so when is conor gonna actually defend a belt? All this Conor shyt seems so forced even though you gotta give it up to him he has skills. Nate would probably win a 3rd fight
My big gripe with UFC is its hard to get too excited for a fight because you know it's gonna be at least 6 months before they do it, sometimes years

Chad Mendes tagged him with over hand rights, he was a midget though
he improved a lot since the Mendes fight, I think that's undeniable.

also conor was out boxed by Nate Diaz, and Nate Diaz has no take downs
He was outboxed in the clinch that's it, he outboxed Nate otherwise.
Anderson Silva had the type of defense you are talking about lmao, conor has none of those skills you mentioned
Anderson had the type of defense that made his opponents get careless, look where that got him against someone focused like Weidman.

If you don't think Conor has any of the skills I mentioned, we have to be watching different fights, or you're not paying enough attention.
Woodley just needs to take conor down once and the fight is over
Eddie had to do the exact same, nothing else to add.

After Historic Win, Conor McGregor Wants Stake in UFC
"Who owns the company now? People have shares. Celebrities. Conan O'Brien owns the UFC now. Where's my share? Where's my equity? I'm the one that's bringing this. They've got to come talk to me now. I've got both belts, family on the way. If you want me to stick around, if you want me to keep doing (this), let's talk. But I want the ownership now. I want the equal share. I want what I deserve, what I've earned."
:ehh:he on his Jay Z, owning his masters

I actually agree with Conor...

It's time at least one of the fighters tries to flex some muscle in MMA.

Let's see if Dana has created a monster. :youngsabo:
I wonder how many fights he owes them. Must be a long time otherwise he wouldnt be making a big deal. If he could get out soon he could promote his own shows like Floyd

^^^^GSP should've been doing that....these MMA dudes gotta start being bold.

Fights I wanna see based on 205:

Conor-Nate 3 for the belt
Woodley - Thompson 2 for the belt
JJ - Andrade for the belt
Yoel - Bisping for the belt
Cucuy - Khabib for the no.1 spot
Rocky vs. Germaine derandamie...whatever her name is....:lolbron:

conor-nate 3 is great for biz but that is really a slap in the face to ferguson. people cry about khabib being next but tony is due up next. he just isn't vocal like khabib. nate shouldn't get a title shot over those 2 but most likely it will happen :snoop:

why on earth would Nate get a title shot? do people really want to see a trilogy? he has been a hit & miss fighter for years now with some great performances but he's never been in the championship mix too often. if it wasn't for Conor taking that fight at welterweight and creating this rivalry then Nate wouldn't be mentioned in belt talks.

Woodley/Thompson is a no brainer considering how close it was.

Yoel/Bisping is the obvious choice but that sucks for Jacare

Cucuy/Khabib is probably the right thing to do even tho i think Ferguson deserves the title shot more than Khabib right now, even with his record.

I think Nate vs kabib is the fight to make.

Both came out of a long break and beat MJ at 155.

It wasn't nates fault he fought Conor on 2 weeks notice and won .

:yeshrug:.

Nate could of easily had a title shot at 155 by now.

So yea .

Kabib vs Nate next.

Nate ain't done shyt to deserve a title shot. UFC on that bullshyt if he gets a chance.

UFC has been on the bulllshyt since Conor beat Aldo, breh......why stop now?:yeshrug:

Truth is...Nate is top 5 @ lw....is the only man to beat Conor in the UFC....and he's BETTER @ lightweight than welterweight....

We got chinless 45 yr. olds that were ranked 14th in the division getting title fights just b/c they beat guys 100 UFCs ago....and said chinless 45 yr. old arguably won that fight :wow:


Brehs would have that fight as a pick em....and you know it. No less than a million buys....and you know it.

Conor wont be back until May...that gives him 2 months to get ready for Conor-Nate 3 on Independence Day weekend...Tony and Khabib can headline a FOX card in the spring to determine the no.1 contender...they probably need the money and definitely need the exposure anyway.
