    Not true at all but you'll see what you want to see.

    Dare I say it the first time Aldo appeared to come out on top of a public engagement?

    Just had a quick look at the Mendes weigh in. Conor looks much better this time. He's still fierce gaunt but seems healthier than the last fight

    I disagree, as someone said he looked more energetic this time.

    Jose just made conor his b1tch this time and conor knows it.

    See a big shift in odds in bookies after that weigh in, didn't even look like conor or sound like him

    spot on

    i thought he looked more lively and happy

    Agree he looked slightly better than last time but he wasn't always so bad at weigh ins i think it happened after his injury,pre injury he looked pretty good at weigh ins,but with the lay off and rehabbing the injury he probably built extra muscle which it made it harder to make the 145 weight he could make easier beforehand.
    So what could he do he had made his name in the 145 division so he had to push ahead towards that belt.

    I thought Conor looked like a junkie, but that's to be expected.

    He looked a lot worse at the 189 weigh in.

    His mental strength to do the cut is something else.

    Mocked his outrageous Karate(?) style pose from that last stand off. Coming from such a serious guy like Jose it was very funny, one of the best weigh in moments I've seen.

    Yeah his face was obviously still gaunt and didn't look like himself but he looked far more frail and fcuked at the Mendes weigh in.

    Couldn't be more excited for tomorrow.

    I'm not sure if this is the first Conor fight a lot of people are tuning in for or what, but Conor actually looked slightly better than he has in past weigh-ins. He always looks like ****e because the cut is horrific for him. He still didn't look as bad as he did vs Mendes or Siver.

    looks good compared to the last one, his body looks fine, face looks a bit fat, but hey we are used to fat faces in Ireland. He is gonna stiffin Aldo

    Absolutely nothing noteworthy, just Dave clutching at straws to try to pretend Conor loses even the tiniest of battles. Nothing new.

    From previous weight ins. McGregor looks awful in all his weigh ins so it's nothing new. However, these extreme weight drains will catch up with him at some point.

    He wont be doing them for that much longer, he will move up after a fight with Edgar assuming he and Frankie both win.

    It's just water weight! If you kept doing it you'd die from dehydration! What Conor does is really unsafe, a fighter died recently cutting for a weigh in.

    I think there's a good chance Conor moves up after this fight regardless of the outcome.

    All to do with water, that's why they look like they've been stuck on an island without any! Once they start getting it back into the system they'll start filling out again

    I think this will be his last fight at the weight, regardless of the outcome of his or the Edgar fight. The only reason he's stuck around was for this monster fight with Aldo imo.
