Well, McGregor pummeled Diaz early, but his one true weakness showed and he got beat.
Too bad.
That was a weird fight. McGregor was in control then he just hit a wall. He got hit with one good punch them couldn't protect himself. Between that fight and Holly's loss it just proves how important it is to have a ground game.
I'll always believe the best base from which to build an MMA fighter from is wrestling.
Let's Rid3!!!!
Yep - and the fact Diaz didn't have to make weight.
Well, the fact he took the fight on 2 weeks notice and had better stamina than McGregor is a credit to him, not that I'm a fan.
Personally, I was glad to see the hype train come off the tracks. The fact that McGregor was allowed to get a lightweight title shot before he even defended the featherweight title made the UFC look like a joke, IMO.
He doesn't deserve to fight Dos Anjos before Ferguson or the Eagle, or even Diaz for that matter. Leapfrogging legitimate lightweight contenders exposes why Dana White is hindering the credibility of the UFC.
yea diaz had like 10 lbs on him.
Wanted mcgregor to win, but he said he is coming back! so we will see.
yea but the mcgregors style cant drop people at that weight.
And had never taken hits from someone at that weight.
Weight means alot for the style you fight in MMA. I thought he was foolish for moving up, but he won last 15 fights, so might as well try.
