Re: Conor retires?

I bet they fucked him on some sort of payment if he's really retiring.

Or he got shook by Joao Carvalho dying.

Re: Conor retires?

Dana is probably going insane wherever he is right now, wish I was there to see it.

Re: Conor retires?

I doubt with the lifestyle he leads that he actually has that much saved up. Not buying it.

Re: Conor retires?

I think he's trolling, will probably say he's going to retire at 35 which is still young when most retire at 65, etc. Or some shit like that.

McGregor/Diaz 2 will be his comeback match

Lol

Yeah, this has to be a leverage move of some sort. Or some type of troll-job/head game for Nate. NOT GONNA WORK

lol the attention this is generating already.

I kinda hope he does retire though, to stick it to the UFC and create another avenue for fighters as a promoter.

Kavanagh just tweeted "Well was fun while it lasted."

Apparently this is 100% legit and not a joke at all.

He truly is the GOAT if he sticks with this retirement.

Last few twitter follows: Shane McMahon, Becky Lynch, Triple H, Stephanie McMahon.

Nah, he ain't no GOAT. He's a dude who talked a ton of shit and got mentally broken by a real legend on 10 days notice. Never defended his belt either.

As soon as people stopped talking about him, he throws this out there for attention when the real P4P GOAT is returning this weekend. He's an attention whore.

So, so salty.

Re: Conor McGregor retires

So true though. He ain't retiring unless he blew out his knee or got popped by USADA. It's all part of the mental warfare.

 

[Lord of The Curry]

Re: Conor McGregor retires

Except for the legend part.

 

[909]

Re: Conor McGregor retires

He's the short notice legend, changed his bum life

Re: Conor McGregor retires

Lol it must be a troll, nothing to see here

 

[909]

Re: Conor McGregor retires

So, Dana was just on SportsCenter and said Conor has been pulled from UFC 200. Just watched it myself. So, yeah man.

This is also definitely over pay, some stuff is starting to trickle out about how Conor didn't want to go to a press conference and they pulled him themselves, there's also talk about him asking for more money and them telling him no, etc.

 

[Mickey Massuco]

Re: Conor McGregor retires

Awesome.

Lots of salt in this thread. The Diaz Bros are fuckin' legends. I don't think people appreciate how tough it is to be consistently relevant for over a decade like these dudes were. Conor didn't do it yet.

Nick tapped Gomi at 160 when he was the consensus best lightweight in the world. He KO'd Robbie at 170, which is impressive since that was the only time it's happened in over 35 fuckin' fights, many of which were wars against some heavy hitters at 170/185. Nate beat most of the guys they put in front of him, and they put a lot of good-really good fighters in front of him.

But while McGOAT has a padded record, he still KO'd Aldo and Mendes at the end of it all. You can't take that away from him. If he's smart enough to demand a lot of money and if he doesn't get it then to promote his own show, I'd support that 100%. I like that Mayweather is promoting a show too, bring some competition into this arena. That will increase fighter pay.

Re: Conor McGregor retires

Conor was apparently training in Iceland and didn't want to fly in for the presser. You may already know that though....

 

[NoCalMike]

Re: Conor McGregor retires

Someone said Dana pulled him from the card because Conor pulled a Nick Diaz and didn't want to the presser/promotional stuff.

 

[909]

Re: Conor McGregor retires

There's far more to it than that.

 

[ViciousFish]

Re: Conor McGregor retires

It looks like Conor didn't want to do the entire promotional tour which I've seen described as a "mini world tour".

 

[NoCalMike]

Re: Conor McGregor retires

Is Lawler's next fight already booked, because I'd be completely ok with Nate taking it.

 

[Mickey Massuco]

Re: Conor McGregor retires

Yeah, felt he wasn't getting paid enough to warrant flying all over the world. I don't blame him at all.

 

[NoCalMike]

Re: Conor McGregor retires

Connor's antics would work if say half the roster up and did the same thing.

They want Lawler to fight Woodley.
