I'm not saying he's not a huge draw, that's obvious. At 205 it was a bunch of people pretending their Irish. Lol There was one guy actually from Ireland, he said he's terrified to see McGregor fight Khabib. I thought that was interesting.

Anyway, my argument was that 205 without McGregor would have been just as big. Which is also debatable, because there will never be another 205 without McGregor. It's kind of pointless to argue.

There's disliking COnor then there's thinking he isn't a huge fucking draw. Come on.

That stacking 205 to the tits still couldn't outdo Nate vs Conor 2 because people cared more about Conor trying to avenge his loss than Wonderboy, Woodley, Roidy Romero, Joanna Chunjayguygrfs, Karol etc

NEW YORK – Saturday’s UFC 205 event drew an announced attendance of 20,427 and a live gate of $17.7 million, which shattered the UFC’s previous live gate record and set a new venue record for Madison Square Garden.


We're going to go around in circles here. Lol

Barnett suspension news non existent on the net.
I guess he was on tna wrestling and he wasn't supposed to be because of his contract.
I hope he comes back but I think he might be done.

That has what to do with it having the same turnout with or without McNugget?

If you don't think 205 would have broken all the records it did without Conor you're crazy.

Maybe not, but 205 would have been just as big without Conor.

I was disappointed when they announced Conor for 205.

Re: General UFC/MMA discussion, news, updates, etc.

lets see how much mcncugget can sell ppv wise when the card isnt completely stacked to the ceiling

if you take any card that mcnugget was one and take him off it, garunteed it would be a lot of ppv buys without him

i give him about like 300-400 thousands of the actually ppv that he brings in

You think 202 would sell 1.2 million without Conor? lmao
