Said it before and I'll say it again, I'm 100% convinced that Horatio Sanz took the fall for shit that he and Jimmy Fallon were both doing. But Jimmy was NBC's golden boy, so they covered it up.
Hes starting the media circuit to wash his image for his big return to the ufc.
I would like to understand why, when ask these questions, which demand a sober, reflective response after some internal dialogue, we stop there, and seem to gloss over what I consider important follow ups:
I can't think of a single thing that would make my wish I had my time back more than spending 30 seconds watching this fucking drivel. It's pig swill distilled into electromagnetic waves meant for things with a lot less folds in the cerebellum.
I'm not one to defend the UFC, I think Dana White is a piece of shit. But as someone who used to be into it, this just seems like a complete misunderstanding of MMA.
Also, women do it too fyi. So not sure why you think this only reflects on men.
Boxing has existed for literally thousands of years. Wrestling and Pankration even longer I believe. The latter was an event in the first Olympics, and it's very similar to modern MMA.
This particular event was a travesty, but not because of mixed martial arts. You're angry at the wrong people.
Appealing to history isn't as strong as you might think, when we are talking about whether or not society should promote a social activity.
Yeah like the Greeks did have some super cool ideas (democracy good, though flawed a bit, and that's some sweet beards y'all). But also a lot of fucking terrible ones. I'm not going to put wrestling on the same pillar as "we all get to decide who's in charge".
One is a more valuable contribution that is literally the opposite of "might makes right" and the other is.....more or less a metaphor for it. I have to say that equivocation got a good belly laugh, along with the assertion that I didn't "understand MMA" (as though bread and circus was a deep subject).
men should be treated with any degree of seriousness?
Regardless of gender, if you're sexist you should never feel like you're taken seriously.
On that note, LOL.
It’s a little funny you’re commenting this on a post where McGregor is clearly being taken seriously.
Ah yes, one man bad means all men bad. Good argument from OP and that other mouth breather.
You’re the only one resorting to name calling though.
No one said McGregor represents all men. You are the only one to conflate this man with all men.
He was also in that rubbish Roadhouse remake, made by Amazon.
The billionaire class is locked in on rape.
It's going to be all over the news soon if they can't distract with war and economic ruin.
I might take flak for this, but I didn't hate that movie lol.
Yeah, it's a "bad movie," for sure, but I was entertained.
MacGregor is easily the worst part about it.
Also IO Interactive gave this rapist a bag of money to have him in their Hitman game. Don’t buy that new 007 game or any of IOI’s work.
Sure but that cunt still keeps the money, money that basically came out of the players pockets.
He was very obvs an asshole before, granted.
But what do you want them to do? Sue him for damages after they kicked him? Maybe they should reconsider their contracts in the future and add clauses for "if it later becomes known you are the scum of the earth, this contracts is voided and you owe us the money + damages", but would this stand up? Without looking further into it, they did all they could do. But maybe I'm too lenient.
Dude was already a known abuser before IOI gave him a bag of money not just an asshole, basically punching people that didn’t kiss his feet. He even punched an old man who refused a drink McGregor offered. I would have liked that they never gave him any money. Hence why I stopped buying their games, if they had a lapse of judgement before they might have it again in the future.
Aleight, I looked it up and the first case was brought way before the release of the DLC. Also, he appeared with the turd in chief, which I forgot about. Not buying hitman games in the future either, although they made it to my wishlist some weeks ago. Opinion changed, thanks!
noone would accept such a contract, its way to risky
I mean, its Hitman, what if he was a "mission objective."
It’s still normalizing rape.
In January 2021, after prosecutors declined to prosecute McGregor for the 2018 alleged sexual assault, a civil claim for damages was launched in the High Court.
On 22 November 2024, the jury returned their verdict and found that McGregor had raped Hand. Accordingly, McGregor was ordered to pay Hand nearly €250,000 in damages.
What the fuck Ireland? You're all okay with this dumbass justice system?
Once again the rich use the legal system to purchase some "rape time" for a paltry €250,00.00.
if you elect a rapist president, you're gonna have have rapist celebrities....
He's always been this way.
Which rape is this? He's raped many women.
This is the woman who sued him in civil court and won, Nikita Hand. Not before McGregor's goons broke in and stabbed her boyfriend several times though.
What they broke in stabbed her boyfriend and raped her. Never go any jail time. WTF.
Yep. They were trying to intimidate her into not testifying.
No surprise. Fallon is barely even human. Just a hollow machine for propagating the system's needs.

fallon is fucking scum... how this untalented clown has a career is beyond me. his whole schtick was him laughing like a fucking moron while breaking character and ruining skits
Jimmy Fallon would happily keep doing his latenight comedy show where he socializes with members of the ruling class even if we had gas chambers and mass executions.
What has become of the moral integrity of our...late night hosts?
