    All I heard was something along the lines of "Get your hand out of my face" or similar?

    he ran around the back of dana and could have easily got at dustin but waited for soneone to hold him back . PATHETIC

    WTF did you expect him to do? Plant one on Poirier and get banned for life? He's playing a game and getting in his opponents head, Conor's a lot of things, stupid isn't one of them

    Jones and DC just got fined and almost suspended for scrapping at a face off. Conor only wants to wind up dustin, dustin is pissed off but neither are stupid enough to put hands on each other.

    Hate that I feel compelled to respond to this but here goes. If you think that McGregor would jeopardise the greatest opportunity of his life by throwing a punch at a media face off, you are seriously mistaken.

    Any posturing he may have done was PURELY to get in his opponents head. McGregor is not stupid, as he has already shown.

    Just a little info for anyone who wants to watch the fight live but doesnt have BT sports 1 but has a tv that accepts screen mirroring from your smart phone.

    Download the "Mobdro" app, go to the sports channel listings, find BT sports 1 and mirror it on to your TV, good quality and no charge, handy !

    146 on the button, my man! Dustin lost it at all the boos when he was coming out and started shouting out to the crowd before he weighed in. 100% letting the crowd get to him.

    Conor looking emaciated as f*ck at the weigh ins. He must have the weight down to a tee. Huge Featherweight!

    Dustin stepping out and you'd swear Conor was the local fighter. He didn't take it well at all. I reckon he's playing right in to McGregor's plan and it won't end well for Dustin.
