"Listen, as a guy who is headlining and will be taking some of the pay-per-view points, a big part of me is hoping that Conor IS there but he's not going to be there.

"I can see both sides of the coin. I do believe that Conor does have a gripe. He does do more [media] than all of us, probably combined, outside of Ronda Rousey so if there might be some leeway there, it could be for him.

"But this is the big one. This is 200. This is the one you are obligated to promote so the UFC should stay firm in their stance."

No, not really. We're all fighters and we do want to stand on our own accord. We don't want to ride Conor's coat-tails or anything.

"He has done some great things in the sport, but we're [Cormier and Jon Jones] fighting for the UFC Light Heavyweight championship. If that's not big enough for you then you've got a problem.

"When you're getting to see two of the best guys that have ever competed... two of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world - and you've got Jose Aldo, Frankie Edgar, Miesha Tate, Amanda Nunes, Cain Velasquez, Travis Browne - if that's not enough for you, you're really just a fan of Conor McGregor and not a fan of fighting."

Daniel Cormier has a way with words, very intelligent man indeed.
 
Just reading the quotes posted in the OP, I agree. It's a good main event and the rest of the main card is pretty good. The prelims are stacked as well. Overall it's just a really good card.
 
People will find a reason to shit on DC for this, but he's 100% right in what he said.

Bones tearing your paper belt and reclaiming the one he loaned you isn't monumental to me, DC. LOL
 
i agree,and i love the incredulous one,but he shouldnt even address idiots who would take the time to "boycott" a card


"oh your gonna boycott ufc 200,you think im gonna just sit here and let you boycott ufc 200? your so fake sherdog"
 
I was gonna hate on Cringemier but he's right. If those fights ain't enough for you then you're not a MMA fan. Not even a UFC fan You're a fakeass Connor fan. Don't get me wrong I'm on Connor's side vs the UFC but there's too many good fights.
 
Wait. There is a movement to "boycott" UFC 200? A boycott? Why? Who are these dipshits and what is their reasoning?
 
Brown V Cain I have 0 Interest..... Tate V Nunes meh about it. ...... Franky V Aldo good.

JBJ v DC only thing I care about
 
Who the hell would "boycott" the event. This was an intentional duck from Conor.

He wasn't even in iceland as part of his "camp". He was there helping Gunnar. Correct me if I'm wrong?

The prelims for this card are absurd too, they are crazy good
 
I have full intentions of watching the real LHW champ reclaim what he never lost.

So people were really going to boycott 200 because Conor isn't fighting? Conor should be embarrassed a little that he brought douchebags like that to the sport of MMA.
 
Well people "boycotting" are probably casuals, who wouldn't buy it anyway, just check the score.
