    Crowd being dead is a reflection of one thing alone .....

    They are all there for the Main Event.

    It's been a phenomenal card on paper and in action but if you removed the top match there's no stars. The biggest "star" on the card underneath Conor is actually Miesha Tate if you go by social media presence and tv ratings.

    Whatever about us, could be another 45 minutes before Conor an Eddie make the walk, 1am in NY too long for them to be waiting to fight.

    Agree with you on that, along with the NYC high rollers who show up only in time for the big fight, Conor has a lot of travelling support that just don't really care about other fights. I've seen it first hand over in Vegas and even at the Brandao fight in Dublin to an extent. No slight against them though, the influx of these fans has grown the sport.

    Can't wait to read all the moaning bastards living on the eastern American coast whinging about having to stay up till 1am to watch the main event. :rolleyes:

    I'm expecting Woodley to have a trick up his sleeve here. I'm also expecting a dull 50-45 for Wonderboy when that trick inevitably fails.
