So the "money fight" is over! Conor Mcgregor did well but came up short against the legend Floyd maywheather. Well what's next? Lightweight title defense? Will the winner of Lee Vs Ferguson take him on? What about a featherweight return? Welterweight title run? Trilogy with Nathan Diaz? Another boxing fight? What do you think and why?

The winner of Ferguson vs Lee would be my preference. I don't want to see him at 145 or boxing again.

The Diaz trilogy would be fun. I'd only want to see that if the lightweight interim champ can't fight because of injury or something though. 

For all of McGregor's accomplishments, he has not yet defended any title. I hope that is his next priority.

I agree man he's got to defend the belt. I'd like to see him stay focused on a weight.

I'd like to see him defend the belt. Against anyone not named Khabib. **** Khabib's approach to this. Dude never fights, he declines fights when healthy, and then when the guy he was supposed to fight gets another fight; he asks to fight Conor. No. Khabib needs to get active and ******* do something. Ferguson/Lee winner vs. Conor is what I want. I also want the Diaz III fight to happen sometime very soon as well. 

He needs to stay away from 145, and he needs to hopefully stay away from boxing. He may be able to excel to a certain degree in boxing. But he fought Floyd Mayweather in his debut. If he does anything else after that, it's never gonna be anywhere as big. His boxing career has already peaked.

I agree ... with injuries, that missed weight cut issue and Ramadan, Khabib has basically been unavailable (or cancelled fights) for 80% of the year on average throughout his UFC career, then when he's finally available to fight (at least until he gets injured again) he's suddenly calling ppl chicken and pushing aggressively for the only date he can fit into his busy injuries/Ramadan schedule.
Yeah, he's most likely the #1 155er on the planet ... but dude, make it to the cage a bit more often, we've already got a champ that doesn't defend belts, last thing we need is for Khabib to get the belt and go full Cain Velasquez.

Khabib should fight at 155.
