According to Joe Rogan, Conor McGregor is far away from days of achieving past Pay-Per-View (PPV) numbers. Rogan, who has been a UFC commentator for over two decades, has seen many fighters come and go. Thus, giving him a unique perspective on the sport. He believes that McGregor‘s star power might be diminishing, and his PPV numbers might not be as high as they once were. The Irishman’s last few fights have been less than impressive, and this might be contributing to his diminishing popularity.

McGregor‘s recent losses to Khabib Nurmagomedov and Dustin Poirier have taken a toll on his career. Additionally, it remains unclear if he can make a comeback. His inactivity since his fight against Mayweather has not helped matters. Moreover, it might be affecting his physical and mental readiness for fights. McGregor needs to get back on track, both in terms of his performance in the Octagon and his promotional efforts outside it. It is quintessential if he wants to maintain his status as one of the biggest names in combat sports.
