That’s ridiculous. You’re the parent that gets mad their son gets beat up after he fricks with a kid for a year relentlessly. Conor is a bully and he ran into a monster that ended him. He poked the bear and then everyone acts like he’s an angel afterwards.

You should do some research. If I'm not mistaken Khabibs wife was on the bus.

This is some next level WWE chit. Go back and watch the last round. Conor gave Khabib a nod right before the final take down. Then all of the bs afterwards. Then of course Dana White doesn’t present him with the belt and now theres a possibility that Khabib is suspended and stripped of the title. It all sets up Khabib v McGregor 2. As soon as I saw the head nod, I knew the jig was up.

They get paid and setup another payday 6 months to a year from now at MSG.

You couldn't pay me to watch a big time fight (boxing or UFC) in Vegas. I'm not trying to get knocked out.

as I said.. I'm not a UFC fan... I don't give 2 shits about Conor... did he deserve to get his arse beat? I don't know nor care

I do however have dealings with crowd/event safety... and that's how I'm looking at this

You think Dana white and the owners of UFC would risk everything they own by setting something like this up?

Surprise surprise.

You do realize that Dana White and Vince McMahon met years ago about how to "promote" the brand (ufc)?.... soon after UFC had Cain and dos Santos on fox (I think) free TV to help hype the brand much like wwe(f) did in the 80s with Saturday night's main event. It started before cain vs dos Santos with Tito and chuck but Dana didn't have the promotion skills that McMahon does.

How about when Conor threw shite at press conferences? No concern for those fans? How about when he jumped over the cage and went after Aldo? He’s done sooo much shite that I just can’t have any sympathy whatsoever.

Yeah, I don't buy the conspiracy theories at all. If it was just Dana having beers with friends, maybe. But William Morris Endeavor and IMG bought the company for 4.2 billion dollars. There a huge contracts with Fox. They want drama, but not this or the bus incident.

He seemed tired after the first round. Usually hes high energy and it just didn't look like him

I’m amazed that y’all think he would set this up. Vegas would pull UFC’s license immediately if they felt that it was set up. We aren’t talking staged wrestling here, this is sanctioned fights that would carry extreme consequences for an incident like this.

I think Dana White and the UFC are about making money and helping make fighters money. And you know the next fight will draw just as much if not more ppv buys. Yeah I do think they would do something just like this.

Like Dana White just said “We’ll see how this thing plays out”

Not only that, I think Khabib is a legit crazy person

Cormier tweeted that all of the family and religion shite talking was deeply personal to Khabib. He snapped, 100%.

Vegas is about entertainment and makong money, maybe the fight wasnt staged, but everything else was.

People on here that says this was set up have no idea about how this works. The wrestling world (wwe) and ufc and two totally different worlds.

I think that he could deal with Poirier, Ferguson, or Cormier (let’s just assume they would actually fight) for years and never have an incident.

Conor is a different story as not everyone as the mentality of Mayweather when it comes to Conor’s ideas about promoting a fight. Especially not a Muslim from Dagestan.

I wonder if Trump will talk about this. My guess is he won’t since he UFC is likely too new school for him.
