Wow. Brian Ortega improved to 14-0 last night and became the first to KO Frankie Edgar. Looks like Ortega/Holloway may be on the DC/Miocic card in July. Can't wait.

 

Deontay Wilder (40-0, 39 KO) handed Luis Ortiz his first loss in a good Hwt fight. He should get the winner of Anthony Joshua (20-0, 20 KO) vs Joseph Parker (24-0, 18 KO) who fight on 3/31.

I kind of hope it’s on that June Chicago card. But that uppercut was nasty. Thought it was too early for him with Frankie Edgar.

lol That has been an issue for other Mexican fighters too but if the traces had been found on GGG's sample, De la Hoya and Golden Boy promotions would be crying bloody murder!

GGG will be making a little extra money on that fight now.

I hadn't heard Ferguson was out, that sucks (again)! Will that fight ever happen!? Hope they just add it to 226 in July and make it a MEGA event!

Dana says no but if he can make money he would. Sounded like Dana is pushing for Conor in September to fight the winner. Ferguson tore ligaments in his knee. Would be shocked if he is back this year.

Canelo vs GGG is off. :(

I figured this would happen. In my mind, Canelo is dirty. He knew that traces of clenbuterol could be found in Mexican meat, so he always had that as a convenient excuse. Here's a tip: If there's a chance eating Mexican meat could trigger a positive test, don't eat Mexican meat. The fact that he tested positive twice tells me he dirty. He knows he lost the first fight, so he wanted to use every advantage he could for the rematch. 

"For those who have doubts and suspicions about my integrity, I always have been and always will be clean fighter." ~ Alvarez. 

BS! I think the "for those who have doubts and suspicions" probably includes just about everybody in boxing. He's dirty and he knows it. I don't recall Triple G ever testing positive. 

[Dalton26 16,892]

Damn I love Conor McGregor.

 

First he responds to Dana White with "You’s’ll strip me of nothing you’s do nothing c-nts" and then today he made his presence known at the press event. 

[Dalton26 16,892]

^scratch that second part. Just read what else happened and that wasn’t cool. The first story I read was just that he confronted fighters but apparently it was a lot worse and now he has a warrant out for his arrest.

Heard Chiesa got cut up pretty bad, probably can't fight now. Seemed like coke rage tbh. He might have really ****ed himself.

I just watched an interview with Dana and apparently Rose was shaken up too(not physically hurt tho) and stormed off to her hotel.

 

Ive read on twitter so I dont know how true it was that he was there to confront Khabib and Khabib refused to come off the bus and face him. That was apparently when Conor and his crew lost it. Conor gets a lot of shit for "ducking" Khabib but lets be honest Khabib cant stay healthy long enough for anyone to duck him, but that still doesnt give Conor the right to go off like that.

Dana said that Conor's going to get sued out the @$$ too. Conor completely lost control.

That will just be up to the fighters that got hurt on the bus, and possibly damaged property. I dont think he'll get sued as bad as Dana thinks. I'm not a lawyer though so I could be wrong. 

 

Dana can sit there and be as smug as he wants but hes just as much to blame as Conor is. When you let people get away with everything like Dana does for his top money makers eventually something like this will happen.

Seems like Artem got slapped by Khabib/his crew so Conor and like 20 guys flew in, some people let them into Barclays and they started a bunch of ****. Conor/his crew started throwing stuff (chairs, a barricade...) at a bus which had Khabib and a bunch of other fighters on it. Somebody broke a window and Chiesa got cut up bad, Rose almost got hit, and a UFC employee broke some knuckles I think. Warrant out for Conor's arrest, I guess they're looking for him.
