Dana said today he doesnt want to fight because dee's stress levels go through the roof and that they dont want her like that while pregnant! Take from that what you will!

If Dana said it then it must be true lol.

In all fairness it's a valid point and it'll all be hunky dory ....until/unless Ronda loses. If Nunes destroys her and the PPV numbers bomb, then there'll be a plane full of owners arriving at Dublin airport on their knees asking for a quick return.

Charlie is a bigger artem. Heavy hands, plods forward hands down and goes head hunting.

Don't see either of them having long UFC careers and neither would be there if it wasn't for their gym mate but sure they might as well take it while they can.

You can easily flip that question around to this:

"Would their gym mate be where he is today without them?".

Well if he trained alone for the last ten years, he wouldn't have gotten very far. I think that's the point.

Conor's so scared of Khabib and Edgar that he's even willing to fight the best boxer of all time to avoid fighting them

He's so scared to face Khabib that he's having a child to give him an excuse for some time off.

Dee is wearing a fake pregnancy belt to go along with this too another planted engineered storyline like the little girl forgetting her phone that time....

In fairness, stress is extremely bad for an unborn baby, it's quite dangerous. So it is a 100% valid excuse. There is no way you'd take that risk with your first child.

If he's not fighting until May he should be giving that belt to Aldo.

Very moving. I for one will miss your relentless contributions to this forum.

I wish you all the best. I'm not all that worried about you despite reading your story, your inner strength is obvious and I think you'll be alright.

Be a champ. A champ does what the fcuk he wants.

Get off Conor's nuts for a second. You think its really fair to the guys at 145 that Conor goes a whole year and a half without defending that title? And No did not clean out the division. Not even close. So let's stop with the whole he did a GSP and defended and beat everyone in his division before moving. Plus there's a huge difference between being injured and choosing not to defend your title. One's sad but inevitable in this business. The other is scummy.

Scummy is s bit of a stretch tho

Conor is not looking good in this situation. No matter what word you want to use to flower the situation.

Do you not think that it's essentially the UFC's responsibility and not his. There's a reason they aren't making him defend. But dont get me wrong. I'm not one for letting belts sit undefended while the champ is active.

The reason they aren't making him defend is that he'll throw another hissyfit a la UFC200.

The reason is, his fights are big bucks. That's all. Nothing to do with hissy fits. That "hissy fit" led to one of the highest grossing ufc ppv events of all time.

A beautiful piece of writing there. Fair play man. It's this unseen affect that can be made on someone's life by a complete stranger that a lot of people don't understand. I've no doubt some people may find that pathetic, but that says more about what they are missing from their lives than it does about yours or anyone else who finds themselves in a similar position.

Watching some ufc fighters talk there and there still doubting mc gregor, surely he has to be pound per pound number 1 now, mighty mouse is in a bum division and he seems happy enough staying there defending every so often, mc gregor goes up and down and has beaten a lot of high profile fighters who can wrestle talk alvarez before fight everyone was like he is in trouble here but he stopped all take down attempts and made fight look easy, he made siver poirer aldo brandao fights look easy and although really found out against diaz won a rematch at 170 yes 170 ask other fighters to go up two weights they wound not do it, maybe in trouble against mendes who gassed but was comfortable in the end, and then there is hollaway a man who has won 10 in row since losing to mc gregor. Thats why he should be number 1 everyone goes on about khalib record but he has fought so many bums and mc gregor would have a much better record if he fought all these.plus he rarely fights and pulls out a lot of fights.

The ufc has changed for the worse i feel fighters dont seem to want to fight anymore bar the likes of bisping, cerrone and mc gregor, aldo fights on a rare occasion rockhold loses belt and does not seem to care now,its the same for so many fighters i feel they should be made fight and there is also too many fighters on roster where there is too many crappy cards take belfast for instance and to end rant romero is un real talent and fighter but clearly a cheat and still on the drugs

Both are responsible. And both will deserve the inevitable backlash.

So the "Its not a money fight" is the modern "He has no aura" Why does one get praised while the other got vilified?
