      Holy. F*cking. Sh*t.

      You saw it coming about a minute before it happened. What was mcgregor thinking going for the takedown?!!!

      Pure desperation, was getting the sh*te kicked out of him on his feet and on the ground.

      He was getting taken apart standing up so he had to try something, very sloppy takedown though

      Massive fan of Conner, but I'm absolutely delighted for Nate. If anyone deserves to get this win its him!

      Relying on you guys for updates. Did McGregor get caught on his way in for a takedown?

      Conor is still an absolute phenomenon, but we just saw what happens when you take away his size advantage.

      Only reason he went for a takedown was because he was out on his feet.

      With each fight (excluding Aldo for obvious reasons) McGregor seems to increase his showboating at the expense of covering up and just making good decisions.

      It's still a big surprise, but it was only a matter of time before McGregor took a big shot like that because of his own pageantry.

      I thought he would have backed up and ran away before he'd go for the takedown.

      I'm not even disappointed, thought I would be but mcgregor is a very good loser.

      Yeah, he landed absolutely bombs but Diaz held on. Down to 155 in the future do we reckon?

      His legs were wobbling so he needed to take it to the ground and try to survive the round.

      Respect, Diaz only had 11 days to prep.

      Conor left his hands low and you could see it happening
