Conor McGregor would be a perfect fit for WWE, Triple H?told the UKs Daily Telegraph.McGregor made history at UFC 205 on Saturday night by becoming the first UFC fighter to simultaneously hold world titles in two different weight divisions.Triple H, the?executive vice president of talent, live events and creative for WWE, was ringside at Madison Square Garden to witness the Irishmans second-round knockout of Eddie Alvarez.He could come over, hes got it all, man, Triple H told the Daily Telegraphs Gareth A. Davies. Hes got the personality, the skills, the talk. Hes an entertainer, for sure.What does he walk around at? 180 pounds? I have smaller guys now in the WWE. We have 200-pound guys who are stars. You dont need to be 300 pounds any more.He could do just as well as?Floyd Mayweather when he fought the Big Show. That really worked. Conor could do it for sure.Undefeated boxer Mayweather won that bout at Wrestlemania XXIV in 2008, in front of more than 74,000 people at the Florida Citrus Bowl. The event broke the record for the highest-grossing pay-per-view in WWE history at the time.?There has long been speculation that McGregor, who added the lightweight title to his featherweight belt in New York, could make a similar crossover appearance at the WWEs biggest event of the year.The 28-year-old was asked earlier this summer on a conference call before his UFC 202 rematch with Nate Diaz whether he would consider shifting to WWE in the future, like Brock Lesnar before him.Theres some Dons in that wrestling game, McGregor said. The McMahons are Dons. Triple H is a Don. The Rock is a Don. But the rest of them are p-----s. I havent thought about that, to be honest. Its a little more show business and this is the fight business.Eddie George Titans Jersey . 24 Baylor in a Big 12 clash between teams trending in opposite directions.

He talked to the whole team on Tuesday.Rowe knows Gerald Gallant is well-liked in Floridas locker room, and he wanted to be as transparent as possible on why the coach was let go just 22 games into the season.I came in and I told them, I said `Listen, were not going to change a whole lot. We need to tweak a few things, Rowe said. But if I came in here and wasnt sensitive to that, it just wouldnt work. I love our room. I love our leadership group, and weve got the right guys to help us get going.The good news for Rowe is the Panthers dont have to travel very far. They were on the fringe of the Eastern Conference playoff race heading into their first game since Gallant was fired.We all feel very responsible for whats going on, MacKenzie said before Tuesdays matchup with Chicago. Quite frankly, our performance to this point hasnt been good enough. Unfortunately, you know, Gerard was the end result of that.The message has been sent and we need to be better and we will be, starting tonight.Gallant was believed to be the right guy for Florida after he coached the Panthers to a franchise-record 103 points and the Atlantic Division title last season. He got a contract extension last January that runs through the 2018-19 season, and then-general manager Dale Tallon called him an ideal fit for our group.Not so much anymore. At least from the perspective of Floridas front office.The Panthers dropped to 11-10-1 when they blew a 2-0 lead in a 3-2 loss at Carolina on Sunday night, and that was it for Gallant. The players were informed of Gallants dismissal and the coachs luggage was taken off the team bus headed to the airport in Raleigh, North Carolina. Assistant coach Mike Kelly also was fired.They were pretty blunt, center Vincent Trocheck said.dddddddddddd Made a coaching change, that was it.Gallant, who played parts of 11 seasons in the NHL, mostly with the Detroit Red Wings, then departed the arena in a taxi, drawing criticism from some of the teams fans.It was bad the way it all happened, unfortunately, said Rowe, who was promoted to general manager in May in a front-office shake-up that elevated Tallon to president of hockey operations. It didnt look good, but Ill tell you right now, we respect him and like him and Gerard and I had a good relationship.The Panthers ownership and other team officials rely heavily on advanced statistics, and Gallant was not the biggest fan of analytics. But Rowe, who returns to the bench on an interim basis, made it sound as if he was only planning small changes, beginning with Floridas defensive zone coverage.Really big believer in the D-zone being more area than man on man, he said.Rowe coached Floridas AHL affiliates in Portland and San Antonio before moving into the Panthers front office. He also served as an assistant with the Hurricanes from 2008-11.Hes hard-nosed, old-school kind of guy, said Trocheck, who played for Rowe in the minors. He gets the most of his players by getting them to work hard, make sure everybodys playing the right way.But Trocheck, who liked a handful of pro-Gallant messages on Twitter after his dismissal, said he didnt think coaching was the reason for Floridas disappointing start.Its just a matter of us kind of pulling it together, he said. Got to come together as a group and realize that we havent been playing our best hockey and we have a lot more to go.---Jay Cohen can be reached at http://www.twitter.com/jcohenap ' ' '
