UFC VP of athletic development:

@reedharrisufc
At hospital with one of my coworkers. Possible broken hand due to attack by Conor and his gang of thugs. I got cut and showered with glass. We thought we were gonna die.

Do you still watch the NFL? The sport in which at least two players killed someone while driving under the influence yet were able to play in the league again?

Or the NBA in which two brawls broke out on the court during or shortly after the game with those players eventually being able to play again?

I agree that this is a black mark and disgusting of the sport, but let's not act like we haven't seen worse.

We should probably be concentrating on what's important anyways. (In chronological order)

1. Fixing Conor's hair in ufc 3 (I'm shocked there isn't a thread already)

2. Alex Caceres and if he gets paid.

3. The fights on Saturday

I'm gonna need Bruce Leeroy to get his **** together and reach his potential that I thought he had on TUF.

Largely Apples and Oranges. If nobody was injured the UFC would be begrdgingly leaning into this and hyping it up WWE-style, cutting highlight packages from the cell phone footage.

Not really the rabbit hole for this thread though I suppose.
