"500k has no value in front of the things I really value i.e My family's honor and dignity. "
I like the idea of Khabib taking part in an anti-bullying campaign. He can just show them a video of his fight with Conor.
Lol exactly
Good one
OMG!!!!! I ALMOST CHOKED ON MY WATER READING THAT 😂😂😂😂😂
"in Russia, You bully the bully"
Wasn't khabob bullying artem with his goons?
Khabib is a monster and I loved every min of all 4 rounds especially when he got dropped in the 2nd playing his own game and in the 3rd when khabib showed his stand up 0 respect, basically letting him know your a b**** and I can end this anytime I want, anyone who thinks khabib didn't purposely let that fight get out of round 1 just to punish connor is a fool
It was still worth it. Conor got fuked up. He Sat in the octogan looking for daddy dana to create sum miracle but it was too late khabib already beat his ass. But the EAGLE WANTED MORE. KHABIB THE EAGLE CHAMP.
What really fucked me up about this fight is people legitimately thought that conor was going to beat him. Like All my boys were saying shit like nah man that left hand going to put him to bed and what not and when I ask if they had ever actually watched khabib fight, and they hadnt so I pulled up him against barboza who has top notch take down defence and they still weren't convinced. My other issue is that people havent recognized that conor in my honest opinion put up debatably the best at least the 2nd best fight against khabib either way I believe conors career is over the 155 is death row for him right now, unless they introduce a 165 and have him be the first fight vs diaz #makeithappen
So u praise ignorance??
😂😂😂
@Adam Craig and he still beat the shit out of connor its so funny how quickly you go to his religon when you know thats the only thing you can talk about lol if he was in front of you you would be shitting your pants lol
@@reidyoung5951 Ben might win on points (Olympic wrestler) but his punches are like charmin ultra soft and whoever fights him takes no damage.
That jump is the most iconic thing that ever happened in MMA
The day Conor was beaten inside and outside the octagon.
Thank you Khabib
Outside the octagon ?
When did this happened ?
Lol yeah old man Mayweather would beat him to a pulp though...
Fist only
Rob McGregor has supposedly made $30 mil that fight while Khabib made $50 mil
Qwertee Khabib couldn’t take his purse lmao.
Conor’s Networth: $125 million
Khabib’s Networth: $2 million
Conor threw a dolly at the bus where fighters got injured. UFC used that incident to promote that fight.
So you are telling me that Conor McTapOut did not get punished for that, matter in fact he got a away with it.
Hey moron ^ one happened in nyc and the other in Nevada how the fuck is the Nevada athletic commission gonna punish connor for what happened in nyc.... you feel righteous enough to comment but not enough to even do the math. Sit down and stfu
I'm white I'm glad he lost what's that say?
He did get punished for that. Fined millions. That was a completely different incident. I like Stephen A., but lost a lot of respect for his anti constitutional anti first amendment stance he just took. Conor cant be fined more because in the octagon incident he didn't do more. He threw a punch at guys charging him, that's self defense. Khabib jumped out of ring on his own accord and tried to start more fights, not self defense. Everybody always points to the bus incident, for getting that Conor in that instance was responding to Khabib going after and taking a bunch of his gangster buddies and surrounding one guy, a friend of Conors, threatening him. The next argument is Conor said mean things. In this country it's called freedom of speech, this is not Russia, and the USA will never be or try to be Russia.
@@bikerbeliever8169 he threw a punch at someone who wasn't even looking at him... Hows that "charging at him"?
And really? You're talking about Khabibs camp "threatening" artem? You just gave a speech about free speech in America...
@@FrenkieWest32 Khabib is free to say what he wants to Artem. It was the fact that he singled him out and surrounded him with a group of guys acting like gangsters to try and intimidate and threaten him. The whole thing was instigated by khabib, absolutely. It doesnt get the media coverage though that Mcgregors reaction attacking the bus does, which is still bad in itself and not an excuse for Mcgregor to do what he did. That aside the fines and punishments issued by the Athletic Commission of Nevada had nothing to do with those incidents but only about what actually took place in the arena after the fight.
no no the reason conor lasted for four rounds is because Khabib let him... in an interview Khabib said he deliberately let it be longer so he can beat conor more and be more satisfied if not Khabib could've ended conor earlier Khabib is a beast
I've never seen the video of Khabib saying such thing. Islam Makhachev on other hand, he said "Khabib won't end the match below 3rd round".
Yeah khabib mentioned he did that on purpose so people could see how he tired conor out and make him tap. He said if he win in 1st or 2nd round people will say it was a lucky win.
The Nevada state athletic commission offers to reduce the suspension if Khabib participates in a anti bullying campaign.......... Shouldn't that offer be made to Conor since he was being the bully the whole times before the fight???
He did. For the bus incident. Do some research....
the whole problem started with khabib and the goat
Bully?😂 it’s a fight pussy stfu
What’s with the Loser / Victim mentality? Conor brought everything on himself.... but since he LOST, he became a victim? It’s almost a lesson to ignore big mouth leprechauns that throw dollys because if you react, YOU’LL get some huge fine and the leprechaun will get a slap on the wrist. Fuk that.
Just remember, conors a bully for surrounding khabib with 40 people when literally the day before khabib surrounded artem with 40 people. Just remember, khabibs against shit talking but his manager has the loudest mouth in the game.
Khabib: You can take all my purse, it doesn't matter😎
But he crying now

Conor literally started the brawl inside the octagon after the fight
@HUE WATT yea u
*When khabib was resisting the referee telling him the fight was over and then leaps into the crowd but Connor got jumped from khabibs brothers so “Connor started it”*...dude, that statement is more wrong then CNN on a gun issues.
He's instigated the whole mess with his awful goading talk that went beyond trash. And threw a punch at Khabib's cousin over the fence. Conor as usual getting away with slap on the wrist from Dana.
@@trashafrican3947 oh another one
@@pizou8454 *facepalm*
Conor Mcgregor fans have to be seriously biased to think it's ok to fine someone 500k.
No-one has a problem with Khabib facing a longer suspension but it is insane to fine him 500k.
Let's put it into perspective. McGregor did not receive such a fine when he committed criminal damage in the state of New York.
Not even people who have committed aggravated assault or other serious criminal acts are fined 500k. Are you saying what Khabib did is worse than that?
If it was in court - do you honestly think that the judge or state would fine khabib 500k for what he did? Let's be honest - no.
Anyone who's not a casual fan of MMA knows that the Nevada State Athletic Commission is no longer state funded but now self funded. It's not difficult to process therefore why they are giving him a larger fine.
The fine is not representative of real justice but of politics.
I'm a fan of neither but you have to be seriously mentally deluded to think there is nothing wrong with Khabib's fine.
@@Bruinsman-rh2dc Conor attacked the guy. You're telling me if a brawl ensues you're allowed to punch whoever?
@@Bruinsman-rh2dc
1) No I wouldn't. Khabib deserves a longer suspension for instigating the brawl. I don't think anyone is saying otherwise. The issue is the fine.
2) Conor only had to pay small damages which amounted to repairs to the bus/property he damaged (this was very small fine). This was the fine he was charged by the state of New York. The Nevada State Athletic Commission is also a public institution. Yet they have charged Khabib 500k. To put that into perspective people convicted of serious crimes pay less than that. Conor had to pay much more in lawsuits true - but those lawsuits were by fighters. If Khabib was being sued by McGregor's team-mates - I'd say fair play to them but they aren't.
3) Conor shouldn't have to I agree but he did retaliate and is therefore also partly responsible - not as much as Khabib though. But regardless - you have to be seriously bias to think it's ok to fine someone 500k.
Even people convicted of serious crimes like fraud, gbh, assault etc aren't given those kind of fines.
Conor probalby paid more behind the scenes
MUEEN007 So basically. You just stole what Chael Sonnen posted word for word and claimed it as your own thoughts.
In a court of law he wouldve got a worse fine than connor.... words have always been less than action and going after a crowdmember is heinous. Sticks and stones bud he deserved every bit. He stays in the ring he doesnt get fined
I love that Stephen A. Smith talks about ufc now. It’s not great commentary but the sport needs big names like him.
100K would have been fine. 50K for conor as he kept it inside the ring and double for khabib as he went outside. But 500K is way too much.
Let's take a moment to think about the fact that McGregor would have never been fined or penalised for the bus incident if the post fight brawl did not happen.
At this point does it matter? He beat tf out of Conor lmao 😂
He sat on Conner the whole game
@@ashton1999 And pounded his face and chocked him. Loool
@@Zenigundam conor got marked.
D Keithz he landed more significant strikes then Conor , what fight were you watching man fan ???
jack greenway go to boxing then if you don’t have a ground game it’s that simple
He's right... I understand Connor tried to promote the fight but he went too far and then Khabib attacked member of his team who contributed to that mess... It should have been the same for both fighters, not 10 times higher fine for Khabib...
Absolutely love the end!!! (Soft voice : Can I get a rematch?” 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Go fund me for khabib!!

@@wadopotato33 he was joking you dimwit.
People forgetting Conor threw the FIRST punch at khabib's mans.. yeh he didnt jump the barrier.. but he did more physical damage.
Conor threw a dolly at the bus and he didnt get suspended my bro
@@nirujanp.9692 .....yeah he just almost lost his visa... nothing big right?? Believe it or not I like khabib more then Conor but I think this was right. Conor got sued by a lot of people for the bus incident
Conor did not throw the first punch. Watch a different angle of the whole thing. And secondly the guy that jumped on the cage could of said anything to Conor to get that reaction bud.......
its whats happened prior to that moment..
Get your facts staright then come correct.. Just like the Khabib reaction Dillion Danis could of been saying anything.
ok lets break it down. khabib does a flying kick out of the octagon landing on danis, so thats the first assault there.. another khabib teammates climbs the fence to go attack danis as well and conor stops him with a punch.
@@daytona2924 no. He goes in to attack Conor, then as conor is distracted he is spared into the fence. And attack from about 9 different directions. Ridiculous. There is alot more to it then that. Terrible breakdown.
Dont let this distract you from the fact that the Seahawks didnt run the ball.
Better than giving up a 25 point lead.
gg
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Or that the Warriors blew a 3-1 lead.
Lol
"$10,000 less" lol
It wasn’t a court system that fined khabib it was a commission
Conor has paid millions since his bus incident and is facing law suits
It is standard that the commission fines people 20% for incidents all the did was add an extra 5% to khabib
And khabib fans are crying and acting like khabib didn’t do anything
And don’t forget khabib literally started all of this!!! By jumping one of conors friends and then cry’s when Conor disrespects him.
Digos HNDRXX Exactly! This isn't hard to understand. Khabib started the brawl and "my feelings were hurt" isn't a good excuse to jump a cage and assault someone. That's why Khabib was penalized heavier.
Jamison Reynolds so true I actually gained respect for khabib for a little bit after the fight but he’s quickly loosing it with all the hypocrisy he is doing. “ I fight for honor” then demands he gets paid 50 mil or he won’t fight, condemns Conor’s way but then goes on to follow his foot steps by trying to get a fight with Floyd, starts the whole beef with Conor by disrespecting his friend then Cry’s when Conor disrespects him, threatens to retire instead of fighting for legacy.... I’m sure there’s a couple more
Well said mate the truth be known if it wasn't for McGregor and the superstar and money maker that he is I doubt khabib would even have got a half million for fighting anyone else never mind the couple of million he did get for fighting McGregor ,I'm Irish and proud of that and yet all this bad comments about McGregor its crazy when you look at what he has done for all the fighters and the UFC the money the have made because of him the should be thanking him not bad mouthing McGregor
No he did Conor started it with the bus incident and disrespecting him and his belief and his people also bullying to sell a fight SMH but I understand why you feel the way you do and why u took Conor side after he showed the would how ignorant he is but his barbaric fans are to crazy while khabib's fans are humble
ricky right lol u literally just discredited your self from speaking of the situation. You obviously don’t know why the bus incident happened to begin with.
They fined khabib for the fight he instigated...why is that hard to understand?!
Are you forgetting the fact that he also attacked Khabibs bus months before?? How do things like that get looked over.
@Tiger Dragon khabib and his goons are bullies as well. 2 way street
@@bigmike1584 are you 12?
@@bigmike1584 they dont bc didnt connor already face jail and criminal charges?! The ufc had a judgement call to make. Punish connor for something the police already did, or fine the reaponsible parties for fucking up the ufc event...and khabib already threatened to leave ufc and take his show elsewhere. Dana white is douchey. Why is this hard to understand.
If you get bullied you will just smile and take it right?
I love McGregor. I think he's great for UFC in terms of entertainment and he's a great fighter, but he got what he deserved when they beat his ass. Lets not forget you threw a dolly at a bus carrying Khabib and other innocent people. You dogged this man's heritage, family, etc. ANYONE else would have done the same thing as Khabib (including me). Yeah its just words but words have consequences. Khabib should just deal with his fine and suspension (even though it's bogus), take the rematch, and kick his ass AGAIN. McGregor started ALL of this when he showed up with 50 goons at UFC 223 through dollys at buses and acting like crazy and he wasn't even fined for that because Dana White says "oh he's going to be prosecuted so i dont think a fine will do much" (bullshit). Khabib got shafted all the way around. Period.
He is not a great fighter stop
All talk is fair game leading up to the fight. Connor attacking the bus resulted in criminal charges and the UFC decided to let law enforcement handle the situation there. As far as verbally attacking an opponent leading up to a fight go for it. The dude smells, he’s in the wrong religion cause i am the only god and all other insults/trash talk are totally fine. Make fun of his religion, attack his odd looking face, make fun of his style choices. Hype up the fight, create beef, bring it into the ring, and whoever wins gets to brag about the other guy being bad and call them wrong about everything they said pre-fight. But Kabib fucked that up when his corner jumped into the ring and attacked the loser of the fight and Kabib jumped the fence to attack Connor’s corner. He took the fight outside of the ring and after the final bell had rung.
Adam Strapz you sound dumb that doesn’t equate to throwing a dolly through a bus window the fact you tried to justify that is nuts
#thruth
How can you honestly say mcgregor started it by surrounding khabib with 50 goons when literally the day before it happened a video came out of khabib surrounding artem with 50 goons? Weird
“Could I get a rematch please?”
😂😂😂
That was entertaining af lol this espn deal is nice. I’ve always listen to Stephen and max so it’s cool that their reporting more on ufc/MMa news
Khabib remind me of muhammad ali. Khabib loyal to his friend. Khabib will fight until zubaira and abubakar suspension is done. Khabib will return and become GOAT UFC ever.
What a horrible comparison.
possibly the worst english of all time
You know Khabib had a homeless person do pushups as he and his friends laughed at him for money?
Actually, McGregor is more like Ali if anything. All of you Khabib fans best be against Ali because his trash talk is what McGregor mirrors his off of.
@@mmamecca becoz he want the homeless guy to workout a bit for his own health. khabib dont want the homeless guy beg money to buy beer
lol wtf? Khabib jumped into the crowd. I loved what he did but he still deserved the longer suspension and fine
Conor talking shit about khabib Religion and Family and dosnt back it up in the cage it was to easy for him, if Conor put up a fight Khabib would of not had energy on what he did. And wen Conor doesn’t act like a professional it okay to attack a bus with a gang.
But but Khabib has to do a bullying course like wtf😂.
Conor started it and Khabib finished him
Logical agree but 500 k ??
@@AA_lcfc words mean nothing to REAL men. Only sensitive little girls fucking care about fight hype. Im anti-religion so fuck off there.
He jumped into the crowd, that affects the UFCs bottom line. Khabib isnt fucking popular you twit. Learn wtf business is before assuming anything. He may be popular a little, but compared to fuck boi Mcnugget, who generates more money off this nonsense that Khabib could ever hope to generate.
So... When Mike Tyson stomped Don Kings head in you believe that the$30k fine was good or bad for Mike??? Just saying 😎
Zenigundam bro you’re illogical af lol, we can all agree we hate Mcgregor but why would they fine him the same amount as the guy who jumped in the crowd and had 2 of the people in his camp jump the cage and attack Mcgregor?
The problem is that Conor actually hit someone and actually got into a brawl, Khabib on the other hand did go after Dillon but they never actually hit each other, they got stop and separated immediately which is not really a brawl since they didn't actually fight.
They deliberately insulted Khabib by fining him 10 times more than Conor. Conor has a history of crossing the line, Khabib didn't. This the 1st he did this, apologized right after the brawl.
He was ready to pay the 500k, if Conor did too.
But NSAC sent a message of insult to Khabib, with an eye-popping difference between the 2 amounts.
"I want to take him down get him tired talk to him a bit say hey where's ur boxing and smash his face" who's really predicting things 🤣
For the first time I actually agree with Stephen A. Smith..
Omar no....just no! Khabib jumped over the fence and threw a drop kick into the stands and started this entire melee. There is no way Conor should be fined the same, what the hell???
CYCLEGAMER Both deserve equal suspensions. I am not sure if you missed Connor attacking the bus and injuring fighters...
Omar No Conor was already fined and suspended for that incident. These are 2 completely separate things...lol
CYCLEGAMER Fair enough. He did provoke all this thought, along with his angel Dillon Danis. He wasn’t an innocent bystander in the fight either lol Don’t dish the heat if you can’t take it
Khabib and Dillon Danis should fight next. I’d love to watch Khabib stomp that little turd into the ground.
love that switch up at the end lol (can i get a rematch please)
Doesn't know the sport, but did a good job reading all the facts that someone wrote down for him.
well done khabib, mission accomplished,you really changed the game as you said,NSACA"Marnell: The fighters are on notice (re: their pre-fight talk).We are going to start fining and suspending for the trash talking “
Words are material and powerful people look up to trash talkers kids the next generation are being poisoned the verbal warfare is encouraged for Ppv what is the world coming to
Bunch of BS.
This suspension is nothing but a formality.
It won't affect Conor or Khabib.
theres a big difference between 50k and 500k. especially when one guy made 100 mill already and will come off suspension sooner
Maybe not but its gonna effect the lighweight division. Once again the title wont be defended for ages. That means there has only been 2 lighweigh title fights in 3 yeara
500k has "no effect"?
Is that you President Trump?
Khabib made $2 million, paid 800k in taxes, and a 500k fine. That leaves him with about 700k for dominating the fight. That’s bullshit.
It’s Dana White that should be fined and suspended. This is 90% his fault.
Tree Dillinger
Khabib barely sold fights before this one which was why he was so much lower. Everyone knows it’s not about who wins. It’s a business and the guy that makes the company the most money gets paid the most.
For all my MMA fans make sure to show Smith love when talking about MMA. He can be painful, but needs to learn and feel more comfortable about it. Did good on this one

I lost respect for UFC and Dana White
Don't know why he was bringing the trash talking element into this. The fines and suspensions were based off of the brawl that occurred post-fight. All the shenanigans that happened prior had no bearing on the commission's ruling.
Well it did if you're a Democrat remember speech is equivalate to physical abuse with them. And seeing how this whole public schooling and college Academia leftist think is leaking into our work force, that's only a sign of things to come. it shouldn't be a surprise that it is leaking in to our Workforce. you know it's deep when it creeps in to a job where people actually beat the s*** out of each other but can't say certain things to each other. Because that is true violence that can be convicted by law. Pussy a snowflakes are affecting even the UFC.
@@kingkhoilan well to be honest espn voluntarily implements a lot of politics into there shows on the low. ESPN is partially owned by Hearst communications which is a large media company, if you were to ask me id say they are probably bringing politics into there sports coverage to increase the amount of dipshits like us to go watch this shit and complain and debate about it. They are just rakeing in the cheese. All while we argue about shit we cant even do anything about on this platform. All about the money my man. #FTP
Exactly,
Thank you for having the patience to type that iut for all of us. People bring up Conor talking shit or throwing the dolly, he was punished for both by court rulings, law suits, and an ass whipping. Meanwhile, the UFC is saying the don't wanna punish Jon Jones twice for the same doping incident, even if it's In his system still. Stephen saying that instigation plays a part, it DOES NOT.
Alvaro Vargas bang-wutang You just HAD to try to turn this political, couldn't help yourself could you? Quit your bullshit. This ordeal has nothing to do with that.
The fines should have been more along the lines of $25k and $50k, and both fighters have to do the bullying PSAs to reduce to 6 months. If you are going to hold Khabib responsible for the actions of others that jumped in on the brawl, then you should be consistent and hold Conor responsible for Khabib's actions after all the pre-fight antics and going all the way back to the dolly incident. Or his sucker punch sparking the other two guys that attacked him and ended up with 12 month suspensions. Or you could just hold everyone responsible for their own actions and stop assuming humans are lemmings. I guess Nevada needed some money to offset the Jones fight getting moved to Cali.

2. Conor DID get punished for it(he got 75k fine). Just cuz the punishment is soft in your opinion doesn't mean you get to just pretend it didn't happen.

and the last but that is irrelevant to the story

People don't stand, cry and say stop when they're being bullied. The ones who fight back says "Fly eagle fly".
FACTS
it wouldnt be a triology if they fought again lol.
Well he’s saying that he wants the fight to happen again and for Conor to win so that we can get a trilogy.
I love Stephen A Smith!!!! Mr Sonnen was right again!
I still have that beating on video so i can show my grandkids
Khabib whooped McGregor and tbh McGregor doesn't deserve a rematch with him and if anything khabib should fight max holloway and what McGregor done and always McGregor never defend a damn belt and couldn't give aldo a rematch or fight nate again like foh with that BS and dana white corny is about squat
Max Holloway. You mean tony ferguson my friend. Max has a better chance at fighting midgets and maybe has a shot at mcgregor in the rematch. Could make a good fight for tony. But khabib should fight woodley tbh
@@lilmonk6791 I like both fights khabib vs would be dope and would very interesting and for that khabib vs Woodley is a head scratcer and khabib would have to watch out for his power but if khabib takes it to ground that it's pretty much a wrap for woodley
He fought Nate twice tf u talking about
@@jstiles1659 woodley has the highest take down defence in ufc history bro. Khabib would get knocked out. Woodley is to good and strong
@@lilmonk6791 I can see Woodley knocking out khabib tbh
Khabib physically assaulted one of Conners trainers, and he’s only on visa.
Ahti Miz keep in mind that the only reason Conner went to the bus was because Khabib decided to surround his trainer with his friends and he got slapped. Don’t believe me, this was all filmed. Look it up.
Ahti Miz meaning Khabib has committed assault twice on visa
, You make excellent points. Two assaults with no criminal charges filed . I would venture a guess that had he been an American citizen, he would have at least two counts of assault with injury, and a number of other charges could be filed. It is considered conspiracy in most states to plan with one or more persons a criminal act. restricting free movement , by use of a band of several other hoodlums makes it organized crime. The mere act of placing his hand on the back of Lobovs head is assault.
One of the things we must consider is public safety of innocent bystanders during these criminal acts. Reckless endangerment of spectators in a public place should not be tolerated. McGregor faced charges for his criminal acts. I would say a 500k fine is much lighter punishment than he might have received from the criminal justice system. neither fighter should be allowed back into the country, along with many of their co conspirators.
Not visa. Is Mastercard
Their both on visa you fucking idiot
Before Khabib and McGregor fought, Tony predicted a double knockout...
Any professional that got it closer
The superman kick heard around the world lol
The nevada comission cant be like "oh it's justified because conor talked trash hyping up the fight". They have to judge on khabibs and conors actions alone and tbh, i think conor is the one who should feel hard done by this decision. While it wont affect him, it's bullshit that he got suspended for trying to stop khabibs teammates entering the fight
Forza Ac Milan innocent dude who was going straight for conors teammates. And it wasnt really a punch
If Conor had jumped over that cage and attacked someone he would deserve the punishment.
You know what I would love? If ESPN would bring in experts to talk about this and stop letting guys like this talk about a sport they started watching a month ago
This is so true. No ethics some people
No it’s not. Khabib hopped the cage. Khabibs family and teammates entered the octagon and assaulted him. Pretty simple
^^These comments sound like a broken record.
Wow great insight y’all 😂
Ahti Miz Conor threw the first punch but did the nigga really think getting in the face of a UFC fighter after a loss wasn’t gonna result in that? I don’t really think it was Khabibs fault but you can’t fine his teammates
Ok what happened before fight night? Mcgregor was abusing him left right and center?? Forgot that?
shows the racist side of this nation!
It is estimated that Conor lost 40 million dollars because of his stunt. How in the fuck is that racist. How about you are racist for spouting off about shit you know nothing about.
Blue Thoughts - humanity observed through history books the most violent race and nations that have been dangerous to all others.
they're both white, one is from ireland the other is from russia... what race are you talking about?
I wouldn't want a trilogy, but you're right about the "fine".
Well put Stephen. Good man
Verbal taunts is fight promotion, physical attack is criminal...Big Difference!
Thank you
And people talk about the bus incident and Conor paid for that and khabib is the one who had started that for slapping his friend khabib got no class he is making fun of homeless people given them money for push ups they such a stand-up guy if was just a stand up guy he would just gave them the money khabib a bum
@@wwejosh1928 for "slapping" his friend? Boy what a bitch must that be...
@@wwejosh1928 he barely paid for that and that was a legit criminal act and hurt fellow fighters. He only paid $50k for the bus incident. I do believe Khabib should be fined more than Conor but $500k is robbery. I think $100k-$250k is more than fair but $500k is crazy. Even the Jones/DC fines were much less and more civilians could've gotten hurt. Or when Conor threw the monster cans and hit 2 people the fine was much less.
Conor McGregor deserves the same punishment as khabib. Promoting your fight is one thing but Insulting someone's religion and family is something you just can't do.
Alexis Cruz when did he insult his religion? He was out of line for the comments about his father but offering someone a glass of whiskey is not an insult to a religion
All I hear is how he said bad things about muslims but I never heard connor say that....send me a link to the soundbite if it exists
FREEDOM OF SPEECH U DUMB FUCK! ITS WHAT AMENDMENT?
Oh you snowflake........talking shit isnt as bad as getting punched in the back of the head and jumped...
Yes you can it's freedom of speech
I officially love this guy 😂😂
Welcome Connors other..New member of his growing family...
