UFC 226
Very strange all round

[meffin]

Boxing in 4oz gloves would, but still boxing

Im pretty sure the UFC will now be desperate to make the Khabib fight after all this. Doesn't matter that their golden boy will get annihilated anymore

One of the fighters got glass in his eye, McGregor is going to be sued into oblivion, the ****ing assbag

Surely there must be some angle to this, everything he does is to serve some bigger picture where he can make more moula. The guy is as classless as you get but no way he did this on the spur of the moment - it all felt a bit WWE

Him and 30 headaballs broke into the press conference centre and just starting running amuck, the bus pulling off with the fighters including khabib was pulling off and his boys attacked it. He put a ****ing metal fence through it and the glass shattered in a fighter face. I have been a long time fan of Conors but he has crossed a major line here. Honestly, he is an embarrassment if this is how he makes his money now basically being a violent Rick Flair good luck to him.

As I fighter I respect him hugely but I have said since day one Khabib would eat his ****ing lunch inside the cage. Conor is mothing off meanwhile Khabib be like 3.34 in , Conor is a bad man, Khabib is a stone cold killer.

Took the attention away from the farce that was UFC 223 that's for sure.

Holloway out of 223. Drs orders apparently. Weight cut was dangerous.

Anthony Pettis will now fight Khabib

Although I suspect coke has plenty to do with it atm. Could that be the reason he hasn't fought in a while - he'd fail a drugs test?

Why is coke always the answer to things we don't understand on EST (e.g. Clyne)? He's just a ****ing knacker.

Warrant issued for McGrgor in New York after he turned up unaanounced at a UFC event and started throwning things at vans transporting fighters and officials and he was seemingly behaving like a scumbag

Chunks of it was caught on camera.

I do my best to get on board with the supercockiness of McGregor and the showmanship as brilliant business and all the rest of it but in the end I just can't stand him. I cringe at the thoughts of him being a national hero or as being in some way representative of some new wave of Irish confidence. I suppose I should take my own advice and accept that it's not either/or and that he's both brilliant and a total scumbag.

Has Pettis been confirmed?

Nope. Apparently that fights off now

Khabib Vs Paul Fielder now?

EDIT -. Nope not Fielder either. NYC comission has refused to sanction the right because Fielder isn't ranked.

What a ****ing shambles.

Given how this card has fallen apart White and the UFC were deffo in on McGregor's wee stunt yesterday
