He's basically a figurehead now after Zuffa sold off to WME.
He is a huge part of why MMA is what it is today. Not sure what got your panties in a wad. Controversial fighters have always created more income. [Reply]

Exactly lol...it's not that hard.
He's a complete hypocrite about this...another reason I can't stand him. When Conor pulled his bullshit with the bus he lauded it and then did nothing about it but when Khabib did what he did (not near as bad as the bus incident) he gets all high and mighty and acts disgusted...whatever. [Reply]

Let's just ignore all the inflammatory shit Conor spews for "fight promotion" and go over the shit he's pulled that actually put people in danger; had a water bottle chucking contest with Diaz where someone was hit in the back with a Monster can, jumping into the cage at Bellator and shoving a referee and trying to get at an official removing him, and the aforementioned dolly chucking incident. What's the punishment been for all this? Slaps on the wrist. [Reply]
The UFC is reportedly checking with Derrick Lewis to see if he wants to take a short notice championship fight next month against DC in MSG.
The UFC's MSG card had been set, but I assume they are now doing this after the fanbase took a big wet shit all over that card on social media, making it clear that it won't sell worth a damn unless they do something. (They could just simply open up the 165 division, move 170 to 175, and make the Diaz fight for the inaugural title, but the UFC doesn't want to do that.) [Reply]
I never realized how shady Khabib is and how connected to organized crime he is...I'd have a hard time promoting that at the top of my company. [Reply]
