You could be right boys. I'd thought this was the supposed to be the big main event for the end of the year card http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/other-sports/mma/conor-mcgregor-to-pulled-ufc-11517207
Even tho the fight was never confirmed UFC will make out Connor was pulled as punishment, when in fact he probably wasn't coming back till next year anyway.
The Woodley vs Nate Diaz rumoured fight for UFC 219 may be the headline fight.As a Diaz fan hope he is coming back but hate this fight
I think they will do Conor-Ferg either at the Boston ppv in Jan or the end of Jan superbowl ppv card. That's obviously the plan because now they have this laughable Nate Diaz - Woodley circus fight which is an insane mismatch joke for a 170 title fight. The only good thing coming off this is that it looks more likely that Ferguson will rightfully get the Conor fight at 155.
Hope McGregor does not hold this belt hostage. Someone mentioned the Boston PPV early next year that would be great for him and Ferguson.
CONor is coning the dumb ass casuals and will keep doing boxing sideshows for millions. I am under no ethical or social obligation to like it either. You cannot buy class or respect!
