OK, I'll go through with this but I figured a new thread was in order. If one or more people are interested in some sort of prop bet on the fight, I will bet my hair against cash.
Terms something like:
If I win, I get a reasonable sum of cash.
I lose, I shave my spectacular head of hair and donate it to one of them groups that makes wigs for people with cancer.
As for scoring, I can see two options.
1) Conor wins at least 3 rounds on official judge's cards. (There are 3 judges. So anything between 2 scoring it a draw and one for Conor, or all three for Conor).
2) Three journalists who will score the fight are chosen and their cards are used.

]How much cash I gotta put up vs you shaving your head?[/spoiler]
Hmmm. Maybe we can get a pool goin'.
Just so the stakes are clear, here is the hair in question.![]()
It's probably like 2 feet long or so. Halfway down my back, in any case.
So McG doesn't have to win the fight, he only has to win 3 rounds of it, correct?
If so, I'll take a piece of McGregor. But need full explanation of the bet first, and the amount.

If Conor wins three rounds, I'll grow my hair back.
The difference between fiction and reality is that fiction is supposed to make sense.

LOL
Can I parlay a full head shave, Charlie Chaplin mustache, and a tattoo of the Hindu symbol for peace, life, luck, and good fortune (on the forehead)? Then a secondary bet as to whether you can survive a full year after that.

Ok, Rig. I'll start the pool at $50.
Conor wins.
Conor loses, but wins 3 rounds.
Official scoring, including any result from 2 draw, 1 Conor , counts as a won round.
Keep in mind, you'll not want to just shave it and collect the leavings. There has to be at least 9 inches usable hair, collected like in a ponytail and bound together before cutting it off. My nieces used to do it, so I'm somewhat familiar, but there's a particular way they do it so it can be accepted, and I don't know the details. I think there are hair places that cut it for free/the donation.
