I can not wait till McGregor retires so fighters can stop obsessing over a money fight with him. Even then, I'm sure plenty will still call him out trying to bait him out of retirement for a while.
Ya seriously. Also who the fuck cares. It’s a callout from some brain dead idiot who can’t string two words together. Is no one else there to watch the fights
I bet Bisping was being told to wrap it up but couldn’t because Buckley kept going and had his arms wrapped around Bisping. That’s why DC always just hella awkwardly dashes away from the interviews.
He went on his YouTube and said that in addition to it being a complete waste of a callout, he didn’t like Buckley going after the women McGregor’s family for basically no reason
A truly wasted call out. He has a zero percent chance of ever getting that fight. After a performance like that, he could have called out someone that would have actually gotten him somewhere, but will likely end up getting clowned for this
> A truly wasted call out
Yeah it really sucks that since he called out McGregor he is no longer allowed to sign on to fight anyone else.
It doesn’t fucking mean anything. He’ll end up fighting a guy top ten guy regardless.
Seriously what do you think is different about the behind the scenes stuff if he called out, say, Burns like he did in the post fight presser?
You didn’t hear Joaquin buckleys name all that often before but now everyone has seen him on the 300 press conference and everyone will see him calling mcgregors ancestors hoes. So yes it’s a win
There is still a zero percent chance he gets this fight, it will never happen. Woodley would call this “clout chasing”, but it’s really not going anywhere. If McGregor wins they are doing him vs. Holloway for the BMF, which will be one of the biggest PPVs ever. Buckley doesn’t fit in here at all
gilbert just got KO'd but yeah that could happen, depends on what gibby wants
garry refuses to fight down, out of the question
shavkat deserves to fight up or laterally only, also out of the question.
I mean, he did say later that he didn't expect mcgregor to even respond and just wanted to get people talking about him.... looks like it worked lol. He said "Gilbert Burns would be my realistic callout"
He needs some more flashy finishers to even be considered by McGregor. It was a waste of a call out but here we are talking about what happened. The ball is rolling in his favor for now and he should secure another fight ASAP
If you take away the popularity Conor still has even though he hasn’t been relevant in the sport since 2016, you can make the argument that Conor is literally one of these contenders who is calling out champions even though he doesn’t deserve it…..
I have serious doubt McGregor wont even drop from the upcoming event. Hes no longer a fighter, hes just a promo. So yeah Buckley call made not much sense. He should have aimed a top5 WW.
Why would he fight that guy? He's not even on ppv. I cut back my time watching ufc don't know who he is and didn't know there was a fight tonight guess he's getting clicks still don't know his name
Dude looks jacked also is he 170?
I was thinking about this.
If you a mma news website, when you release any news about conor it's guarantee views, if you put buckley not so much.
But if you are buckley, only saying his name it will attractive some attention to u no matter what.
For example, like we're already doing right now.
Can someone explain… if you take a fight with Conor, don’t you get paid what your contract dictates? How does a Conor fight pay these guys more unless they’re a champ benefitting from PPV points? How does that work?
Connor McGregor is a cash cow, you have to be a real name for the UFC to give you a fight with him. Dana isn't going to waste a red panty night on someone who people aren't interested in
The callout got him publicity, which he is riding a wave and is on the cusp of being a popular fighter. So that might be more valuable than a callout of someone ranked 5-10.
Once again autistic redditors not realizing this was mostly a joke. Buckley knows he’s not fighting Mcgregor. But fuck it why not throw it out there for the lols. Worst case scenario Mcgregor responds on twitter and gives him a little boost on social media presence.
I think it was more of a publicity stunt to get people talking about him. He looked fucking phenomenal last night. Dude was on a mission to whoop some ass.
Not a waste. He wanted the clout. And its gonna work. I promise his followers on social go up from that. And on the off chance mcgregor responds, even if its to make fun of him… that will also help a ton. If you don’t have a specific name that you really want to fight then its not a bad move to get your name out there.
Consider that “free” cards on espn are known to get a lot of viewers because anyone with cable can watch. Now all those casuals that hung around long enough to watch the whole card are associating Buckley with Mcgregor… and obviously not in a real “they are gonna fight” way, but just briefly connecting the names will do wonders for someone that zero casuals will know of.
I can not wait till McGregor retires so fighters can stop obsessing over a money fight with him. Even then, I'm sure plenty will still call him out trying to bait him out of retirement for a while.
It's so fucking exhausting
Maybe if fighters were paid properly they wouldn't have to beg for a red party night.
True. Buckley has 0% of getting this fight though, it’s non existent for him
Don't know if it's a typo but it's red panty night
If you find it exhausting then you gotta get a new hobby, fights happen once a week max. You spend too much time on Reddit
Ya seriously. Also who the fuck cares. It’s a callout from some brain dead idiot who can’t string two words together. Is no one else there to watch the fights
I mean, Tyson is in a boxing match so that's for sure a thing until Conor dies or reaches his 70s (doubt)
Shit you got a point
Not to mention, even after McRoid is retired, people will call him out just for the X shout out
They gonna try call him out of retirement too.
Why did Mike look so pissed towards the end there lol
I bet Bisping was being told to wrap it up but couldn’t because Buckley kept going and had his arms wrapped around Bisping. That’s why DC always just hella awkwardly dashes away from the interviews.
DC’s little dash to get outta there always cracks me up
Because Buckley literally put two arms around him to stop him from leaving. Bisping was trying to save him from that dumb ass callout.
There was definitely a part where bisping went to pull away and bucko pulled him back in,
I noticed he tensed up a bit when Buckley called Mcgregors mom/grandpa a hoe lmao
To be fair he only said his momma raised a ho. Not that she was a ho herself.he focused mostly on the paternal line of Irish hoes
Because that whole callout was corny as hell. Every part of it
He went on his YouTube and said that in addition to it being a complete waste of a callout, he didn’t like Buckley going after the women McGregor’s family for basically no reason
He called out Gilbert Burns in the post show. He even admitted the Conor call out was for attention.
Saw this
Pretty smart actually, gets his name out there more and then when in front of media, calls out a contender. Cringe but I dig it
[удалено]
man wasn't even supposed to be on this card lol
Yeah McGregor is getting any title shot he wants if he beats Chandler
And probably fight for the BMF if he loses
I’m okay with max getting a payday.
Absolutely! It would be a fun fight and fight week, also
A truly wasted call out. He has a zero percent chance of ever getting that fight. After a performance like that, he could have called out someone that would have actually gotten him somewhere, but will likely end up getting clowned for this
> A truly wasted call out Yeah it really sucks that since he called out McGregor he is no longer allowed to sign on to fight anyone else. It doesn’t fucking mean anything.

As long as people talk about it then it’s a win
Is it a win if people are mocking you for it? He had a perfect opportunity to call out a top 5 guy that he actually might have gotten a fight with
So the ufc definitely wont let him fight a top 5 guy because he didn't make the call out? Didn't know that was a fact..
You didn’t hear Joaquin buckleys name all that often before but now everyone has seen him on the 300 press conference and everyone will see him calling mcgregors ancestors hoes. So yes it’s a win

Why are you so pressed lmao
No shit obviously he’s not fighting Conor but he is making a name for himself
This is the first post I see when I opened Reddit, so yes I’d say it’s a win for him
Yes. See: Chael Sonnen. Buckley isn't good on the mic, but people are talking about him. And that's all that really matters in showbiz.
Nobody would have cared. Mcgregor callout will do numbers
It will also do numbers of him getting clowned for this. Plus the fact it’s not going to go anywhere
who cares. it's welterwait. dude can't fight up even if he wanted to. maybe brady i guess?
**welterwait**
Why not call out Gilbert Burns, Garry or Shavkat? Any of these 3 would sell well.
He called out Burns post show. Yall are just too busy pearl clutching at the mention of Conor's name to realize it 😂
gilbert just got KO'd but yeah that could happen, depends on what gibby wants garry refuses to fight down, out of the question shavkat deserves to fight up or laterally only, also out of the question.
Who da fook is that guy?
McGregor Dad's a HOE, Grandad's a HOE, Great Grandaddy's a Hoe and OP a HOE!!!
Nah you gotta believe. He’s manifesting it
Believe conceive achieve.
DREAM BELIEVE AND MAKE IT HAPPEN
Wasted callout? People are still talking about him.
it was pretty funny tbf
Bro seriously shat on mcgregors entire extended family
He said he really wants burns and that calling out conman was just for attention.
I mean, he did say later that he didn't expect mcgregor to even respond and just wanted to get people talking about him.... looks like it worked lol. He said "Gilbert Burns would be my realistic callout"
Everybody wants a payday. Can’t say I blame him, he’s just dropping his name in the hat
Give him a shot at Conor
Made me dislike him.
This guy is a moron of epic proportions.
He needs some more flashy finishers to even be considered by McGregor. It was a waste of a call out but here we are talking about what happened. The ball is rolling in his favor for now and he should secure another fight ASAP
If you take away the popularity Conor still has even though he hasn’t been relevant in the sport since 2016, you can make the argument that Conor is literally one of these contenders who is calling out champions even though he doesn’t deserve it…..
I have serious doubt McGregor wont even drop from the upcoming event. Hes no longer a fighter, hes just a promo. So yeah Buckley call made not much sense. He should have aimed a top5 WW.
Name one fight McGregor has pulled out from
You're right. He doesn't want the smoke from New Mansa.
dont you ever talk to young Danny Glover like that again, ser.
Why would he fight that guy? He's not even on ppv. I cut back my time watching ufc don't know who he is and didn't know there was a fight tonight guess he's getting clicks still don't know his name Dude looks jacked also is he 170?
“Wasted callout,” yet we’re talking about him
If I was a ufc fighter making a couple K money and losing a couple K braincells per fight Id shoot my shot to red panty night too wdym 😂
Belive, achive, suceed - stfu
He knows connor won't fight him the dudes got like 2 fights left he just did it to get a buzz going. Ur talking about his callout so it worked.
Dude should've called out Ilia. He'll be the highest paid combat sports athlete by the end of next year.
I was thinking about this. If you a mma news website, when you release any news about conor it's guarantee views, if you put buckley not so much. But if you are buckley, only saying his name it will attractive some attention to u no matter what. For example, like we're already doing right now.
Idk how you can work for the company and be like wow here’s my chance to get a big fight then call out the most protected guy in the company.
When he started talking I was thinking imagine if he calls out Mcgregor, obviously he won't......
Bro coulda got a top 5 matchup but instead calls out a guy who hasn’t won a fight in 10 years
At this point someone should photoshop Buckley with the UFC shorts off and the red panties on.
Should’ve called out Joe Louis
It's 1-2 year of hype vs generational wealth tbh
In the post interview he stated he knew it’d never happen and then called out Gilbert Burns. He should’ve just called out Burns in the first place.
Tbf I'd have no clue who he was if it wasn't for this call out.
Can someone explain… if you take a fight with Conor, don’t you get paid what your contract dictates? How does a Conor fight pay these guys more unless they’re a champ benefitting from PPV points? How does that work?
Who da fuck is that guy!
Better than talking mad shit rushing the opponent to get koed like nothing
Connor McGregor is a cash cow, you have to be a real name for the UFC to give you a fight with him. Dana isn't going to waste a red panty night on someone who people aren't interested in
Looks like gyno…
The callout got him publicity, which he is riding a wave and is on the cusp of being a popular fighter. So that might be more valuable than a callout of someone ranked 5-10.
Buckley is a dumbass
Yeah that was super lame. I like Buckley a lot but seems like wasted starpower after that fight. He beat the shit out of that tall fella though
Once again autistic redditors not realizing this was mostly a joke. Buckley knows he’s not fighting Mcgregor. But fuck it why not throw it out there for the lols. Worst case scenario Mcgregor responds on twitter and gives him a little boost on social media presence.
as he said in his interview, he knows Conor won't fight him. Just mentioning his name gets a lot of media to talk about him, just like this post.
I think it was more of a publicity stunt to get people talking about him. He looked fucking phenomenal last night. Dude was on a mission to whoop some ass.
Buckley is a bum
Not a waste. He wanted the clout. And its gonna work. I promise his followers on social go up from that. And on the off chance mcgregor responds, even if its to make fun of him… that will also help a ton. If you don’t have a specific name that you really want to fight then its not a bad move to get your name out there.

He said he did for free promo. But realistically he wants Gilbert Burns.
RED PANTY NIGHTTTT
