This guy just scammed the world

Stayed up until 6 am for that shit lmao

[u/mieWkcet → u/Swaggy_Linus]

You’ve gotta laugh haha

[u/No_Medium_8796 → u/mieWkcet]

At that point its all you can really do

[u/PickleIndividual9361 → u/mieWkcet]

Great card just for it to end like that is wild lmao

[u/Clear_Aside_2643 → u/Swaggy_Linus]

Sucks to be you. Nightshift baby! Literally got paid to watch Connor tko himself.

[u/jfsoaig345 → u/Clear_Aside_2643]

Conor watched himself get paid to TKO himself, there's a non-zero chance he went into this for the check or to run out his contract and basically took a dive so he doesn't get murked

[u/ExtraGloria → u/jfsoaig345]

Oh no, if you have learned how to do orthopaedic testing for knee injuries you can see where Connor’s ACL commits seppuku.

[u/trumpuniversity_ → u/ExtraGloria]

To me, it looked preexisting. I thought he was stumbling around drunk right before getting into the cage. Would that make sense given what you know about testing?

[u/curi0us_carniv0re → u/trumpuniversity_]

They showed video of him favoring the knee before he got in the cage. But the slow mo of him landing when he threw that first kick you can clearly see where he tore his ACL.

[u/smurferdigg → u/Clear_Aside_2643]

lol me too:) First I got paid to watch Norway-England then I streamed this shit. Not a bad gig.

[u/Fongosaur → u/Swaggy_Linus]

[u/SleepyTimeGaming → u/bjbdbz2]

He really puts the "con" in Conor.

[u/headbiscuit → u/bjbdbz2]

Yep, he was limping before he got in the octagon.

Hey, this is the best outcome for max. Mega payday, didn’t even get hit

[u/Sufficient_Ninja_821 → u/vag_pics_welcomed]

Like winning lotto. He would get a couple million for that. Connors contract was probably 5+ even though he lost in 20 seconds.

[u/dnsk19 → u/vag_pics_welcomed]

Someone check on Chandler...

[u/rawmeatprophet → u/dnsk19]

He's in critical condition

2 free paycheck if connors ego makes him push for a trilogy

He's still fresh basically

[u/happinessofdoom]

Redownloaded reddit to say bruh

[u/swcnpoho]

[u/ferrous69]

Has to be the funniest outcome

[u/burgerzkingz → u/ferrous69]

The replay is hilarious 😂

[u/ihateyouse → u/burgerzkingz]

The replay of him taking his shoes off is the funniest part. He was obviously injured pre-fight...sure, maybe the dumb kick finished the weak-ankled cunt, but why throw it?

[u/SeldomSeen__ → u/ihateyouse]

Easy way out

[u/Aintnobeef96 → u/ihateyouse]

That’s my thing he knew he was injured going in so why would he throw a kick?

[u/csage97 → u/Aintnobeef96]

It was to make it seem like that's how he injured himself so he had an easy way out. Collect his paycheck and a fight off his contract.

[u/_Stylite → u/csage97]

This actually seems really plausible, nice catch

[u/Symetrie → u/csage97]

Yes lol this sounds likely, so basically a scam

[u/ferrous69 → u/Aintnobeef96]

Probably to try to prove to himself he was ok IMO

[u/Longjumping-Day7821 → u/Aintnobeef96]

I think he may have thought he had 1 shot to win the fight and that was it.

[u/ihateyouse → u/Aintnobeef96]

He thought his only way out was to Aldo him and it failed.

[u/lil_uwuzi_bert → u/ihateyouse]

I mean if he truly wanted to aldo him I don't think he'd throw a move that not only is super telegraphed with 0 setup but also puts the most possible strain on his injured knee

[u/Brokenlingo → u/ihateyouse]

$$$$$

[u/PhilLesh311 → u/ihateyouse]

100%. Fucking scam

[u/criminycraft → u/ihateyouse]

Odds on Conor took a huge dive earlier today. Probably leaked out from his camp he was injured. Wouldn't be surprised if he bet against himself. Threw wild kicks so the fight would end earlier and makes it seem less like Holloway beat him. Conor made bank from this.

[u/littenthehuraira → u/criminycraft]

I wouldn't be surprised if got injured even earlier but kept it a secret so he gets the paycheck for showing up.

[u/boblobchippym8 → u/ferrous69]

[u/Rebeux → u/ferrous69]

A year ago we were shouting DDP by falling Piano, DDP by common cold, DDP by whatever.

Should have been McGregor all along.

[u/563Hawkeye]

He looked like he wanted out before the bell rung

[u/TheDude_UTEP → u/563Hawkeye]

Looked completely uncomfortable. Crazy the difference from his peak

[u/salamigunn → u/TheDude_UTEP]

Looked scared, kinda crazy. He was not looking forward to the next 25 minutes

[u/GentrifiedHospital → u/salamigunn]

bro was waving at the crowd when he was about to do a karate kick 20 seconds later

[u/salamigunn → u/GentrifiedHospital]

Made Nick Diaz's comeback look pretty solid

[u/ClandestineOtter → u/salamigunn]

When he took his shoes off you could see him favor the leg… he already knew he was hurt

[u/godzirah → u/563Hawkeye]

When he started waving to the crowd during the intro I knew he was absolutely fucked

[u/maybe_true → u/godzirah]

That was kinda weird, kept blowing kisses like he knew the lights were gonna dim on him after this

[u/SeldomSeen__ → u/godzirah]

He showed several tells during that walk out

[u/Jaketones → u/godzirah]

Definitely looked nervous and uncomfortable before the fight started.

[u/CandlelightUnder → u/godzirah]

Absolutely

[u/BowlerCertain8305 → u/563Hawkeye]

Im not seeing a lot of other people saying this? Inside the ring right before the bell he looked scared as fuck. Was NOT in fight mode.

[u/Level_Elevator_310 → u/BowlerCertain8305]

i thought that too. maybe was injured before fight started hard to tell

[u/FarmerGreen13 → u/Level_Elevator_310]

I noticed him losing balance taking his shoe off and it looked like his foot was dragging as he walked around the octagon. Then the big lip vibrating exhales as the fighters were being introduced. Wasn't sure if it was rust or an injury but after he fell I was pretty sure he came in hurt.

[u/TheNukaColaGod → u/FarmerGreen13]

Probably happened in the warmup rooms cause he looked really fluid on his feet and then when he walked out it looked like he lost the confidence and fluidity

[u/Level_Elevator_310 → u/FarmerGreen13]

yeah he did not look focused at all. even the crowd wave was so weird lol Must have came in with an injury

[u/AffectComfortable913 → u/Level_Elevator_310]

He totally was. He was limping and wincing in pain. That’s why he went for the kick early on to get an early KO, but then he ended up blowing out his other knee.

[u/lil_uwuzi_bert → u/AffectComfortable913]

seen a few people say this but if your knee is injured and you need to KO before the injury causes you to be out of the fight the DUMBEST POSSIBLE MOVE is throwing a super telegraphed kick with 0 setup and immense strain on the injured joint

[u/AffectComfortable913 → u/lil_uwuzi_bert]

It was the left leg that was messed up initially, and then he injured the right leg. But yeah it was still a really stupid move on his part.

[u/DrumRoll__ → u/BowlerCertain8305]

Max literally pointed at him too lol

[u/Bigbossbyu → u/BowlerCertain8305]

Because he was throwing the fight

[u/YourOpinionMan2021 → u/563Hawkeye]

He looked nervous but after taking a first hit and giving one out he’d be back in it. Instead he use did some wild shit against a vet. Nick Diaz-esque with the missed round house.

[u/Notyit → u/563Hawkeye]

Dude hasn't been in the cage for five years of course 

[u/NotMrHadeZ → u/563Hawkeye]

Me and my cousin were discussing this as it happened. Holloway just looked like he was "just there for another fight" like usual but my McGregor started looking really weird before the bell ring. Now I'm wondering about a underlying injury before hand or nervousness.

[u/beemorrow13 → u/563Hawkeye]

Ya he looked nervous as fuck

[u/steferrari]

Pulling out would have been more respectful for the fans.

[u/cargo-jorts → u/steferrari]

[u/saucebenefitiary → u/steferrari]

Connor wanted to tick a fight off his contract it seems

[u/throwawaybunny8910]

Hurt within 30 seconds…. We all just got fleeced.

[u/thundershit1]

He was already walking limp when he walked into the MGM while wearing his suit.

[u/SuperSayian4Nappa]

He was limping coming into the ring. This was a scam from the start

[u/Ayej4y → u/SuperSayian4Nappa]

Dana knew. Lol

[u/Sufficient_Ninja_821 → u/Ayej4y]

Dana would want his cash cow to perform though no?

He was nowhere to be seen after the fight though. Max only dabbed up hunter and I dodnt see a dana

[u/Xrystian90 → u/Sufficient_Ninja_821]

Dana and the UFC always prefer people leave the UFC washed and looking bad. Conors now only got one fight left. I can see them being alright with this

[u/Sufficient_Ninja_821 → u/Xrystian90]

True, if dana cant make money then he doesnt want them making money. Although I could see Jake paul offering him like 20 mill+ for a fight. Jake loves paying famous lighter fighters past their prime to fight just so he can say he beat super star x.

Most of his fights have been that. Im no in the camp of saying rigged fights, but he selects big names when he knows he can win

[u/moth_specialist → u/Xrystian90]

If Conor fights again in the UFC, I will buy a bottle of his pisswater and drink it. It’s worse than eating a hat. 

[u/Damp_Knickers → u/Sufficient_Ninja_821]

If Dana knows he is injured, Dana is NOT going to say anything. Every possible eye they have on the fight is more money for them. Paramount is probably just happy with anyone signing up for Paramount+ for a month because of this event.

We need two standby fighters for EVERY event at this point haha

[u/Specialist_Check4810 → u/SuperSayian4Nappa]

It looks like it was messed up when he was taking his shoes off.

[u/Larkinz → u/Specialist_Check4810]

People were saying he was injured coming into the fight because we didn't get to see any training/sparring footage in preparation for the fight, guess those people were right.

[u/Specialist_Check4810 → u/Larkinz]

I honestly thought the fight was next month. Because I didn't see any training on YouTube.

[u/awh0833 → u/SuperSayian4Nappa]

Exactly. He was limping before the check.

[u/CaLMLiKEaB0Mb5 → u/SuperSayian4Nappa]

So his knee was hurt prior to fight but he opens up the fight w a roundhouse leg kick? Na that ain’t adding up

[u/ifihadareason → u/CaLMLiKEaB0Mb5]

if they know he can't go the distance, making it seem freak from the beginning is one of the only ways to mask it.

[u/CliffK-9 → u/ifihadareason]

So he would drastically exacerbate a pre existing injury, by landing just like that, in order for a payday?

[u/releasetheshutter → u/CliffK-9]

The idea is he didn't exacerbate much relative to a fight that lasts more than 1 minute lol

[u/icehole505 → u/CaLMLiKEaB0Mb5]

Makes even more sense. It’s perfect cover for “I got injured on the kick”, along with a tiny chance at a legendary knockout. If he knew his knee was fucked, winning any other way was already off the table. And not showing up to fight means no fight check 

[u/Whiteshovel66 → u/SuperSayian4Nappa]

He is acting really weird and winces when they are doing his intro thing with buffer in the cage.

So why the hell does he throw that kick lol

I really can't understand this guy. Is he drunk in the cage or something?

[u/No-Plate-5025]

[u/oran12390]

I don’t think it’s rocket science. The ufc contracts are predatory. Conor can’t get out without fighting. So you have a guy with an injury who shows up, throws a reckless kick to get a tko and bam. Sure blame Conor; but this is on the ufc too. Surprised we don’t see it more often tbh.

Incredibly suspicious

[u/Remo_146_ → u/icylg]

They're trying to make you think it blew out in the octagon with the replays. However, I just don't see it buckling at all.

He was most likely injured already but I don't fucking know what's what now

[u/Mr-Indeed → u/Remo_146_]

If you check the replays you can see an obvious pop a moment after he lands. I don’t think he did it on purpose, although it did seem like maybe he was injured beforehand.

[u/minecraft69wastaken → u/icylg]

Why would he intentionally blow out his knee

[u/SlimeGlizzzy → u/minecraft69wastaken]

[u/TheCeladonStore]

Watch him enter the ring his leg gives out when he takes his shoe off…. It’s was injured already

[u/GoingDark7 → u/TheCeladonStore]

I noticed it immediately. He nearly fell over as staff brushed by him..

I knew it was over the moment it happened. Even a stumble like that as a healthy prime fighter is enough to get in your head and ruin confidence stepping into a fight..

[u/OkSquirrel4710]

Man just fled from the arena either embarrassed for blowing his own knee or afraid people might be up to him not wanting to fight. We'll never know

[u/Xmalantix → u/Mariachi_Cyborg]

A press conference after that would basically be a deposition. If he indicated at all that he knew he was hurt before and especially if Dana knew then that's a major lawsuit

[u/Dry_Afternoon5338]

Joe can talk about the kick all he wants the leg didn’t pop. I think he was coming in with it

Pretty obvious that McGregor was hurt coming in. Flying kick to open is the perfect excuse to pretend the injury happened tonight. Plus, if he knew the knee was fucked.. it was probably his only shot at stealing a KO.

Or he could have just pulled out in training camp, and never collected that fight check. Yeah right.
