Joe Rogan - Conor McGregor Bends The Rules

And then you've got, but you know, Poirier of course was knocked out by Michael Johnson. And then you've got you coming off of the loss to Tony, storm the gates with this fight. And then you've got Eddie Alvarez who looked great against Justin Gagee. It's very hot. And then Connor is going to jail. Who knows what's happening. I think that's the X-Factor is what's happening with Connor. I mean, Dustin is out there. But I just don't see no – I'm speaking as if from a fan. You know, I just don't see no upsides to that. You know what I mean? To you fighting him? No, no, to him and Khabib. I mean, they can make it happen. And Khabib will go out there and he'll smoke them. I mean, that should be real here. But I just don't see many fans getting behind that just from what does Dustin bring to the table that Khabib ain't already seen. Well, this is the big fight right now. I mean, just being completely honest. The big fight right now is Khabib and Connor in Russia. That's the big fight. Or even Madison Square Garden. I mean, they can make that happen. I don't think New York is ever letting that motherfucker fight there again. I just don't think they're going to do that. They don't play games, man. That athletic commission is a different commission. And they're new to MMA. And that was embarrassing for them. I mean, him throwing the fucking dolly and the fact that they let them get in there with all his boys and the whole thing was just so thuggish. And didn't the thing in Bellator happen in – was that in New York or New Jersey? What thing happened in Bellator? Where he went over and slapped Goddard and all that. Was that Bellator? He called people bitches and hoes. Where was that? I want to say that was in Ireland or England. Was it in Ireland? I think it was in England. I want to say it was in London. Wasn't that the Bellator London card? I don't know. I don't know. But that Goddard thing was crazy. I felt like that happened on the East Coast too. But I mean, if – But that was one. Either way. And this is two. It's like he just keeps fucking up with this kind of stuff. And, you know, no one's saying get rid of him. He's worth so much money. It's really fascinating. What I was saying is imagine if Ray Borg and him switched sides. If Ray Borg showed up with all his boys and was screaming and yelling and threw a dolly at the window. It's done deal. It's done deal forever. Oh, it's done deal. Oh, yeah. It's done deal forever. Paul Daly. Paul Daly must be at home going, motherfucker. Hey, look. It's certain things – Fuck J. N. White. It's certain things that we just can't do. You know, Paul. I'm sorry. Well, until you get to that stratosphere that Conor McGregor – It's like there's so much money to be made. That's the problem. It's like the rules get bent. Paul Paul Daly did his throw a punch at Josh Kostchak after. It didn't even connect. That could have been sorted out. Yeah. And you even had guys like Will Brooks kind of got the hammer put down on him. After he got knocked out and then pushed the ref. I think – was that Will Brooks? Was that Will? I'm sorry. I don't know. I don't know. You're looking at me funny. I'm thinking you're right. It was somebody, you know, he got knocked out and then pushed the ref right after. And it's like they put a lot on – oh, no, it wasn't Will Brooks. I'm sorry. It was – God, 170 pounder. Hmm. I know who you're talking about. Damn. God damn it. Who was that? God, this is going to kill me. Sorry. Yeah. But either way, you know, and they held him against him. And he was concussed, you know? You barely know where you at at the time. Jason High. Jason High, yeah. That's what it was, yeah. See, he's a very good fighter. And what people don't understand is that once you get knocked out and then you come back, you really don't know what happened. You're really out of it. Yeah. Who knocked him out? It was Dosanjos, right? It was Dosanjos. Yeah, yeah. It was Dosanjos. It was Dosanjos. Walter Waite debuted, right? No. No, it was at 55 still. Yeah, 55 still, yeah. But again, he was a great fighter. I mean, it's just certain things that we just can't do, Joe. Oh, we meaning people of color. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, look, I don't want to say it that way. Do you think Floyd Mayweather could do it, though? No, Floyd can do it. I just think it's people with that – There's a level to the game where you're so valuable that you – Look, if Conor McGregor does a pay-per-view fight, especially if they do – You heard all that crazy nonsense they were going to do with McGregor, like, no shoes, you can clinch, but no kicks, no takedowns, no – If they ever did that, they're just printing money. Yeah, I mean, 100%. It's so hard for them to not take that money. But, I mean, and I don't hold that against them, and I always said that about the UFC. Do you see it about the green? And I understand that, and that's kind of where I'm coming from, but, you know, it's just – Consistency. Yeah, well, I think you just have to realize, as a black man in America, really, like, there's two ways to approach the situation. You either be the victim or you can just say it is what it is, that's some circumstances. You know, black people just don't support other black people the way the Irish support the Irish, the Russians support – I mean, I'm just being real with you. But the reality is white people in America don't support white Americans the way the Irish support Conor. Nobody does that.
