Would you want to see a rematch at 155? Conor vs. Diaz?

Fans keep bringing up the weight difference, even though the majority of us know that Diaz is really a 155lber. I know Diaz would absolutely love to fight Conor again. Why not? It will make him a shit load of money.
 
Conor's in a pickle and his remaining worshippers are possibly in for more mourning. Here's his schedule forecast:
Frankie @ 145
RDA @ 155
Nate @ 155

Conor's got his hands full.

Perfect scenario would be if Diaz could somewhat beat Dos Anjos and they face eachother again after Edgar if Conor wins. That PPV would do record numbers once again.
 
He would get beaten even worse if Diaz had a full camp. People really did seem to forget that Diaz is actually a 155er and not a welterweight like the UFC tried to sell him as.

Conor doesn't deserve a rematch with Nate or a shot at RDA, he needs to go and face the manlets he managed to avoid on his way to the manlet title.
 
No. Conor should already start his reign as FW champ imo

But according to Conor that division is dead.
And they are all midgets.

So what its worth to "reign" FW?

This. Conor has talked so much shit about the division that it makes him look like The King of Manlets. Weird how he has talked so much shit about the division he's champion of and got absolutely dusted off last night by a LW. He's talked himself in to quite a few pickles.
 
No. The guy was finished and he is holding a belt. Defend that belt or vacate it and fight whoever i guess.

Zombies are about to feast on Conor then.
 
I would like to see it, not really because of the weight, just because I still think Conor wins more often than not.

He needed a reality check, you can't just stand in front of guys with your hands down, his ego got the better of him which always seemed to be on the horizon, it came earlier than I thought.
 
i think conor started beliveing his own hype . he got used to predicting how he ends fights so he started throwing the uppercut and 360 round house too many times without timing them because he said that he feels they will land , what he forgot is to use the traditional kicks which he forgot he could have used them to help him get inside his range to box and getting out of his boxing range without letting nate take advantage of the fact that during the process conor will be in nate's boxing range thus to avoid getting hit he should have used any kind of a push-kick.

nonetheless i think as he said he needs a few adjustments and he can be the LW champ . the added weight played its role during this fight he is not used to that ...

about being rocked from nate's 1-2 it would have rocked anyone from 145 to 170 , u can look at robbie lawler agains nick diaz , it is more about the head position in relation to the body than about power , the punches that mendes landed on him had more power to them . the same can be said about the punch that ko'd aldo it didn't have much in it he had been hit harder before ...

I don't think anyone's talking has backfired this bad in any sport, ever. It's pretty crazy how in one night, 90% of the derogatory things he's said in the past have come back to bite him in the butt, literally in 1 fight lol. It's crazy.

You reap what you sow.
 
Think he would have a decent chance at 155 if he approaches things slightly differently. He can beat Nate standing up, but he doesn't need to go in guns blazing for the first full five minutes. Back to precision beats speed and he could well do it.
 
I'd watch, not straight away, but down the line.
