I hope UFC does an Ortega vs Korean zombie fight after the beef they just had. Im a huge Korean Zombie fan and I hate Ortega, the thought of Korean Zombie going into this fight super pissed off gets me giddy, I have no doubt he would destroy Ortega!

He slapped KZ's translator, it sounds like.

Gracie gonna Gracie.

Yea, that's how those guys roll. Scum.

oh really? I didnt know this was a Gracie thing, i just hate Ortega

[REDDzone]

^^ To say it's a huge family is an understatement, so hard to paint them all with the same brush. But yes I would say most are scum.

[Headliner]

He slapped him while zombie, who was with him, went to the bathroom...even worse optics

[AirCanadaMouse]

I've always disliked Ortega, he was very fake. Did roids (admittedly), clings to this "i'm from the hood" garbage despite any functioning adult realizing how stupid that is, you've made $150,000 off bonuses at one point, get your car's A/C fixed dude, you're not hood for having a broken A/C.

Then I go to the Max-Ortega press conference here in Toronto, and EVERYONE loves Ortega for some reason. Come on guys, I shouldn't feel like the a-hole for wanting to boo this guy right now...

LOL, IDK, I might just have an irrational hate for Ortega.

But him and Rumble Johnson are the fakest people in this sport, and a lot of people fall for their nice guy acts.

Ali is such a scumbag. He is now saying Khabib refuses to fight Conor unless Conor goes through Gaetje first. LOL.

I don't think Conor is anywhere near deserving a title shot at 155, but I'm so sure it's just coincidence that Khabib is randomly adamant that Conor fight another (non-teammate) Ali client before fighting Khabib.

Ali is a top 5 worst MMA figure

It makes sense though. Gaethje is the highest ranked opponent available now that Poirier is fighting Hooker, and Conor for sure needs a bigger win than Cerrone before a title shot.

So what are the chances we miss out on Khabib and Tony again? We are a month out and it looks like more and more big events will be getting canceled because of the Coronavirus. We are never going to see this fight.

I love the fight (although don't care for it at 170 if it determines the 155 contender). It's just a joke that Ali is pretending like this demand is coming from Khabib when he just so happens to benefit as much as anyone whereas Khabib shouldn't care who Conor fights if he plans on sticking to his not fighting Conor regardless proclamation.

I think you call it a day on that bout. As much as I'm g'd up to watch it, it's probably cursed at that point

[Headliner]

Holy ****... I never even thought about that, if the CV cancels this...oh man.

[REDDzone]

They should cancel it and see if this corona sh*t blows over immediately as a result of the cancellation.

If that happens we learn two things:
1) The bout is cursed and will never happen.
2) The MMA gods are much more powerful than we gave them credit for.

Hold it at the TUF gym with only corners, ref, judges, and camera crew there.

Just crazy, absolutely cursed if that happens.

5 days ago...

Khabib Nurmagomedov still ‘little bit’ nervous Tony Ferguson fight won’t happen

It's a video so I didn't watch it, but...

Dana won't give up the potential gate from a Khabib vs Tony fight.

Not that the UFC cares much about PPV numbers nowadays with the new model but PPV numbers would look pretty sweet

Yea, plus everyone would have to buy at their own house because of no social gatherings.

[Headliner]

Plus there’s literally no events happening in the world. It would be the talk of all sporting events
