How Soon Is Now

Can they server booze till as late as 5am or even later?? More likely they will stop serving booze, or run out of it, around 2am.
If you factor in you’re getting 10 alcoholic drinks maybe even more then €80 isn’t bad value. But chances are there will be more fighting offscreen than onscreen!!
€80 is steep enough if you don’t get at least 10 drinks.

I just dunno if I'd trust it going ahead full stop ha.

Its on in a bar of a sports club, they can do what they want. Exempt from usual licencing laws, all they have to say is its club members.

Couple of the viewing party's from his last fight got canceled. There was one I was planning on going to which changed venue two or three times still didn't happen haha.

Il watch it In me mates ha!

Bluebell United had the same deal for the Khabib fight too and there were no issues of trouble reported. They get around the licencing laws because all drink is paid for in advance so no money changes hands on the night.

Seems reasonable enough if you plan having a decent feed of drink to be honest. Venue, full event, plenty drink and a great lively atmosphere.

Wonder is there a limit on how much drink you can order? Otherwise surely people be taking the piss.

Lol.
If he loses, this venue will turn into the Titty Twister bar in from dusk till dawn at the moment of the films twist.

Man Vs ManUre

Someone should forward the invite to Bluebell event to Khabib and his black T-shirt crew.

Gamebred interviewed by helwani yesterday and asked him if he could pick his next fight would it be usman or conor. Straight away said conor for the money.
I suppose i can understand getting paid but amazing he would pass over on the chance to be world champ.
Also the live gate of 10 mil is second highest in ufc and sold out in 10 minutes. If conor wins this looking good he will be even bigger draw now than he ever was.

In fairness, the prospect of a career-high payday against a smaller opponent is a lot more attractive than a much smaller paycheck for a much tougher match up.

He could fight McGregor and make a boatload of money and still be close to a title shot, whereas he could take a title shot next and likely lose out on the big payday

It's an easier match up for Masvidal, he is bigger, more powerful and on the crest of a wave right now. I'd very much fancy his chances against McGregor at 170.

The official walk out tshirt is abysmal...

AlmightyCushion

It looks like a really bad charicature.

Man Vs ManUre

If Khabib try to sell that T-shirt I don’t think he gonna get much moolah.

dave1982

Thought it was chuck Morris first on tshirt

Macau sporting club/casino are showing the mcgregor fight... Be lot less messy in there

bunderoon

Wonder does Conor think that Dana will cut him loose after the next round of money fixes.

If he does, he shouldn't feel bad. They both made each other many millions.

Still Ill

That t-shirt looks like McGregor at the end of a three day bender. A fitting tribute, I guess.

Lol Conor would love for Dana to cut him loose, never going to happen.
As long as there are fights on his UFC contract he'll be kept under contract.

Go to prison? He'll be kept under contract.
Jump the cage and slap Dana in the face? He'll be kept under contract.
Lose his next five? Kept under contract.

Just imagine all the experts who will flood in if he loses.

sc86

They must have found somebody else to find there time following but pretending to hate

Man Vs ManUre

There will have to be a sit down presser with the 2 of them early next week. Probably Monday.
I think Conor will show up on time for this one.

Homelander

That tshirt is utterly awful. To think someone probably got paid big money to design that.

Tazzimus

Reebok going back to the Giblert days, with that t-shirt.
