You could be right. At -500 not even playable imo. Don't really think Nate can win but no point paying that much juice.

I can see Nate winning. Don't know why but I really do lol. His striking is great and if he can get it on the ground Conor better watch his neck. We could see Nate tag Conor and keep talking shit, who knows what happens then

Nate does overextend a lot though

I would be way more excited for that than rda lol. Don't think I could be a Conor fan if he won.. First aldo then potentially Nate. Id hold a grudge lol

would you bet nate +1000?

Hell. Yes.

+450 or better I'd take a little flyer. At +1000 I'd be in "bad bankroll management" territory LOL
 
Goddammit were back to Cerrone as front runner....

EDIT nvm thats what I get for reading a UFC discussion thread without looking further into it.

limit was 33 euro on nate and 12euro on pettis
 
We are always told how amazing the cardio of the Diaz bros is. Would think the short notice would not have a huge effect on him.

I'm guessing McGregor will be in the -425-475 range. At those odds I will def be on Nate. My main concern is the difference in power between these guys. It is a huge difference. Although Nate does have a great chin, and definately does have paths to victory.

This is an incredibly intriguing fight to me. If only for the mental part of it. We are so used to seeing Conor be the bully in and out of the ring. Will be fascinating to watch that dynamic play out. In the ring it will be so interesting to see how Connor reacts to Nate's constant pressure and antics/taunts and vice versa.

Still disappointed RDA had to pull out but I am actually really looking forward to this.
 
Still not getting why Ferg not in the mix here...
 
I REALLY want it to be Diaz that steps in. That is a dream matchup for me. That would honestly be one of my most anticipated fights ever.
 
I want Ferg for betting reasons as I think I'd be getting a pick 'em at like +250 or better but I won't complain about Nate either. The shit talking alone will be worth it.
 
I wasn't saying Nate would be +1000.. Just that there has to be a point you'd look aT line
 
i originally put down £30 on cerrone thinking he was certain to get it, the minute i saw Diaz talks coming i put £25 (limit) on him to cover myself
 
All this talk now of weight being an issue, UFC wanting a 155 lb fight. If thats the case and Diaz/Cerrone can't get there, I don't get why they don't bring in Ferg.
 
With the exception of the Thompson fight, most of Nate's losses came the way via grapplers who grinded him out. Obviously that's not Connor's MO, so this could get pretty interesting. Ferguson is also an awesome fight. Basically I want someone who isn't gonna be afraid to bring it to Connor, both in and outside the octagon.

"Where's your son Conor?" won't work though. I'm sure Ferg would come up with something to keep it interesting.
 
4 to 1 and I am biting for at least 1u on Diaz.
