Return of the King - Official UFC 197: Jones vs St. Preux thread. Apr 23

[semtex]

After this weekend, who do yall want Barboza to fight next? A couple more big wins and he'll probably get a title shot.

Conor mcgregor

Probably did a line off her ass that night

waiting for the inevitable blurry vid or pic to show up the next time he's lined up to fight

McGreger-Barboza would be .

Neither guy would go to the ground...Barboza probably hits harder but McGregor probably has a better chin...

Barboza's a top 5 guy @ lw...Conor's the best featherweight in the world.....maaaaaaaan let's do this.

Conor would get KOed. He's good but he ain't standing up to that LW power.

^^^Why do you assume McGregor doesn't have that LW power?

McGregor couldn't knock out a durable guy @ welterweight...but just the same...Diaz wasn't walking through Conor's punches....Conor is probably as powerful as Jamie Varner and Varner(and the cage ) tko'd Barboza.

And from the Varner, Pearson and El Cucuy fights....we know Barboza can struggle from dudes constantly staying in his face...

I'm not convinced that Diaz not backing down from Conor has made him less than a bully now....Conor's gonna try to smother Barboza's range and lay those paws on him.

But I do think Barboza is getting better all the time....I have Conor as like....a 60/40 favorite if this fight ever materializes. Hopefully that's their next fight and winner gets Alvarez-RDS winner.

Jon-Cormier @ 200 and Barboza getting closer to a title fight....thank you, UFC197
