I chose the Masters.
Better find a bar with the fight in Augusta, GA.

Congratulations, Conor McGregor for being such a moron that now Dana has to have second thoughts about not only your next fight but your career and your sanity, in general. Here is the official statement (start 1:30). Looks like this is the end for the Notorious in the UfC.

What an idiot.
He doesn’t need to make a scene to quit fighting?
lol too funny...Conor will be in the octagon by the fall, for sure. Dana is such a cunt
Beginning to wonder if this is publicity stunt...
lol NYPD denying arrest warrant report....
Doubt it. I think he's done. There's limits. McGregor is too big for his britches and now he is fucking up the brand. He's had two ring incidents at Lobov's fights and now this. He called White a cunt last night. It sure seems like he is out of his mind on coke. Not to mention he's been publicly demanding an equity share in the UFC as a condition to fight again. This is like his fifth strike and he is showing wanton disregard for the UFC's brand...he is done. If he wants to fight anywhere else, too bad, the UFC has his rights. Conor thinks he is bigger than the UFC but he is not. If he wants to fight in the UFC again, he'll have to beg. I guarantee his little stunt just cut all future paychecks in half. The next year or more of his career will be spent in litigation.
^^ I hear you & under any other circumstance I would agree 100%, but that fat bald prick likes money more than anything...
Holy shit!! I want to hear the whole saga. Connor had beef with Khabib - over what?? How did it "escalate" to this? How is Artem involved? How are Artem and Connor connected?? Did Connor take his private jet and fly 30 dudes over here for this?? There is more to this story
At the end of the day, nobody said fighters were smart or make great career choices. Connor has worldwide fame and is a god in Ireland, so he'll be ok even if he never fights again and gets sued into (temporary) bankruptcy over this.
here is the original encounter with the GOAT Artem Lobov ;)

Lobov is part of Conor's camp. When he rushed the ring those two times, that was after camp member fights.
How did it escalate to this? Seems like Conor overreacted to his getting stripped and started spazzing out on Twitter last night. He was probably flying high on whiskey and coke all night long and this is what boiled over after a long night without sleep. Since UFC never really punished him for throwing bottles at Diaz at the presser or for his ridiculous antics after the second Lobov fight, McGregor now thinks he is bigger than the UFC. Everything has to be about him. Enough is enough, already.
He really fucked up. It's a major mistake to unintentionally transition into the heel role. Look what happened to Rousey after she started playing the heavy; everyone turned on her the instant she lost. The endorsement money stopped flowing overnight. The phone stopped ringing. The same thing will now happen to McGregor. Now everyone (outside of Ireland) is tuning in to hate watch. Respect is a two way street and I guarantee you every fighter in the UFC now thinks McGregor is an overpaid asshole. Most fans take their cues from the fighters. Chiesa got hurt and messing up another fighter's payday is unacceptable to those guys. The other lightweight fighters deserve their day but McGregor wants to hog 100% of the spotlight. I guarantee you McGregor is persona non grata in the UFC. This is no publicity stunt, the dude has lost his fucking mind. Throwing 30lb dolly through a bus window isn't a publicity stunt, it is aggravated assault. Congratulations, Conor, you are now the biggest asshole in the UFC.
Sounds like Lobov is off the card.
It doesn’t look good for Chiesa to get medical clearance either.

Now that the GOAT Artem is off the card you could be right lol...
Hahahahahaha

Hhahahaha they stayed on the bus and did get punked
McGregor is in jail.
https://youtu.be/y0hAcM3Q2cs
I was wondering when he would crash and burn. Seems his fuck ups are as big as his mouth. He may have blinded Ray Borg. I hope he gets sued dry.
Looks like Max is out too fuck (medically unfit)...maybe if Connor gets out of jail in time he can fight lol
Update: looks like Pettis will try & make weight & fight Khabib for the title. Crazy
I heard an interview with Ortega yesterday, and He said he would be able to make weight.
Pettis has one hour to make weight...and Al Iaquinta is campaigning for the fight with Khabib if Pettis can’t make weight. Connor who haha
Yeah...if by "punked" you mean Kabob just baited his rival into publicly melting down and destroying his own career. Gosh, the shame...ol' Kabob must really be crying himself to sleep. Yep. Huge win for McGregor.
Keep trying, DD, maybe someday you'll get something right. Even a blind hog finds an acorn now and then.
Pettis weighs in at 155.2 he has 2 hours to drop the .02
We gettin a title fight boys woot!!!!
Pettis is #12. Does anyone think beating the #12 on 24hrs notice anoints a new champ. What a joke. More than anything this speaks volumes to how desperate the new ownership is to stay ahead of their immense debt load. The Fertitta brothers could afford to deal with a unraveling situation like this by downgrading 223 to a non-pay event and moving the Rose vs Joanna bout to main event; that's a solid card for a non-ppv. Nope. Not now. The UFC is so badly over leveraged now that the new owners are still desperately trying to sell this goatfuck as a ppv. IMHO, the most ridiculous thing about it is that the #2 (Kabob) and #3 (Alvarez) have never fought. This should simply be moved back a month or two for Kabob vs Alvarez. Nope. When you've already spent the last two years making a mockery of the rankings, why quit now?
"I am laughing inside," the Russian told Helwani. "You broke window? Why? Come inside. If you real gangster why don't you come inside? This is big history gangster place. Brooklyn. You want to talk to me? Send me location. I am going to come. No problem."
Yeah. You keep on choking your paranoia chicken. Why should I give a shit about your fantasies. According to you, this is what winning looks like. Not to mention he's going to lose millions of dollars
Attachment 231447
no , hes going to make millions
you can only see the obvious
conor flew off the handle in similar fashion prior to the diaz 2 fight and he whipped a water bottle and hit some fan in the head
For fucks sake smh

After they review things more, I also wonder if there will be either some sort of racketeering, or assault with a deadly weapon, charges.
As reported, he flew a crew over from Ireland for the purpose of a confrontation. That could be hype, but if it bears out, this isn't just a high spirited confrontation. Kinda like throwing hands at a barbecue not being the worst thing in the world, but if you get the worst of it and decide to run to the shed and get the shovel, you just bought lots of trouble, and if you showed up with 20 associates to cause trouble, it's even worse.
The dolly getting thrown at the bus being the shovel, here.
looks like Tony & Conor might hold to their belts after all...NY athletic commision is saying Paul Felder isn't ranked so shouldn't be able to fight for a title. what a shitshow
This was going to be one of the cards I was most looking forward to until yesterday.
Khabib/Tony has been building for a year, and they both beastly fighters. When Tony pulled out and was replaced by Max, I was disappointed, but intrigued.
Rose/Joanna was one of my favorite fights last year, and I was excited to see how Rose beats Joanna again. Rose suffers from anxiety and after yesterday afternoons debacle, I'm not o sure she will be able to get back the headspace to beat Joanna.
Chiesa/Pettis-Both fighters are looking at trying to get back on the right track, and are both dangerous.
Iaquinta/Felder- I think this might be Felder's last fight, and Al is a Serra-Longo guy, and they're always out for war.
All four fights on the prelims could be contenders for FOTN. They could be a main card on Fox.
I'm really bummed about how all of this has transpired.
Ragin Al Iaquinta for the motherfucking win...dude just became a multi-millionaire over night.
