[The G.O.D II]

I guess the return of GSP to fight Lawler at 200 will happen? Him being ready to come back has practically been the biggest non secret in MMA for about half a year now, regardless of Dana saying hes done

Going on a hunch here but I think it has to do with the man he beat prancing around town with his belt. fighters have a lot of pride, and Jones not only earned the belt but defeneded it from other peoples hands touching it 8 times.

its like Jordan having Patrick Ewing doing the tonights show with his NBA trophy. that shyt must be infuriating.

ps. Im not saying Jones didnt deserve to lose the belt tho.

Am I the only one who hates this matchup of Connor/RDA?

Conor should hate it but he's going to learn.

 

[Screwface Exchange]

Maybe it's just me but it seems a lot of fighters are either retired or talking about it

Once a fighter gets his name established and is starting to past their prime that coaching/gym money is too much to turn down after a while.

U can make a good living opening gyms showing up a cpl times a week to show face. Settle down wifey up some fitness model hoe have sum roid kids and relax a bit. And if you have a cpl solid prospects in your gym you can make 100k a yr off them and the gym if your lucky. Without having to get your face bloody every 3 months.

No way Conor isn't the favorite against RDA. At this point he'd be the favorite against anyone not named Jon Jones

Read Conor's response to Mayweather about the race thing. I guess this muthafukker forgot that in the not so distant past and still to this day, black men were/are routinely killed because of their skin tone. Now he's talking about wanting to fight Floyd that guy needs to check his ego. I think all this shyt is starting to get to him.

I'm done doubting Conor.

As much as I want RDA to win I know deep down that Conor's going to find a way to win this fight, and he's probably going to put RDA to sleep

I don't know enough about RDA to pick this fight. But if he's an underdog I'd put $100 on him.

He killed Corrone.
Killed my favorite fighter Benson Henderson
Killed my least favorite fight Pettis

And 1 thing I do know is that all those guys I mentioned would probably beat everyone at 145.

So yeah, RDA is great

Connor has surprised many with his run but he ain't beating RDA come on man. McGregor's TDD is most likely worse than pettis's is so dude don't even have to make it look pretty, he could just beat him via death by smothering.

thought it was just me but something about this fuker has always irked me. Lol at ufc acting like he was the next big thing before he had even defended his title once

Gotta account for McG not having to cut to 145

I am also accounting for the lack of wrestling/grappling coaches in europe
