Really didn't expect the second takedown to workout at all. If I'm remembering correctly, the second one didn't seem to have as much leverage as the first. Really risked a KO on that last bit, damn.
She did. Ate a right I think. But she hit her with a different takedown than the last few. Swung right with her balance and got it.

I didn't think I liked Tate this much until now. That's my underdog :mjcry:

Fistful of jewels
nate is like 6 ft tall so how is him fighting at lw not fighting midgets? How is aldo at 145 not fighting midgets then? By your standards bones should move up to heavyweight Bc his arms are so long, right? Connor is going to come out with a vengeance against Edgar then probably rock aldo again then we will see what he does at 155. He got rocked and subbed. shyt happens but don't act like Conor using his reach and size is a bad thing. Ppl have been doing that forever.
Damn, this loss really got injected into your feelings.

Conor wasn't undefeated

You must have meant Holm/Rousey.

Connor is still a champ. The narrative is already that he lost going up too far.

I'm not saying they never face setbacks but they are the promoter and they will position the next one the best way to cash out. The perceived losses aren't big enough for us to ever truly know a difference most of the time.

Didn't change much.......



Nah, this fight really changed a lot for the UFC. Conor kills himself to make 145. He was gonna relinquish the FW belt and fight Lawler at UFC 200 had he won this fight. Now, it's looking like he'll be stuck at FW for a while because he's no contender at LW or WW

Watched this fight but not into UFC. I know Mcgregor was the favorite and is the face of UFC but is Diaz any good?

Watching his interviews he seems pretty retarded :russ:. Mcgregor has humbled down and given dues post-fight:manny:
Diaz brothers would be MONSTERS if they were physical strong...

They can take punches and are always in the fight, but stronger fighters who can also take punches end-up rag dolling them around the octagon...Especially Nate...He is not strong for MMA standards...

Dudes like Khabib and Alvarez will easily take him down and control him, or kick his front leg to smithereens...

Him fighting Lawler was based on what credible reporting?

He still is a contender at 155
