nice to see ...hear the natural side. thankyou.
anyone else forget to like before seeing this?
Big trucks = lil nuts
his "behind closed door fights" with who? obviously none of them did calf kicks.
Peaceful protest? They raided the capitol, beat a police officer to DEATH with a fire extinguisher and beat DOZENS more officers, defecated inside the capitol building, erected a hangman’s pole and nose and was chanting for the murder of Mike Pence and Pelosi. Whitewashing that event as a peaceful protest is absolute bullshit.
I love how all these blm protesters can burn down cities destroy peoples businesses that they have worked there whole lives for its okay but if someone is for trump or they do the stuff they its wrong and illegal
He had the belt when he fought mayweather and now that khabib is retired he is crying over him not fighting? what a fucking hypocrite
I'm 21 minutes into this podcast, very interesting 👍🏽
Conor is gonna get whooped from here on out, only if he faces cowboy can he win again lol.
Funny people think we know each other cause you always seem to banter with me on Twitter
3-3 in the last 6 fights. Connor should really consider retiring.
"Motivated Connor", motivately got his arse kicked. Well worth 80 bucks just to see Connor catch a beat down.
Josh Thompson is loyal asf he is being super professional but his facial expression aren't lying 😂 much respect
I'm only here to see how Josh Thompson and conor interaction goes
Whos here after Conor got fcuked up? LMAO.... Khabib beat him AND Conor. Conor lost to Dustin now at 257. And he says Khabib is running away from him 😆 🤣 😂
Best fighting podcast out there! Keep up the great work.
Your guys’ take on Pat being fired is bullshit. Name one BLM rioter who lost their job for burning down a Wendy’s. You’re essentially ceding ground to our country becoming a completely dystopian hellhole where no one can express any opinions to the right of full communism without being harassed and fired. Fuck the “rights” of private companies. There’s no functional difference between the state enforcing speech codes and private businesses enforcing speech codes. In the end, you end up with a culture where you’re afraid to openly criticize the state of the society you live in. The intent of the first amendment was to make sure that never happened. The fact the founding fathers didn’t anticipate Twitter doesn’t really change what the first amendment was intended to do. No one should ever be fired for political speech. Period.
Josh, come on man... You can't call that a peaceful protest. Quit making the rioters the victims. It's very simple. All employers now have a "terminate at anytime" clause in their employment contracts. You can quit anytime and they can fire you at anytime without reason. If you decide to protest, do it peacefully. If you are breaking the law, which storming capitol hill was, it will get you fired. Companies and businesses do not want the bad publicity.
Hes a fuckin badass!!!
Who's the glaswegian?
☝✌👌💥
The mac is back
What was the website/guy they talked about for betting? $50 a month and he gives you picks for fights.
Love ur podcast , real mma talk 💖💖
BLM attacks innocent people for their colour and burns down their property yet nobody is fired. Stop beating around the bush and man up. This is obviously because the media and gov are anti-european
Elon musk makes a device that goes to your brain, maybe it will help with cte someday.
Khabib been ducking tony for 5 years
Michel chandler should be at 145 he too small for 155
S#it, Pitbull got 2 belts and hes smaller than mike.
Thats alot of muscles to get rid of.
MMA News be like: Nate Diaz may be planning to come back at 155 lb. Jan 13, 2021 USADA 'essentially' eliminating marijuana use as UFC violation. John Kavanagh: "I want everyone to campaign for McGregor vs Diaz 3 at 155 lb on Paddy's Day card in New York for the title." Khabib Nurmagomedov: "Uh let's see... Maybe I retire, I promise I won't hold up division."
Had to dip out after hearing the nuggets. Good show fellas
I want Diaz 3
"I see stiffness in the 20 pound division, it's like they're stuck in the womb almost" - Conor McGregor Jr
ITS LIKE HE IS AS GREAT OUTSIDE OF THE RING AS IN EVERYTHING ELSE WHEN HE IS REALLY DEDICATED AND NOW MATURE. ---EVERYTHING SEAMS CALCULATED BUT ALSO SINCERE -- MMA fight that could help him prepare for a mega boxing fight vs Pacman as both r left handed -- Forcing the UFC to make this fight by offering 500k to Dustin and for it to be a PPV charity exhibition.. -- Direct connection to Dustins charity and his Proper 12 Whiskey and charity from profits to first responders --- In connection with Bellator fighters and big names --- has his hands in MMA gyms and again helping out. AND ALL OF THAT EXTRA HELP AND EFFORT TO HELP OTHERS MAY BE THE MAIN REASON WHY HE IS, OR WILL BE, A MULTI BILLIONAIRE... Truly impressed from all aspects and he seams to be in amazing fighting shape.
I think Josh was right about Tony and his fight against Olivera kinda proved he’s lost some of his fight game. I don’t think Tony will ever get near the real belt again.
Josh - The show is The First 48.
Pat for real! Sack his ass! UFC helped get the madman TRUMP! There are so much racist people in this world. Anyone whom wupport the republicans during Trumps time is a racist and has low or no morals.
You’re a bum Colin! Poirier by KO in round 1
So... why isn't anyone being fired for attending a BLM riot.. I mean "Protest" (cough)
We all know why.
Conor starts at 1:04:55.
Love it
Conor is finished after kabbib smashed him like a rat 🐀 he will lose against Dustin then he will retire in a garbage can
I agree it's a slippery slope, I'm a fairly liberal Kiwi muso but I will always fight for free speech, I see the far left narrative shutting down, cancelling and censoring people a lot lately and there's a danger in censoring/ silencing people and art just because someone finds it offensive and you're right, it's a slippery slope and not good for humanities growth.

These assholes went a hour before bringing the king on?.. show more respect
U guys are badass best mma ref ever and josh Thompson badass class act
The company has the right to do what ever they want... Like stay open amongst the unconstitutional lockdowns
Lost a viewer with you supporting their cancel culture bullshit.. I respect Josh's opinion on it, john is shilling
Interview gold.
nothing like a good ol whoop ass to humble an asshole. good job habib ❤️🙏
They Will Come for Everyone Soon Enought, Please do not be Surprised...I wont be
Did Khabib really humbled Conor?
John, AKA "Never Trumper". Honestly, the people watching and promoting this sport are not Bernie or Dirty Joe biden supporters. They had some douche intern say " oh my God bla bla fuckin bla and they got scared.
Ya know Josh Thompson is Khabibs mate, every time McGregor speaks you can see him holding back what he really wants to say. Well done to you Josh very professional
Wow amazing to see the fact connor came in gave this episode 4x-5x more views than any other episode :o Happy for You guys getting the pr boost
Oh so now Connor is calling out tony after 2 beatings.. not that i thought Tony would win anyway but come on... yet gaethje hasn't left is mouth so lets talk about that
Hey guy no one gives shit about your WiFi let’s move on
I like Josh because he is a straight up guy. He don’t kiss ass like Brendan Schaub... Props to Josh .
Great piont about stirring the pot💯Pat should not be fired for that! That's not right he did nothing! The people that stormed the place were already informed where to go and helped by capitol police! That was a plan he was unaware of I'm sure! NOT FAIR...FREE PAT💯Great show Josh and the GODFATHER of MMA👏👍👍
He should enter to this: "A Conor McGregor Saga by AlienInside" (watch?v=x5VLTK05BZo)
The fuck does RVCA stand for? I never looked it up....hold on.....Ill google it...RVCA | THE BALANCE OF OPPOSITES The RVCA Name (Pronounced: REW-KA) was developed first and foremost out of the "V" and "A" = which symbolizes The Balance of Opposites and how they coexist: Nature x Industrialization, Woman x Man, Past x Present... Future.
I know it might sound crazy to some but the Josh Thompson in his prime forsure maybe even now would knock Connor out. No doubt in my mind. He knocked out Nate when nate was in his prime something Connor nor masvidal could do.Who knows. Dustin could pull an upset on the 23rd. I know he is planning on it. I think people are sleep about the dog Dustin has in him. Dana is going to cry if Dustin stops this hype train they are trying to build . He probably did the best vs khabib. He had him in a deep choke. Khabib worked his way out but he was in trouble for a sec. No one else had him in trouble ever. Gsp will beat khabib if he fights him and I still feel Ferguson in his prime would have done it. If khabib would of fought Tony in 2015 khabib would of never became what he did because he would have a lose on his record. Now if they fought I don’t know time has caught up with Tony I think. It’s so sad. Fuck you Father Time you cruel bitch.
Yes I called it before the fight when firas and all the experts said Connor. Now let’s see if Jan kicks the gyno out of Izzy like I feel he is going to do.
Great interview Congrats Conor on baby and your the greatest
Big john just became a fan boii ye 😎
Charlie Hunnam as mcgregor would be so sick! I am sure that’s who he was referring to
Seriously big John? You have been around since day one of the UFC and you're going to sit there and give the credit of wearing suits to Conor? In all your years in the business, you never heard of GSP?
What is he talking about character?...His character is in the gutter...He just defends his disgusting behavior and failures and say it is what it is and I am who I am.. Habib has the most honourable and unblemished character....only situation and circumstances stood in his way to prevent him from showing up and that is why Dana treats him with dignity and honour and respect
I wanna see the Diaz rematch.
Great podcast...I'm a big fan of you guys. All the way from South Africa..YUP...that's right...we have electricity and 5G internet..ha ha. Really cool Conor interview...I do wish Josh would lace up his gloves and give us fans another fight though, but to quote myself in the job i currently have as a structural engineer for the last 25 years "if there was anything else I was qualified to do for the same amount of money...i would be doing it" So...if you making money and don't need to get punched in the head...GO FOR IT!!!
The guy conner was thinking about to play him in a move!! -the actor from Sons of Anarchy
When Conor speaks of the actor that could play him in a movie and says “there is this game of thrones type actor” I think he’s referring to Travis Fimmel from Vikings. I’ve actually always thought Travis would play a great Conor.
that’s cool that he gave them this interview didn’t expect that
