    No one should be mentioning Conor with this story. GDR cheated her way to a win, immediately have an injury excuse and then flat out told the UFC she is refusing to fight cyborg and they can take her belt if they want. Worst 'champion' ever. UFC hold some of the blame though starring that weightclass in the first place.

    Ah jesus lad i was having a fooking laugh man...

    Ah wasn't having a go :pac: that 145 women's div just gets me riled up. I'm beaming the UFC had the balls to follow through.

    Also, some media heads feeling that the GDR statement was aimed at DJ as well.
    As much as I want to see DJ vs TJ, he has done too much for the UFC to then be punished for refusing a fight outside his weight class.

    I'd love to see the winner of Nunes vs Shevchenko go up and challenge Cyborg for the 145 belt.

    TJ is dropping down the weight so it's still in MM's weight class.

    I wonder would the UFC pull the plug on him though? That would be a much much bigger deal than what they did to GDR.

    TJ would have to get to 125 first imo.

    Nunes maybe but Shevchenko is way too small to fight at 145, shes prob even a tad bit small for 135, 125 would be her perfect weigh class IMO

    yeah thats the big question, let tj make the weight and win a fight, then dj has no right to refuse.

    I think DJ would be happy with that as well. Let him get his record vs borg and let TJ prove he can make 125....then let them bang.

    I also have it and I have been watching all the Ufc events in order. It's great. Just wish all the prelims were easily accessible for the old events. I end up only watching the main cards.

    I also watched all the pride cards and I'm running through all the old TUF episodes

    Do you not get a bit bored of the UFC cards? The first 10 or so were great just for the spectacle/brutality, but by the time I got to UFC 20 or so I lost interest because the quality of the fighters is so so so far away from today's fighters..

    Not me, but the first UFC's I saw were vhs copies of 1,2 and 3. Before Fight Pass was a thing, I spent quite a while 'acquiring' every UFC and Pride event

    Nate Diaz being sued by his agent for $1.2 million.

    Apparently fired the agent after the agent signed the deal for the McGregor re-match and Nate hasn't paid up.

    So much for that boast about not having an agent like Conor!


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,853 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Apparently Nate told Leslie Smith to fire him and not pay money owed as well and she is also getting sued.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,348 ✭✭✭✭ricero


    Reckon we will see him back fighting soon be it mcgregor or someone else. Legal fees are expensive

    Cool I'll check it out. Thanks a mill
