    A token appeal surely? He's wasting even his own time and he knows it.

    I would imagine so, I hope they start the suspension from when his appeal is finalised. Knew he jumped the gun posting all that **** on instagram etc

    Also Max Holloway is campaigning for a fight with Aldo for the interim belt, if that happened Id say I could possibly hear Frankie scream from my house.

    Time and money. Apparently it costs about $3000 to appeal - that's the fee alone. Lawyers etc.

    There is no way in hell this will be for the interim belt, that is just not going to happen, not in Zuffa land!!

    What should happen is Conor fights one of Aldo or Frankie (I'd prefer Frankie myself) and the Max fights the other in a #1 contenders match.

    This would be my ideal scenario. I have a feeling they're waiting until New York to have Conor v Frankie.

    Rory rocking the boat, wouldn't be so confident in him staying in the ufc if Bellator whacked in a decent offer....

    He's spot on though. Dana seems to have a problem with him. Big fan of Helwani although sounds like he left by choice? Would be gutted if Rory moved on.

    Rory is going to do bad things to Wonderboy its going to be like a crime scene when he leaves the octagon with his hand raised and dana and lorenzo seething,they should've given him a few hundred k bonus and Lawler for that fight for the ages.

    I still reckon that's the best fight I've ever seen.

    I thought that at the time and watched Griffin vs. Bonnar the next day to compare.

    Lawler vs. Rory won that battle and it wasn't even close.

    Did the same recently with Hendo vs. Shogun.

    Once again, it didn't come close.

    That's how great that fight was.

    I dont think I can pick one man,so many,I find myself every few months saying Holy ****'' out loud while watching a fight its a true golden era of mma,the diego sanchez gilbert melendez fight is top 3 GOAT fight for me at least.

    It is up there. The only reason I wouldn't put it above Rory v Robbie is coz it wasn't all that competitive really. Giblert had that fight won handy enough. But Rory and Lawler was back and forth. Amazing.

    100%. To be honest by today's standards I don't even find the Griffin Bonnar fight all that good. Controversial!

    I felt extremely lucky to be in attendance watching Rory v Lawler. The crowd was insane where we were sitting. Back and forth cheers when each fighter landed.

    But when Robbie landed that punch that had Rory clutching his nose the entire crowd was one gigantic ball of "oh hoooooly shít".


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    The Rory/Robbie stare down at the end of the 4th just as Lawler spits blood all over the canvas might well be my favourite MMA related thing ever. Insane.

    I was gutted Rory didn't win that fight. He was up 3-1 for sure going into the 5th (all 3 judges had it scored that way too). So close but yet so very far away.

    That's absolutely unreal man.

    I have this, it's framed now and sits beside my framed Liverpool kit from 2003, seriously jealous of yours though Gamebred.

    That is unreal. Wow. I remember there was a great pic taken at the time of the two of them squaring off at the end of round 4 and both of their noses were completely flat. Incredible stuff.

    He signed his head on this and I asked him to sign brandaos and he put and x through it and told me The heads on his mantle piece, gent of a bloke. Got it signed by most of the card and all the Irish fighters, could be worth big money now since Pendreds retired.
