Urijah Faber: Submissions a reason UFC wouldn't match me with Conor McGregor

LOS ANGELES -- Conor McGregor and Urijah Faber wanted to fight one another in Dublin.
McGregor, for his part, felt he could fight his Ultimate Fighter 22 coach on the Oct. 24 card at O2 Arena, then turn around and meet Jose Aldo Jr. to unify the UFC featherweight title.
Faber, one of the sport's craftiest fighters both in the cage and in maneuvering himself into the right spots behind the scenes, sniffed an opportunity at a potential monster payday, and a fight he felt he could have won.
