about. And also, Nate Diaz is the type of fighter who is very hard to deal with, his brother Nick is even threatening UFC that he will leave and go to Bellator instead if they keep low balling him.
According to sources, John Kavanagh and Conor McGregor already had some misunderstandings before the Khabib fight that is why Conor is not so motivated while fighting Khabib. Some people said that it's just an excuse but the way Conor moves, there is really something different on him which most people exactly don't know.
We all know that Conor McGregor is the boss of the Straight Blast Gym in Ireland even if John owns it, Conor is the type of guy who doesn't take commands from nobody. According to Conor's teammates the two are still talking to each other and going out for a coffee.
John Kavanagh is a strict coach and also earned a lot of money from Conor's fights, he is already a millionaire and doesn't mind if Conor leaves the SBG.
"Me and Conor will always be friends, I like him, he helped me a lot if I have money problems but the thing here is... things are going out of control, the team has no direction anymore and that is why Rody his boxing coach left, we don't know what is next, the team is completely unmotivated" - John
On the other hand, Conor McGregor is very quiet about his plans and not revealing his next opponent. He is leaving everyone clueless, he is just posting a few tweets on his tweeter account and sometimes giving small footage of his training.
Experts are speculating that Conor might not fight again and his days in UFC are numbered. But we all know that Conor is not fighting for the money, he is a real fighter and will never give up just because of a one sided defeat against Khabib. It runs in his blood, a true warrior that is very outspoken of his ideas, and if it is true that Conor will not comeback again... the UFC is in big trouble.

MAX HOLLOWAY OR KHABIB NURMAGOMEDOV?
It's official, Max "blessed" Holloway replaced Tony Ferguson to fight "the eagle" Khabib Nurmagomedov. Good thing that Max was able to save the card because a lot of fans got disappointed when Tony pulled out because of a nasty injury.
This is probably the shortest time table for a fighter to prepare. Max Hollloway has only six days to prepare against a beast opponent in the name of Khabib Nurmagomedov. Khabib is so confident that he can beat max, according to him.. he will give max a hard time for five rounds, that's if Max can last that long. Khabib is pointing out that Max has a very short time to prepare for him and that Max is only looking for a lucky punch,
We all know that Max's best strategy is to tire his opponents out and make them quit, Khabib is so confident that Max will not be able to do what he has done against Aldo, Pettis and any other opponents against him, he said that he prepared for this fight for three months and Max is only drinking beers and travelling last week so Max has no time to prepare for this fight.
According to Max Holloway, he is prepared and ready to take the title, he said that he is fighting for legacy not money, Khabib is always pointing out that Max is only fighting for money and there is only a slight chance that Max can beat him, he said that Max Holloway is not ready for this fight.
Khabib is an outstanding wrestler and he can take anyone down, he has a relentless cardio, his pressure is suffocating but we all know that Max Holloway loves pressure and he has an outstanding cardio too, we will see on UFC 223 who is the real king of UFC, if Max Holloway won this fight then he is the first fighter who have two championship belts who were able to defend one of his belt. Conor McGregor was able to win two belts at the same time but hasn't defended any of his belt.

5 MATCH UPS THAT SHOULD HAPPEN IN UFC
We all have dream match ups in MMA, there are some fights that should happen no matter what the situation is. There are some situations where the fight cannot happen, dream fights and mega fights are really hard to see because of fighters' issues or needs. Fans are still hungry to see these fights and these fights should happen while there is still some time.
1. JON JONES VS. BROCK LESNAR - we all know that Jon Jones keeps on calling Brock Lesnar's name, this is a dream match up for every MMA fans in the planet. Two very good wrestlers, Brocks size is a huge advantage but Jone Jones' technical skills can play a different role in the fight. We all knew that both have steroids issues and it's hard for this fight to happen. All we can do is dream that both fighters someday will be tested clean.
2. CONOR MC GREGOR VS KHABIB NURMAGOMEDOV - Conor is the best striker in MMA and Khabib on the other hand is the best wrestler. Two have huge fan base in the world, this fight can possible be the best record in pay per views. Conor has very huge demands that's why it's not happening yet, on the other hand.... Khabib let everyone know that once he had the belt he will not let Conor challenge him that easily, he wants Conor to work for it and beg for it which will never happen. The fighter's pride is getting on the way.
3. ANDERSON SILVA VS GEORGES ST. PIERRE - Anderson Silva is the most unpredictable fighter on the planet, he has good ground game too, he is the most technical striker in the MMA and very good in counter striking, his long arms and legs will play a huge advantage. On the other hand... GSP is the best wrestler in his division, his take downs are almost perfect, he even take down Michael Bisping easily in their fight. This fight will be the most anticipated fight in MMA history.
4. TJ DILLASHAW VS DEMETRIOUS JOHNSON - If you want to see a very technical, fast pace and cardio fight.... this is the fight to watch. Two of the most underrated fighters in MMA, TJ's fighting style is slowly catching up and his level is almost the same as Demetrious'. The only problem is the money, Dana White is not interested in giving DJ some pretty big cash, I don't know what's wrong with him.
5. CYBORG VS RONDA ROUSEY - I'm pretty sure that Ronda Rousey will return one day because she had an unfinished business with Cyborg, they two have some silent bad blood in the past and I know that they want to settle it on cage.
