    He's usually quite alright at these things. He's on with Joey Diaz later so I'm guessing Diaz gave him a pot cookie from his stash.

    Rule number 1: Never eat anything Joey Diaz gives you :D

    From that small clip, Conor doesn't look quite as ghostly as he has at other weigh-ins. Will be interesting to see him up closer.

    Fighters miss weight from time to time, but we are talking a small amount so they give the fighter is given an hour to lose it. If they dont they get fined 20% of the show money (which is given to the opponent) and they make some sort of arrangement on what weight they will actually fight at. If its a title fight though then it usually becomes a non title fight though as a result. Normally its the non title fights that end up having guys not on weight due to a bad camp or an injury stopping them preparing properly, although you have the odd guy like Kevin Gastulem who was just ridiculous, he came in once 9 pounds over.

    Ah, so you'll be giving him the win even if he's on the ground getting pounded for 5 rounds.

    Down to TUF I'd say, he came off great in it. Was the makings of a bromance between himself and Conor!

    Great to see Faber get a good reception, seemed like a genuinely nice guy on TUF.

    Found it hard not to like Faber during the ultimate fighter. Guy carries himself well and is a very good fighter. Used to think he was a douche but I have been proven wrong.

    TUF and the banter with McGregor I'd say. Plus he's a legend, seems like a proper nice guy.

    I can't wait for this, i'm in the nice position of not caring who wins, i don't like McGregor personally and it would be funny to see the hype train derail. at the same time it's nice to see an Irish lad do well, i respect how far McGergor has gone and don't begrudge him his success even if i dislike him if he wins fair play to him. Just hoping for a great fight and may the best man win.

    1fight I get it wrong and this is the **** I get??? There were so few punches thrown in that fight it was difficult to judge rounds. I don't know how mma is scored and won't attempt to
