    The coke allegations are disappointing but not at all surprising.

    Can we stop talking about coke ffs? There is absolutely zero evidence of anything like that to have happened and to talk about it is slander IMO

    Yeah maybe so I think the cut has him sick of it,but for the right money and he loves money,he could make the cut down.

    He really does call the shots doesn't he. Madness going back to 170.

    Seems weird that it's going to be at 170 again. Should be at 155.

    Actually think Conor could win a 3 round fight between the two by decision. As long as he fights smarter and paces himself a bit. Would be more confident at 155 though.

    It won't be 3 rounds

    A rematch of a bout without title implications, UFC 200 headliner bizarre. An Edgar fight would peak my interests more sad to see him being sh1t on again.

    Will there not be at least 2 title fights at 200 though?

    Yeah find it difficult to believe a Diaz rematch would headline over 1-2 men's title fights. If this happens he surely has to vacate FW belt,have a feeling he is done with that cut

    Sorry meant 3 rounds,



    To ensure he has the best possible chance of not gassing it will be 3rds imo,Conor needs to be minded from himself fighting at 170 is idiotic.

    I think a 3 round fight suits Conor much better tbh.

    I'd say he prefers the 13 second ones.

    Thats a very underwhelming card for UFC 200 if the rumours are true.

    Conor vs Diaz main
    Cain vs Browne
    Mousasi vs Brunson

    I'd be surprised if he's not headlining. If he is, then it's five rounds.

    Helwani is reporting that it's main event. I agree with you completely though. It shouldn't be main. But nothing would surprise me when it comes to Conor.

    Anyone's missus could strangle them if in the right position.... they couldn't tho beat your head to a bloody pulp and leave you looking like you been in a bad car crash


    Apologies to anyone who's missus could do all of the above (and sympathies)

    What an absolute joke.

    Aldo - McGregor for the interim belt please.

    Dana White is a bollix.

    Let me guess,you're in the ''he was winning the fight'' camp?




    The Diaz bro's have scar tissue all over their face they cut up easy,he was in no danger at any stage he walked through everything Conor threw and whooped him.

    Fighting Nate at 170 makes zero sense. An in shape, primed Nate knowing he's fighting at 170 is not a good fight for Conor.

    McGregor used to take the piss out of Aldo and how he didn't defend the belt that often.

    Falling into his own trap here. Its also very risky to go after Diaz again, a double loss on the bounce would be quite bad for him.
