how many tickets went on sale for tomorrow?

Jesus Conor was feeling very testy in the last blog, not seen much of Aldo personality up until the blogs so not sure if that way he is all the but the way he letting do that **** is surprising.

Aldo is very close to hitting Conor a box.If it did happen be interesting to see how UFC handle it, Conor is looking for it tbf so no one can blame Aldo if he did

I'd have to laugh if Aldo KO'd Conor in Dublin at the presser.I guessing Conor be extra hyper in Dublin may push Aldo too far

So, eh, any tickets for tomorrow lads?

McGregors constant trash talk is getting old. It was funny at the start but it's just the same thing over and over - I'm gonna rip your head clean of, that's my belt etc and to make is worse Aldo doesn't understand a word. He could at least try and add a few new ones to the script!

Scooper

In fairness to McGregor though, this whole world tour must be head-wrecking. New day, new venue, but it's the same questions time after time and it goes on and on. He has to repeat himself and as annoying as it is for the fans to hear, it must be really frustrating for him to have to put up with it. The main reason people are getting tired of it now, is because it's being shoved in our faces. Everyday on YouTube, there's a new video of McGregor, a new interview, a new press conference etc. and it's the same questions that he's getting asked.

The UFC have hyped this fight to the absolute limit now. I'd say both fighters just can't wait to get Dublin out of the way now(especially Aldo) and start up their training camps.

This is true, it's at the absolute limit, thank god for all concerned there's only one left

fermanagh_man

I'm sure conor will take the trash talk to a whole new level tomorrow

ASOT

Taught it was hilarious when he walked by him in the hallway and laughed calling him a little bitcu saying he will do nothing. Agree though with most its fairly repetitive, Jose is at the end of his tether though you can tell. Wish MacDonald and Lawler were promoted a bit more!

scudzilla

staredown from london, Conor being his usual self :pac::pac:

Which could work in Aldos favour.

If you hate someone so much, nothing will stop you in your tracks when up against them.

That's a good point, but you also take more risks, and are prone to irrational decision making when under the influence of extreme hatred.

McGregor and MacDonald seem to be getting on really well. Kinda want Robbie to beat Rory but I think Rory's gonna win and we'll have 2 new Champions at the end of the night.

Just seen this on youtube ...

TBH, Aldo is far too seasoned to do something like that in front of cameras.

They've spent everyday for the last two week getting asked the same questions over and over. Of course their answers will get repetitive.
Try to imagine how much media nonsense they've been put through.

Bermudez vs Stephens has been added to the UFC 189 card. As big as they want this card to be it will be interesting to see where they place this fight. Should be a decent one but would have preferred to see Bermudez vs Swanson or something but ah well.

Swanson is fighting Holloway in a few weeks.

MarkJD

Forgot that was signed. Guess we might see that if they both win their respective fights!

Updated times.

McGregor up first!!

BOHS

Anyone have 1 ticket spare, I'll be around town all day if someone can't make it last minute

Yeah they were training together for a while before and MacDonald said he taught Conor would be champ long before that fight was signed. There's something about Robbie I don't like, maybe its his voice or something but when he talks it annoys me haha

Bit stupid that McGregor changed to first and the other fighters up afterwards! Reckon people will stick around?

Tony Ferguson vs Josh Thompson announced for a different UFC event in July, so we must not be far away from some other fight announcements for 189. It'll probably be Hendricks vs Woodley announced first, which I'm not terribly interested in if I'm honest.

Bermudez v Stephens was announced earlier.

Ah, completely missed that. That's a decent scrap. Hopefully just a PPV opener, or prelim main event though, would obviously prefer a few bigger names.

ginoginelli

Anybody not going and got a spare few tickets for conference today. PM me and ill sort them out.

DrPhilG

Makes sense to have some high ranked FW and WW fighters on the card in case of a title fight pull out.

If Aldo pulls out, they can pull one of those 2 to fight McGregor.

If McGregor pulls out, one of them gets a title shot. The other would either have a late fill in or get paid their show and bonus money.

I'd expect to see Hendricks vs Woodley on this card with the same logic.

Macheetah

hi guys, longtime lurker looking for some help. i bought a ticket yesterday for the press conference today, i was sent a qr code, i think its fake as the qr code directs me to some website. the person is also selling multiple copies of the same qr code it seems.

so if someone that has a qr code already confirm if my qr code is real, or if they are all the same qr code for entry i would appreciate it. would save me a trip into the city centre and i can open a dispute with payplal.

maximoose

What exactly were you sent? A picture of a QR code?

The mobile ticket you get is just a QR code in the Eventbrite app, did he send you a screenshot?

Can you ask him to send you the pdf file of the tickets to print? Although if you think he's selling multiples it wouldn't help.

MrStuffins

Plenty of genuine fans here who can't get tickets and then there are clowns selling them? And probably selling multiple copies of the same one? Disgusting!

Jasus. Who did you buy it off? Official tickets sold out long ago within 3 minutes of going on sale. I haven't went for the QR code option, rather printed out the tickets instead so I wouldn't be too sure. It doesn't sound great though as tickets were free.

I wouldn't mind so much them selling genuine tickets that will actually get the buyer in to the event. But if they're knowingly selling fake ones, then that's a whole different story.

Macheetah

yeah im know the tickets were free, was pretty disappointed not to get one, so i bought 2 yesterday for €20, i figured it was worth it....if they were real. the qr code she gave me is one the images that comes up when you google qr code ha, but it says ufc 189 world championship tour above it, i emailed her again and she insisting its real, that the guys at the vent have different qr scanners

maximoose

Sounds dodgy tbh. My Qr code just has my name and 'general admission' underneath it.

Macheetah

yeah its more than likely a fake.

i cant post the link, but the add is on gumtree, it says UFC World Tour Tickets for sale €20

i have her facebook too

but1er

Interesting

discombobulate

Booking flights and hotel in next couple of days. Anyone know of anything better than around the 1100 mark for flights and 3 - 4 nights before I go ahead. Any package companies etc. doing anything better? Have fight tickets.

Macheetah

i emailed the organisers, they confimed it as a fake.the thiefs name is kathy mason

i have her email and her facebook. i wonder how many other suckers she got or was it just me
