Conor McGregor wasn’t going to miss an opportunity to take his son to Super Bowl LIII.

ESPN on Twitter caught this picture to prove the Irishman was indeed at this year’s Superbowl.

It is good to see McGregor out and about just days after the reports surfaced regarding “Notorious” fathering a child outside of his relationship with longtime girlfriend Dee Devlin.

McGregor just received a six-month suspension from the Nevada State Athletic Commission for his involvement in the UFC 229 post-fight melee. He should be able to return to action as soon as April.

He has already been linked to a potential fight with Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone.

Lesnar and Nelson Both Want to Fight Each Other, So What Do You Say UFC?

(Since Brocktober was a bust, maybe SuperBrock weekend in February will be better.)

Well, Brock Lesnar and Roy Nelson made Joe Silva’s job much easier by all but setting up a bout between each other today. Now all the UFC has to do is squeeze the heavyweights onto a card and we’ll have Lesnar’s first post-title-loss match-up.

Superbowl weekend seems like a likely date, considering Brock is hunting and Nelson is rehabbing his knee, so we’re going to go ahead and pencil it in.

According to Bryan Alvarez of Wrestling Observer/Figure Four Online, Lesnar has asked the UFC if he can fight Nelson next, but the promotion for some reason is stuck on a rubber match with Frank Mir, so it’s not guaranteed to happen.

"I could tell you this for pretty much 100 percent certainty Brock Lesnar wants that fight. I mean, he has asked for that fight and I would presume at some point  that fight is probably going to happen. I think the idea…Dana — as of a couple of days ago at least — had not talked to Lesnar yet, but he was planning on doing it," Alvarez revealed. "I think the first fight they’re probably going to offer [Brock] is a third fight with Frank Mir."

Malki Kawa: Kenny Florian-Evan Dunham Not a Done Deal

Despite Kenny Florian announcing on ESPN’s “MMA Live” last week he had agreed to fight up-and-coming lightweight Evan Dunham at UFC 126 on Feb. 5, that may not be the case just yet.

Florian’s agent, Malki Kawa, told MMA Fighting’s Ariel Helwani on Monday’s edition of “The MMA Hour” that Florian’s announcement may have been premature.

“As of right now, no, he’s not (fighting Dunham),” Kawa said. “I told Kenny that Evan Dunham looks like the opponent for Super Bowl weekend. It wasn’t confirmed because we didn’t know if Evan Dunham was going to be healed in time for that fight, anyway. Then I guess there was a report put out that Evan Dunham was agreeing to the fight, as well. But then (UFC matchmaker) Joe Silva called me and said that he’s got something else that he wants to discuss first.”

Kawa did, however, leave the possibility for the fight open through a vague follow-up.
