Warrant Out For The Arrest of Connor Mcgregor!
The news is blowing up today of an incident that happened at Barclays Center in Brooklyn yesterday where UFC fighters were there doing a media event before the fight this saturday.
The incident
Dana is not Happy!
A view from inside the bus!
So apparently, this was a response to what Khabib and crew did to Connor's long time friend earlier in the week

Finds an unlikely defender in Nate Diaz

Connor doesn't seem too worried about it at the moment

I think this tweet sums it up well

I'm just happy to live a life where my friends and I aren't put in this situation.
Hi richardcrill,
Loyalty is hard to find now days. I would like to have a good loyal friend similar to Connor who will defend his friend.
Sure, loyalty is a good thing. HOWEVER, when completely innocent fighters are just sitting on a bus and have shattered glass rain down on them (cutting some enough to have to go to hospital) because some jackass can't control himself, then, loyalty isn't really the point of the whole affair.
Success has a way of changing your view about others, yourself and your own abilities, right or wrong.
Having said that, Connor took the opposite approach, didn't care what it would cost him, what he had built. His friendship was gold and he would defend it.
I remember telling my daughter that in life what you consider "friends" are really only acquaintances. In reality, most people have a few friends and many acquaintances.
A friend is someone you can call at 2am in the morning, needing some sort of help, and they will come in a moments request. That is gold!
Could Conner have done differently? Sure, but then he wouldn't be Connor. What we do, defines us much better than what we merely say.
Wow that is an insane story and thing to do, but hell he is a good friend!

they won't fire Conor.
I wasn't even aware of this pay-per-view until he stirred things up.
To think I used to like him. He was the perfect face of MMA, no drugs scandal, great fighter.
I will give him respect for loyalty but he could have handled it better
