I'll bet that was Lorenzo and Dana's first trip to Stockton. They were probably pissed to begin with.
Who does Nate think he is?

Then it fell apart when he made some insane demand like being paid and treated like an equal to the bum he humiliated.

This put a smile on my face too. It tickled me so much I went to Nates website and bought a shirt to show some support.

Represent Nate. :thumb02:





edit: from this pic I'd say Lorenzo has been skipping "leg day" :laugh:

Same. It may be naive of me but it seems like it would do the UFC better to be more transparent about these sort of things. All this makes me feel is like the UFC is being greedy. That being said, I have no idea what sort of overhead events like this cost for them to put together and how much is too much, etc.

So... I get home and crank up my internet box and turn on the old news feed and the first thing I see is a headline from Sports Illustrated "Mcgregor regrets not doing promotion"
The 2nd item is a headline from Fox sports "Mcgregor has no regrets"
It turns out they're both just cherry picking quotes from a ESPN interview. That's the sad sad state of MMA reporting.
Now I'm wondering if there is even a real reporter out there who might get off of their ass and go talk to Nate instead of waiting for him to tweet something.

It seems weird to me that the best mma reporting out there right now is coming from Forbes. http://www.forbes.com/sites/mattcon...-mcgregor-makes-amends-and-more/#270be8dbb0e9

I hope the heat isn't going out of this rematch with all this Mayweather business. The only reason for this rematch was McGregor's insistence and the hype and the bombast. Now McGregor has turned into a church mouse and Nate's unwillingness to agree terms I'm beginning to wonder whether this rematch will happen. That said I'm sure I will be suckered into the hype if it gets agreed. My main reason for wanting a rematch is to see Nate get paid as I respect him as a warrior.
