UFC 196: Nate Diaz vs. McGregor & Holm vs Tate (Sat. March 5th, 10 p.m. ET)

[Skooby]

seriously ufc brass gotta be shytting themselves right now. you KNOW they wanted that holm/rousey re-match....i mean let's be honest, even as fans, as great as it was to see meisha win, ronda vs tate for 486th time isn't really appealing at all. plus you KNOW they wanted golden boy conor to move up 2 weightclasses and beat the bigger, shyt-talking, tough guy and add the narrative...to make the marketing campaign THAT much bigger...


and both plans got fukked up big time! now meshia's and nate's agents are sitting across the table like :bettercallsaul:

Holm/Rousey can still happen. Why can't they fight each other and then the winner gets Tate.

They got to bring Cyborg in somehow too...I hope. She'll destroy all three of them.

Abused him like a redheaded stepchild

Honestly, I don't think UFC brass will be too bent out of shape about this. Seemed to me Conor was talking like he was bigger than the company and this loss will male him fall back in line instead of him thinking he runs the show and can do whatever he wants.

midgets, Connor isn't even that tall. I think he's really 5'9 or 10. But I think he will probably fight Edgar next(145)and if he wins then Dana will definitely give him a shot at 155. Which I think he will still rock ppl. I thought he was ballsy(and not a good business move)to move up to 170. But it wasn't really a major risk cause he still has a belt and if he starts another win streak this will mean nothing except for Nate beats up on midgets Of Connor can get a ground game then it's over.

i think he can competitive at 155, thats probably his best weight, hes cutting way to much to make 145

 

[Lord Beasley]

These two really runnin shyt right now. They know it, Dana knows it.

We'll see if they skip the Holly rematch to give Honda one

 

[yo moms]

Called it

they call you mystic monster becus you predict tese tings

 

[semtex]

The hype train isn't done, and neither is his career, he'll probably keep on being the top dog at 145/155

The "unbeatable" aura is gone. The thing I like most about this ain't even Conor losing, it's his annoying ass fans

 

[keepemup]

And you could tell that Conor punches wasn't fazzing Nate.

He was rolling a lot of them very well, but let Rogan tell it...

 

[calixprynce]

So dudes gon front and act like McGregor didn't have a convincing performance ?

That first round was a lesson in head movement and counter punching for 99% of the UFC's top ranked fighters, it was flawless.

That punch took the brains out of conor tho

The hype train isn't done, and neither is his career, he'll probably keep on being the top dog at 145/155

1st round. thats what happens when you aint used to long fights
nikka conditioning is trash
and he let another man roll him over into a chokehold
chump ass midget got exposed

 

[GoddamnyamanProf]

Did McGregor throw it or what? Diaz got fukked up in the first then Conor just dropped his hands and started fukkin around, got tagged. What was he doing?
