Elsalvajeloco 9,326 Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 Just now, Edwin said: No way the UFC does any of that. Nevada is going to fine Khabib and give him a good talking to a commission hearing. That would be the extent of the punishment. Dana is gonna be mad but he will get over it. He doesn't run the show in that way anymore. Quote I'd be surprised if they didn't try and buyout Danis' contract from Bellator and tried to setup a fight with Khabib, too. Might as well get mini Conor because Bellator will probably get cold on him after he got superkicked and eventually slept. Let him fight one of Khabib's relatives or one of the other 240 Dagestani fighters. If ACB goes under, they can get some of those dudes. Petr Yan is not from Dagestan but he trains there. I swear to god, Yan vs. Gallagher would be the funniest ethering in UFC history. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

They not only enabled McGregors behavior, but marketed the shit out of it to make $. Don’t act shocked when someone else decides to do it as well. I think UFC has been flirting with disaster... what Connor did in New York was disgusting but I think UFC still felt that there's a certain "entertainment" aspect to Connor where all the shit he does is a studio gangsta version of thuggery. Khabib and his boys don't seem fake to me. It's not entertainment with them and tonight they showed it. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Setsuna 193 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Here's my prediction- Going in I was surprised to see the Diaz fight announced as I thought he'd be next for Conor if he lost. Given this show, Khabib gets fined and suspended for 6 months - a year. Ferguson-Mcgregor interim title. Winner against Khabib late 2019. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

A guy I work with said that Connor McGregor was (minus expletives) "walking around like an Irish Lucky Day. Well now he just got shot by El Guapo's men." Props for the 3 Amigos reference but yeah... its kinda on point. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Elsalvajeloco 9,326 Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 There is a reason Chael turned down his act all the way down. Ali Abdelaziz isn't exactly the straightest arrow, but if you're wanna get sociopolitical and call folks rats and terrorists, you better win the fight and proxy fights after it. Chael knew he wasn't about that life and Conor should know he ain't about that life. The streets ain't in him. Link to post Share on other sites

Like nobody can listen to his promos setting up the Fedor fight and take this shit seriously. Now someone you might have to worry about is Colby Covington. He doesn't look to be stopping on his shit and now doubling down with this Trump support gimmick. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

He's just a silly white dude and not silly, walking the line of white supremacist white dude which will get you fucked up bad. Did he say anything insulting about Rampage that could be construed as racist? Because that's a true litmus test. Colby Covington lies about having foursomes with pornstars so how can you take him seriously? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

You guys out here acting like they're in any way comparable to McGregor. He got away with that shit because he makes the UFC a ton of money. These guys don't - so, to UFC, they're expendable.

Fallacy! 1,059 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 This was UFC’s Bret-Austin double turn - except in this case, Khabib is Stone Cold, even though he’s the one turning heel here. He just became the biggest star in the sport. Link to post Share on other sites

Elsalvajeloco 9,326 Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 Since I brought up Houston earlier, I can only imagine if Floyd was still managed by J Prince and Conor said the same wild shit he said on that long ass press tour. Once Conor got stopped by Floyd, the real ass kicking would begin. Bodies of Irish men and their compatriots strewn everywhere in the T-Mobile Arena. Conor wouldn't make it to the Khabib fight. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
