Al is local, he's mad all the time, he will fight. I'd rather see Al in there than Pettis or Felder. Al will at least try to make it exciting.

 

Wish they had asked Al to make championship weight. Just as a fallback.

 

After all of this shit Conor's going to get to keep his belt, isn't he?

 

Al can’t fight him because the two hours has passed apparently.

So looks like no Khabib. At least in a title fight.

 

Stunning how this went from an absolutely must watch show to what the fuck even is this in about 24 hours

 

Yup. Super glad I invited a bunch of people over my apartment to watch this. :/

Rose v JJ is still a good fight. But what the hell is on the rest of the card at this point?

 

Dana is going to SHRED the NYSAC next time he gets a mic lmao

 

I GOT TICKETS. IMAGINE HOW I FEEL LOL

 

That sucks.

Sorry. Hope the main event is at least a classic for you.

 

I wish I could travel back in time just one week ago and tell you guys that as of this Saturday, Tony would lose his interim belt to a cable on the ground, a total of four fights would fall off this card in the final 24 hours, and Conor would still remain the champion while sitting in jail for assault.

 

Pettis told he can’t fight by New York. Al is the last hope

 

Al gets the fight.

If Khabib wins, he gets the belt. 5 round main event.

 

And I thought this was the time a Tony-Khabib card would go to plan...

 

Five attempted opponents in a week for Khabib but I'm glad to see Al get this one. He's a solid fighter, he'll make this one fun.

For a second there, I thought they were going to escort McGregor in the room and put him on the scale with handcuffs on.

 

Al will make it a fight.

Maybe he can channel some of his coach Matt Serra for this one.

 

Don't hate this fight, might even still buy it now. All that shit Al stirred with UFC and he's saving the day, what a world. Will be an absolute catastrophe when he beats Khabib hahahaha.

 

Pettis and Felder are off the card as well.

They’re teammates and won’t fight.

 

Still some things that irk me about the commission but whatever. Wouldn't sanction Felder fighting Khabib, but they let his opponent have the fight? What?! And then not only do they take Max out of the fight, they won't let Al weigh-in without his boxers to see if he can make championship weight. So screwy.

I love that Khabib stayed on the card, but I hate that even if he wins "the belt" this weekend, it still won't even feel decisive. You still have Tony and Conor hanging out there. There are basically three champs.

 

So who is the champ if Khabib loses?

 

That is a very good question lol

 

Dana just said if Al wins he will be the champ.

 

This show is so insane you might as well make the main event a ladder match

 

Conor is gonna interfere in the fifth round and it’s gonna be a triple threat
