Would they scrap the whole card if Nate Diaz has to pull-out this close to Saturday?

[flakxd]

If his hand is injured (or Conor's) and the scrap the ME, would they just cancel the whole card this close?

Would be such a weak card without Conor & Nate headlining. Already is a weak card with them on it.

Where would that rank in all time crazy UFC moments?

Does anyone expect Conor to receive a severe fine for doing that? Bigger than Jon Jones' fine?

 

[Combat Wombatt]

No. Too close to the fight.



Dana probably set it up for publicity and told Conor he'd pay his fine if he gets fined.

Nate was rubbing his hand didnt look red or swollen, can we wait for someone to officially say they're hurt before throwing around hypotheticals.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

The show goes on, but it does about 100k buys.lol

 

[HDKIKR]

Nope...everything is booked and paid for. Holly vs Miesha slips straight in as ME...no fuss.

Would suck balls though

 

[bringitoncomeon]

You sure ask a lot of questions

 

[Captain_Dammitt]

Nate wouldn't pull out this close to the fight. It's too big of a pay day and Nate is no bitch.

 

[BROWNPRIDE]

They have people waiting on the side lines.

 

[gokousupasayan]

You guys seriously think that a little patty cake is going to take someone out of the fight at this point? These dudes punch each other in the face on a daily basis. You guys are reaching.

 

[effervesciata]

I think you're underestimating interest in the Holm/Tate fight. They've done a lot of publicity. It would still outsell your average MM fight.

 

[Jin Akutsu]

Lots of Sherdoggers seem scared of Conor KOing Diaz. They want Nate to pull out.

 

[Vikassi]

Holly can carry the card.

 

[Hans Gercmiov]

Cerrone would take the fight.

 

[MuddyFugger]

punching his lead hand was a pretty fucking pussy thing to do

 

[Yankee]

Cerrone would take the fight.

This, Cerrone probably saw the scuffle and grabbed he's pads and went to train for the night just in case.

 

[Username Bob]

Cerrone would take the fight.

This. The cowboy is a bad match up for Conor, and he probably shows up to the event with his gloves and wraps in his bag.

I agree, sucker punching is a bitch move

 

[GrantB13]

Why would you cancel this close? Two days away and they tell everyone sorry can't do it?

If Nate had a fracture in his hand it wouldnt be a question of pulling out or cancelling, Diaz would straight up not be cleared to fight by the doc after his pre fight medical.
According to Helwani, Diaz camp claimed the hand is fine, but obv. they're gonna say that with 1m $ at stake. No way to be certain until after the medicals are done, but for now there's nothing to suggest the hand is seriously hurt.

 

[MMA-woooooh!!!!]

Hurt or not Diaz ain't pulling out of him and nicks red panty night
