didn't they use the dolly attack in the promos? shyt if the commissioner punch was at the khabib fight they'd useThe discrimination towards Khabib is blatantly obvious. What are they holding his purse for? Jumping the cage? Didn't Conor do that with Jose? I even saw it in a video package leading up to this fight!
This is why the UFC doesn't see a dime from me.
The bigotry needs to stop. The double standards needs to stop. IDC if Conor's dirt was in Brooklyn, Ireland, or wherever. He did far worse and Vegas still sanctioned him for this fight. Pay Khabib and keep it moving.
I thought this was Dana's idea of bring Conor back down to earth. He still has leverage, but not like beforeDana and the UFC ain't shyt, but they're not stupid. Conor is a star and had a good amount of leverage I'm assuming - with him leaving the UFC and fighting Floyd and getting that big pay day. I believe around this time and after the Alvarez he was clearly trying to do bigger things. The man was talking about part ownership of the company, lashing out at times during interviews and press conferences. Even after the Alvarez fight inside the cage I remember him asking "Where's my belt's, cheap muthafukkaz!" and occasionally he would disrespect them in interviews and was even talking about never fighting again. When someone who's trained that hard to get to that spot and is in the prime of their career's is talking retirement at time's it is usually because they're not happy with they want more. They had to humble that man and bring him back down so they can pimp him back out. I think if Conor is alright with them making a mockery of his career and collecting those checks, that's cool. But if he wants to be taking seriously, he can't be huffing and puffing every fight. The UFC is setting him up to not be taken seriously and devaluing his worth. When they're done with him they will do what they did with all their old stars. By mockery of his career I mean, every fight is the same regarding the way it's promoted. Conor is the loud superstar, who makes outlandish claims gets in peoples faces, attacks their families etc etc. That's not sustainable.
In other news, congrats to the champ.
27-0
...and the Conor apologetics tour begins.
Either way...organized crime is nothing compared to a dude that has a paramilatary group and a green light from Kremlin.
Give it time...maybe well get the "based on a true story" movie
Would be a great idea for a movie premise.
you ever have your neck cranked before? i'm gonna assume not otherwise you wouldn't have said somethin stupid like this.
CONNOR QUIT.
HE DIDNT EVEN HAVE HIS NECK.
THats fine bro you can love it or not, that doesn’t negate any factsI grew up boxing,and u love it to death
but mma during the years Anderson’s Silva, and Jon jones were on there runs was amazing. The ufc had a good solid 8-9 years of great events with super packed cards.
Boxing over the last two years has had much better fights hands down
He still quit. He gave up position. He was ready to quit. Paulie was right.you ever have your neck cranked before? i'm gonna assume not otherwise you wouldn't have said somethin stupid like this.
