The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- UFC on NOW: Black Beast

[blackcease]

If you listen to McGregor talk there are small signs there is some friction either there or coming with UFC. He is digging in his heels.

Definitely. He knows his worth and he seems like he's gonna force the UFC to play by his rules as long as he can.


Not gonna lie though, really sucks for Jose but I'm legit happy for this guy. He came out and did exactly what he said he'd do, can't hate on him. I still think 99 times out of 100 he doesn't catch Aldo like that, but more power to him.


Happy to see Rockhold get it done too, I hoped he could do it but I know nobody thought he was gonna run through Weidman like that. This is like the year of the underdog in these UFC title fights man.

He has all the leverage right now though so he's taking advantage like he should

I'm not going to lie, I wasn't a McGregor fan before this fight, but this presser made me one

This is what happened with me after the Mendes fight . Still wanted Aldo to win here but damn you can't hate on the dude

I was so hype after McGregor got the KO I almost passed out.

Conor throwing jabs at the lightweight division

 

[rolaholic]

He really directed his own press conference

 

[Mr.Guy]

Like I said earlier con is the Mayweather of UFC. He's going to break all of floyd's ppv numbers.

This. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it

Dude said "this is the last question, we need you guys out of here because Conor's coming in 5-7 minutes"

Problem is, he doesn't. If he rustles Dana's jimmies enough, he can be out the door quicker than Bones.

So he's going to break 4.6 million buys set by Mayweather vs Pacquiao huh?



HMU when a UFC event does even 1.7million buys, best they ever done was 1.6 by Lesnar vs Mir UFC one hunnid.

They just had 2 of their highest profile champs go down in a matter of weeks,he's undisputedly the #1 guy there right now. Bones messed up on his own,Connor has a ton of leverage as the face of the company if he can stay on course.

Anyone catch aldos corner talking **** to connor when he jumped on the cage to celebrate immediately after the ko...i'm sure gifs will surface or video

UFC threw him under the bus at 151. The relationship was long strained before the hit and run accident

 

[cashbanks]

Thought Conor would lose but you hit the snooze button on somebodies chin like that and it's a wrap.

Crazy night Weidman got that work.

 

[HEATHEN]

The UFC always alienates their golden gooses, only a matter of time. White has beefed with virtually all of 'em.

 

[rolaholic]

They also had a few golden goose's around that time not just him

 

[g money 87]

Frankie gon have a field day with conor, he uses movement, angles, footwork so conor gon have to figure out sumn else with the whole basic movement thing

While some of that is true, the UFC brass doesn't like to be pushed and would straight up drop him if they wanted to. They can build another star pretty easily.

You like daags?

The guy was coming in full force it don't take a big shot to hurt em

Props to conor but I hate that guy

MW division in shambles, nobody wanna see romero, give him winner of belfort/silva

 

[af1 1982]

Exactly, they've proved time and time again that these guys are replaceable

Hell they already grooming PVZ and sage northcutt. Y'all think it was a coincidence they were on the same card. HELL NAH

Yep, the Sage Northcutt hype is already building.

Nah pleighboi, my girl Rose Namajunas got that juice now .

 

[Mr.Guy]

Yep, the Sage Northcutt hype is already building.

Is he any good?
