Totally irrelevant. Conor has never tested positive nor missed weight, etc. He's not directly affected the ufc dummy, only helped them

[@chiquita683]

You all always claim Jones gets preferential treatment but also claim he doesnt sell fights and he's irrelevant so why would he get any preferential treatment? You'd have to admit he's a star. How is he treated any different than the Diaz brothers that go away for years and still come back to the company with no grudge. Outside of the fact that he wins. You all are casuals, you probably dont even know that Dominick Cruz was out for years as the champ, you only know him as an announcer. How did Jones get different treatment that Henry Cejudo?

[@jacobbarajas2746]

@@kevinlewis8162 I agree with most of what you're saying, but that's not at all the context of the question DP answered. He was asked outright, which opponent did you get paid the most to fight, and his answer, with no hesitation was Conor McGregor. He wasn't asked, "which victory gave you the most notoriety" or "which fight throughout your career has blown you up the most". Josh and John both seem unsure as to whether or not Chandler will earn more for his right with McGregor so I'm using the most recent example we have to provide context for clarification

How much longer are we going to hear about this mythical “sphere.” At some point people are going to realize it’s just a circular building with a little arena inside it, that’s why no one else in the world has mentioned doing an event there besides the UFC. It’s almost like all this talk is just paid advertising for a venue that literally no one has seen or cares about.

[@astralseeker]

Irish Garda could have easily pulled the plug. It wasnt planned well, and was orginised very quickly. They only opened a portion of the arena but still 10,000 people would be attending. Its a Bank Holiday in Ireland with alot of festivals going on all weekend. Unfortunately Ireland doesn't have the resources.

CHANDLER IS THE DIRTIEST FIGHTER IN THE UFC. HE HAD 9 FOULS IN HIS LAST FIGHT.

[@mondardaman2973]

I get that Connor maybe partying etc, but sorry that is not an excuse for him losing fights and if it is its his own fault, many greats such as Ali, Tyson, Mayweather to name a few went from rags to riches yet maintained their dominace in the sport, my take is that Connor wasnt really as good as they make him out to be and when he fought people of his size, Diaz, Khabib, Poirier he crumbled, hence why he is fighing a much smaller opponent again like Chandler!!
