WWE-ish... but it's not a stunt. Lesnar stuff going on, that's pub. There's a lot more to this.

Conor's ego is out of control. Khabib talks a lot of junk. This has been years in the making. Khabib did confront Artem, but nothing physical happened. There was a lot of trash talking, mostly in Russian. Artem is Russian, fighting out of Ireland. Khabib, while hailed from Russia, actually comes from the Dagestan region, which his pretty rough. He's not someone to screw with. If the 2 legitimately met on the street, it's a pretty nasty scenario.

With all of that said, the reason Dana didn't push Conor to step in after Tony went full Tony, was because he didn't have time to promote it and get the money he'd need to pay Conor and that a Conor fight should bring in. This incident lays the groundwork for that. Khabib is going to smash Max on Saturday. They'll do a silly 6 month suspension for Conor, maybe yank his belt. He'll get probation for breaking the bus window. Probably have to deal with a civil suit or 2, for the bus, Barclay's and Chiesa... then in November or January, we get the monster fight between Khabib and Conor. Bad blood, etc. Huge money for the UFC.

The only possible issues is an amazing showing from Max this weekend (highly unlikely) and if Khabib misses weight or sees big potential in a fight with GSP.

So all of this is to say what I said but in a more TLDR version. Got it. :D

Reign said it's not a stunt then provide a step by step description of the pay day UFC can get from this...which makes me think it might be a stunt. :lol:

I just spoke to @TeamKhabib. Story coming.

Taste:

“I am laughing inside. You broke window? Why? Come inside. If you real gangster why don’t you come inside? This is big history gangster place. Brooklyn. You want to talk to me? Send me location. I am going to come. No problem.”

Nick has a history with Khabib and his brother & crew... there was a drink throwing incident at a WSOF event 5-6 years ago. Like Conor, he ducked Khabib.

I get that some dudes were hurt and Conor was arrested, really kills the fake angle.

But I find it hard to believe all this was happening with this video, and a bunch of MMFA fighters on the bus wouldn't have come out of the bus and started a huge brawl.

You can't believe that a couple of people with thousands of dollars on the line this weekend wouldn't jump off and jeopardize that as opposed to just leaving?

Also, from the fighters I've heard that were on the bus, most are pretty mild tempered... except for Ragin' Al Iaquinta. But my guess is jumping off 1 vs 20 didn't seem like a smart move to him.

Conors gonna get sued worse than any amount he'd make in a UFC fight so its def staged. Biggest fighter in the world needs to attack a bus to get the world hyped for Khabib-Conor as if we havent been asking for this fight for 1-2 yrs..

Max pulled from the fight due to medical (weight cutting issues). This card was awesome 3 weeks ago, still good last week when Max stepped in for Tony. Now it's just JJ and Thug Rose. Casseras (Bruce Leroy) doesn't get to fight because Lobtov was pulled for his part with McDipshit.

Chiesa and Pettis fight was scrapped due to the injury that Connor caused. They are working a show time is Khabib main event now.

3 fights we're scrapped due to yesterday's shenanigans.

Thug Rose wins 49-46 on all cards. I thought it was 48-47 but she definitely won.

Iaquinta has a punchers chance but just don't see it happening against the Eagle.

Porier /Geathje fight was as good as you could imagine. I don't think Gaethje can have a boring fight. I don't see him lasting longer with his style of fighting though.
