Since Dana fricking White said he’ll have issues with the NAC, I’ll go with him

I’m not a huge mma fan, but for a guy to jump out of the ring with no regards to innocent bystanders is way over the line. A year suspension should be the minimum for the Khabib. His teammates that went after Connor should all be arrested on assault charges. People saying this is good for the sport isn’t thinking logically, if one person sneaks a weapon in there, then this thing could’ve turned deadly.

This Ferguson dude probably should retire. Listening to him talk, he’s obviously had a few screws knocked loose

I say this entirely seriously. If Khabib's isn't ultimately paid for this fight, there is a non zero chance that Dana White doesn't live to see 2019.
ETA: Or NAC members.

No. As soon as he hopped the cage and touched somebody he was done. At this point imo the debate is how long he will get.

He has been crazy for a long time. He's going to be a problem for Khabib or Conor or whoever he fights.

Dana has confirmed that Conor has been paid.
Khabib’s pay has been withheld. Take that however you will

You do realize these people beat other people's asses for a living, right lol.
They all have loose screws.

I'm a complete neutral... I don't watch UFC at all... I hardly know McGregor all that much and couldn't pick Khabib out of a police line-up with a gun to my head
this incident has caught my attention and that's why I'm here
Khabib and his side definitely deserve a stiff penalty for this incident b/c it put the UFC in a terrible spot when it comes to liability issues with fans... meaning ticket-purchasing fans
yes Khabib only went after a dude in McGregor's corner... but once he's outside the cage... it becomes completely uncontrolled and puts innocent people at risk of being injured... just look how close Khabib comes to the crowd when he jumps after bleached dude... he's within 10 feet of the front row of fans... KO a fan on accident and that's an incoming lawsuit
I'm speaking about this incident and this incident only in a vacuum... the bus incident means nothing to me
once you put innocent, ticket-paying fans at potential risk of injury, you get a very severe penalty (stripped of title, long suspension or ban)

A bus full of UFC fighters and innocent women. You Conor apologists are pathetic.

Here is the conversation with Dana and Khabib after the fight.

quote:
Nurmagomedov, who defended his belt successfully for the first time, was livid at the end of the fight and demanded to be given his title. After several minutes, UFC president Dana White approached Nurmagomedov and told him why he would not be getting his belt. He said: "If I put this belt on you, people will lose their shite and start throwing stuff in The Octagon... Other people will get hurt."

UFC will love the PR. Las Vegas is who will put the screws on him

But we keep saying Conor just injured other MMA fighters. But let's be totally honest here, they were pretty darn innocent bystanders who had absolutely nothing to do with Conor's beef, and 1(maybe more?) were injured enough to have to be pulled from that card. That's some pretty majorly fricked up shite there too, certainly on the Khabib level IMO. I mean Conor fricked with their livelihood, and not just their ability to make money, people could have also seriously suffered long term injuries from his actions, but guys here say Khabib should be banned for life but Conor basically nothing from UFC? That's absurd.
We also know there was at least the bus driver, maybe more innocent folks on that bus, right? What's the real difference?

Yea, we can all speculate on what the UFC will do, but once he jumped into the crowd it turned into a bigger issue. This is over the UFC's head at this point.
Posted on 10/7/18 at 1:28 am to McCaigBro69
Yeah man.... I trained for a while years ago and there was a few guys in my gym that..... I'm not saying were off.... but would have zero problems kicking the life out of a person.

as I said... the bus incident means nothing to me
HOWEVER
the people on the bus are probably all people the UFC higher up know personally, know how to deal with closely, and could assist them quickly person to person
Joe Blow in the crowd is none of that

Now it’s spilled out into the streets of Las Vegas, not that Vegas is squeaky clean, but this is a ridiculous night. This is everything that the sport doesn’t need.
