Listen to “Full Ep: Showtime’s Barry Tompkins & Steve Kim of ESPN” on Spreaker.

“You know, I’m gonna be bold. I say that it happens next year in 2021,” Kim told us.

“I’ve actually been told that’s the plan. Now, look, Manny has a way of changing his mind quite liberally, but there’s a reason why he signed with this organization (Paradigm Sports of L.A.)… Look, the ‘M’ in Manny stands for ‘Mercenary.’ He wants to make the biggest score…. He’s probably searching now for events that can bring him 9-figure paydays.

What else is out there that is considered relatively safe, that could procure that type of payday. From a theoretical standpoint, it could be Connor McGregor.”

At this point in time, any fight that’s scheduled is one to watch.  

But no one really asked for Conor versus Manny.
