Conor McGregor talks return to 145, snubs Aldo

[Brozay]

Division he owns? He managed to catch lightning in a bottle.with.that quick ko against an angry Aldo. fukk outta here, Aldo murders.him in.the rematch and Edgar.would.whoop that ass too. Yes hes shook.to go back to 145 cuz then.hed have to defend, lose.his belt then lose some stock. Hed be better off vacating.it right now while hes still up. You prolly.thought JDS owned the division when he caught Cain and look how.that.turned out.

Lightning in a bottle, OK breh

So shook of 145 he gonna run to 155, makes sense

Yeah it was lightning in a bottle, an angry Aldo ran into Conors left.hand. You act like he decisively picked him apart and finished him or some shyt. A fast ko on the first fight isnt decisive enough, anyone can get caught.breh. If he does the same.thing in the rematch, youd.have a point...but the rematch hasnt.happened yet.
Its not.the weight, hes afraid of.losing that belt.because.such an L would put a dent.in.his career. Lets not forget that he won a close decision vs Nate, but was finished prior to that. He still somewhat has to redeem himself a bit more, and if.he goes against.the Aldo.that beat Edgar, hes losing that belt for sure, so yes hes gonna run to 155 so.he can hold on to that.belt and still get paid. If Aldo takes that belt, his stock drops and people will doubt him again. You act like he dominated Nate, people.still kinda have.their doubts now. With his gas.tank, hed.have to put Aldo away early again, or else hell be methodically.chopped down and picked apart the longer the fight goes. Hes kinda like a small Anthony Johnson, dangerous as fukk early.with dynamite in his hands but gasses out quickly.

McG wants to have two belts at once desperately. It's a goal of his for maybe pride purposes, but definitely for marketing purposes.

Going down to 45 and losing the belt would destroy his dream of being a two division champ.

He may only get one shot at it (being a 2 div champ), so if he's smart, he goes for the gold at 55 first.

Even if that means that he was to vacate the 45 belt, he can always say that he never lost it and would be given a fight at 45 immediately if he happens to win the 55 belt

See, this breh gets it...and he knows that Aldo stands a very good chance at taking that belt, especially after his performance against Diaz. Now honestly even after seeing that, he has no chance to get the 155 belt. I dont see him getting past any other of the top 5 and RDA or Alvarez especially would fukking destroy him. On the other hand, he could play smart all he wants but soon its gonna be out of his hands because he cant continue keeping 145 at a standstill. Hes either gonna have to defend and then get his 155 shot or vacate and move up. Cant have it both ways or else the legitimacy of the sport goes all the way out the window. Ufc can keep playing their favoritism game all they want, Bellator is growing slowly but surely and if fighters keep getting fed up with the politics and bs pay, theyre gonna jump ship.

You don't know shyt about fighting Conner slept Aldo before I could spark my l, there's no way Aldo overcomes that mental hurdle of being slept instantly not to mention a boost that would give conner in a rematch...

Id say you know jack shyt about fighting because fighters have.bounced back from ko losses to avenge them time and time again. Prime example, Cain vs JDS...or shyt, Crocop vs Gonzaga, hell, Wanderlei fukking murdered Rampage twice before getting ktfo in the third fight if you wanna talk about the mental edge, or shyt, GSP vs Serra, Crocop vs Randleman 2, dont fukking tell me i dont know shyt about fighting, especially mma breh. Fact of.the matter is Aldo prior to his L with Conor was undefeated for over a decade, he gets caught fighting angry and suddenly Conor is leagues above him or some shyt? Anyone can get caught, getting caught 13 seconds in during 1 fight doesnt define shyt as far as who is the better fighter. Did you see Aldos fight vs Edgar? Dude looked sharp, calculated, like he normally is, not angry and headhunting like he did with Conor. What happened thst night would happen prolly 3 outta 10 if they fought 10 matches. You are heavily overrating Conor based off of one fluke ass ko, if anyones showing they know jack shyt about mma, its you, stfu and stick to boxing, and miss me with your fraud ass fight psychology bullshyt, everyone swears they know the mental game in and out sitting on their couch. Talking about mental boost when Conors been exposed out here...

I have Aldo whooping that ass if he shows up composed along with Edgar because stylistically hed be a nightmare for Mcgregor, good boxing, wrestling, solid chin and big gas tank. Hell, I could even see Mendes getting him in a rematch too....Conors TD defense isnt exactly that great and before the "but...but...he stuffed Nates takedowns" bullshyt, Nate is not known for his wrestling at all, only his jits.

155, he will get mauled. Diaz takes him in a rematch, Alvarez, RDA and Cowboy all wreck.his shyt.

I hate posters like who your responding too . Refusing to give Conor any Credit since they don't like him. Same with weidman. Rockhold embarrassed himself vs Bisping but he still getting more credit than weidman

You can quote me if you have something to say first off fukk nikka, secondly, lmao @ comparing Weidmanns win over Silva to Conors over Aldo. I actually give Weidmann far more credit than I would Conor because he was taking it to Silva prior to the KO then capitalized on him clowning...AND gave him a rematch. Conor gets a quick fluke KO on a fighter who was undefeated for over a decade then proceeds to do everything but give him a rematch. You just hate posters like me because were realists who dont buy the hype and look at shyt objectively. Conor is a great fighter, dont get me wrong, but hes not elite...and just because you suck his dikk doesnt mean everyone else has to. As Ive already mentioned, there have been many instances of fighters being caught in fights with people only to turn around and absolutely dominate the rematches. You stupid fukks act like the punchers chance doesnt exist nor was a factor in the fight.

They gotta run back that Aldo sh!t. The GOAT featherweight getting dusted in 13 seconds b/c he ran waterboy-style into the most lethal left hand in the sport. Aldo don't even really try to open up his offense until about 1 minute has passed. Didn't throw a single leg kick. Didn't attempt a shot(I know Aldo doesn't initiate wrestling...but we know his ground game is good and that's Conor's weaker skill). And Conor admitted after the fight that the punch Jose landed during the knockout was extremely powerful.

And Conor's 15 minute cardio looked fine when, on a torn ACL, he was out wrestling/fighting/working an already very good Max Holloway. And his cardio looked good against Mendes. Conor stuffed alot of those TDs. Conor kept getting up when he did get taken down. When he got up, he continued to march forward and throw heat at Mendes. I think his cardio just looks sh!tty @ 170 b/c:

1. He's carrying around more weight
2. He's having to manipulate a bigger opponents' weight.
3. Diaz is a cardio/pace guy of the highest order.

And yet he still went 25 minutes with Diaz while fighting with a damaged foot and ankle...Conor's cardio is good. But he's never gone 25 minutes@145 lbs.

There's just too many question marks on both sides for there not to be a rematch...the rematch is 50/50, at this point.
