Diaz... potentially the only guy that talks more shit than McGregor 
(Not saying Connor doesn't back it up tho.)
Gonna be an interesting one I reckon, but imo McGregor looks in way better chape

Connor gotta be favourite but wouldn't be surprised if he got banged. First time fighting someone with a longer reach,moving up weight. IV banned now probably why hes moving up weight he water depletes a lot more weight than most fighters.
Diaz looking crap is just genetics just like Tyson Fury looks a skinny/fat mess

Miesha vs Rousey and then Rousey vs Holly. Should be good.
Big time! Didn't expect that at all. What a fight though, Diaz is a tough mofo.. now I need to sleep, it's 7am!

Just when i started to like McGregor for his fight anyone anytime attitude(and the ability to fu*k anyone with his words in Press Conference.), This happens.
Respect to Nate Diaz, He is Bada** too.
As a fellow Irishman and McGregor supporter i totally agree.
Thought Conor had it sorted end of round one/beginning of round two, he kept on his toes and when Diaz took him down went back to his feet.
As said by the commentators Conor is humble in victory and defeat (something like that) Conor loves to win but learns from defeat and he will be back.
Diaz deserves a title shot for his performance.
As for holly Holmes losing the title i would love to see a Miesha v Rousey title fight as i think both fighters really want it and it wont go the distance with one winning by TKO/KO/Submission

Miesha vs Rousey and then a rematch (if Rousey wins) with Holly would be pretty good.
I'm not surprised Conner lost. A lot of people forgot he's fighting a weight class up which is actually at the weight class he should be really fighting at. In combat sports with any grappling/wrestling, weight class matters but most of the fighter cut weight then on fight night they can weigh 20lbs more than the required weight class. I think if the fighters had to weigh in and fight the same day half the champions wouldn't be their any more. It would be all new people lol.

Nate took some big shot early. One punch can change the fight and we saw it yesterday. Nate tagged Mcgregor wit a nice combo and Mystic Mac couldn't recover on time. What really impressed me with Mcgregor was his ability to close the distance.. It was beautiful to watch.
As a fellow Canadian, I had hope that Mcgregor would win this match then GSP coming into the octagon to challenge him at #200. I am a big Mcgregor man but and even bigger GSP fan and I want him back ��
Wow somebody here actually knows the fight game lol.
