A fluke my ass, Mcgregor was big and probably as strong as he has ever been going into that first fight. Took it to Nate and tried to knock him out.. Hit him with everything and Nate hung in and then Nate's cardio advantage took over.. Once he started landing those peppering long punches McGregor was done..

Fight then hit the ground and it was over just like that because Nate has outstanding subs... Nothing McGregor can do better in this fight, he surely can't hit harder being smaller now, doubt he's gonna try to go out swinging early on either.. Nate picks him apart again with his boxing and length if it's a point contest.. Just that simple..

Keep in mind Nate has a full training camp this go around and will even be a sharper fighter in this rematch.. McGregor only chance is to try and KO Nate again and hit him clean cold..

Nate by KO or Sub again...

Fighters to beat the Diaz bro's are strong wrestlers, not guys like McGregor with no ground.. It's hard to out work and out point the Diaz brothers standing.. Both have solid chins and big heart and refuse to get punked. They don't get tired either..

Was a fluke. Nate looked like shit the first round and could have gotten knocked out. Mcgregors lrft hanf is deadly ask jose aldo who has a good chin and got knocked out by mcgregor.Cardio advantage? He won early in the second round. Mcgregor was not gassed after one round.everyone was saying the same about aldo and his kicks. Mcgregor has no chance blah blah.

Nothing mcgregor can do better in this fight? I've gone up in weight for my mma fights and still knocked a guy out. If you hit the chin right it knocks you out. I don't care how good of a "chin" somebody has. Mcgregor is a better striker with his leg kicks. Also has more knockout power. Can never trust a diaz and that's why they never win belts.

Full training camp doesn't matter that much. Mcgregor i doubt is making no improvements from what happened last time. Fighters win even after losing to the opponent before.with the stupid shit the diaz brothers do and all there antics who knows what nate will do in the cage could be sharper or duller.He's not even an amazing fighter. Loses plenty.

Mcgregor by tko second round

Mcgregor i bet made good improvements and will come out with a better gameplan. He won the first round so to say mcgregor no chance is ridiculous. He has the heart of a champion and if he felt he wouldn't win he wouldn't fight him. He does not want to losses to the same opponent on his record. He's going to make a statement and knock him out. Diaz isn't a good enought fighter to beat mcgregor twice, he's just a showboat.

You're right he didn't gas. HE QUIT. PUNKED OUT. Became a bitch in 7 mins. As a former fighter these are things that don't change in a couple months. Diaz will BREAK him again. Watch.

A former fighter would know that he didn't quit. Nobody wins a round and quits. So I doubt you were. Also would know to never take opponents you can't beat. If he quits he wouldn't do the same thing.

They do if they have a extremely massive ego, and Conor quit. When he realized he was shit out of luck in there, and that the result he had envisioned was not achievable he mentally quit.

Also, conor's kicking game is nothing to write home about.

It's laughable that you are trying to pass yourself off as an experienced person in martial arts, and then go talk about Conor KO'ing Aldo. That KO required VERY little power from Mcgregor, Aldo created all the momentum needed when he darted and put himself in full motion forward, that KO was all about precision.

And stop trying to talk about that first round against Nate like it was some fkn 10 - 8 round you daft cnt, Conor outlanded Diaz by a few strikes that's it.

''Heart of a champion'' are you on acid you dumbfck? how in the fck are you gonna try and claim that a person who hasn't defended a single fkn belt he's won in his life has a heart of a champion?

''with his legkicks'' i lol'd take your tapout t-shirt and go fck yourself clownboy.

**plekz** · 08-10-16, 11:13 AM

You realize that Conor asked for fights a WW and talked superfights with Lawler and such? He's a 170+ WAW talking about fighting guys that cut from 200-215

Lawler would fracture his skull.

Don't take fights you know you can't win??? Wtf are you talking about??? Dude the real guys on here know who I am. Never said I was a UFC vet but have fought one. And yes he quit when he realized Diaz was not goin to quit. Why shoot a double??

The real guys, not the fake guys? What gym you even fight for? He went for the double because he was rocked. It's what you do to try to recover and you say you're a fighter? He wouldn't take the fight if he didn't think he would win. Also the odds suggest it.

So many things wrong with his post but you are not very intelligent anyways.In my opinion champions try to win rematches against people that beat them. He even said he will defend the belt after this rematch. No disrespect for mcgregor for trying to beat him. So many fakes and mcgregor haters on this forum.

Well, I'm sure a lot of us dislike McGregor (he's a disrespectful oyster), but we also are here to make the best decisions on betting. I, and I would think many others here, are very open to counter opinions if you can present a valid argument. You have not.

McGregor got rocked in the first fight, and turned into a panic wrestler. He even said himself that he should ave stayed on the feet and circled away. Basically, when he was in trouble, he made a terrible decision and put himself in a terrible spot-- as if he wanted a way out. He gave up the choke pretty easy and tapped very quickly. Now, there's no shame in being subbed by Nate, but Mcgregor's mouth, plus the fact that Holly WENT TO SLEEP while fighting the choke from Miesha 30 minutes earlier made Conor look like he quit. Conor's ego is his worst quality. When the fight got tough, Mcgregor took an elite BJJ fighter down and panicked, someting Nate would never do. We shall see though.

Brosif, you are the clownfk that said Conor has a ''heart of a champion'' eventhough he hasn't defended a belt he's won EVER. And trust me, there is no part of Conor that wants to make that cut down to 145 again. Why the fck do you think he's doing everything he can to try and market himself for the divisions above?

Conor hasn't cut to FW without the use of an IV and with the new 8% rule in place, and he looked like death even before those changes.

He asked for Nate again @ 170 because if he'd asked to drop to 155 (after already having lost to Nate @ 170 with 10 days prep) he would have completly fked himself out of ever having a shot at establishing himself @ 155 without having to make the long grinding trek to a titleshot.

You are a grade A fcking moron.

**JIBBBY** · 08-10-16, 01:03 PM

I'm a fighter so I know what McGregor was thinking, is this what I'm really reading? Lol.... This thread has become laughable...

Plekz dropping the hammer and making sense...

You are an A+ dumbass. Mcgregor even said he will defend his belt in the press conference. He's had two fights so far. Go cry in a corner about him not defending his belt yet I'll provide the tissue.

Yea because nate diaz never is disrespectful, shut the penetrate up if you don't think he's just as bad or worse

Why you mad homie? Nate talks shit, yes. No problem with that. I also have no problem with Connor just talking shit either. But when Connor tries to shit on people calling them bums, talking shit for training kids, helping elderly, actually doing something positive: he crosses the line into being disrespectful.

Take Connor's balls outta your mouth and chill.

He said the same after he won the belt, still hasn't defended fck all, instead he tried to get fights in the divisions above. And it's fact that he hasn't defended a belt in his life in any of the promotions he's been in. It's fcking hilarious though that a ''grown man'' takes everything said by Conor Mcgregor at pressevents as gospel.

How fkn blue are your eyes mate?

McGregor was not giving Diaz shit for training with kids, per se. Instead, McGregor was making fun of how Diaz's cholo-gangster persona is incongruent with Diaz's much more family-friendly daily life. McGregor was calling Diaz a poser. He had a nice line in there about how Diaz was flashing gang signs with one hand and making animal balloons for the kids with the other. Funny shit.

Da-fuk you watching?

Connor was gassing in that fight and the Mendes fight (both of which he had a full camp for). Connor has had some fight go long, but not ones where he was taking much damage.

This fight is all kinds of bad for Mac C. Diaz needs to just pop him a few times and Connor is off his game and entering panic mode.

Mcgregor last more then 1 round in ufc. He doesn't gas after 1 round, this isn't heavyweights. He was rocked not gassed.

lmaooooo, he gassed which led him to getting rocked its an easy equation
TY$ understands at least, im gonna watch some tape tonight and give some more info tonight or tomorrow actually
saying its not heavyweight means nothing demonata, you can gas at any weight class lmao ive seen flyweights be dead after a round
its all about output, what you get hit with , adrenaline dumps theres plenty of different reasons to be gassed in a fight, if theres thousands of people screaming and youre throwing the biggest shots you can for 6-7 minutes straight plus youre fighting at the highest weight you ever have before you can definitely get gassed much faster especially when diaz picks his pace up not many can keep up

Saw that happen with Joshknows as a main target in the past.. He couldn't take the heat... We got some new targets emerging..

Nate Diaz is such a retard that its unbelievable. GUy cant speak in sentences. Even the sound of his voice is retarded. Nobody understands him thats why they put subtitles in the video for him. Guy has serious brain damage and UFC 202 wont do him any good.

The main event is a live bet imo. Odds are the same right now. They both can talk all day but its important to get a feel for the first round. Vegetable Nate is very durable and Conors only path to victory is by points.

With his superior movement he can avoid Nate all day and just pepper him with shots with cardio management in mind. Anybody that has eyes could see Conor was able to avoid Nate and he could see all his shots coming from a mile away. In round 2 Conor planted his feet and started to stand right in front of Nate. His shots didnt have any snap. Nate protected his gastank and it was all over.

Long story short: If Conor again goes for a nonstop attacking style (spinning techniques, combination shots) he is going to lose. He easily has the tools to win a u. dec.

He is improving. Watch the exchange interview with Megan Olivi. Might be the first time he has sentences. lol
