Matt Brown: What the f@$% has McGregor done to get a title shot?
Matt Brown: “I can’t even believe this is an argumen. What the f@$% has Conor done compared to what Frankie’s done? Frankie deserves it. Period.”
Top UFC welterweight competitor Matt Brown appeared recently on The Great MMA Debate podcast, and argued bluntly that Frankie Edgar, not Conor McGregor should be next in line for a shot at UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo.
“I can’t even believe this is an argument,” said Brown as transcribed by Karim Zidan for BE. “What the f— has Conor done compared to what Frankie’s done? Frankie deserves it. Period.”
“I don’t hate that (McGregor made himself famous). More props to him. But when you are talking about title shots – the opportunity of a man’s life – you gotta base it on realistic stats and facts. You can’t base it on this motherf—er is gonna talk and sell some tickets.”
Before McGregor can even be considered, he first has to fight Dennis Siver at UFC Fight Night 59 on Jan. 18 in Boston.
