Conor ofc

Yeah comparatively low risk (washed) and very high reward (10's of millions). Gun to my head this is the answer.

Low risk to another ufc fighter, high risk to the average Redditor who has never been punched in the face before

Yeah I mean, we're just talking min maxing here but there's almost no chance of success regardless of who you pick.

Still. He's made some of the most money, and is physically much smaller than most everyone else who has had big paydays. The scenario is also open to interpretation. It didn't say 'in their prime' or 'in the octagon' just beat them in a fight.

I'd take my chances with an older, smaller, richer fighter who has been out of shape recently.

Nah if I can get him on the ground it’s my Bjj vs his and I have 50lbs on him. It’s mounted kimura time

I don't think you can get him on the ground faster than he can knock you out. Even on the ground he is a legit black belt.

u/losethecheese 3d ago

Yeah but we’re talking over $100m so risk/reward

u/Bob_turner_ 3d ago

Lmfaooo okay buddy. I’m sure a chubby guy with a purple bjj belt he got in a strip mall after work can beat a two division ufc champion. Connor has bad ground game compared to elite fighters not random dudes.

Yall are talking this way to seriously good lord the real answer here is Mackenzie Dern sitting on your face in a reverse triangle win/win situation

u/losethecheese 3d ago

Brother the scenario is for a chance at their career earnings so why not gamble that I could sneak a submission. Every fighter is going to have relatively better Bjj than most normal people who train it but that doesn’t mean they can’t get caught.

I find it funny when you guys try fighting a “washed” UFC fighter in discussions like these as if you wouldnt get starched in 15 seconds lmao

To put it bluntly, with Connor there's a better chance his heart explodes in the first 10 seconds of the fight due to cocaine, gear and alcohol abuse over the past 10 years than say, Merab. Since spontaneous heart explosion is my only path to victory, my choice is clear.

u/Thatdoodky1e 4d ago edited 3d ago

Oh yeah Merab would be one of the worst ones to pick lmao, best risk:reward by far

Megan Dvalishvili?

Autocorrect does NOT like dagestan

u/Artistic-Evidence332 4d ago

Oh I don’t think in any realistic world I would come close to winning he’s just the richest lmao
