Well he's obviously giving himself the best chance of winning. And look at the weight he had to jump to in that space of time too.
Well maybe he knows he has to work on his ground stuff and that's what he's doing instead of talking ****e in a different city every day.
Read it again , takeaway the fact he's Irish , and I'm sure you'll see he's a **** . He signed up to it , to earn cash ... Now he's rich as **** , suddenly he's making a stand ! **** him , I hope UFC tell him to **** off. Poor him, he's tired from attending press conferences .
No, Pud. You take Irish out of it. He is a professional fighter not a circus act. He got beat and is now doing everything to ensure he has the best chance to win that he can. What has he signed up for?
Naw you ... If that been a jock or English ufc **** attention whoring it with I've retired tweets , posting critic tweets then deleting them , then posting that pile of pish , I doubt you'd be defending them. He signed up to the ufc life ... He did all the touring when it suited him, to get rich ... Now he's rich , he's bitching about it Fed up with ****s chasing the money then moaning their life's tough ... Boo ****in hoo
He's made them ****s a fortune, he got beat and realises that he has to work on his fighting and less the ****e talk. Is he contracted to turn up at all these pressers?
No idea ... But I'm guessing Yes The end of his statement makes reference to his UFC contract . He's made a drama out of something I'm pretty sure him and his agent probably could have sorted behind the scenes ...
Probably ... He seems like a **** that enjoys negative publicity And it worked , I don't even watch the pish
He isn't a **** really though. He constantly fires his money about Ireland for the homeless and ****. Visits kids in hospital and that. The trash talk is just to sell it and it's worked thus far but he now wants to beat the guy that beat him.
Aye ? Fair play to him ... Still came across as a bleating www Jessie . Ufc won't be happy until they see cash because I bet the ppv audience will increase with folk wanting to watch to see if he gets beat No me , don't like ufc
He's made them hundreds of millions. He's the main draw and has travelled the world promoting it. How many people only know of UFC because of McGregor? Fs my son's school has an MMA after school class.
Aye he got basically bumped out his last school and the head of year in his new school said it and I burst out laughing And @Aldo McTrotsky MP his new school is a Taig school
They're not actually that well paid I don't think. Not compared to other people who make their living by trying to put their hands up some other geezer's grundies, anyway. Such as those WWE ****s for example.
It is stipulated in his contract to appear at specific promotional events in the run up to UFC events. McGregor's problem is that he makes it all about him, had no problem doing so when he was knocking lumps out of the little guys in the featherweight division, but when he gets given the chance to move up weight divisions, he ends up losing. Now that he's lost, he suddenly doesn't want to commit to the contract he agreed to and signed, but instead wants special treatment, and uses the income he's generated for the UFC as leeway, disregarding the money the UFC had made for him in the process. The thing is, if you make yourself the biggest draw, talk yourself up (and mostly back it up as well), then it's no use suddenly throwing the toys out the pram when it does end up being all about you, all because you got choked out in your last fight which was a fight you demanded, a fight you predicted you'd win in the 1st Round, and a fight that ended up showing you up. I'd be surprised if he fights at UFC 200. White and the UFC never back down from fighter demands, and to do so now would show that it is McGregor with the power, as opposed to the company. White even offered to fly McGregor's entire team out first class from Iceland, and to fly his entire gym - every single piece of equipment - to LA, have it set up identically, and have it ready to go from the moment he set foot on US soil. Not only that, he offered a private jet to take McGregor to every single media commitment FFS. No other fighter gets that treatment, and McGregor turned it down. Only one at fault here is McGregor. I like him, but it's also easy to see why folk don't. The two things to take from all of this are how rattled he was after Diaz took all his big punches, then sent him spinning with one, before he got choked out in fairly easy fashion, and secondly, of how rattled he still is, even going to these extreme lengths to try and gain extra training and special treatment.
Think all the fighters are flown in on private jets. Aldo nearly missed his sisters wedding for a promo event.
