February 29, 201610 yr The trash talking before this one between Diaz and McGregor will probably be better than the fight. McGregor wins in the first most likely.
March 1, 201610 yr The trash talking before this one between Diaz and McGregor will probably be better than the fight. McGregor wins in the first most likely. McGregor is really fun to listen to in a press conference. That said I hope he puts Diaz through the mat. Can't stand either Diaz. Dana can't be real happy about Diaz calling out all UFC fighters for doping.
March 4, 201610 yr Diaz might be the most hated fighter in the game. I would like to see a 3 round beat down of that dude. McGregor is changing the game in front of our eyes. Bad bad dude...
March 4, 201610 yr Dos Anjos would have ended the Irishman's win streak. I'll look forward to his clever rhetoric when he gets knocked out. It happens to all of them. Frazier's left hook shut Ali's mouth (and caused quite a bit of swelling as well, though he was downed but not knocked out). Don't think it will happen this time against Diaz.
March 5, 201610 yr Author You do know dos Anjos is out don't you? Nate Diaz is fighting McGregor. I waited to long to change it. I want Diaz.
March 5, 201610 yr I am pulling for Diaz, too. First, he's American. Second, Conner MacGregor has a BIG mouth. He disrespects everyone he fights. He's so busy praising himself as being more invincible than Superman I just want to see someone shut him up. The Diaz brothers talk trash too. BUt they usually do it to the other fighter and in the ring during the fight. They don't seem so desperate to build themselves up in the public eye as MacGregor does. As Cowboy said, the Diaz brothers are always the same way--in public or in private, on the street or in the ring. They really don't give a rip what you think. MacGregor needs to be taken down a peg or two. If he keeps going up in weight class, he's going to get himself in trouble. Unfortunately for Diaz, he had to take this fight at a late date and didn't have opportunity to go through a proper training camp like MacGregor has. He hasn't had opportunity to do a lot of sparring and step in the ring with guys who mimic (to some degree) Connor's style. This lack of opportunity to get himself ready is a huge disadvantage for Diaz. It's too bad he didn't get the call to fight MacGregor in a timely fashion so he could truly be at his best.
