Fuck forum rules, and fuck this card.

McGregor is a gimmick and it was fun watching him clock over stimulated little weights but at his natural weight he's just a chucker. Unless they paid Diaz to dive I except another brutal education. I'm not watching this crap

I wouldn't pay good money to see it; but I am interested in who wins. I'd like to say Diaz is more humble; but really he's just fucking autistic and can't talk real trash. McGregor; not saying I'm a fan; but I'd like to see him back up his sh** this time.

There's no reason to think this fight isn't fixed for McGregor to win so that the fighters and UFC can cash in on a rubber match. Everything leading up to this fight has been staged; the press conference fight, the weigh in fight, etc. It's all been a joke. If it weren't all staged, I wish McGregor would die in the cage, for real. I don't understand how anyone could be a fan of him. He's an overhyped UFC marketing product. If he wins, UFC wins. I hope Diaz breaks script and kills him.

Hispanics seem to be the largest demographic by race if I'm reading this right:

I think if the first fight was rigged to spike Hispanic interest, then it'd make sense for the second to be rigged to keep overall interest rising. But otherwise, I'd say it was in UFC's interest for McGregor to win the first match. He's basically the best promoter in the sport.

The first fight wasn't fixed. The UFC actually thought McGregor was something special and he would have no problem beating Diaz. Now they know that he's just a hype machine and they need to protect their investment.

He has 10 losses. They were never going to choose him as the face of Bean Country. McGregor was supposed to stomp him in the first fight with no issues. Their plan backfired. Now, they need McGregor to win this fight. Like I said, I hope Diaz ends his life tonight, but it won't happen.

McGregor is tailor made for the casual fan. Sorry, HH, you're better than that. Take your basketball IQ and imagine transferring it to UFC. McGregor is the equivalent of casual NBA fans who think 90s ball could compete with today's NBA.

I've been saying the UFC is headed into WWE territory for a while now. Tonight only confirmed that. Fanboi's will say Conor won rounds 1, 2, and 4...but Diaz controlled the fight from the middle of round 2 on. Conor was running from him and Conor won. UFC, ladies and gentlemen.

Didn't watch but in looking at comments it seemed like Connor busted Nate up way worse than Nate did to Connor.

Also reading that Connor broke his foot from kicking Nate so much so had to be strategic?

Both Diaz brothers bleed easily due to excessive scar tissue. There's a good chance Conor broke his foot when Nate started checking the kicks.

Nate got knocked down a couple of times in the first but all but one of those looked like he was rope a doping him into pouncing on top of him on the ground. Nate was never hurt badly.

Most of it came in the first round. He connected a few times but spent most of the fight running from him. When he wasn't running he was eating punches or getting pressured by Nate against the cage. At one point he was running from Nate and Nate was flipping him off.:lol

Nate even scored a takedown in the fifth that really should have put a nail in the coffin.

But you can tell a dumbass with their "nate should have won" comment. Diaz was busted and got dominated save for the last 2 minutes of two rounds.

Even the 5th round irish boy delivered the cleanest punches.

the most accurate description right here. I thought I was the only one that noticed Diaz faked the second fall in the second round to get Conor on the ground.

Gaymond showed up in one game when there was ZERO pressure on him since he had already hit rock bottom. At the end of the day, he made Softridge's bitch (Ibaka) seem like a perennial All-Star.:lol

Even if Conor won more rounds in the significant strikes(round two and four both very close), Diaz repeatedly put him against the fence and was the aggressor from the middle of the second through the end of the fight.

So, Conor should lose cos he played by the rules? Scoring starts anew each round. All judges had him winning Rds 1,2 and 4. The only reason the decision wasn't unanimous is a judge gave him a point deduction for something.
