I think Conor McGregor needs to lay off the coke.

Jumping in the ring and confronting the ref the other week at Bellator, then kicking off in a bar in Dublin at the weekend, fighting with the public.

Give him Khabib or Ferguson and bring him back to earth

Imagine what a ****in mare he will be once he retires and loses the rush, he will end up in Jail.

I'd imagine it's **** being a boxer/mma fighter and going for a night out. You're always going to get some dickhead who wants to say they fought Connor McGregor.

I'm not saying he's innocent, because he looks like a cocky ****, but I bet he has to put up with some real ******s.

Hitmans dad he filled in I heard.

If that was him involved in that he might be in trouble with the law, as it was reported earlier that the sports person involved in that incident had attacked other members of the public, who had nothing to do with the relative of the criminal that was hit, inside the same bar.

Although originally when news of that incident broke it was rumoured to be a GAA player that was kicking off and throwing the digs.


Only thing we do know is that he, McGregor, was pulled over in his BMW by the Gardai on Grafton street the other night as there were pics and footage online of it happening.

The Reem has his hands full tonight. Can't wait for this one.

The Gnu is going all the way to the top imo. He's a monster. Not sure if he's ready now, he could knock out Overeem quickly, but if he doesn't and The Reem can take his shots, experience could tell, he hasn't been in a proper scrap yet, he's ko'd his way to here, The Reem should be a better test, if he doesn't get knocked out too.

Sales of horsemeat plummet!

Any MMA affociandos able to explain what's happened to Jose Aldo in the last two years? He looked unbeatable prior to the McGregor fight and has since lost 3 of 4.

The cynic would suggest that the dip in form coincides with the introduction of the USADA drug testing

I think age and the fact McGregor broke him have something to do with it, but yeah, i too would be in the cynic camp.

Holloway is very good though.
Alvarez

[Vermilion]

Max is great, has a face like granite and a diamond chin, one of those you just can't put away.

Good guy too.

That Alvarez scrap was deadly.

Bisping got owned a few weeks ago but even I didn't enjoy seeing his head being drilled into the canvas. Silly decision to allow and take that fight on after GSP.

Well called, an absolutely brutal KO.

That photo!

By the time his head hits his back, he's nighty night.



Stipe, all of a sudden, is being talked about like he's a man with a target on his back chin.
