Dana White: Conor McGregor doesn’t want to fight in Nevada again

[Wild]

The UFC featherweight champion apparently told Dana White that he’d like to be done fighting in Nevada after racking up a $150,000 fine for a pre-fight presser skirmish.

When Conor McGregor phoned into the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NAC) hearing on Monday, October 10th, chances are he was expecting to walk out with a slap on the wrist. Perhaps not an insignificant one, but something along the lines of the $9,000 Daniel Cormier got fined for his presser brawl with Jon Jones. At maximum, maybe the $50,000 that Jones got hit with for that same incident.

And while it may have started out that way, with a $25,000 fine propsed by the State Attorney General, McGregor walked away with something closer to a punch in the teeth; a whopping $150,000 fine.

As a result, Dana White told…

Fuck Nevada .. how the hell Cormier gets fined $9000 for putting his hands on Jones neck and Conor 150,000 for throwing a plastic water bottle ..

 

[nuraknu]

Conor 150,000 for throwing a plastic water bottle ..

Hopefully Nate gets fined more if they want to be fair because Nate is the one that started it.

Either way it's a bullshit money-grab move.

 

[Kingtony87]

That 150k could cost them a bunch of money.

 

[WEWEREONABREAK]

Good. I'd never fight there again, if I were him.

Doubtful....his purse was less, I believe it was based on that.

They've fined instigators more though. See Jones/Cormier scuffle

But didn't Jones have the higher purse in that one too?

Maybe but I think the heavier punishment was levied because he had instigated it.

Um...DC is the one that made contact first. You don't put your hands on another man's throat.

It was a % and yeah Jones made more so he was fined more.

But he was labeled the aggressor and had to do more community service hours than DC.

Fine, Community Service Issued For UFC Media Brawl

Good. Put your foot down mcGoat. Fudge the commission

Maybe he could have shown up on time. Either way, fuck him. If I never see him fight again, I won't lose sleep over it. Just think what a fabulously shitty tattoo he could have gotten with that 150k.

The press conference doesn't start until Conor gets there.

I bet if everyone in the world could watch him fight, but anytime you googled his name or attempted to watch any footage of him, your tv or computer would instantly shut off, you'd be mad

 

[Mix6APlix]

LOL @ me ever googling him. I've seen a good deal of his fights even pre ufc. Sure, he's fun to watch, but it is far outweighed by having to listen to him afterwards. All you wwe fans boys want to jerk off while listening to him run his mouth? Good for you, to each their own. The only time I listened to a post fight interview after a McGregor fight was after he took over the Captain's position of the HMS Quick Tap Club.
