Media UFC 279: Pre-Fight Press Conference *Update: Presser Cancelled, Card Still On (Update in OP)*

If Khamzat got cut there’s no fights brah

Unless they bump the Leech and we get Tony vs Nate instead.

NDA rolls deep. Who really trying to fuck with them?
There's like 30 of them. Even if each guy can fight just a little bit, you're fucked

Not all of them would fight. That's how it is always in groups, some will fight while others won't. Also not everyone are comfortable in rumbles, it's not the same thing as sport fighting. A lot of fighters look uncomfortable during rumbles. From what I've seen with Nate, he's comfortable, he moves well and understands how to fight in that setting. I've seen other pro fighters look lost in that setting. Any fighter with security/bouncer experience would be comfortable with that too, since that's probably what they deal with the most when they used to work security.

Holland's nothing but a dork always desperately seeking attention. They don't call him big mouth for nothing, and all of yal' praising this man for what, lmao

Holland doesn't seem dumb enough to throw a punch/slap first, Khamzat probably would.

On pay per view? I doubt it

Please let this happen

There are multiple photos of both Nate and Nick arriving at the event, so they showed up.

The conspiracy theorist in me wonders if this was a way for the UFC to hype up interest around what was shaping up to be a pretty lackluster card. Either way, best-case scenario for Diaz if a fight cancellation allows him to avoid a public beatdown and fulfill his UFC contract.

I don't think so. Details will come later and possibly footage. Too many ppl would be involved.

Bound to be some sherdoggers backstage. Spill the fuckin beans already

 

[Orochimaru 大蛇丸]

So Khamzat is willing to throw away the Diaz fight to fight Holland on site

he didn’t have that same energy with Costa at the performance institute

interesting

Some of y’all are so dumb lol

 

[Noraaq]

Wouldn’t trust Ariel these days, he has a clear bias for certain fighters of a certain management team

 

[OldBoy91]

Khamzat and Till are wannabe gangsters but they ain't no west coast gangsters! #WarNate

Till is from Liverpool. He's literally from the west coast.

 

[WaylonMercy5150]

Reports (not confirmed) Darren Till was injured in the altercations. Was supposedly knocked out by Chris Avila.

Why did goof cancel the press conference?

 

[TripTictonic]

I doubt that an actual fight happened. Probably just another argument, maybe some shoving.

Seems like something significant would have happened to outright cancel the press conference. Most of the media members on Twitter or saying it was total chaos. Guess we’ll see

 

[FIghtxIQ]

Lol, dude, You're taking to literal. Holland is just implying people on fake masks and claim they're something else.

I understand what he's saying lol. I just think he should've said something else, because they literally all wear make-up in front of cameras. I would've said something like everyone is wearing masks or acting for the cameras, something to that extent.

 

[SyranIncel]

I think ppv sales were really bad like historically bad and they did this to spice things up

Ruining Paddy Pimblett's catchphrase again lad

Haha prob a larp. But if true the guy can't catch a break haha.

 

[Pechan]

Why weren’t they separated to begin with?

Needed some content for embedded.
