When Conor was hungry and far less wealthy, there was absolutely nothing like a Conor fight. It was a spectacle in the best of ways. I was a huge Conor fan but, those days are long gone and have been for quite some time. I no longer have any interest in Conor whatsoever. Very sad but true.

[ARMY-epfz]

Honestly I don't care. Conor needs rehab. When Dana has given up hope, then that should tell you everything you need to know. I say Conor needs rehab not because i want him to fight. I don't care if he ever does. I say I hope he gets help for his kids, and his wife/ baby momma sake. So we don't read the headline soon that he's dead from an OD or other accident related to his habits. His kids deserve better, just because you're rich and providing them everything in the world, that doesn't make you a good father, which he isn't . He's an absent father that only understands buying love it seems. I hope for their sake he gets it together. because they deserve their father more than the UFC fans deserve him to fight. We have better fights ahead with Max vs Ilia and Robert Whitaker vs khamzat. I would much rather watch Max vs Ilia than a half ass prepared drug addict Conor any day.

Finally at Connor video I’ve been waiting for so long

[possiblyinsane]

he did it to himself, he was gone long enough for the ufc to realize they dont need him. hes fought what? 7 times in the last 8 years and thats less than 1 fight a year on the average. if hes only making the ufc money 1 ppv out of the year, it doesnt matter how popular he is. the money generated by a conor fight at this point in time is not enough to make a dent in the grand scheme of the business. no need to put up with his antics or high pay demand. this is post disney money ufc, individual fighters dont bring in as much money as disney/espn

Nothing about having a product available in Walmart means quality. It means, let me sell a million of them.. nothing else 👎

[sinergia]

imagine if chael started doing this sooner

[gagecee]

Dana knows what's up. Conor is an addict and can't rely on him right now.

[charleshamby]

Have been a huge Connor McGregor fan from the start, but I'm so over him or his next fight to be honest.

[zi]

You mean the only legal supplement Chael

[Xtro-]

When chael says dana wont meet with mctapper in vegas what he really mean dana got a jet fueled ready and will be heading to monaco to fly conor straight to las

[chad_b]

Dana has moved on from Conor so he can focus on his new love Jon Jones

[DarkLight-Ascending]

Chael, i watch everything u graciously gift upon the world.... but Connor needs to put up or shut up. If he doesn't fight Chandler upon his return, then im done w Connor. & i dont want to hear about it till a week before the fight. Luckily, last i heard, Connor plans on honoring his agreement to dance w Iron Mike Chandler. ❤

[rockpops]

Chael got this one wrong. This wasn't trying to get Max to stand. It was reverse psychology hoping Max doesn't challenge him to stand in the middle and throw.

I think this parallels the situation Nick Diaz was in. Diaz sat out for years and when he finally gave an interview it was evident that he was not doing well. McGregor is in the same boat right now. If there's another, more plausible, explanation I'm not aware of I'd like to know what it is.

[davidcagle]

Connor is so far from the fight game i wish people would just stop talking about him doing it again. He wont. Wild to think back when folks were saying he was gonna come back 9 months after that break. Also wtf happened to the connor on the first diamond fight.

[stevencorey]

Why would Dana be upset with McGregor?
We keep coming back to this while also questioning the white powder intake of McGregor.

So along that thought process... The UFC has had extremely successful business in the past with McGregor and is currently have the same success without McGregor.

Why would Dana be mad at Conor?
Professionally his company is taken care if and personally if McGregor has illegal substance abuse problems.. then Dana White as a "friend, mentor" would be concerned and lenient not publicly harsh

[Visceralreality]

Dana has probably had enough of Conor's bs excuses and pompous demands.

[PaulDavidsonFitness]

After Dana traveled to Ireland 🇮🇪 to meet him months ago and he never showed up and then cancled the fight last minute. That was the final straw for Dana. Let’s get that right, that was the day he finally accepted Conor has major problems that needs addressed before he even thinks about arranging any sort of comeback!!!

Btw… which is never happening 😢 hope the dude sorts himself out. Addiction is a disease

[Mad]

Why have a meeting? Dana already knows the questions and Conor already knows the answers!

[Espiritas]

Love Chael! But sometimes I feel he rambles a bit in between his talking points. Is it me?
