Joe Rogan on the Conor McGregor Bus Incident "He Could Go To Jail!"

Joe Rogan and Bas Rutten give their thoughts on Conor McGregor's bus incident.

[@ogjamal3240]

2:39 "he didnt do in on purpose"" yes tf he did he threw a dolly through a window of a bus with people inside, what tf else what he was trying to do ?

[@Luey-E]

@Perry Ellis 😂😂I hope that's sarcasm. They wanna talk about his kid and wife while he's putting other people in danger. Responsibility is the moral of the story

[@matthewkohen2288]

Poor Connor, he cant pump gas.. Its hard to be him.

[@knowledge2159]

[@zekeleone4357]

poor matt... all he has is bad gas

[@DTR89]

He can't pump gas and was forced to get a Tesla

[@ryublueblanka]

everyday he must look at that million dollar pile of cash and just shake his head like "wow...I have millions and am set for life but damn...I cant pump that sweet sweet gas anymore"

[@Ali-ld8wp]

Matthew Kohen I don’t pump gas. It’s not cuz I’m filthy rich but it’s because I live In New Jersey

[@dilshanization]

I don't think he got caught up in the moment, I believe it was pre-meditated as Dana White said. They grouped together and took a 6 hour flight, plenty of time to think about what's best to do.

[@Wcoast408]

jxxlion definitely permeditated lol

[@kingmoab5537]

jxxlion Yeah bas making excuses

[@KorDawg91]

jxxlion for real, it's insane how stupid people have gotten. Its plain common sense, he knew exactly what he was doing hes an adult.now face adult consequenses.

[@ardien.535]

im assuming it'll be hard to prove pre-meditation. he was already suppose to be on that flight

[@PHeMoX]

Bullshit, Connor never thinks more than an hour ahead man. And as he said himself, he's mostly busy with the next fight, which hardly would be the bus thing. It also did *not* look very organised. They did not single out a target or anything like that. They merely created damage like a stupid bunch of hooligans. Got unlucky how some people got hurt, although that stuff is the risk they were willing to take with the stupid attack. The motive about the beef he had is speculation. It might have had influence, but it may not have been the big deal. I think Bas defended Connor for being a bit on the impulsive side. When these types of guys get into fight mode, they tend to shut off their brain. I would also agree he has nothing but yaysayers on his side and that stuff clouds judgement for sure. There might have been an asshole telling him he should take some kind of revenge. Anyway, had Connor thought this through he would have known this was absolutely the most stupidest thing to do, putting his entire career AND wealth on the line.

[@Chance-ry1hq]

“He might go to jail” What are you talking about, he should go to jail. Anybody else in his position would go to jail, and so should he. They need to put an end to this double standard. So what if he has money, throw the book at him...

[@miketython6554]

[@leonkennedy4680]

Being from Dublin myself, people like Conor are very good at portraying a 'good man' type appearance when they are not. People like him lie and manipulate people's perceptions of them. Conor is from a rough area where everyone is only out for themselves

[@jiffijaffi]

He didn't do it with the intent to seriously injure and pull random fighters off the card is what Bas meant. He obviously meant to throw the dolly and cause a scene via a temper tantrum.

Yeah have fun living a life where you can't go anywhere in public by yourself or with anyone else without people constantly running up to you screaming trying to get your autograph or a picture taken so they can post on social media for likes when they barely know who you are. And enjoy the backlash and the insults when you deny their request and they lash out at you even though you've been doing this every fucking day for years. You literally can't go anywhere in peace for the rest of your life. Oh, but you can buy pretty much anything you want, that historically has never gotten old for anyone in his position, right? /s

[@burningmisery]

He's a bum, a real life bum. He talked how he had nothing, how he came from nothing and how he pulled himself up by his own work. Well, what happens with a lot of bums that get a lot of money and fame, they turn into bigger bums. They say money is the root of all evil, but I say Conor is a bum who managed to gain planetary popularity and earn a shit ton of cash, which has turned him into a spoiled brat. The newly rich enjoy ruining everything around them, and then asking for understanding when they ruin other people's lives. I hope he has to pay a lot to everyone involved, and then has to learn the real value of money - save it so your son doesn't have to watch his dad get choked out or get brain damage. The kid's cute and the gf looks like a genuinely nice person, hope she gets him to get his shite together. It'd be a shame if one of the most amazing fighters NEEDS to fight instead of wanting to fight.

[@SzymonAdamus]

[@kletonperntreou3089]

[@dorinoprea5835]

Mike Brown and this hypes the ufc even more

[@dextergarner1286]

Mike Brown people that understand the game realize it. Your eyes and mind are open.

[@sybo59]

It’s not that simple. For one, it’s entirely possible that McGregor never fights again, which would be an enormous loss for Dana. Second, this kind of negative attention undoes the mountains of work Dana and the UFC have done to get the public passed its image of MMA as human cockfighting. Though you’re surely right Dana would like McGregor to have a weaker bargaining position, it’s not clear he’d like it at such a high cost.

[@user-mu6yg4sw6x]

sybo59 get some balls any stop being such a pussy, fighting is fighting it will never be afternoon tea for gods sake, forget the so called mountains of pr to get mma more mainstream, more mainstream just means more casual watchers. A fight is brutal its ment to be brutal. As for all the bruhaha with all this, it just hypes connor even more, so what if he cant fight in the usa anymore, theres the rest of the world, like macao in china which has over taken las vegas, the fight can be there ufc or otherwise. I can tell you this the ufc will pay out huge for connors next fight or someone else will, today fights are about noteriety not substance, connor has both. Were not know has the fighting irish for notting, ya know.

[@kletonperntreou3089]

sybo59 I agree with you but this just makes UFC more like wwe and a lot of people like drama so it’s a win win situation on Dana’s point of view. Conor will fight again for sure. Jon Jones done a hit an run on a pregnant woman and he still came back. Conor will just have to pay a lot of compensations out to fighters.

Conor should be made an example of for this and should do some time for this, he could easily have caused much worse damage than he did and it was only by luck that he did not. If it turns out to be just a fine then that is not going going to be much of a punishment for someone with the wealth of Conor. What is sickening is that Conor will most likely not end up with anything more than a slap on the wrist because of his fame and wealth and the potential he has for PPV sales in the UFC, if it was someone from the undercard that did this you could guarantee they would have instantly be sacked from the UFC and Dana White would be screaming for Jail time for sure.

[@freedomforall2924]

I never heard this much shit when Rampage Jackson went on a rampage. Went on a Police Chase, drove through yards, and made a woman have a miscarriage. What did everyone forget?

[@mosgem]

This conversation is being had by two people who aren't experts in tort law. Rose Namajunas will have a very difficult time suing for emotional damage because to prove a tort, you need to show damage. It's hard to show damage when she went out 24 hours after the incident and performed spectacularly in a fight. Any of the other fighters on the bus, if they want to collect more than $20,000 (which will barely cover legal fees to sue someone as rich as McGregor), will need to somehow prove that the attack cause them real damage. Very difficult to do. That leaves Borg and Chiesa. Both of them had to pull out of their fights; however, both of them got paid for the fight, so they didn't lose any money, so McGregor's liability for their show purse is limited. Injuries to Michael Chiesa are laughably small. They're cuts caused by glass- no sticthes, no advance medical attention. 10 G's, max. Ray Borg, if he has any lasting damage, will be able to sue for a FUCK TON, especially if it impacts his career as a fighter. We're talking millions. If Borg's lawyer is smart, they'll hold off the lawsuit so that the doctors can get a full understanding of the extent of damages done. Realistically, the incident shouldn't cost McGregor more than 1-2 million including legal fees, paying for the bus, etc. However, everything in the states is fucked up when it comes to personal injury law, so it'll be interesting to see where it goes

[@philipzuco]

Best answer yet!

[@2299mikey]

No this is gonna cost Connor close to 10 million. Connor literally can’t risk this going to court. If this goes to court he could be banned from the US for life. Rose will easily be able to get money for damages. Any decent lawyer will be able to prove it easily. It doesn’t matter if she fought the next day it’s her job and like most fighters she’s probably close to being broke. She can’t afford to push a fight back. Everyone on that bus will get paid if they want to especially people who were getting a percentage of the ppv buys. Pettis could sue as well same as Artems opponent for damages. Connor could easily be facing 10+ lawsuits all of which he’ll lose. Plus add in months and months of legal fees and Connor is fucked. Then you have the fact he just lost all his leverage for his new contract and this could end up costing him over 25 million even without a felony conviction which could also very easily still happen. Then you have the ufc could also sue if they want to but they likely have the ability to fine him already. Barclays has a suit and the security guard who broke his hand also does. Face it man Connor is fucked

[@johnnysatty]

mosgem pretty much spot on. Tort laws are for corporations I thought though? I think his legal fees will be more than 1m alone. 1500hr for the next two years.

[@Ancientknowledge]

Hahahahahahaha

[@mosgem]

Is there a statue law/ precedent in the US saying that individuals who are found guilt of civil (non criminal) charges are banned from the country for life? That seems a little bit excessive. So, you may be right about how much he has to pay, because as I said at the end of my comment, the US is a little crazy. However, I'm going to break down how the courts look at cases like this to see how much he should pay. Let's look at Rose first. To sue someone for damages, you need to prove three things: 1. There was a duty of Care. Connor obviously has a duty of care to not harm other individuals. Easily proven. 2. That duty of care was breached. Again, tossing shit at a bus breaches the duty of care to not harm people. Easy easy prove. 3. The breach of duty of care RESULTED IN DAMAGES. This is the important one. Rose Namajunas was not physically damaged at all. That leaves mental pain and suffering. Was she shaken up? Yeah, probably. Will she get some money for that? Yeah, probably. Could any decent lawyer obliterate her on the cross-examination? Almost certainly. Trying to prove that an event caused lasting psychological damages when you went out the next day and fought the best female fighter ever, AND won, is very difficult. Same goes for every fighter on the bus. Saying you were shaken up so bad it's impacted your life, but you were still able to go out and fight and perform, is a shaky argument at best. Same goes for Micahel Chiesa. He had cuts on his face. He was damaged in that he didn't get to fight, but he got his show money anyways, so he didn't lose anything; ergo, Conor doesn't have to pay for that. Conor maaaaay have to pay for his win bonus/half the win bonus (I would do half) but that's water under the bridge for him. I forgot about the security guard. The security guard has a very, very strong claim, and he should (again, I say SHOULD) walk away with a cool half million for breaking his finger, along with money for his medical bills and the work he'll miss while injured. IRL, he'll probably get at least four times that. Another thing to consider here is the appeal process. Conor's main worry will be punitive damages. These are applied when courts find that a defendants actions are 'high handed, offensive, and intentionally aimed at injuring the plaintiff'. Again, there's ZERO evidence that Conor intentionally tried to hurt Rose/Michael?Ray Borg. The only one he intended to hurt was Khabib, and Khabib wasn't hurt, so he has no claims in tort law. So, Conor shouldn't get any punitive damages, but he probably will, because this is America. However, even if they slap him with a $20 million punitive charge, Conor has the resources (and the incentive) to fight it every step of the way. See Liebeck v. McDonalds for an example of how this can happen, or Apple Technologies v. Samsun Group. He can appeal it and appeal it and appeal it, dumping paperwork on the plaintiffs until Michael Chiesa's lawyer eventually decides to settle. Connor probably is fucked. My first comment was to vent frustration about how dumb the American tort system really is, but I also think it's important to shed some light on a complex situation. Most people have a limitted understanding, including Joe and Bas, so I just wanted to offer clarification as to how the law actually worked.

[@ardien.535]

conor is not going to jail, get real

[@manbearpig7359]

Ardavon Yazdi Yep, rich white guys don't go to jail in America. And even if convicted they will find a way to allow him to fight in the USA. I think the only consequences he will face are monetary....ie from being sued.

[@LiamEshikari]

Man Bearpig like OJ?

[@sd81a46]

JRM 4 PM lol because O.J. was really with the brothas right.😂 O.J ain't black he's O.J (authentic quote).

[@chriswhamilton]

Ardavon Yazdi i saw an interview with a lawyer who said he won't do any jail time at all. Might get a small fine or community service then sued by the fighters.

[@LiamEshikari]

SD81 A looks black to me

[@broncosgjn]

No Bas, adults don't throw stuff at other people because their friends tell them. Connor is the pack leader here. Oh! Connor has a baby and a wife. So give him a pass? No people with no money just go to gaol. Connor at least has the option to pay people off. Most people do do have that option. Plus what is this with Bas dreaming about letting Connor kick? Mayweather has never said he could out MMA Connor. It was Connor who said he could outbox Mayweather. What has Bas been smoking?

[@talleyrand299]

I'm a big McGregor fan but the thumbnail to this video makes it all worth it.

[@RichardTabar]

I wonder if Mayweather would get the benefit of the doubt from Bas? Hmmmmm.

[@DramA525]

hell to the nah, jail time for sure

[@Barbarianz1000]

He would get jail for assault

[@brandonboggs2656]

Do I smell the race card coming? Of course, everybody is racist towards blacks...sigh, nob9dy buys that shit anymore and were tired of hearing it.

[@TENNSUMITSUMA]

Brandon Boggs truth hurts eh?!

[@ER-df8vx]

Richard Tabar Probably not.

[@filthyrich7905]

His lawyer will plead everything down. First offense, they'll throw out the felony charge and he'll plead to the misdemeanor. He will get probation and community service and not spend a day in jail. This will cost him money, nothing else. He'll fight Khabib before the year is over

[@BruceTheMoose96]

Filthy Rich ray could lose his eye because of his actions. That alone could give him a felony.

[@mattyicicles1608]

Filthy Rich Conor will never, ever fight Khabib.

Whatever Bas broke his arm on is no longer on this planet.

[@RoutaAskel]

And if it is, it wishes it wasn't

[@roybatty-]

Conor's wallet is going to feel it for sure. He is also looking at some misdemeanors, I don't think a felony will stick. One thing is for sure, he is going to replay that dolley throw in his mind many times.

[@studentofthegame2648]

Burmese - you don’t know anything about how the legal system works if you think the 50k is what Conor should worry about, he’s referring to the damages to the fighters, and if Dana wasn’t so money hungry, potentially the UFC

[@thefruitofaliens]

I feel like Conor McGregor in jail is going to be like Rorschach in jail in the Watchmen. - But with an Irish accent.

[@gromcom]

Joe, this is America, we don't send our celebrities to jail.

[@jtraffie1523]

Joe not only could he go to jail he should go to jail. If I did this exact same thing i would already be in jail. And looking at multiple charges, it’s ridiculous to give him a pass just because he’s “Conor”. And he did it on purpose.

[@kevinmyers440]

J Traffie No you wouldn't shut the fuck up, people do not go to jail for this dumb shit and your bail would only have been $700 most likely not 50,000

[@jtraffie1523]

Kevin Myets sorry I hurt your feelings. All the best to you.

[@kevinmyers440]

J Traffie thanks bro that was nice

[@SpontaneityJD]

McGregor's fine as far as criminal charges go, he'll plead down to misdemeanor assault, get some community service and a small fine. As far as civil lawsuit, the only people who really have any case against him are Michael Chiesa and Ray Borg. McGregor will likely settle with them for like 20-30k.

[@2299mikey]

Spontaneity no millions. They have zero reason to settle. They’re the ones that can also push to keep the felony charges. The felony charge which is a guaranteed win already. Connor is fucked man face it

[@SpontaneityJD]

2299mikey No. You have no idea how the law works do you.

they put Mike Tyson in jail. money isn't everything

[@HonorinTreason]

Things are getting out of control. Could be a PR stunt. The lines between real and fake are blurring all the time. 🤔

[@HonorinTreason]

micheal Knight, "could be." Which is our point. No one knows. Personally, we want Conor in wrestling, but are surprised that more people are not suspicious. Meanwhile, Brock seems set to cross worlds. Reality/Fiction? Popcorn. Nom Nom Nom.

[@joeleek9976]

Commitment to kaye fabe

[@DBLN11]

Not a PR stunt. McGregor was angry. Not PR, not coke. Just angry

[@HonorinTreason]

DBLN 11 All valid points.... We shall see. It's gonna get interesting. If I had to bet though, my bet says no jail. I just can't see it.

[@claycollins8973]

Not gonna lie, I thought the same thing, very could possibly be a PR stunt

[@mikeshoults4155]

Conor is untouchable. There won't be any consequences besides a fee weeks of tough talk. Fact is, when it comes to superstars the UFC, the law, the public they all have no teeth. They bark but nothing of consequence ever happens in America to big celebrities who cross the line. The only line is the bottom line on the account books, it is black or red? Black means no consequences, red means we throw him under the bus.

[@mikeshoults4155]

If Ray Borg's career is finished because of his fucked up eye. Well too bad. Conor does what he wants consequence free. He can do it to anyone. That's the message Conor tells everyone, " I'm Conor McGregor and I can hurt and age anyone and no one can stop me!" Sorry Ray, no one gives a fuck about you, you not the Golden child Conor....

[@MYNAMEISGARY]

WTF Is Ray Borg? Proof of injury? STFU

[@TheAcousticFire]

Being charged for mischief just sounds really funny to me

[@DEEPCYCLEGARAGE]

It's amazing there's not more corneal abrasions in MMA. A very painful injury that lasts a long time because you can re-injure the cornea by blinking due the irregular cells on the cornea.

[@Busternutt69]

lmao all you ppl making conor out to be more than he is. even joe himself is saying its real and u got these youtube conspiracists acting like it was planned. lmao yeah, cancel 3 fights, injure two fighters, almost caused a title fight to be pulled and get conors teammate pulled from his fight. yeah conors gonna intentionally screw over his teammate.. lol

[@fatredditmod]

Corneal Abrasions aren't serious. You get corneal abrasions everytime you get poked in the eye

[@rayray6490]

Corneal abrasions with tiny glass shards a bit more complicated

[@2299mikey]

They’re not the same. That’s like saying all bruises are the same

[@bluebke]

Conor is going to plea out and pay whatever court fines - community service - and probation. He'll settle all his lawsuits out of court to avoid lawyer fees. With Conor's sponsor (Beats, BK, Bud Light, Monster, etc) money alone - he'll be able to easily pay out $$$.

[@piro4351]

10 million tops.

[@ffnovice7]

Two things: you can't assume everybody will end up reformed like Tyson, and after one Tyson you cannot have another. Just like after one Connor you can't be the next one

[@islandaerial3414]

Got to man up and take responsibility, FULL STOP

[@gorillamode47]

I can hold my eye like that and make it red too. He was fine after it happened, sending out tweets talking hella shit. Go watch the video He sat in his hotel room for like 4 hours....probably talked to his manager and some lawyers, deleted the tweets, then all of a sudden couldn't see and had to go to the hospital

[@HumanoidCableDreads]

Can you get the UFC doctor to diagnose you with abrasions in your eye too? Yeah that doc is going to risk his medical liscense to help out Ray Borg.

[@sl9wdive]

This is by far the most stupid comments I've read on the internet LMAO

[@gorillamode47]

A hospital diagnosed him not UFC doctors. Yes I could go to the hospital and have them tell me I have abrasions. If you go to the hospital they will tell you something is wrong and prescribe you something even when you don't need it/is something minor

[@NoLoVeLoStNoLoVfOuNd]

As Conor McGregor would say Ray borg will do NOTHING. Why? Nothing was wrong with him in the video, he didn’t blink. Not a dam thing!!! His eyes were wide open, didn’t take his glasses off, didn’t rub his eyes, even after the bus you see him walking from some room, still not rubbing his eyes nothing!!!’ Conor McGregor lawyers will be way to good for that one, the only thing ray will get is MAYBE his fight money, Bc I’ll tell you anyone will do anything for money and that was his title shot / again!!! and he took it, after getting his ass kicked in by mighty mouse, he told him self there’s no way I’ll ever be a champ, then he took something and put it in his eyes, there’s no way that anyone can make me believe otherwise after watching those videos, as any jury would see it that way after watching the videos, I’ve already seen and heard lawyers speak ab this, doesn’t look like he will win this one.

[@numbersix9468]

you're not a doctor

[@NoLoVeLoStNoLoVfOuNd]

dave dixon it doesn’t take a doctor for commonsense bud

[@thishandleistaken1011]

Why does no one talk about what he was angry about?

[@joseph9531]

Good question.

[@tylerc6559]

What was he angry about and did it justify the outcome?

[@2299mikey]

Because what he was angry about is something that happens all the time in the ufc. Hell Connor has done it himself multiple times.

[@thishandleistaken1011]

I don't think he was justified at all. I just think it's funny that even the people who are giving him a pass don't even talk about why he was angry.

[@Kerslake_]

apparently khabib and friends was bullying conors friend or someshit

[@omeedazmoudeh5620]

The possibility of criminal convictions have nothing to do with the civil lawsuits brought by the injured fighters. The government (prosecutors) will decide whether he gets criminal charges.

[@jadestone032]

had corneal abbrasion a few years ago. shit stings like hell and your vision is going to be blurred. you can feel the cut everytimr you blink and you tear up like a faucet, medication for it adds to the sting but good thing is healing is quite fast.

[@jorgejanson9619]

"Can sue for emotional damage".. Haha, fucking american justice system, it's pathetic :P

Maybe in new York. The last I heard you can't sue for emotional damage, at least in Missouri.

QUEENDOM guess youve never been almost stabbed to death in front of your son then they let the guy go. That's new york for ya. PTSD is real. Want me to show you real fear. Never been afraid of anything in my life until my sons life was nearly out of my control. Its so bad it has become physical. I now IBS from it. It developed a couple weeks after the attack from my mind stressing my body out. Havent really slept since it happened over a year ago. Every noise makes me relive it.

[@springbloom5940]

Thats what he wants, so he has an excuse to not fight. Then he can be the victim.

[@Jammydodger69]

That would be a good idea if nobody wanted to see him fight but wait everyone wants to see him fight

[@DBLN11]

He donated €750,000 to a children'a hospital in Crumlin. It's a really good hospital that looks after kids with serious illnesses. Not condoning what he did, although I see why he done it - but you never hear these stories in the media. He still says hello when he walks past you, and he is not on coke despite common belief. His trash talking is considered joking in Ireland. He knows Americans will be offended by it, and react. Publicity. This isn't a PR stunt though. Imo what Nurmagomedov did was worse. Bullying someone when you've 11 others with you. Nah, ask them to hang back. Sort your problems out like a real man. I don't care about McGregor, Nurmagomedov or this incident enough to be replying to you all, thanks.

[@2299mikey]

DBLN 11 he’s on coke. His drug use has been known for a while. Did you forget like 6 months ago when he trashed a hotel room when he was doing whip its

[@christopherwalker8240]

2299mikey Conor was doing whipets? Lol damn I didn't hear about that. Crazy.

[@vergecryptocurrency4552]

Donating yo the hospital is just for publicity. He is a coke head scumbag. Always has been.

[@DBLN11]

[@DBLN11]

2299mikey He's not on cocaine. He did it in a nightclub before, doesnt mean he's on it, get over yourself. You've clearly no idea about its effects either. Leave your house once in a while, go out some night, you'll see people on it

[@TheDantheman12121]

I don't think he should go to prison. I think any normal person would probably avoid prison if they did this for a first time offence!

[@TheDantheman12121]

No he will not. anyone even with a public defender would probably not get prison for this! as long as it is his first offense!

[@RKFCGSBGK]

You're so unvelievably dumb when it comes to law and you also have a pokerstars profile picture so I don't really think you're too smart.

[@doesitmatter3788]

youre so wrong lol they could charge him with assult but because of who he is and the money involved they will not as a first offense they tried to give me 65 years for a fight where i pushed a desk and a cup cut someones arm just turned 18 and had to pay a lawyer 10 fucking grand because my public defender was trying to make me take 6 years probation i worked as a fucking walmart cashier for near 2 years 30 hours a week to pay this lawyer

[@icecube6379]

Rays managers would be crazy not sue or at least offer settlement deals. Ray could fight for years & still not make half of Connor’s earnings from the mayweather money fight. If they do take this to court &a they should, Ray deserves every cent. If he’s eyesight is even slightly damaged long term that’s such a disadvantage in the MMA world

I don't get how Ray Borg was affected. In the video he was just walking around like normal. If my eye was cut I would be freaking out....

[@drumgk]

Bas seems to be concerned about how stressed Conner is that led up to the dolly incident. He should be saying he should go to jail! Long term suspension, fines, community service, apologies to everyone etc... Like joe said what if Connor was on that bus and got injured? Oh someone would pay dearly! SMH!
