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

So you’d rather see Conor get dominated on the ground again. Not to say he doesn’t have an opportunity to land one of those precise and accurate lefts. I just think his chances are low.

Meanwhile GSP has that jab that locks his opponent down. And then he tries to integrate that grappling. And that’s where the intrigue is in that matchup. Plus George is larger.

At the end of the day, Khabib probably done.

Really believe the Max v Kattar fight is going to be a candidate for FOTY. Kattar's camp really flourishing they just seem to be hitting the right buttons right now

Kattar is as gritty as Max is. They're just going to go punch for punch and CTE for CTE. Max would be smart to make it an MMA match instead of straight boxing

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Good, no point in going down to 125 to fight smaller guys. Stay in your own damb weight class

 

[spiderjericho]

That fight will always be there. He beats Also his star rises even more. It’s risk/reward. But he’ll get a title shot. Him and Sandhagen are in a race to fight washed featherweights.

If max can drag kattar to 4 and 5 I favor max, if kattar get that respect early in the fight, it’s gonna be dynamite the whole way.

I know Max does not want to drop 3 in a row.

Condit x matt brown should be a good treat too, condit looked pretty good last time...good match up for both right now

ponzinibio byke too

hawaiian soriano fighting on the maincard too

Hooker says Eugene won’t be able to corner him

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Hmm

Bareman is sick of those 2 week quarenteens. I heard him say they are taking a toll on him. I can understand especially with a new born at home.

I never wish Ill on no man but I will admit I have been patiently waiting for ponzinibio to get his block knocked off ever since I saw him clawing at Gunner Nelson's eyes before finishing him. That has got to be top three dirtiest fighters I have ever seen in any form of combat. That **** was top level foulness.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

This is just bizarre to think about

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

The last time he bulked up he looked awful against OSP. Stiff, slow and just weird. Granted that was at 205 but still, I hope he isn't losing his positive attributes like flexibility, agility that allows him to be so creative on his feet

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Hmm

Dana said it wasn't Tony but that fans would like it...

Dana also says he expects Conor and Khabib to not cross paths but it's a small island and anything can happen

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Kattar explaining his days training with the Diaz brothers was hilarious, he was only 19 at the time. Never knew he went out to Cali back in the day

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Ariel predicts Nate Diaz will fight twice this year, he lists Oliveria, Gaethje or Hooker if he beats Chandler as options

 

[atransta]

Nice, will def tune in for Aldo vs cody. Backing the king of Rio of course

“How you could walk away at this stage is baffling to me but to each to their own,” McGregor told the The Mac Life when speaking about Nurmagomedov’s decision to call it a career. “There’s so many amazing fights out there. Even the carry-on around the Tony [Ferguson] situation, like I don’t care about nothing. You’re scheduled to fight a man. No matter what. Fights must take place. You can’t just scurry away from bouts.


“It’s been the hallmark of his approach. I was not surprised to see him walk away or scurry away, I should say. It is what it is. We carry on.”

 

[Fong$tarr]

Haven't heard it yet but hopefully it is a good interviews.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Just watched the conor interview, he’s off the coke for now for sure. He sounds very present and being respectful to dustin

He even admitted their first fight that the trash talk wasn’t personal and was for the show

No one can dispute that sober McGregor is a pleasent interview every single time. Charisma threw the roof.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Conor brought up an interesting point, since the fight will be Sunday morning they’ll have 2 sleeps instead of 1. Extra Rehydration

 

[SORIANOTRON]

Who beats conor at 55?

 

[Cashflow]

Who beats conor at 55?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Dustin will be the barometer. I don’t think you can get a read on current conor since he’s been out so long, I don’t count the cowboy fight at all

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Wow conor said ghallgher is now training with James Krause. That’s good for him
