TEMPO.CO , Jakarta - Duel Conor McGergor vs Donald Cerrone akhir pekan ini diklaim bakal menghasilkan US$ 80 juta. Jumlah itu setara Rp 1,1 triliun. McGregor akan melakoni duel di kelas welter non gelar sebanyak 3 ronde melawan petarung MMA veteran asal AS, Cerrone. Duel itu dikemas dalam pergelaran UFC 246, yang akan dihelat di MGM Grand Garden Arena, Las Vegas pada Sabtu malam 18 Januari 2020 atau Minggu pagi di Indonesia. Jumlah bayaran yang disebutkan bintang MMA asal Irlandia itu mengejutkan, sebab UFC sebagai promotor pernah menyatakan bahwa McGregor akan menerima US$ 5 juta atau sekitar Rp 68 miliar dari duel kontra Cerrone. “Saya sangat yakin duel lawan Donald akan mendatangkan uang yang sangat besar. Mungkin akan menjadi yang terbesar dalam sejarah MMA di dunia,” kata McGregor dalam wawancara dengan ESPN.
“Yah, sebutlah angkanya bakal mencapai US$ 80 juta. Saya perkirakan sebesar itu,” lanjut McGregor. Besaran angka yang mencapai Rp 1 triliun itu disebutkan tak hanya dari bayaran duel. McGregor akan memdapatkan persentase dari penjualan siaran televisi bayar per tayang, sponsor, penjualan cendera mata, dan pos-pos pemasukan lain seperti hunian hotel dan pasar taruhan. McGregor bahkan mengklaim bahwa uang yang dia terima dari duel lawan Cerrone lebih besar dari saat menghadapi Khabib Nurmagomedov. McGregor menyebutkan bahwa dia mendapatkan pemasukan total US$ 50 juta atau Rp 683 miliar dari duel UFC 229 kontra Khabib di Las Vegas yang digelar 6 Oktober 2018. Donald Cerrone sendiri disebutkan bakal dibayar US$ 2 juta, atau sekitar Rp 27,3 miliar dari duel kontra Conor McGregor. Jumlah tersebut menjadi rekor bayaran bagi Cerrone, yang dijuluki Cowboy.

Saat itu, petarung Irlandia Utara ini menerima kekalahan dari Khabib Nurmagomedov melalui kuncian di UFC 229, Oktober 2018 silam.
McGregor sebelum ini pernah mengutarakan alasan kekalahannya dari Nurmagomedov.
Menurutnya, situasi di ruang gantinya bersama pelatih-pelatihnya membuat dia tak konsentrasi bertanding kontra petarung Rusia tersebut.
Hal itu telah menjadi pelajaran bagi McGregor untuk tidak mengulangi kesalahan di masa lampau.
Baru-baru ini, dia mengutarakan faktor penyebab kekalahannya dari Nurmagomedov.
LAS VEGAS — The first punch Conor McGregor landed bloodied Donald Cerrone’s nose. The former two-division champion, in his first bout since October 2018, landed a sharp right jab that sneaked between Cerrone’s gloves.
Seconds later came the left-footed kick to the jaw that sent Cerrone, a fearless 36-year-old veteran, reeling.
And then the punches rained down from McGregor as Cerrone sagged to the canvas, the bleeding speeding up. The throttling didn’t stop until the referee, Herb Dean, stepped in to save Cerrone, halting the main event of U.F.C. 246 after just 40 seconds on Saturday night.
IT IS all over in 40 seconds!
Conor McGregor has beaten Donald 'Cowboy' Cerrone in seconds with a ferocious first-round knockout in the Irishman's Octoagon return at UFC 246 in Las Vegas.

Join us in the video player above tonight for a ‘radio style’ play-by-play broadcast of the UFC 246 PPV (pay-per-view) MAIN CARD with LIVE updates, results & reactions in our Live YouTube Video Stream, which will begin at the start of the main card, at approximately 9PM CST.
The UFC is showcasing the return of Conor McGregor at UFC 246 in the Main Event TONIGHT (Sat., January 18, 2020) from inside the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. What better opponent could there be than Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone? He will be entering the octagon tonight fighting out of Albequerque, New Mexico’s BMF Ranch, with a legendary 36-13 fight record; meanwhile, Conor hasn’t had a bout since October 6, 2018, when he lost via Sub-Rear-Naked Choke at 3:03 of Round 4 against the infamous Khabib ‘The Eagle’ Nurmagomedov, after having been defeated in a Boxing Bout by Floyd Mayweather, Jr. via KO/TKO at 1:05 of Round 10 the previous year, so the last time he actually won a bout in the UFC was against Eddie Alvarez back in November, 2016.
Also on the card, is a women’s Bantamweight Co-Main Event, with the #8 ranked ‘Preachers Daughter’ Holly Holm coming off a swift loss to Amanda Nunes on July 6, 2019, she will be going up against #5 ranked ‘Rocky’ Raquel Pennington, who is coming off a win against Irene Aldana back in July, 20, 2019; rounding things out, we will also be treated to another women’s bout in the Prelims Featured Fight between up-and-comer Maycee ‘The Future’ Barber and the veteran, Bloody Elbow’s own, Roxanne ‘The Happy Warrior’ Modafferi... what a night of fights we have to look forward to!
Conor, being the heel that he is, has garnered plenty of media attention this week - calling for a fight against Ferguson in the future, having been reported to be enjoying a 3 million dollar payout for tonight’s fight, getting into it with PETA, there being Rumors of a Title Shot and all while being protected by the UFC PR Machine. Let’s see if he can leave all his legal allegations outside the octagon and fight professionally, the way only he knows how.
You may have your reasons not to watch this event live or shell out the cash for the PPV - so we did it for you. Maybe there is just something more important going on tonight, where you just can’t be in front of the TV. Whatever the case may be, we’ve got you covered! During the entire five-fight main card portion of UFC 246, throughout the telecast, SBN MMA’s Matt Ryan, will engage with the live chat whenever possible. Along with his co-host Harry Terjanian, we will be doing a radio-style play-by-play broadcast of every single important bit of violence. The show is a modern YouTube stream, that will broadcast in the video player above, sort of like a sports talk show/bar hangout meets vlog.
