UFC 196
I still dont know how to link properly on my phone lol. Someone post the cold open vid tho or whatever its called
They got dmx narrating it. Lmao Im hype. Feel like a couple weeks ago i was hating on the ufc for not having likable personalities and now boom MCGREGOR/DIAZ havent been this hype in a long time. Debating watching a shitty live stream, or staying off the net and dling a hd rip of it the day after.

Diaz is dumb and I'm trying to not let that cloud my judgement lol but he seems as if he doesn't think he can win. A lotta dead air during his interviews. He looks sloppy too on a skinny fat tip. He couldn't make the 155 or even 160. If it does go more than one round he'll be gassed. However, McGregor sure as he'll isn't used to getting clocked by a 170 pound man. Diaz will come out flying.

bet on McGregor @sraL. I kinda go back and forth on how/when. Diaz is tough to put away, never been knocked out proper (caught a TKO loss a few fights ago). he has been knocked down 4 times in the UFC, though. I'd guess either a late stoppage or decision. If I were a betting man, I'd put money on a 2nd or 3rd round TKO. my personal prediction is a McGregor UD, 50-45 but decently competitive.
Holly Holm winning by UD should be a safe bet for good $, but if you're feeling froggy I think Miesha has a better chance to win than oddsmakers are giving her. a weird one that should pay off is Nordine Taleb against Erick Silva. Silva is the favorite, but he's so inconsistent, and on the decline imo. Taleb is solid and he trains at one of the best gyms in the world, and his game is patient, which is Silva's kryptonite. Other than that, I'd have to check out the odds for the other fights. I'm no betting expert by any means, though.

Luckily my 500 dollar bet didnt go through, my bank blocked the ccbill transaction lol
But i bet a dude straight up 100 on diaz at work. just that he would win, not how. HYPE im going to download it and watch it in hd tho sunday morning lol, so its safe to say im going to have to stay away from all forms of media.

The plus is diaz has little to no power tho. Its not like he has to cut really to get to 170. Im sure he walks around a little heavier maybe but i think people are blowing his weight up.
He couldve easily cut to 155 but they gave him 8 days notice and since he doesnt get the benefit of a camp he didnt want to cut. He said he accepted it at 155 but they asked others after and when no one accepted they went back to diaz and he told them nah he aint cutting now since they jerked him around. Could be a lie from a socially retarded person of course but it sounds like something a diaz would do lol. But yea diaz only advantage physically is his frame. Hes alot longer, but its not like hes a stronger harder hitting guy than 90 percent of the "midgets" mcgregor has faced. As far as skills his boxing is better, but overall striking the advantage is mcgregor. Im sure his jiu jitsu is better as well. If diaz can frustrate mcgregor with his reach it could be a fight. I dont see mcgregor stopping him tho. I see mcgregor mutilating his legs and fucking him up tho lol Still pulling for the upset lol

this is really two lightweights fighting at 170, tho. catchweight, technically. welterweight bout in name only.
as far as 'sparring with fighters in various classes' - true, but sparring isn't a fight. if you knew anything about mcgregor's (cerebral) approach to the game you'd know he's not the nova uniao or chute boxe type dude who will do heavy sparring and eat power shots to acclimate when his tenets are precision, speed and movement. lol. he definitely isn't afraid to take a hit, but like i said: diaz is not a fully-fledged WW, anyway. diaz doesn't 'hit hard' but his punches have pop. uh oh's breakdown is pretty accurate, diaz's length could give him problems on the hands, but kicks - which mcgregor has all day and diaz generally eschews - negate that length. diaz is also very hittable, mean-mugging and offering his chin to guys sometimes -- dude's a straight savage. i think he loses, but grits out a good fight. i think he could actually trouble him with his grappling but i can think of only ONE fight where diaz opted to tangle with a guy and that was with melvin guillard years ago. despite great jiu jitsu savvy, neither brother likes using it because stockton slaps. a lot of mcgregor's counter-punching game rests on baiting opponents so he can backstep and crack them with his tremendous left. backstepping doesn't work so well with taller guys generally (mcgregor's frame is long for the 145 class, possibly 155 too), but he's shown he can lead when he wants with push kicks and left straights albeit this was against chad 'midget' mendes. also, oats - i hope not re: nordine/silva. erick has looked pretty dismal off the steroids but taleb is very average and also french. if he wins it fucks up my accumulator.

Diaz is also a southpaw. I'm curious to see how Connor reacts to that.

I think Diaz is doing it for the money. But McGregz...he's going out there to catch a body for real. The press conference they had, McGreg was talking about how he was gonna kick his ass, and picked apart Diaz's fighting style. I believe him when he says he's gonna destroy him. I think it'll be a quick fight, which is why I'm not gonna pay for it.
