The MMA thread

The last bit is exactly what McGregor said, which is exactly why it's no fluke. He's repeatedly finished people with that left hand and each time was down to precision, accuracy and timing rather than pure raw power. The fact that it happened within 13 seconds this time doesn't suddenly make it lucky.

I know, I said it wasn't a fluke, but as a fan it's still a bit annoying to have such a big fight end so quickly. I get that it ended through greatness from one of the fighters but at the same time, 13 seconds in? Give us a rematch ffs!

Just noticing Herb Dean giving Aldo a knee to the face as well :lol:
:lol: poor guy
 
Aldo was an asshole for not trying to take down Conor from the first sec.. trying to strand up with him was a horrible mistake.

fecking Conor you are the man!

I never said he doesn't deserve a rematch. But he shouldn't get a rematch on the basis that this fight ended so quickly. That would be inferring that McGregor got lucky. McGregor landed a punch that Aldo couldn't deal with it. He won the fight impressively.

I actually hink he should get a rematch. He's been a great champion and deserves a shot at redeeming himself.

That's a fair point. There's obviously never luck when you knock someone out with a clean shot but at the same time, as I said before, it can happen to anyone which is why even on the basis of this fight I'd love to see a rematch. Just to see them actually go at it and deliver a cracker of a fight.
 
Biggest load of shite I've ever seen. Wanted McCgregor to win, but feck that. Wouln't fancy being one of those cnuts who spent their life savings to get over for that. Loved the commentary of the replays tho, "wow; he managed to throw that punch as he was unconscious"
 
I still cant believe it, don't think i will be able to sleep now, absolutely buzzing, cant wait to hear what my brother thought of it luck bastard, its the sort of thing you see in the movies not in real life one punch knock out.
 
And that's a fact mazhar. Fair few scraps between Brazilians and Irish lads around Gort tonight. Fecking right one outside Supermacs there a while ago. The Brazilian kept trying to take Paidin O Raifeartaigh down to the ground but Paidin's defences were on the ball and he clipped him with a lovely haymaker at the bin outside News n' Choose and it was curtains for your man.

:lol:
 
I can't imagine the party in Vegas tonight, feck sake the Irish loose their shit celebrating when our people are shite, what the feck are we going to do with a world champion?
 
The timing of the punch was essential since Aldo connected as well and had Conor's punch been a few miliseconds too late, it could've been bad for him.
 
Where the feck is the press conference? I'm bollixed.

After all the shit talk, McGregor was very respectful of Jose, as he always is after his fights. Aldo was the opposite. I lost a bit of respect for him.

Yup, Aldo's hit probably had no power as he was dead on his feet.

Conor McGregor: "I'm cocky in prediction, confident in preparation, but always humble in victory or defeat."
hope he lasts longer than 13 seconds :lol:
I hope the opposite, blow yer load lad and get this conference happening! :lol:
 
And now the "hmmmm, seemed like a fix" excuses are rolling out on some MMA websites by their commenters, some with "proper" analysis and all. First Priorer, then Mendes, now Aldo. That's some compliment tbh, probably the highest possible compliment bar "he has to be on PED's".

He's on the double bluff, fix enhancing drugs.
