The next round of MMC is coming soon and we can't wait to see who wins this one, as the stakes are high! We're going to watch UFC 246 online, so let's see what's the best way to do this!
Who's going to participate in this showdown? Well, the headlining fight puts McGregor and Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone face to face.
Conor McGregor is an Irish MMA fighter and boxer and he's already a former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion. He's currently ranking 13th in the UFC pound-for-pound rankings and 4th in the UFC lightweight rankings. McGregor has 25 MMA fights under his belt, 21 of which were wins, 18 by knockout.
Daniel "Cowboy" Cerrone comes from Denver, Colorado, and he's an MMA fighter and former pro kickboxer. He's currently ranking 5th in the UFC lightweight list. Out of 50 MMA fights, he won 36, out of which 10 were by knockout.
While the stats are generally in McGregor's favor, that doesn't mean Cowboy will just take a beating. If he manages to win, McGregor gets a shot at the lightweight title, which is a big move considering that he's been in somewhat of a retirement period throughout 2019.
Of course, while these two may be headlining, they aren't the only ones fighting on January 18th. Here are all the match cards for the night:
