I don't know about everyone else but I'm not expecting anything SPECTACULAR sound-byte wise from this Press Conference, the beef between Ortega and Volk seems mostly manufactured that any back and fourth between them might sound forced and cringe inducing. Nick Diaz will likely get cheered regardless of WHAT he says as he's a fan favorite, but as for the rest of the Fighters in this Press Conference, they're not particularly engaging with a Microphone.
I love Valentina, but she probably isn't gonna say anything she hasn't said before "I'm Ready for zis fight" etc etc, and I doubt Lauren Murphy is gonna have any zingers of her own.
Diaz doesn't need to engage an opponent to be entertaining. Just give him a mic and he's fun to watch.Nick diaz alone makes it worth a watch. But robbie being on the other side with his now monk like persona, it probably will be pretty laid back.
That's fine too, i don't want to see any mcgregor like histrionics.

I’m not even sure what to chalk it up to.. Too much weed, CTE, just general uncomfortableness in the situation, or some kind of learning disability?? I just don’t know. But, he sure can’t get the words out. Awkward is right.Díaz is just so uncomfortable doing this stuff. He just hates it. He has quite a lot of difficulty just saying what he wants to say - gets halfway thru a sentence and just kinda grinds to a halt. That was awkward.
