Honestly have no idea how anyone couldn't hear that it was RDA saying "speak".

BOHtox

It's clearly RDA saying it. McGregor's not even facing the microphone and we can barely hear "you're a bum"

If you start it at 24 seconds you can clearly hear the distinction between the voices

Whelo79

I was convinced McGregor said it on the first few listens but if you watch his mouth he is stuttering 'You're a, you're a, you're a' and in between the you're a's Dos Anjos clearly says 'speak'

End of conversation here! Non issue as far as I'm concerned.

boards has been down for the last few days though so not much talk about anything. I got a ticket anyway for $305+fees but Im looking to see if maybe get a better seat. Was easy in chrome to get offered at start but after 30mins just nothing. Waiting for the map to come on and get a better idea then.

Joke of a site.. Map was on for first 5 minutes .. Any seats that were seated together were being classified as "platinum", even the ones at the very back.

10 minutes later and I could see the resale tickets being searched for

Everything wears thin over the time. The same act, the same antics won't sell the same after people have seen it all before. You also have to factor in that he has been extremely active in the last 12 months meaning a lot of people have stretched to get over to Vegas once, if not twice and have just got over Christmas. Money is a finite resource and the credit union may be your only man but they will eventually stop lending you money till you pay them back!

The hype will pick up closer the time, but he does need to freshen his approach, he has been everywhere the last couple of years and its always the same thing. The public just get bored, it happens to everybody really. Always looking for the new fresh thing but the hype itself will be ramped up as we get closer, no sense in pushing it hard yet.

I didnt see any map at the start, only came on about 3/4 hours after the start. When the map worked there were loads of $304 priced seats, many together but all in the last 4/5 rows. Many $454 seats in the top sections also.

Its not clear at all, if you listen to RDA's voice it sounds like he says 'speak' but if you listen to Conors voice he says 'spick'. Conor definitely says something but the video seems to be some weird auditory illusion.

Conor says 'You're a Schmuck'. He says Schmuck at the exact time Dos Anjos says Spick which is how this all came about.

califano

Is Peter Queally the new Artem Lobov as main training partner?.
Seems to be with him in all the recent clips and photos. Is he looking for someone bigger as main training partner do you think?.

ricero

I thought max payne from max payne 3 came to life watching that press conferance last night. Mcgregor looked the image of him

It doesn't make any sense anyway. "Spick" is a derogatory word used to refer to a Spanish-American person.

Mind you, with the "Viva la Brasilia" comment, maybe geography isn't Conor's strong point

Devastator

LOL @ this thread turning into CSI:Boards.ie with all this "Conor definitely said this", "No,he absolutely said that", "RDA said this", ETC ETC ETC :rolleyes: lads would ya ever take a look at yourselves?

Artem is fighting in Vegas in 2 weeks time so the schedules wouldn't match. Artem can't be flying around the place with Conor when he has his own fight to prepare for.

I'm surprised Conor didn't say "Jaysus I'm surprised you still remember Portuguese you've been living in America for so long, ye gringo"

Artem has a fight next month at UFC 196 so is probably in the middle of his own camp at the minute

califano

Thanks lads completely forgot about that!

Definitely a non issue, RDA says speak and that's all you here. This event will probably be bigger than 194 overall. There might be a few less Irish due to money, but I'd go back in a second if possible, nothing stale about it.

This !
I would be back in a heartbeat. But I was just there in December and Christmas is just over so money is the major factor stopping me.

RDA is talking, Conor talks over him and says "I speak, I'm the King", then RDA says "Yeah... Go... Speak". Listen again and focus on RDA's voice, it's stupid that we're even discussing it.

The guy that tweeted this is an absolute moron, as are the few here who actually think he said it.

As the biggest McGoat fanboy on here,I find this amusing you think he would KO Robbie Lawler? seriously

Yeah, I know. But he's taken by far the most hits by any fighter on the roster over the last two years. I think there is only so much the chin can take.

ASOT

Just watched Aldo's media scrum from the opening of his burger place in Brazil, he said he was told his next fight is v Frankie for the belt because Conor won't make the weight anymore, so I'd imagine when Conor wins the LW belt he will drop the FW belt after officially holding two.

On my first listen to it I could tell is was RDA saying "speak". Amazed it's even become some sort of a story. If only on forums.

They should take it off him now if he's not going to defend it. Can't see ufc allowing him up from a belt he's no intention of defending. Conor will have even more leverage to get whatever he wants.

I doubt Aldo telling truth tbh. Ufc be very stupid to allow it

They can't strip him. We're stripping you...why?? we don't think you can make weight.


So now we'll start stripping people for something we think....


He'll have to miss weight to get stripped

Aldo was told that by Dana after the fight though. At that time Dana was insisting that Conor would have to vacate if he wanted to move up. Things have changed since then.
