I'm hearing it's over something Dana did or didn't do, but again it could be bullshit.

Reports saying Mcgregor was 'truly heartbroken' after Carvalho death. He was ringside.

McGregor vs Diaz II wasn't that exciting anyway.
I really wanted to see him vs Frankie, though. McGregor vs Aldo II would have been nice too.

So Dana thinks we're all dumb enough to believe he was pulled because he refused to promote the fight......?
.....ok. |

I believe it, because they have done it before. Diaz was pulled from his fight with GSP because he wouldn't promote the fight. It makes sense because they do need the press conferences and the commercials to max out huge events like this, and if he won't do it, well then he's not that valuable to the UFC. The UFC wasn't excited about having Conor rematch Diaz anyway, and if he won't come to Vegas, screw him, they won't have any trouble at all finding a new opponent for Diaz and selling that card.

So Dana pulled him over not promoting the fight and he told Dana to **** off and retired.
Makes sense |

I assume they have GSP coming back for 200 as well.

Link to Dana's explanation on Sportscenter.
Apparently at some point they had plane tickets booked from Iceland to Vegas, and Dana told Conor that if he is not on that plane, then he's off the card.

Connor is such an idiot. Does he think that he's making some sort of a point? The UFC was huge before him and it will be huge after him. I'm sure Dana wishes he could have kept making money on Connor, but shit, he'll never let any one fighter become bigger than the promotion.
