Ultimate Fighting Championship is just days away from kicking off “UFC 209” and it appears as if a certain grappler believes they missed the boat with a sell-out.
Fans will be packed in the T-Mobile Arena for Tyron Woodley’s second championship defense against Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson, which follows up an interim championship bout between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson. The event was having some issues moving tickets last week, and Conor McGregor’s Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu coach believes he would have turned the event into a sell out if he was placed on it:
I know for a fact If I was on the UFC card saturday it would of been sold out, they be fucking up…. ☝??@danawhite

UFC fans and fighters alike agreed that the UFC truly missed a major opportunity when they failed to book Nick and Nate Diaz for this weekend’s “UFC 209” event, as well.
