Paid Members JNLister Posted July 26, 2018 Paid Members Posted July 26, 2018 He got a fucking plea bargain for a crime that he did in front of multiple cameras. Unbelievable.
David Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 Guy with money gets away with a slap on the wrist. American justice system at its very best to be honest. Ah well, at least it means we'll see him fighting again soon.
Paid Members Chunk Posted July 26, 2018 Paid Members Posted July 26, 2018 What else was he ever going to get, to be fair? First crime etc etc.
Guy Bifkin Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 I don't care, we'll get him against Khabib now. I hope they do it in Russia, it will be amazing.
OzExile Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 No chance its in Russia. Would be good to see them do it in a stadium if they could pack it out, but I'm well up for it being in MSG.
Paid Members Chunk Posted July 27, 2018 Paid Members Posted July 27, 2018 He gets beaten by Khabib, does the Nate trilogy in 2019 then fucks off to WWE!?

Not certain, but I think Chunk was making the point that, because McG's now TBTF, he was always going to get all possible circumstances put his way, like first crime, and so on, more than any non-celeb.
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted July 27, 2018 Paid Members Posted July 27, 2018 UFC 230 is at MSG. Wonder if Conor v Khabib will end up on that, because, well, you know.
d-d-d-dAz Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 I'm not sure they'd have felt compelled to strip Colby to get a WW title fight on 230, if there was a chance they could get Conor/Khabib on that show. November seems to make the most sense, I think.

Well firstly he didn't get 'let off'. 21 minutes ago, Carbomb said: Not certain, but I think Chunk was making the point that, because McG's now TBTF, he was always going to get all possible circumstances put his way, like first crime, and so on, more than any non-celeb. Secondly, this. I'm not saying it's the right decision, I'm just saying I don't see why anyone was expecting anything different. Also, I'm not sure you'd get much more of a serious sentence if you did it either. What do you think you'd get? 5 years in prison or something?

November seems to make the most sense, I think. December (for Conor v Khabib), you mean? I forgot they did that for the 230 show. Although I don't think it means it can't happen. The UFC maybe feel the need or want to stack their MSG cards because it's MSG - I'm aware they don't have to for Conor, but the other argument is it can give other champions a lot more exposure on a Conor card. WW is one of the few divisions free for a title scrap too, outside of some daft interim, of course. This is, of course, all speculation. They usually go all out for the December show too.

What do you think you'd get? 5 years in prison or something? Well, a fifteen year old kid with no previous criminal record was given five years in jail for stealing a pair of trainers worth $100, so I think if I hurled a steel trolley at a bus full of people I'd likely get at least that, no? Then again, I'd maybe get time off such a sentence for being a good egg, and for not being black.
Guy Bifkin Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 I think Conor will get justice when he meets Khabib in the Octagon.
