    He looks very depleted.
    He'll probably be 160-165 by the time he fights tomorrow

    Conor looks like Charlie Manson when he puts that deranged face on.

    Looked grey in the face. It must be a horrible horrible cut for him. Anyways, that's the hard part over for him now. Can't wait for tomorrow night!

    Same for the Siver fight.

    I'm always amazed at how much they can cut.

    Sure the face was drawn. But i was surprised how big he looked in the body.

    Mendes is even smaller than i thought. Thats the first time they've been in the same picture, he really is a munchkin

    He looked so drained and foggy. Think he struggled alot to make that weight.

    20 pounds in one day? Some amount of weight to put on in a day, even though a lot would be water weight. As I type he's probably downing the protein shakes.

    Surprisingly reserved. Faber noticeable by his absence on stage, suggesting there was something going on. Fox saying they will show footage shortly.

    Odd that Conor was brought on first too.

    Looked like Mendes got the better of Conor on the stare down.

    Ran over, didn't give Conor the chance for any antics...Conor seemed a little riled up.

    He does look very depleted, his interview with Rogan, he looked tired.


    Again over analyzing all this when it has very little do do with the actual fight

    Pity the 2 couldn't square up. Would have liked to see the exact height difference .

    Mendes is bigger than I imagined from what I could see.

    Your man from the commission was unless. Could constantly hear him asking rogan what weight class they were fighting at

    Conor has the weight cut down to a T. He'll be grand lads.

    Raimondi just tweeted an Irish fan stormed the stage and started doing an Irish Jig :pac:

    Yep Conor looked as grim as ever there. Mini Mendes is raring to go. As and for the thing with Faber???

    I thought by Chad running straight over that he knew they would be separated immediately and he wouldn't have to get in for a proper stare down. Bitch move

    Looked like a tickling match, then Faber got dem feels and didn't want to let go.
