UFC 202 McGregor vs Diaz 2

tattooelement · 08-19-2016, 07:30 PM

So, who's looking forward to this one?

I think McGregor wins this time.

Looking forward to Rumble's fight as well. Think he will KO Glover in the 1st.

CC_123 · 08-19-2016, 08:32 PM

Im hoping that Diaz knocks McGregor out this time. Ive been a big Diaz fan for a very long time. I used to like Conor but honestly, while he does say some funny and entertaining stuff, he has grown a little stale on me. He is coming off a loss to Diaz and he is acting like he won that last one. Diaz is already in McGregors head which makes me think Diaz wins again

jbrandonw · 08-19-2016, 08:47 PM

Should be a decent card. A lot of up and comers fighting. I want Diaz to win. I was beginning to believe McGregor would win this time until I saw how easily Nate got him riled up. He's clearly in his head, so I say nate will win in the 3rd.

cowboyzqna · 08-19-2016, 09:06 PM

Looking foward to it. Said I wouldn't pay for it but I changed my mind. Nate late in the second or early in the third via strikes.

Connor can't run for 25 minutes... no amount of training is going to make 7 minutes turn into 25 minutes. If Nate makes it through of the first three minutes... Connor is toast.

Should be a fun card.

If Connor loses to Nate, UFC cannot get GSP/Jones back fast enough.

The Jones thing is crazy. Their saying he didn't take what he originally failed for twice? So basically usada cost him about 10 million.

I think the gsp thing will be about like the Brock return. One big fight. Id like it to be Nate or Nick.

GSP loves gold, I think he comes back for a title. They can have him fight me, and in Canda I'll fill 80,000 seats.LOL

I get what you're saying.

I don't think Diaz is in his head though.

This version of McGregor, driven/motivated to prove he is the best, reminds me of the Aldo fight.

He was too confident/cocky the last fight. Obviously, he is taking it seriously this time around.

mma138 · 08-19-2016, 11:22 PM

I sooooooooooo hope he gets choked out again

glen87 · 08-19-2016, 11:31 PM

there are quite a few tickets left for this, prices were even cut earlier.

I saw that.

Apparently UFC pulled a Topps move. They were selling tickets for what resellers typically sell them for. Thus, resellers didn't buy them, and they were stuck with excess tickets.

I partially agree with you. I think Diaz was in McGregor's head along with all the "Hollywood" bs lifestyle Conner was living. Hopefully he's snapped out of it and gets his confidence/focus back.

I do agree with poster above with his act getting a bit stale. He needs a big time fight to show he's got heart.

He lost but acted like it was because of other things. It's like a self entitled elitist who gets beat by the trash man and is so devastated wonders how he got beat then makes excuses to a degree contemplates suicide. Wait think someone already pulled that card? lol

I like Diaz.. crazy dude. this could go either way in my mind.

oldgoldy97 · 08-20-2016, 10:50 AM

I think Diaz wins in the third.

Nate is a nightmare matchup for Conor...

The only way I can see Conor able to beat Nate is using a Mayweather approach to the fight. He needs to really be on his horse bobbing and moving and try to make it a points fight. Nate is just bigger and can take Conor's punches so if he engages Nate in a slugfest again most likely your going to see the same outcome from the first fight.

AOClubs · 08-20-2016, 08:53 PM

Cody Garbrandt is impressive but he won't touch Dominick Cruz

Dolphan44 · 08-20-2016, 08:56 PM

I really like Garbrandt. I don't think he's well rounded enough but Id love to see him knock out Cruz.

Prospectorsadvantage · 08-20-2016, 09:00 PM

Let's go Mcgregor.

Nate Diaz is a clown.

VeedonFleece · 08-20-2016, 09:26 PM

Let's go Diaz.

Conor McGregor is a clown.

(Mimicry aside, I've had a bet on Diaz, and to win by submission again. Would never dismiss any fighter out of hand, especially one of McGregor's ability, but I don't see how he avenges the loss tbh.)

stream it, bro. i use vipbox.tv

anyway, i forgot about this PPV so I missed everything up until the Cerrone fight that just started. Cerrone looking good through 1.

Story looks out of it.

Clarka3 · 08-20-2016, 10:13 PM

annnnd down goes Story. Cerrone dominated the entire fight aside from the one moment where he got taken down.

Cowboy is so good but never quite good enough. The Uriah Faber of 155
