Report: McGregor demands more money, delays UFC 197 announcement

That came from Ali Abdel Aziz or aldo's pet journalists in brazil.

It didn't come from a legit source.

^^^That would be a good fight to make happen.. I'd have to go with Robbie Lawler in the rematch.. Ruthless has improved since that first match up and Nick Diaz has probably declined a bit since he hasn't been fighting much lately..

Judges will always give the decisions to Ruthless Robbie as well.. He's a judging favorite even if he's losing the fight on points..

Jacare is gonna slaughter a steroid free aging Belfort.. Jacare will take down Vitor immediately and finish him by way of Sub probably.. I'll be looking for Jacare ITD prop with that fight..

A Rockhold/Weidman 2 would be interesting to see I guess.. I'd have to go with Luke this 2nd time around as I don't think Weidman has a real love for the sport anymore.. That eye of the Tiger looks gone to me.. All he talks about is his family and kids in interviews, it's like he got soft or something.. He wasn't the old gritty and determined Weidman that I was use to seeing anyways.. Lost his mojo and swag a bit IMO..

**Killer_Demo** · 01-20-16, 01:50 AM

Lawler vs condit 2 or Lawler vs nick diaz 2. Cant miss with either fight. Nick will stockton-slap robbie like last fight. Condit will push robbie to limit again.

I was until I saw that last fight of his.. He gave up mid fight and showed no championship heart. He needs to quit MMA and go spend time with his loving family and live happily ever after.. That's what I'm reading into..

Luke smokes him in the rematch...

**PaperTrail07** · 01-20-16, 12:50 PM

Rockhold will mop up Weidman again....Souza Vs belfort is almost a joke IMO....Props to belfort though---never an easy fight - wants the best

**PaperTrail07** · 01-20-16, 12:51 PM

JIBBBY he simply got his ass kicked...no way around it...it will happen again...

**PaperTrail07** · 01-20-16, 12:52 PM

If i were Weidman---I would fake an injury---have someone else fight rockhold...hopefully have him beat0then take the belt LOL....not running head first into another loss...

I'm not sure what fight you guys watched, but it was very competitive until that ridiculous spinning kick that resulted in him being on his back and getting pounded out

This. 1-1 and Weedman was winning the round. Both fighters looked worse than usual though.

**PaperTrail07** · 01-20-16, 01:17 PM

lol lot of fights are competitive until they arent lmao...come on...

good luck if you think Weidman is going to end up on the ground because he threw some dumb spinning kick next time around. I can't wait for the rematch. Probably won't bet it, but I think it'll be a very close fight AGAIN

**PaperTrail07** · 01-20-16, 01:33 PM

Luke started to take over at the end of round 1 nd nver lookd back IMO......

Would agree Weidman wont let THAT happen again though

**JIBBBY** · 01-20-16, 01:47 PM

It's like Rhonda Rousey fighting Holly Holm again.. Bad idea

Ya Luke beat the champ with one leg.

McMouth talking up a storm at the news conference today.. Says he will knock out the slower version of Aldo (RDA) in the first round.. RDA not having any of it, probably because he couldn't understand what he was saying.. Lol..

This Irish man is amusing to say the least..

If he knocks out RDA in the 1st round I'll be like...

Why would you be shocked, he's the best striker in the ufc and hits like a truck. I won't be surprised, that's exactly what rda is, as slower version of aldo, loose pressure fighters will always get dominated by mcgregor, rda is too hitable to last long with mcgregor.

We'll because all RDA does is just win fights and against top level competition in his division, he is the current UFC champion by the way also... RDA will be at his normal fighting weight and McGregor won't.. RDA has superior wrestling and a very good Jits ground game as well and I think that will be the difference in this fight..

I will say this, McGregor better finish RDA in that first round or he'll get taken down and then sub'd out at some point.. RDA will take his back... RDA has some very well timed take downs in his bag of tricks and I'm pretty sure he'll use them..

One other thing - RDA is use to getting hit by fighters in his weight division so I'm not so convinced McGregor will deliver the same power and effect if he connects on RDA like he did in the lighter weight class. I'm also pretty sure McGregor hasn't fought someone as strong and as big as RDA in the Octagon yet either....

Hey but McGregor surprises me with every fight so maybe this will be no different.. Maybe his speed will be too much for RDA..

I'll be watching that's for sure!!!!

**JIBBBY** · 01-20-16, 11:01 PM

Oh and one more thing - I also just remember RDA making Pettis look like a class B fighter in the cage in their last fight.. I think Pettis is a stand up fighter similar to McGregor in some ways... RDA also did a number on Cowboy and Nate Diaz whom are both stand up based fighters before that... http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Rafael-dos-Anjos-11675

Yep my money is on RDA.. I learned not to bet against that guy over the last year.. He surprised me too...

Dude's got a baseball bat for a leg kick, just ask Nate and Cowboy about that...

**getlucky2win** · 01-21-16, 02:34 AM

rda is not like aldo. rda is one of the best pressure fighters there is right now. thats not aldos style at all. i also really like kings mma with cordeiro. i could see 1st rnd ko cuz mcgoat is a great counter puncher. im gonna watch more tape on rda. this is mcgoats toughest fight. unless he goes up another division vs some wrestlers. him fighting lawler for a 3rd belt would be awesome. and i think he could do it. if he gets past rda he can beat anyone. edgar, pettis, alvarez, ferguson, both diaz bros, condit, and lawler are all easily beatable by mcgoat

**PaperTrail07** · 01-21-16, 02:03 PM

RDA by rear naked choke in the 2nd.....

**PaperTrail07** · 01-21-16, 02:06 PM

Ferguson would beat McG....does not even deserve this shot...

**strictlypaypal** · 01-21-16, 02:58 PM

Just bought my tickets to 197, planning on going big on mcgregor.

Will be glorious
