With Dana making Conor rich for doing little more than beating Siver and Holloway, i have to assume established champions such as Cormier, Weidman and D. Johnson must be scratching their heads. What do they have to do to be part of a world tour or have the UFC use a coveted NFL Playoff spot to highlight them?
What this has clearly shown the fight managers and fighters simple; Its better to kiss up to Dana than it is to win.

Watch how fast a guy like conor falls if he does happen to get destroyed by aldo and someone else.

Where is Chael now? He fell for sure
If chael had been blown out by anderson in the first fight he would have fallen a lot quicker
I am saying if Conor is annihilated against aldo like embarrassed he will def fall quickly. If they then feed him to Mendes he is fucked
I agree that it's a bit unfair but from the ufc's perspective they have to strike while the irons hot. They know most people don't last in this sport so they've gotta promote the shit out of people who gain some star power and squeeze as much cash flow out of them as they can. Smart move on their part even if it's not the most even way of playing it
TerrySilver - Where is Chael now? He fell for sureChael has the number one podcast on earth. He recently turned down an offer to replace Howard Stern.
TerrySilver - Where is Chael now? He fell for sureHaha, you're reaching. Chael's fall from grace has nothing to do with him losing.
Chael Sonnen is very close to going broke
TerrySilver - Chael Sonnen is very close to going brokeWhy did you just make that up?
Wait until Conor steps out of line. He will get shit on just like everyone else.
He's on a nickel rocket to stardom right now and loving the ride. Just wait though. Ain't nobody ever tried to move past Zuffa without their name getting dragged through the mud, and Conor is no exception.
Good luck against Aldo kid. Hopefully Zuffa fixes it for him so he can't lose, and I honestly believe that is a real possibility. No matter what though, guaranteed he doesn't leave The UFC with any value to his name.
Zuffa has shown they simply do not allow that to happen. I hope they get out of the game soon.
Muerto -Hey pussy you still there?
Probably has more to do with attracting fans than kissing ass....
So they should try to be a draw.
Gracie/Shamrock/Couture/Silva - No one is immune to the classic UFC retirement package.
Scrappy Doo -Lol!!

Conor did things for himself that they didnt do

Conor works his ass off and takes tons of risks. Conor could never win again and will have done better than 99% of all Mixed Martial Artists.
We live in such an entitled world. Just because someone is a champ that doesn't mean people will all of a sudden care.
Look at the Cain/Werdum promo. It's mostly Rogan and Goldie screaming at you. Do you really think Conor needs help from Goldie/Rogan sound bites? Does Cain have ONE sound bite you could put in a promo?
I guarantee there are few fighters who work harder outside of the cage than Conor. He earns every Penny.
Dana and company will throw anyone under the bus for more $$$$$$...But I think Conor will be gone earlier than most think.

Oh hey, the pedo. You still imagining you're about to score with an 8 year old boy? Thought you were gonna off yourself? You tuck on that?
