Looks like Conor continues to call the shots with the UFC
I guarantee if he wins and McGregor wins he'll fight him. Massive pay day and he easily won the last fight. He's got no reason not to fight him.
Is it? Don't really know much about these newer guys. And female fights haven't really been my thing.Surprised that there’s no talk in here about one of the best cards of the year.
I know what you mean but McGregor getting a shot at the LW belt if he wins a WW fight against someone coming off two losses stinks, especially if he leapfrogs Gaethje who literally just leathered Cowboy. Especially with Dana saying 'look at what Conor has done the last however many years' - he's never defended a belt, lost to the champ, beat an old man up, attacked a bus and almost ruined a card he wasn't even on, couple of alleged serious criminal incidents in Ireland and I'm sure I'm forgetting a couple more.Whilst I agree with the sentiment of what you're I've never heard anyone in here up in arms when it's rumoured Romero is getting the next title shot despite missing weight and losing 2 of his last 3 fights. I've never heard people complain about Cormier holding up the HW division constantly, in fact I remember people saying Joanna should get a title shot off being 1-3 in her last 4 fights (before Waterson fight.) The UFC are massively favourable towards McGregor but it seems people also conveniently forget when fighters they like may get special treatment to.
Covington basically admitting everything he says is an attention seeking act
Dana, and the organisation, are as much to blame for the farce the UFC is as someone like Covington. Blaming the pawns whilst the kings and queens manipulate the proverbial board is overlooking the issues within the UFC and how it is allowed to make/break fighters and match make in the most unprofessional manner for a sport that wants to be taken seriously.Twat

I really like McGregor as a fighter. All his fights have been entertaining and have brought a lot of eyes to the sport. I've completely lost track of my point now because I've had a beer or two I guess I just wish Dana would stop pouring bullshit out of his mouth to justify giving McGregor the next shot over Gaethje who deserves the opportunity. It's never straightforward with someone as divisive as McGregor.

Completely agree. If the UFC actually told him he "wasn't enough of a character" to be extended, then they are completely culpable for Covington's (and Conor's) antics.
Possibly but he's gone so far with it he's quite clearly a cnut even if he's exaggerating. Not everything is the UFCs fault
I'm sure he is given that most other fighters don't like him, but they are clearly fanning the flames with certain fighters and the fighters are participating to save their careers.
Yeah exactly. But Garbrandt, who had zero title defences gets instant rematch.What’s up with Woodley?
And it really frustrates me how long-time champions don’t get instant rematches when they lose. They deserve better. And he’s far from the first.
Aldo springs to mind, as does Miocic, who yes got his but only as other options fell through for DC

What time are the prelims?
Fecking hell the way Reug Reug just ragdolled him in the first like he weighed about 5 stone. Dropped him with a leg kick in the 2nd then a bit of a wild TKO to finish it.
Reug Reug weighed in at 265 lbs & Boukichou at 233, threw him around like it was 133 though .What a beast. You know how much was the weight limit for this fight and how much was the reading of the scales? Looks humongous.
