On the bright side at least they didn't let Pettis fight w Khabib... he lost vs Eddie Alvarez (which was a dumb decision by judges as he won that fight imo) but it only showed that he's kind of idealess vs good wrestlers and Khabib would probably slaughter him
Also how in the fuck does a featherweight fails to make lightweight with many days to prepare?
Apparently, Max Holloway's normal weight is around 175ish lbs so he had to cut almost 8kg in 6 days, which I'm guessing is tough for pretty much anyone. Which brings the question why the fuck does he fight at such a low weight class.. his camp originally asked for a welterweight fight w Khabib
Also this idea khabib started all of this... if the reports a re correct lobov talked shit about khabib in an interview.
also even where i am from if you re surrounded by ~10 russians and all get is a light slap and some trash talk you can consider yourself lucky :D

He could've just done the adult thing - went and talked to Dana about it as Khabib acted unprofessionally instead of gathering a mob and attacking people that have nothing to do with this shit. Obviously explain to Dana that if he doesnt handle it, he ll just have a confrontation with Khabib. I dont see how thats not the first thing he thinks of. Then again he gets hit in the head for a living. Literally, watch his fights all he does is absorb hits in the face. I'm guessing the only reason he hasn't been cut from the promotion is because of Conor
Al Iaquinta isn't even trying to say he has a chance. Dude practically is saying he took the fight to get beat up for 25 minutes for a million dollars. This card is not even worth an illegal stream unless youre a kabibi fan who enjoys watching him pummeling cans to a decision. This whole staged ass big-drama-show is a setup for a giant card with conor and kabib. Dana is getting worse and worse with his lying, resting face.
michael chiesa was more injured here than the "lacerations in the face" description which looked more like an amateur itsy-bitsy blade cut in the WWE.
Rose wasn't injured as reports were conflicting, Conor was sorry, media blowing up about it for days but having caveats trying to justify why Conor did this.
Borg was shook for some unknown reason lol

you guys are deep in the conspiracy.
McGregor is gonna get sued by multiple people on top of the standard prosecution he will face, he probably won't go to jail though. He will get penalized by the sports commission, whichever is in charge of that shit and he will certainly get suspended for a long period - at least 1-2 years. Dana White is not the kind of dude that would put other fighters health at risk for his own profit, McGregor is most likely out of the organization and he should be, thought I doubt Dana is the one in charge of that and there're probably other money seeking investors which wouldn't want to kick him out.
Best case scenario you're looking at, at least 2 more years of Conor not fighting due to court and penalties
The athletic comission penalties is what scares me I hope he doesn't get years cuz I want to watch him fight, but I do hope the UFC and the fighters sue him for damages and he loses millions, he is a disgrace
no way the UFC sues him, they still need him very badly, business is shit right now
Chiesa about to get his biggest paycheck to date :D
This makes no sense; the more the UFC or anyone else can sue Connor for, the more money Connor loses, and the more he is incentivized to fight again to get that money back. It isn't like he can get mad at the UFC and just go fight somewhere else. He is under contract for one, and even if he wasn't the UFC really is the only show in town (hey would make far less fighting for Bellator).

Joe Lauzon gasses faster and faster in every fight I see of him, and he never changes his style.

but wouldn't you do the same?
