If I Did It: Conor McGregor threw what at a UFC bus?

Bloody Elbow 2.0 | Anton Tabuena

Welcome to IF I DID IT where we analyze and solve PR kerfuffles from the MMA world (insert hand gesture) not beyond.

Kid Nate of Bloody Elbow (who has a podcast about rock and roll history) and Eugene S. Robinson, from ozy.com and author of “Fight: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Ass-Kicking but Were Afraid You’d Get Your Ass Kicked for Asking” join host Alexei Auld for another episode of If I Did It. Collectively, they make up the MMA Puncholes. Join them right after this show for If the Shoes Fit where we go beyond the world of MMA

You’re the UFC. Conor McGregor took over your media day in Brooklyn and spat in your face, live and in public, if you will. Storming into your press conference, tossing chairs at a UFC bus, and injuring UFC Fighters Michael Chiesa and Ray Borg. We know you need him more than he needs you, so what’cha gonna do with the Notorious one going wild on you? – 1:03

You’re Brock Lesnar. Are you really coming back to the UFC and if so, WHY?!?! – 16:28

You’re Canelo Alvarez. How do you manage your fight future in wake of your suspension? – 25:37

REGULAR FEATURE: KID NATE’S HEEL TURN – 30:11

REGULAR FEATURE: EUGENE’S LOST BATTALION – 35:13
