    If Mendes is keeping fit in case Aldo gets injured (We're told this is normal) What would happen if Connor got injured? Does Aldo fight Mendes again or is it call off? I know this isn't likely to happen, just out of interest.

    Nothing. A bit of Ibruprofen, a bit of toughen the fúck up.

    Be grand.

    Jaysus what? Although very unlikely, it's a valid question. We're told it's normal to have a fighter on standby, so im wondering would the same fighter cover both men.

    If Conor can't fight it gets called off as Aldo isn't going to fight Mendes with a messed rib as the buyrate without McGregor would tank, hence not worth it.

    As Aldo hasn't trained (or so we're led to believe) for a good few days now, how will this affect his weight cut?

    Said this to my mates during the week, strong possibility he misses weight imo, he cuts an awful lot of weight like Conor does and one slip up can be costly. Hope he doesnt though.

    So he gets cleared to fight and fails to make weight, Conor wins and doesn't get the belt, thats crap

    If he fails to make weight but Conor does the belt is still on the line for Conor anyway.

    Good man Weidman, but its not the first Brazilian Conor will slay in the UFC, Brandao's head is already on his mantlepiece at home.

    Jeez! Weidman is 3 weight classes above McGregor and is considered big for the weight too. Doesn't look like that in this picture!

    Locking this thread now as there's a lot of cross-posting between the different McGregor/Aldo threads and it's just a bit confusing.
    Try to keep all discussion about UFC 189 in the official event thread and keep any other chit-chat, rumours/speculation to the McGregor thread.
    Thanks.
