I agree but McGregor is has to adjust too. I been seeing videos of Aldo in the gym looking in shape. This is his opportunity. This or sit on your ass for year and then what? You're a year older, rusty and McGregor might not be as marketable if he took a loss. Right now McGregor's hot. Go in!

Yes and gas out within a round

I fully believe with a full camp mendes could of won

 

[jackswstd]

Now RDA is faking an injury to avoid Conor huh

I see they wanna keep him as far away from Khabib as possible.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Best option is Cerrone. Diaz is a terrible matchup for Connor due to the reach. Pettis is on two losses. Khabib I think Connor KOs easily but he's not a name and no one wants to see him flailing around going for TD. Cerrone is the one who's closest to in shape and ready

Aldo is not risking trying to get in shape for a week to possibly lose again. He made five mil and has a restaurant he's going to fight Connor again when he's ready

Injuries in training are part of the game.................. but lets take a second to recognize and appreciate champions that stay healthy

Diaz has nothing for conor thats an easy fight for him

Fight week between conor & nate would be just tho

 

[BlackSuperman]

I don't know why Nate is saying this. This is an excellent opportunity for him. If I were him, I would jump on this chance no hesitation.

No, Diaz is taking this. This is him literally using one of Conor's lines against him.

Somehow I feel that way about EVERYONE that fights Diaz. Diaz is seems slow and predictable but look at how he tooled Michael Johnson,Cerrone, Gray. All killers that I thought would've run Diaz over.

 

[FaTaL]

Diaz needs to take this to the ground to have any shot

 

[BlackSuperman]

Cerrone just fought at 170, so he's probably closer to 20 or 25 lbs. over right now with 11 days to cut weight...I think that's a bit crazy. Nate Diaz would be dope and what's Eddie Alvarez doin'? He's stylistically the most dangerous opponent available imo (not counting Khabib since he had the layoff).

Also,
Bellator 149 averages nearly 2 million viewers in record-breaking Spike TV broadcast (UPDATED)

We're bound to get another Kimbo event......you know what, they should do Kimbo vs Fedor, there's a freak fight that I'd actually look forward to.

Good lord, Fedor would hurt him more than he did that judoka (forget his name)

 

[The G.O.D II]

Diaz is much bigger and longer the Connor, which is something he's not use too. And he's more versatile with his BJJ then RDA. I favor Connor still but that matchup will give him problems.

No just no. Conor can't box off of his back and McGregor isn't better than Khabib. At all.

Lmaoo i watched that fight a few days ago that shyt is so classic

Naoya ogawa it was

Dont ever not touch gloves with fedor

 

[Roid Jones]

RDA

I hope it's Diaz, the shyt talking but I see Connor beating him up
