its a stacked card, really looking forward to it, gonna go Connor by decision think he'll win the first 3 rounds which will be enough, Joe Rogan made a great point in the first fight which i wholeheartedly agree with, which is its great to see fighters fighting at their actual weight rather than a false weight through unhealthy dehydration, i hope it sets a tone tbh

If it goes to ground at any point Diaz will summit McGregor. Cut through him like butter last time.

Rogan's commentary when Diaz takes Conor out gives me chills every time
----------------------------------------------------------------------

yup, id say Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan are the best commentary team in sports atm tbh

I agree about the rehydration to a certain extent. Conor isn't a natural 170lber but Nate is. The attraction to big guys fighting smaller guys will always be there. However ridiculous weight cuts should be banned. They should have a weigh in 5 days to make sure they are within a certain limit. Most of the UFC weight cuts are done last minute and guys are killing themselves to make absurd weights.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

yup, Miesha Tate the day before her weigh in for the Nunes fight was 11lbs heavier than the limit

Conor is a natural lightweight really

Yep, Conor's ideal weight would be 155lbs however I think he is better at 145lbs. He has such a size and reach advantage at 145 and his power is amplified which means he can take guys out with ease.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

well obviously, because 'whisper it quietly' he's not actually THAT good, he's just a lot bigger than the other 145lb ers

Don't see what Connor can do that much differently in this fight tbh. Diaz is still going to have the size and weight advantage being the naturally bigger guy.

It's all on Connor to stop Diaz controlling the range with his jabs and superior range as well as making sure he doesn't get taken down to the ground where Diaz controls the fight. That's a big ask.

I'd like to see Connor win this and he's brave for taking this rematch, probably too brave for his own good. Diaz by submission again.

diaz better not try to box. Dude looked sloppy last time. If he takes McGoogoo down it will be all over for sure. He pwned Conor on the mat and would do it again

Whoa....something we can agree on.

Goldberg is thE worst. Rogan is acceptable. Dana white shouldn't ever be allowed a microphone. He is set at 10 on volume forever.
