    I wouldn't bother with anyone who tried to say either the Rousey fight, or the Aldo fight was fixed. Not worth the time tbh

    The fix thing is such nonsense. Like aside from everything else if you were gonna fix it surely you'd want to make it as least obvious as possible and drag it out for a minute or two

    Imbeciles clutching at straws. Fell sorry for Aldo, he was a beast but this is McGregor's time. Incredible.

    Exactly. Firstly you'd have to pay Aldo a millionaire a fortune to agree to lose it, as not only does a loss seriously hurt his value as a fighter hugely,why on earth would he not drag it out a little even if he had agreed to lose it in round one?

    Aldo isn't stupid, if he agreed to lose it so quickly, he would know well he would have to listen to Mc Gregor taunt him about "13 seconds" until the re match a year down the line. That would be hell for him and his value as a fighter.

    Also Aldo went off as favourite in Las Vegas,, if a fix was going down and their would have to be serious money involved for it to happen that market would know.


    I don't mind people saying it is fixed if they have some sort of proof e.g betting prices movement, but if you don't have anything like that and it is just your "opinion" then I don't want to know.

    I wouldn't call them experts. Just people who are capable of having a reasonable discussion......The key word being reasonable.

    Completely true, it came out via Wikileaks that the UFC had secretly hired Vince McMahon to script the fight.

    Slow down there, I didn't say it was fixed just a few people had said it to me, that's why I asked the question, I'd find it hard to believe tbh.

    I disagree. I've read the posts and the conversations and I know who comes off sounding like an ass and it's not the "experts" as you put it.

    You has a difference of opinion with some posters. Whereas most people would forget about it and move on, you remembered it and went as far as to dig up your old predictions.

    From a discussion a number of months ago. That is weird.

    The people you've called out, I have personally found very informative and generally sound. Dragging up old posts like that and rubbing it in is playground stuff.

    I don't think they do. I just think the way you express your views doesn't lend itself to reasonable discussion.

    How so? i gave my opinion and my thinking behind how mcgregor would win, they replied with "i forgot you dont have a ****ing clue, you re a troll ect ect.."

    Yet how i express my views doesnt lead to reasonable discussions...right yeah...

    Aldo the BJJ fighter can beat Conor.
    Aldo the aggressive striker is open to being beaten standing.

    It comes down to whether or not he fights smart, or whether he lets ego and emotion get involved. Andre Pederneiras would favour the latter I think,

    I know Aldo has had a lot of 25mins fights, and Conor a lot of 1st round wins. But I would have though he's have at least 60-75 mins by now.
    Aldo has a lot of mileage tbf.
