Dana Keeps dodging the "are you gonna fire Conor" question...

[filthynumber1]

he wont answer it!.


Conor will fight again

 

[Headkicktoleg]

Dana doesn't have that power anymore

 

[Reign009]

It's a stupid question. Especially this early on.

 

[Jopious Extronimous]

"Hey Dana, will you fire the guy who did this even though he brings you millions and millions of dollars and you have no other stars right now?"

Yeah I wouldn't be quick to answer that either.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Red Goof knows GAWT DAMN well that if Cokenor signs on the dotted line, he will promote da SHITE outta that.

He talks big, but he is ALL about the $$$$

 

[Death By Samson]

Conor doesn't fight. They make the same money off of him regardless.

 

[Soul On Ice]

Smoking crack If you believe releasing Conor has even crossed their mind

Silly question

 

[Alxair]

Dana won't fire him because he can still make money with McGregor before he eventually tells him to fuck off once he's milked him enough.

 

[Boy God]

he wont answer it!.


Conor will fight again

They can’t just shitcan the guy. They lose a lot of money if they do. Not just lose money. But they actually would end up giving it to the competition.

It’s a total catch 22. People have to understand that. They’re fucked no matter what they do. Convict really did them dirty.

 

[TCE]

Conor = money

It's funny and sad though that a guy like Jason High shoves a ref in the heat of the moment and gets fired.

The bigger punishment would be to keep McGregor under contract (while complying with AC suspensions) as McGregor certainly wants out of it.

They're not really fucked at all if they don't cut him. What would the repercussions be?

[turbotime]

Khabib better wear a rain coat. A McGregor storm is imminent no doubt about it and Dana is smart enough not to fire him

 

[IBeLurkin]

"Hey Dana, will you fire the highest grossing fighter ever before you k ow what is going to happen to him??"

....yeah, shocking he hasn't given a definitive answer...

McGregor could fight anywhere outside of the US, which the UFC would more than welcome.

Bad PR obviously. If the UFC is supposed to be any kind of legit outfit they have to dump the joker. Have you not noticed the people they have jettisoned in the past ? And some of the reasons they did it for ?

Alot of less serious shit than this. Optics.

 

[JayE]

McGregor could fight anywhere outside of the US, which the UFC would more than bend backwards to allow doing so.

Well, yeah, I'm just saying the biggest punishment would be to keep him under contract while suspending him. McGregor would make more money outside of the UFC at this point (with how much of an idiot he is, that window might not last too long, though).

 

[n.diazismylife1999]

Even when Dana was at his angriest, he made sure to use ".... right now."

"I don't want to do business with him..... right now."
