You can't back up your argument by asking have you any other proof other than what Dana said, when you have absolutely zero proof yourself. Like I said, take a breath and think before posting.

So obviously conor is demanding to overstep Justin but Dana's saying no. Conor threw toys outta pram and retired Ariel reckons conor got upset over comments broadcast team made after nunes fight says she's first dual champion in history to defend title.

When you get stripped of a belt you still keep the belt, you just aren't the champion any more. McGregor still has both his belts despite him being stripped of them.

If you remember it looked like the referee was strongly contemplating stopping it. That was a definite 10-8 in the eyes of any reasonable person or judge. Draw or Nate win would have been hard to argue with, Conor win was a wrong and maybe even currupt decision.

Alvarez was the same, I don't think that fight was a fluke win I think Alvarez bought into the McGregor hype train and was not mentally prepared for the fight. On skill I believe Alvarez to be the better fighter. His win to take the 145lb belt was a fluke. He was then gifted a shot at 155lbs and fought a man who mentally crumbled under the McGregor train. A perfect storm. He's a con artist of the highest order. Khabib showed him to be exactly what he is, a charlatan scumbag. Let him fight Poirier or Ferguson and see how well he does. He is no where near top 5, barley makes top 10 in my view.

Mellor wrote: April 7th 2018 After he pulled out of the fight with Khabib, and Khabib was awarded the 155 title. Tony hasn’t been interim for over 2 years.
Mellor wrote: » Tony was only ahead of him because he jumped him. By the above logic, Conor is owed his fight with both. If you apply that logic for one, it should be for all. As you said, it’s a draw at best. Even with the most bias scoring. But 3rd was nowhere near a 10-8 by the actual definition. If 3rd was a 10-8, so was the 2nd with 2 knockdowns.
