Forbes article highlighting UFC hypocrisy and Mcgregor favoritism

Good read that sums up all of the problems with Khabib potentially getting a stiff punishment while Conor gets off yet again.

Here is a TLDR

-Conor's bottle throwing incident resulted in 25 hours of community service from NSAC
-Conor has used gay slurs as well as racial insults without any repercussions
-The dolly throwing incident which resulted in injuries and two fighters not being able to fight did not result in Conor's visa being revoked and he was quickly booked for a multi million dollar fight with renewed contract. On top of that this crime was used to promote the fight.
-Conor held the FW belt without being stripped for nearly a year (with no injury) and then held the LW belt for 17 MONTHS without being stripped.

Basically Khabib being stripped any time in the next year would be massively hypocritical and would be far worse if Conor gets to come back and fight while he is gone. NSAC have stated they are looking to punish both fighters so hopefully they get punished equally instead of Conor getting off yet again.

All 100% true. Well done for those in the world against double standards.

Khabib isn't getting stripped.

 

[DShiznit]

Khabib is getting full support by the media from all sides, he's come out the good guy in all this as they all agree Conor had it coming and went too far

 

[Cooliox]

The world is quickly catching on to Dana's bullshit. First with Ronda, now with Conor.

It was just a matter of time.

Nothing is going to happen to Khabib. Don't worry.

The only part that is hypocrisy is Connor's belt not being stripped earlier. But, that's not hypocrisy against Khabib (yet). That's hypocrisy towards Ferguson, Covington, and anyone else losing their belts for not being able to fight fast enough.

Dana White and McGregor are getting exposed for what they are.

Since they’re so good at sniffing out bias and favoritism perhaps they should write an article about themselves and a lot of print, digital, and TV media

And its hilarious that FORBES...that money magazine...pretends not to know, understand, and support why McGregor has leverage and leash. 2 million+ PPVs. 17+ million dollar gate. MONEY! I’d be biased too and so would author.

UFC & NSAC would be dumb to punish Khabib...

Almost everyone is on his side regarding the post-fight brawl...

 

[2004 account]

the UFC have been running a circus for many years, its time that the court of public opinion has a say in the matter and possibly influence a change because its downright criminal the way they conduct business and treat the sport. Inconsistency is one thing but double standards, corruption and media manipulation are unacceptable. Its about time someone holds them accountable.

Khabib is getting full support by the media from all sides, he's come out the good guy in all this as they all agree Conor had it coming and went too far

Absolutely.

 

[koquerelle]

It’s crazy they would give special treatment to their ppv king.

Guess what. I was always given more leeway at work because I was a good employe.

I do agree that it would be bs if Khabib is stripped.

 

[Jackonfire]

Khabib isn't getting stripped.

Lets hope not. But Chael said he thinks it's going to happen today on Helwani's new show.

 

[HIMBOB]

Any find a video or gif of Conor jumping out of the cage and going for Aldo?

Might have been after Mendes fight.

I want to see how similar it was.

 

[Dead Kennedy]

Let’s not forget this shit either...

 

[MusterX]

Lets hope not. But Chael said he thinks it's going to happen today on Helwani's new show.

Dana is committing some sort of slow suicide if he strips Khabib. People are fed up with Conor and the media all appear to be on Khabib's side. The potential for negative publicity here is huge.
