Why is anyone picking Nate Diaz over McGregor? Clffs:

[rothnroll]

Nate Diaz will have a gastank as deep as a puddle of cat piss with a 1 week camp.
I like the Diaz Brothers, but Nate isn't championship material. With a 1 week camp, the tools he does have will not work. He simply will not be able to keep up with McGregor's pace.
I am looking forward to the fight, but this was a fight that was put on to save this card.
1 Week camp Nate does not pose a threat to McGregor.

Cliffs: Dat cardio on Nate will be as deep as a puddle of cat piss. War Diaz, War McGregor.

Sorry, who exactly is picking Nate? Conor is the overwhelming favorite, meaning this thread is pure shi*.

I have read several threads where people here are picking Nate for the upset.

 

[coldtruth]

Nate's cardio shouldn't be too bad. By all indications he's been staying in shape.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

I would say the folks picking Nate are about 5,000 to 1 at this point.

 

[Doog Doogson]

I've seen about 3 or 4 Nate videos including the presser since the fight was announced... and I don't think Nate has once said he will win, which seems a bit weird.

 

[helltoupee]

I agree. People confuse the promoter and fighter trying to sell a fight by saying he's in shape are deluding themselves.

 

[HomeRun916]

He's a fun pick. I hope he wins. Not putting money on him.

Conor haters. As is tradition.

I swear Sherdog has become a day care centre as of recently

 

[Xuro]

I blame Rogan.

 

[Th3Sav4ge]

because im his fan

 

[Drunk Bum]

Gonna be funny to see 90% of Sherdog abandon McGregor when he loses.

Just like they did ronda

Haven't seen a ronda thread in like a month

Me also.

 

[Captain_Dammitt]

I'm picking Nate because it's the way mma works. As soon as someone gets god status they get it ripped from them. They've done studies you know, 60% of the time it happens everytime.

 

[Wallop]

Two things I think we can rely on -
Nate won't give up
Conor won't stop pressing.....

 

[FedorFanBoy]

Is he faster? - Yes

His gas tank is better? - No

He got longer camp? - Yes

I think it will be very close fight.


Diaz via decision or tko/sub in round 4.

 

[Fahrenheit1221]

I'm rooting for Nate, doesn't mean I'm picking him to win.

Gonna be funny to see 90% of Sherdog abandon McGregor when he loses.

Any loyal fans like myself have watched him before he joined the UFC so very unlikely. He will retire undefeated in the UFC. Easy
