Security at the Barclays Center

[Ironman70.3]

One thing I've been thinking about this whole time is where was the security during this whole debacle? How could there not have been any armed guards down there near all of the buses.

With all of the attacks lately how is it possible for 20 people to run around and destroy stuff and act violent.

I'm not one for conspiracy and I'm not saying this thing was stagged because I don't think the UFC would allow people to get hurt.

I just don't know how someone didn't end up getting tazed or tackled immediately. Something just seems off

Here is the most likely scenario. It was planned to an extent but it escalated over what Dana wanted.

I don't think conor would fly to NYC just to confront people on a bus. Now if the ufc wanted conor to fly out, and cause some drama to build a future fight...that makes more sense.

there was guards (security) down there.

but they were outnumbered 5 to 1.

...see that dude trying to intercept conor throwing the hand truck in the bus? ...that's not some stranger random dude just happening to walk by an intervening

Conor staged it, the people getting hurt was a fckup on his part..

I think Conor knows once he faces Khabib his star power will basically be over. So he's doing everything he can to hype the fight between him and Khabib so he can cash in huge one more time..

What would armed security do? Mow down 30 people?

It's so weird to me that people don't understand such simple publicity. Does anyone still believe this wasn't planned? Although I do agree that it escalated beyond what they expected.

People want to be fooled.

Of course not haha. Normally it would involve a tazer or crowd control.

You and I let's go try that and see how far we get

I'm pretty sure I can round up 20 or so drunken idiots at the local pub on a Saturday. Let's do it

whack ass security anyways .. How does people even with credentials go in and out freely ? You should have armed security at all entry points..

did everyone forget Vegas already ?

crazy fooks everywhere .. Imagine if a real gunman wanted to get in and murk the ufc bus ...

piece of cake .. Dana is cheap on security just like everything else ..this was an attempt for Conor to stay to stay relevant and hope khabib couldn't make it to fight night ..#&still

There is typically security at any public event.

I've never seen as many heavily armed guards as I did in London and Dublin.

Military everywhere.

Stadium events now station a sniper.

I'm not even kidding.

Khabib and his boys . Let’s not forget he waited till the cops came to talk shot on the ufc embedded video. He was super comfy then. True phony, rat like behaviour on his part.

You put Joey Diaz' name to shame.

Holy shit, the guards at Heathrow were serious.

I've never seen anything like it.

Wandering around in packs with rifles slung over their shoulders, in body armor.
