Bet they'll all be in Vegas for the fights. To be fair I reckon Conor just picks diff people for each camp so all his mates get to experience it

I don't get why Ido Portal gets such a bad rep. He was helping with light movement and mobility which is an essential part of training. I was actually fascinated by it

Because it’s cool to criticize people you don’t know from behind a keyboard and screen.

In normal circumstances i'd agree, but i think most on that list wouldn't be of that frame of mind. If Mcgregor gives them the nod no join him on the camp, they'd walk out the front door with their children left in the bath.

Charlie Ward, The Murray drug dealers and The Dunphy Barrels don't strike me as the type to turn their noses up at an all expense trip to Vegas carrying the water bottles.

Because it's funny.










It's very ironic how McGregors fans have such a lack of a sense of humour.

Humour is subjective I suppose.

Ariel Helwani would sicken you they way he constantly licks mcgregor's ass.

Yeah seen that,he was Chief bottle holder for a while. Must be tough trying to act all flash and have a big party when the reality is you don't have the cash to back it up. Mcgregor needs to grow up as well though, he has a kid with another on the way yet he's up all sorts. Can't see it ending well for him, he may have money to last 10 lifetimes but he'll never get back the time wasted from his kids.

Agreed. Colin runs this vlog and is very good at what he does (usually).

In other news, Khabib still sparing heavy?? Noticeable marking around his right eye here.

And his neck.

Also, I wonder which one in the group is the Irish lad.

None of those lads in that photo are Myles Price.

13 lads in a photo, at the end of a camp that went so well it finished 2 days early (as per Javier Mendes) and the only smile between them all is from the big ginger lad on the left. Cheer up lads, it's not a funeral!

Ali's just as good at twitter as he is at paying child support.

There's normally a media day on fight week though haven't seen it confirmed anywhere - be utterly shocked if there wasn't one. Then open work outs, weigh ins, etc

The next week tends to fly by with all the content and hype - then Saturday itself dragggs till that 5am ring/octagon walk

Did BT just lose the rights to the fight?

No - Eleven sports have won UFC rights for UK/Ireland from 2019

BT have lost the rights to the UFC from 2019.

The Conor Khabib fight is still under their existing deal.

I personally thought it was going to be BT PPV but obviously not (I assume this is BT wanting to annoy the UFC as part of fall out since they feel done over after Bisping Silva wasn't included in their deal).

The future deal is with a broadcaster that doesn't even have a tv channel right now. So rights will be online only and talk that some numbered events will be PPV as well as your subscription. A bad move if they want exposure for the sport

Helwani's been a known UFC schill for years. He outed himself when he went on his Cro-Cop tirade on ESPN [without even contacting Cro-Cop first to see what was true or not]

When Khabib beat him he wasn't a former champ.

Ive literaly watched every clip of khabib online as ive not seen him as much as id of liked to if you go back to dos Anjos, it actually looks like he has regressed, he was striking (Badly but striking) now he very very rareky strikes if you look at MJ and Him he didnt throw alot of hands.

Helwani's had more issues than anyone with the UFC , he certainly isn't a schill .He was banned from there events at one stage for breaking the Brock to fight at 200 news
