Dana White UFC 229 Post-fight Press Conference

UFC president Dana White addresses the media after the melee sparked by Khabib Nurmagomedov attacking Conor McGregor’s team outside the cage at UFC 229. White says in his 18 years promoting with the company, this was the craziest moment. He expresses his disappointment with how everything unfolded, and doesn’t care about the PPV numbers.

I found Connor's strategy of blocking Khabib's punches with his face quite interesting.

[kurstone]

Conor did his thing. Khabib did his. UFC promoted it. You cant light a fire and cry about being burnt afterwards.

2018: “ the guys who jumped in will never fight here”
2022: A guy who jumped in is champion 🤣

Dana "It's was DI$$$GU$$$TING" White

[swimmingtoaster]

“Islam will never fight here” 4 years later he’s fighting for the belt

Not condoning Khabib's post fight behaviour but this is what happens when you try to promote the UFC as though its WWE.

[HitBiggest]

He has to appear very disappointed because of the athletic commission but he’s really having a party inside 😂

[northernbear]

This is what the UFC gets for allowing Conor to do whatever he wants, insult khabib's family, attack the bus, while Khabib could do nothing because the UFC was protecting Conor their cash cow. They created this narrative. Khabib was treated like garbage leading up to the fight, respect needs to be shown to the fighters.

McGregor tried to attack Aldo.

McGregor threw bottles at Diaz.

McGregor attacked the bus and nearly blinded a person.

McGregor insulted Khabib’s dad and mocked his religion.

Bunch of hypocrites. No one calls him out for this.

Your boy got smashed. Just take the L. 27-0

"Governor running out of a building isn't good." still cracks me up.

[lugzj]

All the craziness aside, lets not forget that Conor got a PROPER ass whooping....

UFC 230: Hell in a cell Table, Ladders, and Chairs rematch

[Algerian-Boucif]

For all the McChicken fan boys...

McGregor;
- Jumped fence and went after Aldo.
- Threw bottles at Diaz.
- Jumped fence at friends fight, interrupting an injured opponent from receiving medical attention, attacks referee.
- Attacks a bus with his whole team, nearly blinds someone.

(keeps two belts that technically he doesn't really hold and has never defended)

Khabib;
- jumps at McGregor's team on his own.

(Khabib 27-0) Greatest Humble Number#1 Champion

[fredrickwilliams]

Nothing like this has never happened? Didnt Conor bring 30 mofos to attack this dude bypassing security and putting non fighters and fighters in danger. That shit was 10 times worse than what just happened.

[tyreesesimons]

3:17 “they’ll never fight here” 5 years later islam is the lightweight champ

[michaelfox]

Surprised dana is doing a post interview and not blowing Conor!

[darksydesamy]

After months of gas lighting by the UFC and Conor, Dana is acting surprised that Khabib came and smashed Conor and wanted to smash his other disrespectful team mate.

[jaygeeoh]

"His legacy is money, my legacy is smash" Khabib Nurmagomedov speaking on Conor McGregor. Khabib is the realest in the MMA business, he handled his business in the octagon and then he went and made McGregor and co. pay for the disrespect shown to his, team, country, family & religion.

*Dana's disappointed because Conor lost. End of story*
