I think Khabib should have manned up and got off the bus and faced the music. Whether there was a threat against Artem's life or not, Nate Diaz was right, he acted tough when he had Artem alone like a bully and expected no repercussions. Sad!

Conor is a coward. That is why he pulled that stunt, he only tries this crap with dozens of security around.

If you wanted Khabib he would have gone to the hotel room discreetly or found out a way to get to Khabib discreetly, not come of a plane with 20 guys, likely on a "substance' and like a coward throw objects at a bus, not hurting Khabib but cutting up other fighters.

Dude almost got Rose badly hurt. this is what cowards do, a real man would actually try to fight Khabib, not pull bs like this. Conor is scared and shook in the worse way people.

I don’t care what was said, everyone deserves to feel safe when they’re riding the bus.

I think you're intuiting more planning to this than was actually going on. Seems like a make a few phone calls then take the 6 hour ride to NY while railing lines of coke and saying "we're gonna f him up" over and over kind of thing.

Conor knew by pulling this stunt he would be get a suspension from the commision he has already made his money and it's more important to Conor to save his reputation than actually fight. He fucked up and ended up hurting other fighters, probably o accident but he wanted nothign to do with Khabib.

Let's use common sense, if Conor actually wanted to fight Khabib, he would have discreetly confronted him, off camera, not with UFC embedded filming LMFAO.

Conor did what a coward does, he knew security was there and cameras, he knows Khabib merks him in a MMA fight or a street fight, so he on purpose sabotaged the scene to get a suspension. It is too fucking obvious.

Conor can't even get the better of Nate Diaz, that should tell you a lot man.

That would involve a level of planning or calculation that based on his prior Monster can throwing incident, he clearly doesnt have.

Conor did what he always does: Defend his 'belt' outside of the ring. Whether it's putting his hands on the bellator ref, beating up the guy at the night club, or ko'ing a bus.

No one is safe outside the octagon.

Conor is a fake, a tough guy does not scream and yell, he finds out and fights you. Making a scene while ufc embedded is filming with a shit ton of security around is not tough.

Why do you think guys lke Woodley and Cerrone says that backstage Conor is is a complete coward and does nothing.

Khabib punked Artem with his whole crew surrounding him....Conor tried to retaliate and fail miserably.

Conor has to be separated from all the other fighters at press conferences and fight nights. Not because he's a Diva, although probably that too, but because he's thrown so much shit at various fighters, nobody likes him anymore.

It seems like he only has balls to be around other fighters when he has numbers on his side, or a TV crew, or security, or combination of all 3.

Khabib addressed his concerns without spending too much energy while cutting weight, and yes his homies were present but they weren’t involved in any way.

In the other hand
Conor, riled up, probly spent some money to fly from Ireland, and paying for his minions flights, spends all that energy, going crazy, damaging property, injuring personnel, injuring fighters, getting fights scrapped, gets arrested, probably law-suit, punishments, visa-issue, people hate on you, and couldn’t address his concerns whatsoever.

I don’t know which is more sad.

If during their brief encounter when he was sonned and slapped, Khabib warned Lobov that he would be "taken care of," would that change your impression of McGregor's actions the other day?

Lobov already saw what happens firsthand to those who run afoul of Khabib's allies when his training partner was beaten. If his life was threatened or he was threatened with similar, does that at all change your thoughts on Conor rolling 20 deep to ride on him? Doesn't excuse the dolly toss, but maybe explains why tempers were running hot.

Shamrock threatened to put Tito into living death. I don’t think we’d have been cool with Tiki going OJ on Ken and Tony Galindo.

Rasul Mirzaev isn't Lobov's training partner. He's actually a Dagestani fighter who killed a guy a few years ago. Either way, assaulting people that have nothing to do with your beef is never an acceptable response.

I was at a kotc with Tony gain do on the card and when he was fighting his dad was screaming at the top of his lungs, "kill him tony! Kill him!" for the entire fight. After seeing that I finally understood why Tony had that switch that he can't turn off.

the one thing I disagree with is his boys not being involved....I've been involved in some nonsense and that looked like a hungry pack of wolves to me.....posture, positioning, everything......one guy had a level in the background.
