Off-Topic: Conor McGregor arrested and possibly fired by UFC
 

I'm guessing he won't be in the WWE either in the near future now...

it seems to be 50/50 that there is a warrant... either way McGregor is a fuckin retard

He's out there like Braun Strowman wrecking crap. WWE should sign him

maybe that's his tag team partner

This is when the saying of having more money than sense is correct. Since the Mayweather fight he has been a lot more trouble than he usually is however thing is this will all eventually just be used to build up a fight against Khabib.
Some of his hangers around though are just ruining their chance to be a UFC fighter , Artem Lobov just lost his pay day.

Lol. So many people are going to sue him now.

Dude is going to go broke and Dana is going to tell him to f himself.

guess he will be in wwe by summer slam

Think his money has went to his head and he thinks he can do what he wants, when he wants. Wouldn;t be the first time someone came from nothing, made themselves a household name, got money and wanked it all away in a short period of time

Conor's a huge moron but what exactly set him off to do this in the first place?

He's been stripped off his title and he loves media attention.

Stripped of a title he hasn't defended in what, a year or more? Shocker :eek:

Is this a big work?

Him being furious at White and UFC over losing his title makes some sense but to attack a bus full of people is like next level of craziness and idiocy.

I wonder if Barclays Center will let him in the building

it has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever seen.

That's...that's Conor McGregor, but what's he doing in the Impact Zone?

Wait no, even Impact wouldn't hire him now.


"Conor McGregor arrested for beating up autistic children, claims they hired him for their "backyard wrestling" company. "

Heh, gingers.

SummerFest!

How the fuck are so many people convinced to do this with him.

3 fights got pulled from Saturday's card due to injuries and involvement from this incident.

Michael Chiesa's fight got pulled due to his injury, Ray Borg's fight got pulled due to his injury, and Artem Lobov's fight got pulled due to his involvement with Conor and a prior incident this week.

Also everyone associated with Conor yesterday got banned from the venue for Saturday's event.

There is no way that White cannot fire him. He has to let him go due to all of the ramifications that will happen against the UFC. Mcgregor is going to be facing so many different lawsuits to come out of this that it very well might bankrupt him

Wow I can't believe how big this is going to get. He will have to fire him, how can he not?

As much as White was attacking him for what he did he was also talking up a fight against Khabib.

He did it in response to Khabib and his team confronting Lobov in the hotel days earlier.

Just read about this and was just about to post the same thing, Khabib and his crew slapped up Lobov earlier in the week. Supposedly the UFC were warned that something would happen if they saw each other again.

Doubt it. UFC is a privately owned company and doesn't respond to a board of directors. As big as this is now, it will eventually blow over and Conor will fight Khabib.

I hope Conor beats the shit out ok Khabib after watching that video.

100%

I think police are going to put him in cuffs and then Khabib is going to come out and beat him with a chair.

That would be amazing Big Vic if that happened

With that said, I am wondering what they will do with this. I can see them firing him, but I can also see this being a "work" and being a prelude to the Khabib fight for Conor in July at the Summer PPV for UFC

Lol no way this is a work.

Would be an expensive work. 3 matches gone from the card now.

Max Holloway was also deemed unfit to compete this morning if I read that correctly.

UFC booking better than WWE these days!

good heat for the match later. will do numbers.

Jesus. The booked Khabib vs Anthony Pettis in replacement of Max Halloway but I think Pettis can't make weight either! Connor has FUCKED the UFC so hard omg. I love him but holy shit the destruction he's cause is just awesome.

Al Iaquinta to face Khabib. Wow it would be so cool if Al won the championship LOL.
