ufc screwed up making Diaz mcgregor fight at 170

[shorush87]

Seriously mcgregor said so himself that the bigger man won
Meaning this time around he's gonna try to bulk up more and make it an even fight (which I think doesn't matter because I think Diaz is a natural 55er and wasn't much bigger than mcgregor on fight night, just taller)
My main concern is Dana said win lose or draw his next fight will be defending his title. Mcgregor already has a rough time making weight...unquestionably will have a much more difficult time losing the extra weight that he WILL put on for the Diaz fight...I'll bump this when a unsuspecting "injury" occur to mcgregor winner of Edgar aldo for the fw title fight to give mcgregor extra time to slim down

you're a bit crazy if you think conor is actually going to fight at 145 ever again

New thread for this shit?

That's because he's gonna see if Edgar wins first. Should Edgar win, expect McGiveup to give up his belt and move to LW.

Agreed. They both have time to make 155. Conor, God love him, has too big an ego to admit he isn't at his best at 170. How does Diaz benefit from this fight, other than financially. If he wins, well, he beat the same FW again, two weight classes above. If he loses, he lost to a FW. No way this fight is as good as the first. What rematch is, really?

This fight is awesome. I'm more than pumped for this fight. I hope Conor wins

Wanderlei vs Rampage 2 was better than the first. And the first fight was awesome!

Good call. But the third was disappointing.

Matt Hughes vs Frank Trigg 2
Wanderlei vs Rampage 2
Edgar vs Maynard 2 and 3
Lidell vs Couture 2 and 3
Etc...

Boxing is filled with great rematches as well.

There was no third fight. ...

Wanderlei never went to the UFC after PRIDE. Just some weirdo with an obviously plastic surgery ed face who pretended to be Wanderlei. .....

I don't remember Hughes vs Trigg 1...but # 2 was one of the most awesome comebacks in mma.
