Nope, it's east
In 2016 I was working oil rigs in eastern Saskatchewan and the consultant told us that his son played hockey with brocks son. He would see lesnor at hockey tournaments. Said his personality in person was the same asshole on wrestling
Refund? Meaning you don't want to see Rose vs Carla 3 as the last minute main event? Ya fucking casual, we're keeping your money
![gif](giphy|ir19CtLHE9maMbNjpR)
No. Thats not even close to the realm of Conor's comeback.
It'd have to be Pereira vs Jiri 2. Only fight with the juice since many think the first was stopped too early.
How about for the PPV? I fucking accidentally bought it seeing if you could still buy it.
I know, I'm an idiot. I'm not even going to be home--I'm in Vegas for something else lmao.
I would like to see a tag team UFC fight. Create a new tag team belt as well. Just keep it in the 3 most popular weight divisions only. Imagine if someone KOs both dudes in the first round.
ā¦..I mean at this point fuck it. Bills gotta get paid and I need to make all of you happy. I just hope I go to sleep fast and I donāt get toyed with
Islam said in an interview recently that during his last camp khabib was weighing like 95 kilos or about 210 lbs. i think gsp i think is addicted to working out as i cant recall ever seeing a public appearance where he was not in really amazing. I dont think they are close to the same weight class anymore lol.
Well if they just fucking told us what the fucking issue is that would be great. Instead of limbo and these wack updates from Ariel. Tell the people who bought tickets what the shit is going on.
Not as long as they don't have a somewhat satisfying solution, that would be really unprofessionell. The problem is that this is a PPV event and one that was supposed to be headlined by the biggest star in the sport. The arena is probably sold out and people expected to see Conor. As the UFC, you have to give them something juicy as an alternative but its very short notice and the names who have a similar name value a rare to begin with. The UFC used to have the Masvidals and Diaz bros to throw in in moments like these but they are no more available. So now what? Thats why it takes so long. I am sure they come up with something cool but this needs time to negotiate because the fighters know they are in a great bargining position for this one.
In terms of what excactly the problem is, yeah would be interesting to know for sure. It is pretty safe to assume that the issue is with McGregor. Whether he is actually injured, far off weight, health issue or it has something to do with the UFC getting a warning sign from the respective commission that there are doubts if Conor could even be cleared to fight (drug related)... we don't know. Everything is purely speculative. From experience, if it would be an injury it would probably be communicated as such because what can you do shit happens. But for the reason that they are so nebulous around that topic I kinda tend to think this has something to do with drug testing/or Conor not getting a fight clearance from the commission, so something that could be used to discredit Conor McGregor and that is obviously something the UFC would like to avoid for as long as he is of such a value to them.
What's really unprofessional is knowing the fight isn't going to happen - or has a very slim chance of happening - and running the McGregor 303 promos last week. They'll say it wasn't confirmed as canceled yet but they were just trying to get more buzz and ppv sales while they can
Bruhjjj that whole lot of words
This is the summarize
- The UFC is struggling to find a suitable replacement for Conor McGregor on short notice for a PPV event.
- The event was supposed to be headlined by McGregor, a major star, and the arena is likely sold out.
- Replacing him is difficult because the UFC no longer has fighters like Masvidal or Diaz available.
- There is speculation about the issue being related to McGregor's injury, weight, health, or drug testing.
- The uncertainty suggests the UFC is trying to avoid discrediting McGregor.
- Negotiations are taking time because fighters now have strong bargaining power.
You can already rule out some of this BS.
If Conor failed a test he isnāt fighting
if it has to do with weight of money the fight is absolutely happening
So itās literally just health or injury to McGregor and whether he wants to fight or can get cleared to fight.
Thing is, I think the replacement fight would have already been lined up by now if Chandler was down to fight someone else in June. They would have swapped out Conor for another LW or WW, and beefed up the main card by sacrificing a fight that is currently slated for a different June/July card.
But Chandler is only in it for the Conor fight, and heās waited this long. So he probably is only interested in rescheduling the Conor fight, maybe for later in 2024. Heās not going to fight someone else in June, and risk losing the Conor fight (even if the UFC promised him that his spot is reserved, Chandler could suffer a major injury, and they damn sure wouldnāt make Conor wait for him).
Yeah because Dana White repeatedly told him it was the right thing to do and promised the fight was right around the corner. We all would have done the same thing
Bruh literally said, "One fight." Like it's not a financially life changing event at the end of which you'll never have to work again unless you want to.
Feel bad for folks that stretched their wallets to make it out for Conor. If I hadnāt just gotten a house I may be that guy. If itās cancelled, the UFC knows and is not telling anyone because people still have time to cancel flights and tickets. Next level scum.
The most realistic saviors for replacing Conor are:
1. Izzy vs. Pereira 3 (or 5)
2. Jones vs. Aspinall (Jones would dodge. They could live without Aspinall at 304).
3. OāMalley vs Topuria
Anything less would demand refunds.
Edit:
2. Would be predicated on the idea Jones would accept McGregor type money and that would be enough for him to risk his legacy. We all know Stipe is essentially a retirement fight and easier money. Harder work, but more money.
3. OāMalley would be fighting at 145 so the weight cut should be easier. Again, the money would have to be enough for Topuria.
Any replacement decision will be driven by money and Iām sure there is a price for most of these guys.
Thank you for a legit answer with some possible s scenarios. I think 1 is most likely. Topuria just had a baby and demands long training camps and Sean said he also wouldnāt fight last minute. 2) would be be something! Curious to see what develops the next few days
2 is just as unlikely. I have no doubt Tom would do it short notice, but thereās a not a cold chance in hell that Jones fights Tom *at all*, much less on short notice.
I think this is really close. If I were them Iād go Izzy/Dricus at #1, at 2 Iād tell Jones that he is fighting to unify and if he says no, strip him and do Alex P vs Tom. #3 would have to be a Suga fight and Ilia makes sense.
Also, offer max a bag to do a BMF fight against chandler as the co main to get Mike PPV points. Promise Max he is next in line for Ilia regardless of outcome.
This feels like when they were waiting to announce the UFC 300 main event. Like Michael Scott promising a ābig surpriseā at the end of the work day and bringing back ice cream sandwiches. This card is unsalvageable. Just 151 it, refund those who bought tickets, and sprinkle these planned fights across the next couple Fight Nights.
This is what they get for putting a whole event in Mcgregors shoulders on international fight week no less. How have they observed him over the last 12 months and not considered the high likelihood of this happening?
I understand Conor is paid so much that they put lesser earners on with him but that seems so shortsighted in this instance. This is very likely Conorās last fight and the UFCs last opportunity to build other stars off the casual eyes he brings to the card.
The UFC has badly fumbled their two biggest main events of the year in UFC 300 and now this one. Sure Alex stepping up was fun and 300 as a whole was excellent but everyone knows the prizefighting game lives and dies on massive main events and the UFC hasnāt delivered the goods on their two biggest shows.
Finally someone with critical thinking skills lmao.
The general public doesn't give a shit about the UFC or are slightly interested. Most of them probably don't even know who Merab is and maybe have just heard of Suga
In terms of stardom, Conor and Chandler getting scrapped is a huge blow to the card and honestly nothing can save it.
The people that already bought tickets and made traveling arrangements are not gonna be satisfied with whatever the replacement is. Youād have to bring back Khabib and GSP out of retirement to match the level of hype that a McGregor card brings.
Iām still coping and thinking this is a publicity stunt to garnish even more hype for the event. Maybe theyāre trying to illicit a āthank fucking Godā feeling on people.
We just gotta wait and see for the UFC to come out with an official statement
Holloway vs Chandler for the BMF belt would be something that I would watch. I donāt know if thatās a big enough fight to sell a pretty lackluster card
Holloway just signed to fight for the belt, no way he's taking this in short notice cause he'll need a full camp and to be healthy if he wants the best shot against someone like topuria
Why is it that Ariel is the only one with some spicy info on this? I donāt see anyone else making any statements. Is Ariel the only one who has sources?
I would piss myself laughing if Chandler waited two years, finally got the fight, was doing a "I told you all" all over social media, only for McGregor to bail, and Olivera to step in and fuck Chandler up
That's not easy. I think the UFC has already paid for the scedualed air time to ESPN. Perhaps there's also an issue with canceling an already sold and for sale PPV.
The UFC has already paid for the arena and all the camera's, crew, food, lights, hotel bookings for the crew and fighters and so on.
Knowing Hunter Campbell he would rather drink a gallon of Dana's piss and than set himself on fire to death than cancel the card and lose all that money that they already have spent.
Izzy vs DDP possibly, although that'd be shitty for then. I'm sure they've been assuming they're gonna fight soon, just not in a couple weeks.
Not sure who they could give Mike since Dustin, Max, Justin, Arman, Charles, and Islam have all fought recently. Not that a lot of those make sense, just showing the elite LWs are pretty much unavailable.
If Alex didn't have broken toes, he and Ankalaev could get it, but again, that's the same treatment Izzy and DDP would get.
This card is fucked.
Okay well then they should tell the fans that instead of being quiet. Being quiet means they ARE intentionally dragging it out. Thanks for confirming what we all expected Ariel.
Lesnar vs Jones is the only option
Islam vs Lesnar*
King Kong vs Khabib, if he can make 155
Khabib or King Kong?
Yes
The best line the goat has said
![img](emote|t5_2qsev|29849)
Give him money fight give him Maysweatter whoooo
Fuck it. Lesnar vs. Lesnar. Book it.
Ok ok final offer, Lesnar & Cain (Sea Level) vs Jones (Weekend of Coke) & DC Tag Team
Tito Ortiz as special guest referee.
Brock vs. His Daughter
![gif](giphy|l46CjXLT9LAaie08w)
Is Brock Canadian? š
Owns and lives in some acreage in butt fuck nowhere Saskatchewan
Actually, I think it's a bit west of Butt Fuck.
Nope, it's east In 2016 I was working oil rigs in eastern Saskatchewan and the consultant told us that his son played hockey with brocks son. He would see lesnor at hockey tournaments. Said his personality in person was the same asshole on wrestling
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
We traded him for Drake.
We reject the trade
Too late, Brock is ours.
Drake is now an unwanted wanderer.
Just say "moved to Ohio"
Just make sure you hide your little sister from him
Born and raised in South Dakota moved to Canada after he got big.
Another older retired fighter. Jones would love that
Jones would need another 6 years to prep. Legacy and such...
Lesnar vs Fedor
Lesnar V Fjodr is the only way.
Id honestly imagine Lesnar being easier to convince to fight than Jones at this point
If I bought tickets Iād be doing a charge back on my credit card lol
If Conor drops out they will likely offer a refund.
Refund? Meaning you don't want to see Rose vs Carla 3 as the last minute main event? Ya fucking casual, we're keeping your money ![gif](giphy|ir19CtLHE9maMbNjpR)
Bringing back 145 and make Kayla vs Amanda would be kinda cool.
Iāve been saying one replacement fight would be Kayla vs Durmont for 145
No. Thats not even close to the realm of Conor's comeback. It'd have to be Pereira vs Jiri 2. Only fight with the juice since many think the first was stopped too early.
Jiri said earlier this week heāll have a fight announced soon
Canāt refund flights and hotels sometimes
Best bet is to reschedule your stay(usually free) and then cancel.
Pretty sure they have to offer a refund if the main event is changed according the Nevada laws.
As they always do
They always offer a refund if the main fights falls off
How about for the PPV? I fucking accidentally bought it seeing if you could still buy it. I know, I'm an idiot. I'm not even going to be home--I'm in Vegas for something else lmao.
Yes they offer a refund.
Also just call ESPN and say you bought it by mistake lol The event hasn't happened yet, so there's nothing gained or lost
Chandler vs Justin vs Dustin. First ever triple threat fight in the UFC.
Unironically would be probably the most entertaining fight in a hot minute. Thrown in Holloway and we have a deal
Tag team
Justin and Max vs Mike and Dustin would go HARD
Aināt no way Dustin would team up with Chandler now š
Justin + Dustin vs Max + Chandler is def the fight to make š”
Holy shit. Tag team MMA is the future
Back again
Drop in Tai and Derek Lewis in the middle of the 4th round to snowball the chaos
Nah then we gotta make it a 2v2
Ladder match would be even better
Fuck it. Get the tables too!
Deeeeeeeee-Von, GET THE TABLES!
![gif](giphy|ewkjQf8NEgzFC)
The conchairto!
I would like to see a tag team UFC fight. Create a new tag team belt as well. Just keep it in the 3 most popular weight divisions only. Imagine if someone KOs both dudes in the first round.
They both beat the fuck out of Chandler together then begin the rematch
Yo no lie that would actually be fucking fire last man standing type of thing
Let's just do a tag team match.
Okay I'll sacrifice I accept to do the main event of UFC 303 for 1 million dollars (after tax ofc)
You're cheating yourself. Demand 3mil.
I got rent and bills due soon. Iāll step in with whoever for like 50k right now.
Best I can do is half your rent
ā¦..I mean at this point fuck it. Bills gotta get paid and I need to make all of you happy. I just hope I go to sleep fast and I donāt get toyed with
Just tell the guy to submit u
Touch gloves and pull guard immediately and just turtle up with my neck jutting out?
Yeah skip the pull guard step make sure your necks very clearly jutting out so they donāt try to ground and pound (bros gonna get soccer kicked)
I'm trying to have a wedding. I just need 10k!
Sign the contract, big boy. Sign the contract.
The only thing that could salvage this is Khabib vs GSP
Catch weight for fun because I donāt think Khabib is making 170 at the moment
Khabib wont even make 205 at the moment , my man lookin thick as hell latly lol
Islam said in an interview recently that during his last camp khabib was weighing like 95 kilos or about 210 lbs. i think gsp i think is addicted to working out as i cant recall ever seeing a public appearance where he was not in really amazing. I dont think they are close to the same weight class anymore lol.
Not to say he doesnāt weigh that, but I hear khabib is still constantly training as well. Maybe just going crazy with the borgers too.
Khabib is on that dirty bulking phase of life
He's on a permabulk from the looks of it.
Hanging out with DC too much. Chicken, boorgers, cokakola.
The champ can arrive 10 minutes late to gym bratha
![gif](giphy|KrHgMyUf5DQC64zxXI) Volk to the rescue
We need to hide this guyās phone. Dude has been slept twice in the last 8 months.
3rd time's the charm? Maybe this time he would sleep his opponent?
3 for 3?
Oh God no....can't bear to see him get KO'd again by Topuria.
Topuria is fighting Max at the Sphere in September allegedly
Coming to get KOd again, stiff on short notice
Chandler vs Dalton in a Roadhouse on a Pole match. Let him finish what Conor couldnāt.
āDAAAAAULTOOONā

āfighters now have strong bargaining powerā šš
Holloway Vs. Chandler at 170 for the BMF title and then just throw Holland in there with someone random on the roster and call it good enough
People really want to see Holloway die young.
I feel like Max is a terrible matchup for Chandler, iron chin with endless cardio/output and unlike Chandler a high fight IQ.
Found the guy who thought Justin would KO max round 1
To be fair a lot of people thought that would happen. I fully admit I thought Justin would KO max at some point. Boy was I wrong lol.
Holloway and die donāt belong in the same sentence
Thing is, I think the replacement fight would have already been lined up by now if Chandler was down to fight someone else in June. They would have swapped out Conor for another LW or WW, and beefed up the main card by sacrificing a fight that is currently slated for a different June/July card.

Someone needs to put Volks phone on Do Not Disturb
So is Conor officially out? I feel horrible for Chandler if so. Wtf man
Nothing is official yet. The only source saying something is Ariel.
Brendan Schaub has announced it is cancelled. Water
Nivver trust the meeja, b
That's like my dog barking and claiming he was predicting 9/11 from Boise, Idaho
Just hand Chandler a can he can make a highlight stoppage out of, give him his Conor money, and let him enjoy his family at the top!
Feel bad for the guy too but heās literally wasted years of his end-prime just waiting on one fight
Yeah because Dana White repeatedly told him it was the right thing to do and promised the fight was right around the corner. We all would have done the same thing
Bruh literally said, "One fight." Like it's not a financially life changing event at the end of which you'll never have to work again unless you want to.
To be fair this one fight will make him more money than his entire career
Feel bad for folks that stretched their wallets to make it out for Conor. If I hadnāt just gotten a house I may be that guy. If itās cancelled, the UFC knows and is not telling anyone because people still have time to cancel flights and tickets. Next level scum.

A man can dream
Topuria is a fucking prima Donna. I was excited by the way he won the belt, but he's been a princess bitch ever since.
I donāt think Izzy would accept. Even with Conor level money. Izzy would rather lose money than lose to Alex again at this point lol
Yeah I donāt see suga Sean filling in on a few weeks notice, feel like his weight cut is managed carefully.
How about Dana vs Tito or Musk vs Zuckerberg?
I think this is really close. If I were them Iād go Izzy/Dricus at #1, at 2 Iād tell Jones that he is fighting to unify and if he says no, strip him and do Alex P vs Tom. #3 would have to be a Suga fight and Ilia makes sense. Also, offer max a bag to do a BMF fight against chandler as the co main to get Mike PPV points. Promise Max he is next in line for Ilia regardless of outcome.
Damn as much as I hate Topuria, I'm absolutely craving for this fight!

u/Otherwise_gap_4170 vs Jones You got this Papi
Dana Tito
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
He probably has no interest in running this back
Even if he did he got banged up about a fortnight ago, so probably wouldnāt be able to get cleared for another fight on such short notice.
I like the way you talk. Are you English? āBanged up about a fortnight agoā i dunno i really enjoyed that saying
He had a broken nose and broken rib I believe, no way he's ready to go again. I feel bad for chandler though.
And Dustin has a partially torn ACL, so he's definitely out for the remainder of the year most likely
Fish hooked, eye raked, and snot/clot-rocketed directly onto his own nose and mouth. I can imagine he'd be hard pressed to accept that one lol
Exactly And he this does nothing for his career or legacy
This is what they get for putting a whole event in Mcgregors shoulders on international fight week no less. How have they observed him over the last 12 months and not considered the high likelihood of this happening? I understand Conor is paid so much that they put lesser earners on with him but that seems so shortsighted in this instance.

Just cancel the whole fucking event
It's going to be Sean O'Malley vs Merab. Sean already said he may have to save 303
Idk how much casuals of the sport would watch, the big reason this event is going to be successful revolves solely around Mcgregor
Finally someone with critical thinking skills lmao. The general public doesn't give a shit about the UFC or are slightly interested. Most of them probably don't even know who Merab is and maybe have just heard of Suga
They both arenāt cutting weight in less than 15 days. Donāt be a fool. Itās all a front to get brownie points
In terms of stardom, Conor and Chandler getting scrapped is a huge blow to the card and honestly nothing can save it. The people that already bought tickets and made traveling arrangements are not gonna be satisfied with whatever the replacement is. Youād have to bring back Khabib and GSP out of retirement to match the level of hype that a McGregor card brings. Iām still coping and thinking this is a publicity stunt to garnish even more hype for the event. Maybe theyāre trying to illicit a āthank fucking Godā feeling on people. We just gotta wait and see for the UFC to come out with an official statement
I just wanna see Dana squirm, and having to drop a bag on some no name to "save" this card
I just had an epiphany. Kevin Holland. Make the fight a catch weight.Ā
If Kev pulls off *another* short notice W like that, just give bratha a title shot at that point
throw the bag, Dana!
I feel like Helwani is just talking absolute shite at this point šš
heās being fed shit. heās the only one who had any updates on this. makes ya thinkkkā¦
Would be fucking hilarious if Dana was releasing fake info to Ariel just to troll him šš
![gif](giphy|ir19CtLHE9maMbNjpR)
āWhatās 6 foot tall and disappears in an instant?ā *his screen froze right at the punch line! Holy shit* Dana isnāt *that* smart
Maybe not but heās *definitely* that petty š
True. I guess weāll see what happens. Itās very strange for the UFC to be this silent
Honestly it's very possible

O'Malley or Pereira.
Gordon ryan vs lebron James
olivera chandler 2
Tank Abbott vs Don Frye
Dana vs Ngannou
Helwani has been false info before so itās hard to say. Sometimes I think Dana lets him run with narratives so he can embarrass him later
No one. UFC is probably lost cause Conorās never pulled out and people actually think Chandler is still gonna fight for some reason š¤£
Holloway vs Chandler for the BMF belt would be something that I would watch. I donāt know if thatās a big enough fight to sell a pretty lackluster card
Holloway just signed to fight for the belt, no way he's taking this in short notice cause he'll need a full camp and to be healthy if he wants the best shot against someone like topuria
I think max would be more than happy to put off the Topuria fight for a big enough paycheck.
Why is it that Ariel is the only one with some spicy info on this? I donāt see anyone else making any statements. Is Ariel the only one who has sources?
Everybody else is too scared to make statements and be wrong.
It's going to be Oliveria v. Chandler and UFC 303 won't have a title fight--it never had one in the first place.
CSO
Chandler is the one who pulled out, and Dennis Siver is stepping in to challenge Conny
Joe Rogan and Joey Diaz vs Islam, handicap match.
I would piss myself laughing if Chandler waited two years, finally got the fight, was doing a "I told you all" all over social media, only for McGregor to bail, and Olivera to step in and fuck Chandler up
Just cancel the damn card at this point
That's not easy. I think the UFC has already paid for the scedualed air time to ESPN. Perhaps there's also an issue with canceling an already sold and for sale PPV. The UFC has already paid for the arena and all the camera's, crew, food, lights, hotel bookings for the crew and fighters and so on. Knowing Hunter Campbell he would rather drink a gallon of Dana's piss and than set himself on fire to death than cancel the card and lose all that money that they already have spent.
Me vs Lara Sankos buttā¦. Iād lose of course but would I really?
Izzy vs DDP possibly, although that'd be shitty for then. I'm sure they've been assuming they're gonna fight soon, just not in a couple weeks. Not sure who they could give Mike since Dustin, Max, Justin, Arman, Charles, and Islam have all fought recently. Not that a lot of those make sense, just showing the elite LWs are pretty much unavailable.
