    Got $2750 on mcgregor and will probably play more if it's still on. If it's Mendez still play mcgregor and win em both.

          100% they put too much $ into this fight for it to be "cancelled"

              The Champ hasn't lost in 10 years.. Don't see why he should start losing now.. He's beaten the best along the way.. http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Jose-Aldo-11506

                      No, they don't. They've been off since news of the injury.

                                Rory Mac is free money, no idea how the line keeps dropping. Lawler does nothing for the middle 3 rounds in all his fights.

                                  I don't see what's so free about paying -180 to play Rory considering Robbie Lawler already beat him once already just 2 years ago..http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Rory-MacDonald-14018


                                  <small>UFC 189 - Welterweight 5 rounds - MGM Grand Garden Arena - Las Vegas, Nevada - PPV</small>
                                  Sat 7/11 1101 Rory MacDonald <input id="radiox" value="M1_1" name="radiox" type="radio">-180 <input id="radiox" value="L1_1" name="radiox" type="radio">o3½ -170
                                  11:30PM 1102 Robbie Lawler <input id="radiox" value="M2_1" name="radiox" type="radio">+158 <input id="radiox" value="L2_1" name="radiox" type="radio">u3½ +150
                                  I agree though, Rory probably does pick him apart for 5 rounds to a decision win this second go around..

                                  1107 MacDonald wins by 5 round decision <input id="radiox" value="M1_2" name="radiox" type="radio">+165

                                    A razor close 3 rounder. Razor close, MacD ended in top position. This is a 5 rounder, and in a 5 rounder, Lawler basically stops fighting in the middle 3 rounds.

                                      True but Lawler only had to train for 3 rounds going into that first fight.. He's gone the 5 rounds in 3 of his last 4 against top opponents.. http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Robbie-Lawler-2245

                                      If anything I'd be concerned more about Rory Mac fighting past the 3 rounds.. Rory has never fought past the 3rd round in his MMA career.. That's going into uncharted waters for Rory...http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Rory-MacDonald-14018

                                      These are the facts and they are undisputed....

                                        Yes, he has and that's the problem.

                                        Rewatch his last Hendricks fight. He did NOTHING in rounds 2-3-4. Nothing wants so ever, and should quite clearly have lost that fight.

                                          Rory vs Tarec was a 5 rounder. He finished that bum quick.

                                                I've been going back and forth for a couple of months on aldo or mcnuts..I was set on aldo in the beginning however I think i've changed my mind. Mcnut's confidence is what I'm worried about, He thinks he'll win regardless. This is how weidman acted before the first silva fight and look what happened?

                                                I think if there's ever a time for aldo to lose it'd be now. He usually gets tagged and rocked in every fight. If mcnuts touches him I think he'll get the ko..Don't see this fight going to decision at all. I don't see how mcgregor can lose this and if he does I don't see how he can show his face again(from a fan's perspective) in the ufc..I mean, you'd think he'd be extremely embarrassed, would lose a lot of fans, and respect. Plus, his mouth wouldn't work anymore for future fights since he didn't back up a damn thing and lost to aldo..know what Im sayin'?

Mcnut's confidence is what I'm worried about, He thinks he'll win regardless. This is how weidman acted before the first silva fight and look what happened?

                                                    I think if there's ever a time for aldo to lose it'd be now. He usually gets tagged and rocked in every fight. If mcnuts touches him I think he'll get the ko..Don't see this fight going to decision at all. I don't see how mcgregor can lose this and if he does I don't see how he can show his face again(from a fan's perspective) in the ufc..I mean, you'd think he'd be extremely embarrassed, would lose a lot of fans, and respect. Plus, his mouth wouldn't work anymore for future fights since he didn't back up a damn thing and lost to aldo..know what Im sayin'?
                                                    If you do think Aldo has a suspect chin Shabang then Mcnuggets most likely pathway to victory is by KO then.. I can't remember what the odds were on that KO prop as they are still off the board..

                                                    I do think if McClown is to win it's gonna be by KO, doubt he wins by 5 round decision or submission... The under 2.5 at +100 could be something to consider as well...

                                                    Aldo could finish as McGregs chin has really never been tested..... Aldo has a mean straight right...

                                                      I will say one thing going in favor of McConrad is that he is a southpaw.. Aldo could have some trouble with that maybe???...

                                                        "I think he makes the walk based on the financial impact alone," Stann said. "Here's the positive things for Jose Aldo going into this fight: This fight is going to make him an awful lot of money -- win, lose or draw. He's the only featherweight champion in history. I think he merits, no matter what, an immediate rematch if he were to lose this fight. For him, he takes the fight, there's already a built-in thing where if the performance is terrible people are going to point to the ribs first. And there's great build-up for a rematch and he'll get another great payday."

                                                          ^ I think Stann's remarks have as much substance as a fart in the wind...

                                                          I'd be shocked to see the Champion Aldo tank in this fight, quit or give anything less then a 100%.. Here's my belt I quit Conor.. Not happening.. Brazilians have alot of pride and if Aldo shows up, rib hurting or not he will throw down and give it his all once the bell sounds...

                                                          Besides it's hard to throw a fight at this level unless you quit in between rounds.. McGregor is not one to take the neck if it's offered up as he looks to knock you out... That's like saying Anderson Silva in his prime when being the UFC champ throwing a fight for more money to come in a rematch.. Just not happening....

                                                          Aldo has been the UFC champ for years and if he wins it cements his legacy even further as the greatest and then he becomes even a bigger draw in the future.. He's only 28 years old and in his prime..

                                                          To think Aldo giving anything less then his all going into this fight especially after Mcrude tried to take his belt at a press conference and after talking all that smack is absurd.. I don't think he's scared either as he's faced scary opponents before..

                                                          The rib injury excuse is just an insurance policy that's it... Like Dana White said relax...

                                                                  Simple put - If the stiff striking Rick Story can beat Gunnar Nelson overseas and basically in his own backyard chances are Brandon Thatch is gonna smoke Gunner Nelson here in the States in this rebound fight especially after getting beat by Benson Henderson the way he did.. http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Brandon-Thatch-22298

                                                                  Gunnar Nelson was not impressive at all in his last fight from what I saw... Thatch was very much game against Benson Henderson in that fight until he lost in round 4 to rear naked choke... This will be Gunnar Nelsons stiffest test to date IMO regardless win or lose...

                                                                  This is a scheduled 3 round fight and I think that helps Thatch's chances in this one as well...
