    Mendes is going to school this Irish wannabe gangsta clown. The sarcastic McGOAT chants and ridiculous hype has gotten to the oddsmakers it seems. I realize he's a legit fighter, and top 5 FW... but Mendes is being underrated in this one, he went toe to toe with Aldo last time. He should be at least -150 if not -200. Midge Mendes by RNC in rd 3.

      Here's the deal : EVen if mendes takes mcmuppet down he'll pop right back up, I have no doubt about it. So with that being said, it'll most likely turn into a slug fest on the feet just like with aldo and mendes (since mendes couldn't take aldo down) same concept. Some guys just have to good of tdd so there's no choice but to stand, I'm pretty sure mcmuppet is one of these guys with ultra good tdd. Not hard to see who wins on the feet, mcmuppet all day.

        I know nothing about UFC but you never count out an Irishman. McGeezy will give this puto all he wants.

            Like Mendes said there's "quit" in McGregor. He's tapped out in less than a minute twice in his career. I wouldn't mind seeing Mendes / Aldo III again.

I know they're trying to save the card and everything but it retarded. You sure as hell don't make a interim belt for this just because Aldo got his ribs hurt fukkin stupid.
              MMA fighters sheltered like boxers? As much as I love watching -3000 favorites. No thanks.

                You're missing the point Brock could have been bigger than fedor bigger than ronda bigger than mcgregor... maybe not better than fedor who knows they shit the bed on that one but for sure he could have been bigger check his social media stats he would have been the face of the ufc if they groomed him right. UFC is learning on the fly I noticed C.M. punk Is possibly getting pushed back to 2016 for his first fight...smart. Bet you he wont be fighting a former ufc champ in his debut. This isn't 2003 theres $$ in the sport everybody even Dana joe silva know they dropped the ball on Brock....ps mma is becoming boxing on the local circuit guys are can crushing Dana said as long as you have a good record hes fine with it...True story brah.

                  it worked for Jason Reinhardt only losses in mma are in the ufc maybe because 20 fights in hes not fighting dudes that are 1-8 AFTER being in the UFC. The smart camps are can crushing boss don't just look at the records look at the opponents and who they fought.

                                I call it the "suck on these move".

                                A few of my pinning combos ended like that.

                                  That is the dumbest angle I've ever heard. If you know the sub is 100% locked, theres nothing wrong with tapping quick, to avoid unnecessary bodily harm.

                                    So tempted to take both underdogs Lawler and mendes.

                                    I think Lawler takes it. Just overall more power and aggression.

                                              i guess that's what ufc needs to sell fights nowadays, a fukking piece of shit villain.

                                                    100% can lose but might be rigged for the sport

                                                    The more he wins the better for sport

                                                        He showed the knee at the weigh ins, but I don't think he throws a knee that early in the fight, the uppercut hook he loves to counter with would work just as good, he's too accurate and powerful with his hands to risk throwing a knee that early in the fight. That uppercut hook with chad rushing in for a takedown would create a hell of a force. I don't think chad shoots for the takedown right away though, he's talked about it too much for that to be his gameplan, he'll test the waters standing for a few minutes before he relizes he's in deep water, I believe he's confident in his hands and chin. He wants Conor worried about the takedown to slow Conor in the stand-up game, but Conor has shown good takedown defense and excellent grappling, so all the talk of him taking him down is falling on deaf ears, Conor's only worry in this fight is the overhand right from mendes.

                                                          I was just reading Benjamin Lee Eckstein's column, because I wanted his baseball views, I don't know shit about MMA/UFC or any other fight club, because there is not enough time to have working knowledge on all the sports,but Eckstein was talking about this fight in his daily syndicated write up, and he mentioned that Joe Rogan thinks the wrong guy is favored, Mendes can croak the Irishman, yadda, yadda, yadda.

                                                          I was going to ask you guys (but I stumbled on this thread) if Mendes was a good bet at +150

                                                          Who has the video feed for this bout? PPV? Call my cable provider if I want to watch it deal?

                                                            first of all. don't listen to rogan. he gets paid to spew nonsense. secondly, i'm not gonna bet on this fight due to many reasons.

                                                            just watch and enjoy. i think it's gonna be a good fight...
