Just thinking that if you stuck your dick into her she could twist it into a knot and expel it.

In other news, Uriah Faber accused T.J. Dillashaw of taking steroids
I guess its good for him that McGregor tweeted about his retirement which takes up all that bad SEO PR for the moment.
Or, he saw a dude his teammate was fighting die after a cage fight. That might be enough to get a man to consider hanging it up. Or to renegotiate his contract a few months before UFC 200.Quote:

BTW, here are some last few follows for Conor on twitter...food for thought:
At best he's looking for more money, at worst Dana put him up to it.Quote:

Nate retiring too?
lol Roy
and now Nate..
Ahh I see the surgery to get Dana's head out of his ass was successful. I was worried for a minute. They apparently had to do major reconstruction of his asshole however due to his oversized melon. Sadly this will do nothing to resolve his retention issue and Dana will continue to be full of shit for the foreseeable future.Quote:

Dana said they meet wit Nate tomorrow to find him a new opponent.
edit: from espn
ESPN has attempted to contact McGregor and members of his camp, but none were available for comment as of Tuesday afternoon.
McGregor, 27, had been scheduled to fight Nate Diaz at UFC 200 on July 9, in a rematch of their bout from earlier this year, when Diaz upset McGregor at UFC 196.
White, though, told SportsCenter later Tuesday that he has pulled McGregor from the card after the star fighter opted not to attend the pre-fight promotional appearances in Las Vegas.
"Conor didn't want to come to Las Vegas and be part of any promotional training," White said. "He's in Iceland training.
"He felt leaving right now would hurt his training. But every other fighter on the card is coming.
"It doesn't make you exempt. We spend a lot of money on this stuff."
White wouldn't read into McGregor's retirement tweet.
"Is Conor McGregor retiring? Only he can answer that question," White said. "I don't know. But he will not be a part of UFC 200."
McGregor's tweet was posted one week after Joao Carvalho died from injuries suffered during a fight earlier this month, which McGregor attended.
McGregor, who was ringside at Carvalho's fight in Dublin, Ireland, posted a message last week to his Facebook account, writing, "To see a young man doing what he loves, competing for a chance at a better life, and then to have it taken away is truly heartbreaking."
McGregor pulling out like all his opponents do to him, which he rides them forever on it. He won't be able to use that gimmick anymore. Even though he technically didn't if he's not promoting a fight it's a pull out imo.
I have seen the speculation on twitter that he failed a drug test and this is all a cover up.
Probably 99.9% not the case oh but what a fun conspiracy theory that is. It's like when Michael Jordan retired from basketball to play baseball and the rumor was he did it b/c the NBA commissioner Stern had found out he had gambled on sports during the year and de facto "suspended" him without tarnishing his reputation thanks to how much fucking money Jordan made the NBA.
In regards to the retirement shit if anyone believes a guy who has expensive habits like purchasing a bunch of luxury cars is really going to retire and after a loss then they are retarded.
He's probably burned out or reality has set in that he don't want to lose to Diaz again so fighting him this soon afterwards isn't a great idea.

and he's for sure not burned out because he is training in Iceland at the moment, as he has been.Quote:

Occam's razor: Conor said More money, Lorenzo said Not this time. There's been more than enough foreshadowing over the last 2 years that something like this had to happen eventually.
Honestly regarding Conor's retirement, I dont think anyone in this thread is 100% wrong, but at the end of the day I think Dana told him to get in line or fuck off, and he opted to fuck off.
We've seen Dana drop the hammer over this shit before, with Nick Diaz iirc, so its not without precedent for him to give Conor an ultimatum because Dana is super cereal about those promotional training sessions, and Conor being Conor, he just decided there was no real downside to saying pass.

yes.
yes i do.
dana's a fucking idiot when it comes to his ego vs reality, and lets be real, so is conor.
this is exactly how i expect any confrontation between them to play out honestly.
"biggest fight card ever" is a marketing strategy. Whats the worst case scenario, now he has to fight on the Madison Square Garden supercard later in the year?Quote:

OF course, the entire reason people don't deal with Dana is because of situations like this, so now that I think about it, it really does sound Dana-ish, I guess.
1000% bullshit there is no fucking chance I am believing this, I don't care if Dana goes on Sportscenter or shouts it from the fucking moon.
