Well that is blue balls. On the plus side, I look forward to Conor annihilating him with mind games for a few months now... a la Aldo

Sounds like Nate got the fight.

Diaz confirmed. He hasn't got the power to knock him out and won't out box McGregor for five rounds off a two week camp no matter how fit he keeps himself. Diaz's only chance is by submission I reckon.

But Jesus Christ, there'll be some shenanigans.

Yep. But not a power advantage.

Yep. But not a power advantage.

Gonna be mental, no way he knocks Diaz out early, they're both gonna be coming forward and the ref's more likely to go for a takedown than any of these 2.

I reckon he might you know. One thing's for certain there's no way McGregor gets in his head like he got in Aldo's. If I was Nate's coach I'd be telling him to pull guard and try to throw up a triangle.

Weigh ins will be interesting if Nick's around.

Well slap me silly hahahaha - i honestly expected McGregor to jib it all, but he lad loves a fight. Reckon Nates "he'll have to get on his knees and beg" tweet helped tip him over hahaha.

This is risky i won't lie for McGregor, its a massive risk.

Personally think, won't go past the first round, Nate is decent with his standup - Nates best chance is a submission i reckon hell try and get him down as fast as possible.

Whens the Weigh ins? can't wait to hear McGregor to say "Don't be scared Homie" lollollollollol

I think the fight being at WW could show what kind of shape Diaz is in at the minute, as they must not think he can get down to 55. Should be a good scrap, hopefully Conor KO's him at some point and the RDA fight is back on.

I think the size factor means Diaz wins

Klondyke Kate would sort them out !!

Same. Making sure I'm watching it live in case the UFC do an illuminati and edit it before release.
