”200” Conor McGregor Predicts Disappointing PPV Sales for UFC 304

Conor McGregor has predicted disappointing pay-per-view sales for UFC 304. The event will take place in Manchester in July this year. It was recently revealed that the card will be headlined by a welterweight championship matchup between Leon Edwards and Belal Muhammad. 

Many people are unhappy with the headliners and believe that it would not make for a good pay-per-view sale, including McGregor. During a recent live stream, McGregor suggested that both Edwards and Muhammad are boring fighters.

Further, Conor McGregor jokingly suggested that the UFC 304 event won’t even cross 200 PPV buys. He said:

“There’s too many decisions going on now with that Leon [Edwards] fella. Leon Edwards loves a decision.”

He added:

“And then he’s fighting another f***ing decision guy, your man Belal [Muhammad]. So, not great times in the welterweight title picture. 200 [PPV] buys, not even.”

Why was Conor McGregor absent from fighting?

Conor McGregor was last seen inside the UFC octagon back in July 2021 in a trilogy bout against Dustin Poirier. On the night, the Irishman suffered a nasty leg injury. 

The injury kept him out for over a year before he was declared fit to fight last year in 2023. It was suggested that McGregor would take on Michael Chandler following the completion of their TUF season. However, he failed to enter the USADA testing pool in time for a fight in 2023.

The regular delays in his return led to many wondering if Conor McGregor would ever fight in the UFC again or not. However, it has been confirmed that McGregor will fight Chandler at UFC 303 this year.

The bout will close off International Fight Week and will be a five-round main event. Moreover, the fight will be in the welterweight division. That said, there is a lot of anticipation surrounding the fight, and it will be interesting to see how McGregor does upon his return.
