http://www.mmafighting.com/2016/4/20/11465682/morning-report-chael-sonnen-thinks-conor-mcgregor-made-a-big-mistake "Conor has a contract, he made a deal, somewhere he didn't sign it. Let the promotion go out, let the money get spent and then realized ‘I've got the upper hand. Now I can come back and renegotiate. Who's going to tell me no when the advertising is already done?' That's what he did. Guaranteed. With no inside knowledge, guaranteed that's what happened." On April 21 2016 02:07 JimmiC wrote: Shockingly it was money.

People come to watch you not the ufc let me promote your fights and you will make 50 million or more! No one cares about the undercard anyways we can just throw a bunch of your buddies on it. Conner see's $$ and says Dana pay up or I'm outtie don't you know how much these suits cost? OR! Conor got busted for steroids and this is UFCs and McGregors secret plan for him to leave 'quietly'! | ||

When McG signed on for the UFC 200 fight did he also agree to the promo tour and all it entails? the devil is in the details. it doesn't look like McG is asking for more money. Before Conor released his facebook statement Dana White stated "Conor Mcgregor's window is pretty much closed" http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2016/4/21/11476998/ufc-video-dana-white-says-conor-mcgregor-window-is-pretty-much-closed This is an interesting stand-off. | ||
