My fucking stream went to shit, I turn it on, get to see them interviewing Diaz. Conor wont go near 170 ever again, I guarantee that.

 

[isekii]

ground game had very little to do with the loss. Diaz kicked his ass standing. Conor was getting his ass kicked on his feet.


though I respect conor in his speech at the end.

His ground defense was pretty lacking and gave up his back pretty easily. Hopefully we see him talking less smack after the ass kicking he took tonight.

LoL yea~ he'll go back to fighting midgets.

 

[11thHour]

Rogan talked like this was the toughest and greatest accomplishment of Diaz career lol. Financially maybe.

 

[Shlong]

All these champions have weaknesses (ground game). The only ones without holes are Jon "Bones" Jones and Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson

And, McGregor only started losing because Diaz is a fucking man, not some 5'6 135lb child like Aldo. He can take McGregor hitting him.

This was easily the biggest fight of Diaz's career. But it certainly wasn't the toughest or the hardest fought win.

If Might Mouse was at like 155 or 185, he'd be the perfect UFC fighter. He is, technically, so good in every aspect of his game.

Aren't those numbers without the piece of the ppv? I assume all of them get padded with some of that.

[11thHour]

Meisha could probably choke out McGregor on the ground.

I hope you forgot about Werdum, and it's not that you think he has a weak ground game. Plus Bones isn't a champ, although that's only a matter of time.

He's "humble in victory"? That's more bs from him.

Diaz is a tough out, but I think half the contenders in the 170 category could have done the same. I don't think McGregor's got a chance against dos anjos either.

 

[WaTaGuMp]

LoL yea~ he'll go back to fighting midgets.

In which the midgets have even bagged on him for doing so. I say if you can cut to that weight and make it and own people, thats what you do.

True~ that's to his advantage. He should have never jumped that much in weight thought in fighting Diaz
.
Is he still suppose to fight Dos Anjos when he recovers?

His ego and money made him take the fight with Nate. They even talked about him beating Lawler, oh come on, Lawler will be MUCH bigger if they fought. As far as I know, he will still fight RDA when he heals. Conor and Nate fought at a weight they didn't even cut for, Conor is just not use to fighting at that weight.

Eh, I honestly think at 155, Diaz would have done the same. I think Conor will have trouble outside of 145 unless he can get real power behind his hits. He caught Diaz pretty good, but it didn't really stop him.

Diaz has a really good chin, I dont think he has been knocked out.

He hasn't. Which is why I thought it would go to decision with McGregor getting the "champ bump". I didn't expect Diaz to be able to catch him to cleanly, but once he did, it was over.
