He said:
” With that Conor fight, I will tell you all the time, you know we on a short list with that you know. But first thing first we got Volk. We see you know, with all this Conor talk and saying whatever he never committed to coming back he never once said he’d come back and rightfully so he shouldn’t. Conor is what everybody wants to be, everybody wants to get in this fight game, you know. Make the money and then save your chickens. I wouldn’t even blame him if he didn’t wanna comeback.”
