The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- Cannonier, Imavov, Reyes, Rosas on NOW

[boxer15]

except he hasnt cleaned out the division, he's only beaten 2 people in the top 10

this whole protected champion image has got people brainwashed

Some folks just don't want to want understand.

Thinking Conor can KO legit welterweights while walking through their power shots. The delusion is real.

 

[af1 1982]

Shoot, he got rocked by Nate Diaz who is known as a volume striker. Not a power striker.

No way he can eat shots from Lawler, Woodley, Wonderboy or anyone else in the top 5

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Conor doesn't want to see the Holloway of today... whole different beast

Conor will say he beat him with a torn acl though lol

[joebo21]

how much are these tickets for fight club members?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Aldo's soul really got taken man. Dana ripped it out of him

Reading his comments is honestly depressing me...

 

[jayt1202]

Wow is Jose Aldo really retiring? Guess he just got fed up with all of Dana's recent lies.

Would really be a terrible way for him to go out.

 

[af1 1982]

Dude was your champ for 6 years man. Undefeated for a decade. He EARNED a rematch with Conor by beating Frankie for the interim title.

What more does he have to do man? It's sad

Meanwhile, Conor loses to a middle ranked lightweight at a different weight class and gets an immediate rematch.

Show some damn respect for those that paved the way for guys like Conor

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Classic Nate Diaz reaction

When asked what he thought about the UFC 205 main event, Nate Diaz told MMA Fighting, "**** them both. You know both those little ******* are afraid to fight me. That's why they are fighting each other.

"And tell Dana I said get off Conor's nuts," Diaz added. "I left my room to that fight at 176 (pounds), so when I fought I was probably 173. Quit telling people I was a monster to make him look good. I've been a lightweight my whole career."

Diaz lost his rematch against McGregor via majority decision last month at UFC 202. And while both McGregor and Dias campaigned for a trilogy fight shortly thereafter, it was never on table for UFC 205 on Nov. 12.

"Eddie said I was next after Gilbert, then I called him a ***** in the lobby and he turned the fight down repeatedly until I beat Conor," Diaz said. "Then he called every day asking for the fight. *****. What kinda fighters are these guys?"

Card went from flat to lit

I like how Khabib and Johnson casually got thrown in and will have to be on the prelims along with Frankie.. it's just that stacked

I wish Cowboy let out more venom towards Conor. That's a fight they could build and I'd sure as hell love to watch

In all seriousness I'm just all about being objective. There just seems to be this blind rage when it comes to Conor that just doesn't make sense to me.

I feel for Josie, he's had a legendary career sure but untuck your nuts already. From the horses mouth he'd be ready to fight McGregor on Nov 12 if the matchmakers set that up. But if he had to fight Holloway or Pettis, he'd need a full camp and the match would have to be in December. He's a walking contradiction but no one is going to point that out nor harp on it just cause it's Josie.

what's with this continued delusion? first he cleaned out the division, now there's blind hate towards him?

its because anyone with some sense can see sham that he's being protected by dana as some type of investment

where's nate's rematch?  where's jose's rematch? nope, gotta protect that investment, gotta hatch that escape route

who's jeremy stevens?  probably just another fighter that dana's protecting conor from

So you're "all about being objective" but anyone who isn't in your opinion is fueled by "blind rage"?

OK

Same **** happening in the boxing thread.

It's like you can't have objective conversation about fighters now without it being reduced to "Haters" vs. "Stans".

Conor is clearly a great fighter. But to dismiss whatever "criticism" you feel he's receiving as "blind rage" is laughable.

Especially since it has less to do with him and more to do with how Dana etc. treat him.

 

[QU!K]

I'll be the first to admit Conor got a path easier than most.

But he has definitely made the most of his opportunities.

Is Aldo getting shafted? Yes. But Conor is printing money for the UFC and is calling the shots now. He got Dana in his pocket.

Everyone else on 205 with ppv points happy AF, ask Tyron.

 

[Cashflow]

But I've never dismissed any criticism of McGregor

This place is never really active until McGregor is going to fight and then his naysayers come storming in. He's not a good fighter, he's a sham, etc. Those points are fueled by blind rage because it's discrediting what he has done. He hasn't beaten anyone. "He won but ...." Those are statements that are consistently said in here when McGregor gets brought up.

 

[illphillip]

"Naysayers"
"Blind Rage"



Thread is always active. At least to me as I love the sport.

Maybe you just happen to be more active in it at certain times yourself?

The pendulum swings both ways fam.

 

[P A Z]

The card is ridiculous. I'm excited for November 15th to see what the card really looks like.

I'm predicting 5 fight changes with one of them being a title fight.

I hope I'm wrong though.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Like I said the energy on both sides is amazing when it comes to Conor

Makes the fights pretty special knowing one side is going to be in their feels and to top it off Conor always puts forth a show even in defeat

 

[retroflashbacks]

Man, the prices jump from 250 for p6 to 450 for p5. It was sub 300 for p5 prior to Conor getting announced.

Might have to settle for p6.
