Frankie is pissed.. Never "refused" to fight Conor

Per Frankie's Facebook

The ‘C’ in UFC stands for 'Conor'....

"I’m even more pissed that Dana’s insinuating that I ‘refused’ to take this fight, which is bullsh*t. Just because they asked me doesn’t mean they were going to give it to me because guess what, in July they asked me to take the [UFC 189] fight on 15 day’s notice, which of course I accepted, and I still didn’t get it." 

 

Wow. Sucks for Frankster. Phone Post 3.0

Well did they ask him or not? Phone Post 3.0

He doesn't say he didn't turn down the fight. He did turn it down. Phone Post 3.0

Woah. In for truth. Phone Post 3.0

sounds like they asked him and he asked for more money and they told him to pound sand

Exactly. The debate is on the semantics of the wording Dana used as "refused" instead if saying Edgar had a torn groin and could not accept. Phone Post 3.0

Yes but asked him when knowing he's injured.

Asked him to fight him at 55 on 10 days notice when Dana has been on the record saying he doesn't want Frankie to fight at 55 again.

Asked him to fight when even if Frankie said yes they would of probably still gave the fight to Nate (just like 189) Phone Post 3.0

Seems like a weird response.

He claims to have not "refused" to take the fight, but for some reason his response leaves me wondering if he made too many demands, or wanted too much money. A lot of guys "accept" fights and price themselves out of things. More than one way to say no IMO.

 

His manager probably wrote this anyway. Phone Post 3.0

That's fair, and I see your points. I should have worded the title better. Vu Phone Post 3.0


It's pretty despicable the way the UFC..well...Dana...has no problem throwing otherwise very loyal fighters under the bus.
Whatever it takes to sell the current fight.

Well everybody wants to fight him.... Phone Post 3.0

I love the part where he declares he is angry about a triple hypothetical...

At this point I kind of hope he never gets the Conor fight because this is solid comedy....he is executing bizarre mental gymnastics to fuel his anger...

Keep trolling him, imo - dude is triggered
