We've got some reports coming in, so I want to kinda address them.

I know it's difficult to talk about yesterday's events without criticising Conor's behaviour. He acted like a thug and it's factually correct to point that out. IMHO he also appeared to be coked out of his mind but I guess that's conjecture. He also previously climbed into a cage and shoved a referee, so this isn't an isolated incident.

What I want to do is ask people from both points of view to be a bit understanding of our system here. Please try to to refrain from calling a Conor a piece of shit and other excessive insults; we have a no fighter bashing policy here. On the flip side, he acted poorly and we have to understand and expect that he's going to get called out on it, so please give that consideration before hitting the report button.

Thanks :)

Hey @conor mcgregor nut hugger I think the last line is meant for you lol
Just kidding Leigh @Leigh , I'll tone it down

Just to make sure I understand
It's ok for us to say he acted like a child and should have handled it in a much better way and then point out how we think it could have been handled different
Or say that he acted like a moron, just no personal attacks like calling him a pussy or shit like that right?

We can still make jokes about him having to defend artem and shit right?

Also is it ok to say that it was a bitch move to do that with women on the bus?
Asking about this one because I don't think it's fighter bashing since it's not calling him a bitch, just saying that decision in particular was a bitch move

Just want to make sure we can still discuss what happened but don't want to put you guys in a tough situation

Thanks man

Conor either hit the wrong window or they plexiglassed the wrong window.

Script went horribly wrong. But it worked anyway; everbody's talkin' UFC again...

Part of a text message convo with my younger brother this morning. He's the definition of a casual MMA fan:

Yeah I mean, the wrestlers smash plexiglassed windows in limos all the time in those backstage WWE promos.

No one ever gets hurt. Somebody fucked this up and it probably wasn't Conor.

Are you serious? What’s this? the Nostomo era again?

What’s next? Don’t make religious threads?

Stay on topic on the off topic section?

Mate, you can’t afford that level of diplomacy here.

Calling Conor a piss of shit is no fighter bashing. 6 fighters lost a pay day cos of his antics. Am sure they have bills to pay and families to feed and mortgages to pay.

Don’t listen to this mod.

If any body gets banned for calling Conor a piss of shit I will cancel my no forum raid policy that I agree with @Splinty and Wild @Wild.

Interesting.
It's like Dana was trying to tell the world that if we miss this opportunity to pay him, it will be a mistake.
Although I thought I was comfortable with my decision to bypass this event because of Tony's injury, statistics show that other folks don't feel that way.
Perhaps I'm making an error,and should order the ppv as popular numbers suggest.

I just read all the related threads about this Conor wolf tickets show and nobody made comments that aren’t true.

It's just a matter of grammar. So instead of saying "Conor's a fucking moron!!"class it up and say-

"It is my rather astute observation that the young prize fighter in question, one 'Conrad McGregor III' of Dublin Ireland, made the dubious error of attempting fisticuffs in the street, like a common thug!! Rabble rousing outside of a motor vehicle, instead of agreeing to exchange fists, as it were, inside of the fenced in octagonal arena for combat with the young gentleman who has been known to grapple with bears, one 'Khabib Nurmagodeov' of Dagestan, Russia. Hurling lawn furniture at a vehicle intended for transportation...the scoundrel!!"
