      He's mad cuz they tried humiliating him with cherry picking video clips. Any red blooded man would do the same thing.

          It's wayyyyy beyond what actually happened Paulie has crossed over to obsessed crazy stalking ex girlfriend status. Showtime needs to do their version of getting a restraining order on paulie.

            Paulie is there to break down the action and call what he's seeing in the ring; I don't see how his feelings for Conor will affect that

            Paulie was acting like a deranged homeless man yelling "bring yer balls!" on top of stalking Conor when he arrived.

            (Showtime doesn't obviously like Conor since he berated them multiple times so there's that as well)

              What do you guys think?
              If they use him, I'm sure they'll tell him to leave his beefs out of it, but what the hell? The commentators usually seem biased toward one fighter in nearly every fight anyway. So it probably wouldn't change anything.

                So, Paulie said In the video that his Intentions were to pull Mcgregor's manager off to the side for a private conversation. Ok Paulie we believe you.

                This character has no business being Involved In this fight at this point.

                  He's become quite a figure surrounding this fight. Believe that Conor/MMA fans know of him now. I imagine that doesn't bother the Showtime execs.

                    It doesn't matter. Nobody watching the fight is going to pay any attention to any commentator.
