Conor McGregor thread (MMA Talk Only - Read 1st Post Before Posting)

With the recent addition of the Off-topic discussion thread, I am closing the current McGregor thread so that chat going forward can be located in the correct threads. This thread is for MMA related discussion only - any other gossip/showbiz type stories are to be discussed in the off topic thread.

Please make sure to review the updated charter before posting - there have been some amendments made in light of these changes and in posting here you are at all times expected to follow those rules and guidelines.

As before there is a strict rule on no chat to be had here about legal issues or court cases as per the charter - this is a strict no go regardless of where it has or hasn't been posted in the media it is not allowed on boards.ie at all. This is not up for debate and it has been said multiple times now.

Lads talking about coke flutes and riding each other, threads back to normal.

I'm hoping we see a reigned in Conor at the presser, I get the impression that he has respect for Cowboy so hopefully it's just them shooting the ****. Would make for a welcome change anyway.

If you're complaining about not having access to this it's not Sky or BT's fault, it's your own for not having the basic knowledge in order to take to the high seas. It's Sky/BT's fault, in turn, that you're forced to do so.

I regularly watch via Sky Go but for times that I can't I watch in international waters. The quality of the latter is just as good, if not better, than BT on Sky Go.

I think the story was that his Grandfather bought him his ranch and he a had 6 figure trust fund

His ranch didn't cost a lot of money. He talked about it with Joe Rogan I think.
His grandparents did pay for it though.

That tshirt is utterly awful. To think someone probably got paid big money to design that.

Nah, average money to design something like that I'd say.

Poor virgin media subscribers, myself included, are the only people in Ireland who don’t even have the option to dish out a few more of their hard earned euro to watch this in the comfort of our warm homes.

you do...you could dish them out on a sky subscription if you really loved him you would do it!

I'll still be watching it in the comfort of my warm home.

Fighters and sports people do it all the time with monster and other sponsored drinks. All those bottles of monster you see at UFC events, they don't actually have monster in them.

What does be In the cans? Seen Conor drink from a can at a press conference before.

How do you see this affecting the fight ?

Will the beard combined with whether there is proper 12 in the bottle at the presser have a huge affect on the outcome ?

I think if it goes to ground the beard could cause some issues but may be a benefit in the clinch against the cage

They should have to drink Proper 12 and Bud in between rounds also if it goes past round 1.
Hopefully the ref will be professional and punish cowboy if he decides to use Conor’s nice beard to his advantage. They should Mike Beltran to red this. He is full part zz top so he will be well used to beard interference impacting on his every day life.

Unless he does something extreme like he did haircut-wise immediately before the mayweather fight, his beard will be longest he has had it for any fight. It was long vs Khabib but now is much more longer, like a quarter of a zz top kinda length. He is looking good with it!!

Does it matter. A couple of whiskeys a few days before a fight isn't going to make a difference. Plus, he could always have the bottle filled with something that looks like whiskey but isn't.

What like Proper 12?

Man Vs ManUre

There will definitely be Bud in cowboys bottle.
If Conor has something and it’s not whiskey in it, cowboy will make him look like an ass at this presser.

that would be new levels of sad if he was to fill the whiskey bottle with something else just for that purpose

I think cowboy will also drink the whiskey at this event!! Reckon it will be fairly good natured and light hearted tho.

He definitely shouldn’t be downing shots few days before the fight like he was doing before Khabib. And he even said at his event in Moscow that there would be no booze.
I was suspecting at the Khabib presser that it must not have been whiskey in the bottle, tho apparently it was. But if he was drinking something non alcohol from. Proper 12 bottle, that would be ammunition for Cowboy to belittle Conor at this event. Same way Cowboy will try to belittle him by drinking Bud. I reckon this is gonna happen.
Sure we will find out who is the biggest badass on Sunday morning, but this is 1 example of where Cowboy can take a psychological advantage if he plays his cards right.

Is that Eastern Time for the presser? So 10pm Irish time?

Also, I'm a Sky customer but don't have a BT sub.
How do I order the fight?

You can just order the event through BT box office on sky. No BT Sub needed. I did it for the last khabib fight

i think its a good point actually with all the bul**** he was at with khabib, basically trying to force him to drink it.

that would be new levels of sad if he was to fill the whiskey bottle with something else just for that purpose

I wonder if Conor will be pouring from his bottle of Proper 12 at this presser??
I think Cowboy will be drinking a Bud and will try to pressure Conor into drinking the whiskey.

BT Boxoffice channel somewhere in the high 400's (490 something) should be red button type action to buy it.
