Well, if JJ wants McGregor money, he got about $5m for his last fight with Dustin Poirier. I read JJ was offered $8M ... but he didn't accept it. $8m sounds more than fair. If JJ isn't accepting the $8m offer, then I'd call JJ as scared of Nagannou and chickening out.

i think jones tweeted $10m range, he's trying to do a play by play so fans don't listen to dana being dana....don't you get % of ppv? isn't that where the big bucks come in?

tbh i don't mind lewis fighting for the belt, it's about as serious of a lewis as you're going to get and they are both strikers...let 'em bang bro...as long as it's not a repeat of before which i'm doubtful it'll be.

I'd be way more excited to see Jones vs Ngannou than McGregor fighting anybody at this point, will suck if they can't make it happen.

He said originally he wanted $15m to fight, that's not all that reasonable in my eyes since he has been working so hard putting on the weight.

Compared to boxing, having the GOAT of all time IMHO (Jones) move up in weight to fight a killer like Francis for $10-15 million is literal pennies to the UFC.

If you think Jones is scared of Francis, you're out to fucking lunch :lol

Jones hasn't ducked anyone in MMA, he's walked through literally everyone. The guy is at the last legs of his career here, I don't blame him for wanting a big payday.

The reality is if Jones wins the HW belt, he's not going to be sticking around and defending the damn thing.

whitev70r 04-06-2021 11:28 AM

^ great ... if Ngannou vs. Jones does happen, we got our trilogy. I'm taking Nganno and it looks like you want JJ.

mikemhg 04-06-2021 09:04 PM

Not sure if I can commit to that yet :lol

Choose something sooner :lol

whitev70r 04-06-2021 09:14 PM

^ Nothing interests me. I think you'll pick Usman > Masvidal ... I want to see gamebread broken as well.

whitev70r 04-13-2021 07:12 PM

Just hyping up the fight or McGregor throwing a hissy fit?




MarkyMark 04-14-2021 04:13 PM

Not sure who benefits in that exchange lol, one guy looks like an ass for saying they'll donate 500k and then ghosts them after, the other looks like their foundation might be ran a little shady if you were to believe anything McGregor says

SkinnyPupp 04-14-2021 04:20 PM

Regardless of whether McGregor is lying or not, the only way Poirier comes out of this looking good is if he makes those plans fully public.

SkinnyPupp 04-17-2021 07:31 PM

I tuned in late but THIS TRILLER SHOW IS SO FUCKING GOOD!

Well so BAD IT'S GOOD

Oscar De La Hoya on commentary is coked up out of his fucking MIND and it's glorious. He announced his comeback btw

Mario Lopez is egging him on

The one professional boxing announcer complained about getting a contact high from Snoop, and is barely talking anymore

FRANK MIR is boxing a pro and actually lasted 6 rounds, and landed some shots

And I tuned in just in time to see Doja Cat POGGERS

SkinnyPupp 04-17-2021 08:13 PM

THEY DID A STRETCHER JOB FOR A FAKE NUT SHOT!

I LOVE THIS SHOW

GLOW 04-17-2021 08:24 PM

did the guy forget there's cameras recording the fight?
seems like the one person that's trying to keep it respectable is mario lopez
the rest don't even sound like they're there for work :lol

Paul > Askren !

MarkyMark 04-17-2021 09:29 PM

I don't even have a comment on the fight itself, but from the highlight of the fight I saw I wasn't sure if the commentary was legit or dubbed over as a joke.

SkinnyPupp 04-17-2021 09:41 PM

The whole thing was amazing, much in the same way a car wreck is amazing. I loved it!

SkinnyPupp 04-21-2021 06:17 AM

Pretty big


Ultimately the best t hing to happen would be UFC dies, and another company that treats their employees better (or at least like humans) takes over as the #1 promotion

whitev70r 04-21-2021 07:13 AM

^ eff Dana White ... he is the toilet of UFC.

mikemhg 04-21-2021 10:12 AM

I agree.

https://www.mmamania.com/2021/4/20/2...years-with-ufc

Corey made more in six months with Bellator then he did in seven years with the UFC.

That's fucking wild.

whitev70r 04-21-2021 07:18 PM

I want Usman to finish Masvidal


GLOW 04-22-2021 06:54 AM

i prefer the other way around but think we're going to see more of the same.

SkinnyPupp 04-24-2021 07:00 PM

Deja vu anyone?

NSFL


SkinnyPupp 04-24-2021 07:02 PM

Setting up the next Jake Paul fight?
