    Potentially scripted but White 100% didn't want those full cans being thrown.

    Doubt they were supposed to throw anything.

    Was a sh*t presser.

    Seems when Conor said the thing about Stockton, Nick Diaz said something about (maybe a threat to Conor's team?) and Nate got up and walked then.

    scripted me arse, did you see the look Dana gave em when he arrived and also the look he gave em when he said it will be a trilogy, as if Dana white has no say in it, or maybe the new owners are giving conor latitude?

    yeah trowing bottles is scripted alright, one catches a bottle in the eye and all that training is over?? no fight. give over, that was a shambles.

    Didn't Nate say that if he had been at the 'red panty' presser, he would have thrown a bottle (a plastic one perhaps) at Conor.

    Did seem scripted in parts for sure, but those cans were defo lobbed.

    You can take the lad out of Crumlin and all that.. :p

    Mcgregor said that he was told half one and he wandered out on stage pretty much at half one which was convienent. I find it hard to believe that he was not backstage prior to that. Nobody turns up 5 mins before a presser.

    Laaaads fuk sake. Conor should have laughed it off instead of throwing bottles back. Saw Nick and jake throwing bottles anyway. Definitely not staged, NSAC might even get involved.

    Surely you couldnt script something like that incase one of the press or fans got a slap of a can/bottle?

    Brilliant!! You can criticise McGregor all you want but he has guys like me (who never had any interest in UFC) tuning in and excited.

    Bloody box office!

    On the serious side of things the NSAC won't be happy at all.
