UFC Hall of Famer Bas Rutten believes Conor McGregor could co-promote with the UFC if he chose to do so.
When Conor McGregor held court in a separate post-fight press conference at UFC 194, it became clear t fans and pundits alike that they were dealing with an entirely different character. McGregor, dressed in a maroon suit, charmed those in attendance and even hinted subtly that he could co-promote with the UFC as a separate entity.
That trend continued at the UFC 197 press conference, as the proceeding were delayed until McGregor, this time dressed much more casually, arrived to hand out sharp-tongued quotes to whoever was listening.
