    I think there should always be some type of accountability when it comes to the use of PED's in any sport. This sport is one that comes with serious danger and one wrong move or it could end someone's career or worse. PED's can have adverse effects more far reaching than strength. Brain damage, cardiac damage, and death are certainly a possibility when using doping in order to gain an edge on your opponent. So, read it this what you may but I think that has to be doping regulation in the MMA arena as they are in every other sport. Just my opinion and 2 cents.

  • @dp6921

    I take great pleasure in deleting any MMA social media pages who mention Conor for no reason. I'm SO fucking sick of hearing about this idiot, so you're sailing close to the edge, haha! Please, until he's about to fight again, ignore him.
    If you like McGregor you should want all the media to ignore him. If that had happened he probably would have fought more often because now he's rich all he craves is the limelight, and people keep giving it to him for zero effort on his part.

    I would certainly care more if he came back and won a fight and then looked to book another one. As it currently stands, I care far less than I use to. Never been one to care much for out of ring antics. But I will admit the dude was funny as hell, even intelligent. He doesn't trash talk the same anymore either. Really, his personality isn't very engaging to me these days, just comes across as though he's off his head (because he is) and a little bit of an unhinged maniac.

    I care about Conor just as much as any other minimally active fighter with a 1-3 record over the last five years.
    I care about Conor just as much as any other person who punches old men in bars or endangers his fellow co-workers while in a dumb rage.
    I cared when Conor was an ambassador of the sport. Now he's an ambassador of Conor, saying "I WANT THAT GUY NEXT" every single time someone in any combat sport has a big win, just so people will say his name, when we all know he's barely competed in his primary sport over the last 7 years.
    I really hope he retires and just goes away. He's as much a stain on the sport as anything else these days.

    I could take it or leave it. I might be the only one but I've been losing faith in the UFC lately.
    I know its a business at the end of the day but the organization has zero integrity. From atrocious judging to questionable matchups to strong-arm tactics against fighters who dissent. McGregor situation further exposes UFC corruption. It feels more like a popularity contest than a sport.

    Hardcore fans don’t really care. We all know he’s never going to be a world champion again or beat top contenders. So I’m terms of the sport, his return doesn’t do anything for the lightweight or welterweight division. It’s just for the spectacle at this point

    Conor McGregor is the Irish Tony Ferguson. Almost the same record the last few fights, talks all this big noise and has yet to back it up and still claiming to be the next champ. It's crazy Tony lost the rub but somehow Conor still got it. I guess that's just the proof of recency bias since Tony's actually been active in the cage while Conor's been active on Twitter.
