Khabib aside, the dude who attacked Conor should be banned.

Dude destroyed Connor then destroyed his career. Big night for him!

No way. Khabib’s drawing power just went way up. When Nate wins next month they’ll be matched up and it would sell very well.

idk why everyone is thinking this is a work rather than violent dumbasses full of adrenaline doing stupid poo poo

Because they brought him back in the ring / get didn't get arrested by all the cops that jumped on him after witnessing an assault?

Sure, but he didn't attack Conor, he attacked one of Conor's corner. I think that's where they'll draw the line. The fighters getting into an after-fight brawl with one another is something they could probably smooth over, but attacking the guy's coach is, in my opinion, much worse.

Despite the dudes yelling "LOL WORK", the UFC would probably in some doodoo with the NSAC if they didn't punish the dude who caused a riot at one of their sanctioned events

I don't think Danis is a coach, just a dude who stands near Conor and poo poo talks for him when Conor's too winded or just had his neck cranked.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Yeah Khabib vs Conor 2 is gonna make a lot of money

Yeah exactly, everyone's going to buy that and if I'm Khabib I'm willing to go punch some dude, tell my pal to go punch McGregor, get stripped of a title, and put up with whatever half-assed other punishment UFC might throw at me to get paid what, like the most conservative estimate I can think of would be $5 million for one fight. $10 million wouldn't surprise me, who the hell knows, but it's "I know I'm set for life" money. Like just off tonight he's earned probably around $2 million, maybe $1 million-ish if again you want to be conservative.

I'm pulling numbers completely out of my butt since I don't pay attention to fight money figures in general and definitely didn't going in to this one, and I think some of that tends to come out after the fact, but if I had to guess Khabib's just thinking about those dollar signs and not caring about the consequences. That's even easier to do when the consequence is probably "become super famous and still end up revered as a fighter and probably in the UFC hall of fame."

If Mcgregor was cracking open the door to assholery with his bullshit, having all that go down right after a fight has kicked it wide open and as a casual fan I look forward to hearing about or seeing more people try to punch their ticket to stardom by punching other people or generally making a circus after the fact.

I don't think we'll see people not releasing holds or clearly continuing to attack their opponent after the ref pulls them off since that's got to break all kinds of actual fighting regulations and seems like exactly the specific thing to piss off UFC enough to not want you back, but we've seen a constant stream of absurd interviews postfight, now we can add absurd attacks on people within the general vicinity of the Octagon to the mix, preferably people affiliated with your opponent but hey any punchable face in a storm.
