I've been waiting for someone else to bring it up. I think McGregor is one away from the title now.
The fact that he was the second highest paid fighter on 178 shows Dana is high on him because he's created such a hype around himself and Dana considers himself Irish, as does half of Boston, so there's a little love in there.
I think a title shot vs Aldo in Boston could sell massive numbers. 20,000 in the TD Garden. Aldo seems to do one fight Brasil one fight Usa so assuming he beats Mendes in Rio then it could be assumed a title fight in the US next year is next for him and McGregor in Boston would make sense. I think Mcgregor will get the winner of Swanson and Edgar as a title eliminator.
Have to feel for Porier a little. The fight went exactly as Conor said it would which must be pretty disheartening. People said he was the first real challange McGregor had face and he brushed him aside.
