UFC Fight Night: dos Anjos vs Cerrone

CatFromHue · 20-12-2015 05:03AM

A bit of a no show from Cerrone there

I'd say he could get alot of a sports psychiatrist and learning about emotional triggers.

Fair enough that RDA isn't begging for the McGregor payday.

But come on, he is already proving already to be a boring build up.

Would consist of

"He like to talk alot, promote fights, is normal
It will be very bad night for him."

Was it just me or did anyone else find Rogan unbelievably biased and annoying during the Diaz Johnson fight?

I was still up when this was on live filmed by Nick Diaz and the whole time he was trolling the media surrounding Nate and Ariel, doing close ups of the cameramen with one guy even giving him the finger lol--all in good fun though, but man the Diaz bro's are a riot.

I wouldn't be too harsh on Cowboy. I don't like him personally, but for one dos Anjos is excellent and second of all as has been mentioned Cowboy's grandmother who raised him doesn't have long left to live.

Not great preparation for a fight. Some things are more important.

Jds v reem was a horrible fight. JDS looked like a shell of himself. Nate was gas as usual. Very interesting how the ref told him to stop talking during the fight. That was some barage by RDA, I think that will definitely be the next fight for McGregor. Although, Oliveira does make a good case. ....

"Nate Diaz pulled off a surprise victory against Michael Johnson....and claimed that he was the ‘money fight’ for the Irishman. Unfortunately for Diaz however, the prospect of McGregor wanting to fight the Brazilian in the near future seems extremely unlikely"

I think a lot of the criticism is a bit harsh on Cowboy. He got blasted by a kick to the body and he was done, body just shut down.

Just downloaded that and had a watch not knowing the result, good win for RDA but not much of a contest, do we reckon Conor could take RDA, lightweight looks a different ballgame, not saying its not possible but Conor's stature means he is always the bigger man at FW, obv that edge goes away up a weight class.

I have a feeling McGregor would struggle at middleweight tbh.

mdwexford · 20-12-2015 05:17PM

It's 4.5kgs of a jump. The way some people are going on it's like it's 30kgs. Poirier moved up and has been ko'ing people in the first round no problem. Admittedly no one of note so far but still.

Put on a bit more muscle, have a bit of easier cut, grand job.

I'd rather see McGregor Diaz than McGregor RDA.

He said middleweight though, which I assume was a mistake, I was just having a joke about it.

I would too, and it would probably be a good way into lightweight, but one has to assume if he goes up its for a title shot right away no given the noise we have been hearing from Dana?

Yeah I wasn't even directing it at you even though it's under your post. Between here and Facebook some people are going on like he's going to be fighting behemoths if he moves up instead of the tiddlers he's currently knocking out.

I guess it's all about what will sell.
The trash talk between Conor and Nate would be gold.
Pity Nate isn't on a run of a few wins and it would be even easier to sell.

surprised nobody's mentioned ( or maybe I'm wrong) the stark difference in both Junior and overeems bodies. they looked shocking compared to a year or two ago. these lads that are reliant on juicing are getting blitzed.

I personally think RDA's energizer bunny performance against petis was suspect too... It never sat right me me as someone said before compared to his past performances,

good enough for them, I hope all the juicers are found out and drop down the ranks in 13 seconds too ha ha ha ha ha .

JJayoo · 20-12-2015 06:26PM

Diaz vs Conor would be the fight to break records. The Diaz brothers have huge support and both wud be involved in the building up, but I honestly think Conor would give both of them a mental break down with all the trash talk. No way you could have them both in a studio with Conor giving Nate the Aldo treatment.

It would end in a brawl but it would be amazing. It will sell way way way better than RDA, bar the weird ninja **** he was spot on in his interview.

JDS was clearly on some special juices and its disappointing because I liked him, it was very visible in his physical appearance and performance.

RDA was a shifty case seeing he rose out of the blue but he was in epic shape again vs Cerrone and finished it nice and quickly finished it. He went with a new S&C coach which I'd say has helped a lot.

What scares me for Conor is that RDA could do what he did against Pettis to Conor. Conor boxes much better though, which was another weakness for Pettis in that fight.

if i had two wishes it would be (fight picks of course)

mc gregor v ferguson
mc gregor v diaz just for the smack talk

the former would be a little more competitive though imo
diaz would get the same hiding thomson gave him
ferguson must be made of steel...he's a nightmare fight for anyone

Gamebred · 20-12-2015 11:51PM

Ferguson and Diaz is a very good fight to make,not a hope of him subbing diaz or even attempting to take it near the ground,Diaz gets into a boxing match with anybody hes lighting them up in the form hes in now.

CurryFlavoured · 20-12-2015 11:54PM

Ferguson deserves a title shot if Conor doesn't move up and get it.
