I think a lot of what you see is frustration. I think he knows he ain\u2019t been the champ for a while. He <\/em>don\u2019t<em> know what else to do. He\u2019s acting like a child. It\u2019s retarded. I ain\u2019t going to give that cokehead too much press.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>That\u2019s just the fight game. What Khabib did I didn\u2019t feel was disrespectful. I <\/em>didn\u2019t see nothing<em> out of line. And if it was out of line that\u2019s not the way to go about it. I think Conor, he wants to be this gangster, he wants to be this thug, but he ain\u2019t really from there. If it\u2019s me, I got in this game to get away from that, to get away from having to do shit like it. It seems like he is trying to get there and then he\u2019s going back to where I came from it. It\u2019s <\/em>backwards<em> to me. It <\/em>don\u2019t<em> really make sense.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>You can tell the man don\u2019t know what he\u2019s doing, because when you have that type of money, you ain\u2019t supposed to throw shit. You supposed to be out somewhere holding up a newspaper in front of cameras: \u2018I ain\u2019t nowhere near the scene. But somebody will get touched.\u2019 That whole situation is laughable. It\u2019s laughable to someone like me, and I hate giving it press really.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A man that Lee has some history with, Michael Chiesa wound up a victim of the whole situation as he was there for a fight of his own on the upcoming Saturday. That was until McGregor and his crew rolled into the Barclay Center and he threw a dolly cart into the window of the bus that the fighters were inside of. Thus resulting in lacerations to Chiesa&#8217;s face from the glass that forced him out of his bout.<\/p>\n<p>Despite their differences, Lee felt for his former opponent, Chiesa.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cI feel bad for the dude. I really do. I wish it had been me on that bus. We would have caused a riot in that *expletive*. There ain\u2019t no way they would have held me on that bus. I feel bad for a guy like Mike. Mike <\/em>don\u2019t<em> want to hurt a fly. He should stop showing up for media stuff. He just <\/em>keep<em> getting hit in the head.
