It's his thing, he likes to be gregarious just like Chael, I find it funny but don't take it too seriously.

Personally, I think grabbing the championship belt is crossing the line though. That's not mic skills or being witty at all. In fact I'd say Connor was gotten to during that presser and he just reacted without thinking, grabbed the belt.

He can do the Discount Double Check all day, but championship gold gotta be earned before he can touch it. :win:

the way dana shielded connor after he snatched the gold tells me everything I need to know

body language is revealing:sas1::sas2:

2 things, conor pulls this shyt when the crowd is in his favor

-The run up in boston
-the belt snatching in dublin
Why not try to try these things in brazil since you can go in the trap in brazil :sas2:


Imagine if the Diaz brothers pulled this shyt conor has pulled lately.. Dana would not be calling them the 'hispanics Ali"

Abel Trujillo injured and out of fight with Makdessi. This was going to be a good fight too. 186 is looking worse and worse. Rumor is another fight/fighter is off that card as well. :snoop:

Nick Diaz got a title shot coming off a lose and then he got the GOAT plus a new contract (which paid him more money) coming off 2 straight losses.

Both Conor and Nick have gotten a smooth ride to the title. Nick did get tested, but he lost. Then the UFC gave him a title shot over a very deserving challenger [at the time] in Hendricks .

If its Rampage(who may get blocked from fighting with that viacom lawsuit) just flex the damn card out. They use to do that with Spike. Why don't they do that now?

I think there was an Okami main event that was switch to Spike like 8 years ago

I remember reading somewhere that a PPV card cannot (or is very difficult) to be transferred to TV. I think it's something along the lines of the cable companies (who get 50% of the PPV revenue) not allowing it to happen.
