Conor, he really didn’t like to go out and say, like,‘ I’m back. ‘ I know he said, ‘I’m coming back.’ However, he did not mark any marks. But in the end I do not blame him. I understand why he will come back? “
The former featherweight champion added:
“Everyone in the fighting game is trying to get to the point where he can do enough and live his life and get out and move on, so … We’ll see what happens. I think Oliveira’s is probably the most exciting and most likely to be honest. I can say that Conor ‘s war. Conor’s war would be very interesting. “
