The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- Cannonier, Imavov, Reyes, Rosas on NOW

.... so why couldn't Borg fight?
And they said Cheisa wasn't fit for that?.... NY commission is wack.

Borg had glass in his eye... A facial laceration usually scraps a guy to fight... Didn't see the extent of Chiesa's cut either... A dolly is no joke... 100% steel coming at your face through glass has to be crazy
 
After yesterday every precaution is going to be taken. UFC security clearly can’t protect everybody so why bring that idiot to Brazil
 
Conor will be back before anyone knows it, either for the LW title or the WW title

Regardless, UFC brass were hopeful they would be able to finalize a new deal with the Irish superstar and thus announce his long-awaited return at the 25th anniversary press conference Friday night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.

In fact, once Tony Ferguson was forced to withdraw due to a knee injury from his UFC 223 fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov on Sunday, a plan was floated to remove Khabib Nurmagomeov from the card and have him face Conor McGregor later this year.

The UFC ultimately decided against that idea and moved ahead with booking Max Holloway vs. Nurmagomedov.

Once that fight was booked, another plan discussed was to book Conor McGregor vs. Rafael dos Anjos for the interim welterweight title in the spring, though McGregor and the UFC had to come to terms on a new contract first.
 
Was gonna open up a boomerang shop during fight week. Oh well. Onto the next scheme.

RDA beat you to it!

The clearer footage of Conor going mental on the Embedded episode is just scary, which sane person who has an infant child would do this.

If I'm being honest. After watching embedded, if he left after banging on the windows, I would have had made respect for him. Just went a bit to far.
 
That whole really looked like something out of the WWE. McGOAT definitely let his adrenaline get the best of him.

That's a bold move. I think RDA would be a MUCH tougher out at 170 than 155. He must be cutting from 200lbs these days.
 
I am now convinced that this was a set up gone semi-wrong ... hearing someone say mid "attack" that, "you're gonna go to jail" then cutting away to Dana saying Conor is going to jail, smells like BS ...

This was all to take the spotlight off of the fact that a card had 2 separate main event opponents get canned ... What a colossal crock of **** that we don't get to see Max fight ...
 
Connor and his hooligans was crazy. He’s been involved in two ugly incidents. He should definitely be fined if he ain’t going to do jail time.

Borg and Chiesa should definitely sue him for loss income due to the dolly through the window. That card is cursed. Should rename it UFC 223 “Can’t Get Right.”

Did any announcements come out of the 25th anniversary presser?
