    Not up to his usual standard. Sounds like something a lad from secondary school would say.

    Lads 2 questions.

    Any idea how much tickets will be for the Liverpool show and how many tickets does a fight club membership allow you buy?

    It was 4 tickets for Manchester so I’d assume it’s the same. Not sure about prices.

    Actually just looked at the ufc site, says 8.

    I presume ticket prices will be in line with london
    £40, £60, £80, £100, £125 & £175

    Would a £80 ticket be decent?

    The power of Conor and his fans. McGregor Diaz 2 voted greatest UFC fight of all time. Comments section not a happy place.

    Someone said on Reddit that Lawler-MacDonald 2 was winning the poll at 52% and then the UFC removed it and re-polled it so that Conor Diaz 2 would win.

    Can't have a fight involving someone signed to Bellator winning the poll.

    Diaz first fight made the final 4 also says it all, a popularity contest nothing to do with the fights themselves...Second fight - Great fight an all certainly deserves to be in discussion but it wasn't Maynard Edgar II or Lawler McDonald II and dozens others mentioned in the comments that pip it.

    According to someone in the comment section of the facebook post the video was originally posted on.
    Smalll translation: khabib goes to Lobov and says why you put my name in your mouth, lobov says he never mentioned khabib's name, friend from khabib are going after friend and teammate from lobov who started being famous when he made fake pranks as the heavyweight conor mqgregor, they are telling him you a pussy and not a real chechen and we see you later outside

    Still none the wiser.

    We're very lucky someone started filming in a dark corridor before luckily stumbling onto this “altercation”.

    Yeah because Artem and Khabib strike me as the types to play soap opera.

    Artem said somewhere that a lot of Russians think Khabib pulling out of fights isn't a manly thing to do. In another video interview he did in Russian he says the following (translations from reddit):

    "A:...Khabib pulled out 6 times already. He always pulls out of fights. If something hurts a little bit, his ass or whatever he pulls out. He can't even make weight. He doesn't give a **** about his fans, that everyone flew from Russia. Even getting a visa is a pain and travel expenses..., all in order to see him and he doesn't show up. And it's not once. Not two, three or four times.. Who is chicken here? Who is afraid? Conor shows up every time no matter what, he's a true fighter, he's a true champion. Champion isn't just a belt around your waist, it's mentality, it's your heart. Conor is a real champion and Khabib is not even close.

    reporter: So in cases where Khabib pulled out, Conor would've fought every time?

    A:Did you see Conor pulling out of a fight even once? Everyone has injuries, everyone has problems making weight, but one is a champion and shows up no matter what, and the other one is a coward who pulls out every time.

    reporter: You are so sure in Conor's win, would you bet your money on him?
    A: Yeah, one is a champion and will come to a fight no matter what and another one is a pussy (he said bed-wetter to be precise but it means pussy in Russian) and will pull out every time. I can just slap him a few times if I meet him somewhere, no problem"

    Khabib is defending his honor and bullying Artem into saying the words to his face and then b1tch slaps him.
