Jose Aldo and Conor McGregor come together in Boston, Dana White intervenes | MMAjunkie

Its stuff like this that gives the UFC a bad name. Its like a traveling side show with a con artist trying to sell snake oil. It seems its the same shit over and over almost scripted to just sell tickets. Probably the back stage order is "ok now act like you guys are gonna fight on stage , Ill get between you and we will sell tons of tickets!!" The smack talking is ok, but a simple "you touch your suspended" would calm this side show down. Its getting old.

I don't like this World Tour thing. I understand why they are doing it, but the fighters should be with their camps, training their asses off, not playing soap opera to attract more viewers.

Aldo's team has said this exact thing

"“(Aldo head coach) Andre Pederneiras told me – he’s not joking, he’s dead serious – that I better make sure that Conor McGregor does not touch Jose Aldo once during this entire tour,” White said on FOX Sports 1’s UFC Fight Night 62 post-fight show. “The level of disrespect that’s coming out of (McGregor’s) mouth will not be followed by the level of disrespect by him being touched.”

Yes but all that can be solved with a touch and suspended. BUT without the WWE backdrop wouldnt get people watching. You wouldnt get the views on performance alone. I wouldnt be surprised to see if that brawl between Jones and DC wasnt a staged trial run. It seems there's more and more these days. Isnt that what dirtbag con artist due test then capitalize.

Im pretty sure Ill watch it somewhere, I wont threw down any money to buy it, but im sure in the end ill watch, will be fun to see if Conor wins will dana pick him up on his shoulders and march around the ring parading around with a fake trumpet in his mouth. Gonna be interesting at the end of the fight i guess for dana.

Same here! I gotta give it to Conor...that motherfucker knows how to sell a fight and get people invested. His success, and honestly...the future success of the UFC, all rides on this one fight.

I think they're being fairly smart about it. fight is still 4 months away, might as well do the pr stuff now, then let the guys get to training. Would suck if they trained first, and then weeks leading up to the fight was all about a world tour promoting the fight.

Good point D241.

As i said in a previous post, I have yet to pay into his hype. I rather send my PPV money on other fighters who do more than talk smack.

I think while they are acting all stupid with the WWE BS, they should bring Duffy and have him stand on Aldos side. Im sure that would get into Conor's head since he put Conor to sleep.
