The MMA thread

There's nothing new in this story that we didn't already know in terms of the picograms etc.

My point was more the whole passive agressive "hate brigade" stuff. It's a familiar pattern with some things. Like the example I gave if someone dares praise McGregor they're a fan boy or just watch MMA cos of Conor. If someone dares dislike Jones and criticise him for being a drugs cheat it's now a hate brigade. Odd way of thinking that's all.
 
Has anyone tried McGregor’s stuff?
 
Sly dig at Conor ?


That’s a drop the cowboy and let’s do this tweet if ever I saw one :lol:

Ugh the choices, I’d want to see both fights but Cowboy is surely coming up for his derailment he normally has when he is on a good run. Gets him self in spitting distance of a championship shot or something and somehow crumbles at the final hurdle.
 
Oh man, it's gutting to see Fedor lose like that :(. It's been a nice final run for him up until this point with the wins over Mir and Sonnen, but even in the Mir fight he got hurt early on. He doesn't have the chin any more to compete at this level, and he has nothing to prove anyway.

What a proper comedown from seeing Dillashaw, Aaron Hernandez and Broner all get beaten up last weekend.
 
Weird looking punch Bader threw, kinda an overturned jab, you wouldn’t expect it to do that much damage, didn’t look like Fedor was coming on to it either.
 
6 months and 50k fine for McGregor
9 months and 500k fine for Khabib (reduced to 6 months if he gives an anti-bullying PSA)
One year and 25k fines each for Khabib's teammates.
 
Tried the McGregor whiskey last night.

It's lovely stuff IMO!

He is full of shite, but it's a good whiskey. Reminds me a bit of Bushmills and a bit of Teelings, both of which I quite like. Not a patch on "good" whiskeys, but it isn't priced like one either to be fair to him.

Regarding Khabib the chairman said the fine was heavy but the suspension was light.

Yeah I don't think he planned on making the best whiskey, just the bestselling.
 
So when is Khabib defending his belt? (Remember he doesn't fight during Ramadan)

Helwani says he won't fight until his teammates suspensions are finished. So October/November at the earliest
 
The GOAT has left the UFC :(
