and he could easily get 90,000 people at Wembley
.....surely if he was fighting in a GMT time zone he would be fighting in Croke Park?

And Anthony Joshua already sold out Wembley, it's not possible to break that unless they renovate the stadium me thinks
He needs to go the fuck away. He’s in the business for all the wrong reasons.He's obsessed with records. He wants to break the attendance record and he could easily get 90,000 people at Wembley for a fight with Ferguson, Khabib, Diaz or GSP.
Besides, how many fighters have actually retired in their 20s and never came back?
Unbreakable record.Most consecutive days as champion without defending..
He can get involved in other business ventures though.There's another very valid motivation for him to come back. He's got 3 fights left on his contract. It is true that he can retire & not honor the remainder of the contract... but then he will never be free to do whatever he wants. He will always be tied down by that contract for the rest of his life.
I know he can never fight again without the UFC, but I also wonder how many clauses are in the contract that would stop him from opening his own promotion or something like that. I would think that alone would drive Mac to return.
Out of interest what other records did he break?
Exactly! He is the anti GSP in almost every way: doesn't defend, not a point fighter, super cocky, loud mouth, non lay n prayer, 'any time any where', etc. If fighters listened to fans, they would never get rich and would all die of CTE. If you look at SBG's fighters, you can see that Kavanagh teaches them to make as much money as you can and get out when you realize you have reached your limit and your body is just being damaged - Pendred, Paddy and Ais all retired super early.He said it himself, "Get in, get rich, get out". And his every action up to this point have done nothing to prove otherwise.
Highest gate was Madison Square. He also has the second highest gate in boing vs May and MayPac was the most bet on event of all time and it also grossed more money globally than any fight - pretty impressive considering he was on the dole a few years ago, did not need decades to reach the numbers that May or Oscar needed to achieve such prominence.
- 13 second KO was the fastest title fight victory
- 8 POTN bonuses in a row is a record
- First to hold 2 belts at the same time
- He's got the highest gate sales vs Mendes & then beat it vs Aldo. Not sure how his other gates have done, but I would suspect he broke his own records again... Most likely at 205
- Most "disclosed" pay (not counting PPV) at a single event & over the course of his career - Likely also the most overall pay as well with PPV money added, especially if the Floyd fight is counted.
- 6 KO/TKO wins in the FW division was a record for a while but Max may have taken that one with his recent string of KO's.
- Highest FS1 broadcast viewers for the UFC vs. Siver. (not sure if that record has been broke or not)

Yes, of course... but if he wants to get involved in some sort of fighting business, I wonder how much his UFC contract could hinder him. He's so young right now there's no telling what he might want to get into... & having the UFC hanging over your head seems like something he would want to nix.He can get involved in other business ventures though.
this. and prediction is that he will be as stupid with the money as tyson was, and will be back on the bread line pretty quickly.He's obsessed with money not records.
