ooh think Diaz deserved it but not a completely crazy decision. Round 2 maybe they gave to him for the first half
The MMA thread
- Thread starter Fortitude
- Start date
Helwani had it 48-47 McGregor and so did two of the judges. The other had it 47-47.
Wait what?
Thought Diaz had that. Neither deserved to lose though

The new owners of the UFC must have been the judges.
McGregor wants the 3rd fight at 155.
Nah not having that.
McGregor ran away from him 4 times in that fight. Now he wants it on his terms because he scraped a dodgy decision.

Probably just about right. Get in.
Still, McGregor v Diaz 3! 
Bull shit
He definitely won 2 rounds
The 2nd round was the only hard one to decide. It could have gone either way
Trilogy talk straight away. So bloody rigged.
Balor vs Rollins will be a cleaner fight tomorrow night.

So round 3 at 155. feck it I'll watch that.
I remember Conor won at least 3/4 of the second round.
fecking hell, is there any fight Mcgregor wins that some of you lot claim isn't fixed?
Both men were absolutely brilliant tonight. Amazing to watch

People saying it's rigged ffs. 
Great fight, great card overall.
Had it 3-2 to Conor. Glad he got it.
You are talking out your hole
He had him on his arse 2/3 times.
It was a pure dog fight and to be fair one that could have went either way.
Nate had the better of 2, 3 and 5 plain as day.
Gotta imagine all that press conference shite wasn't pre-planned by the Diaz brothers after all, as much as Diaz & McGregor, and probably White too, ffs.
Aye, he did. Diaz came back really strong at the end though. Guess two judges gave it to McGregor and one had it level.
Fantastic card. Shits all over 200.
I think the decision was correct. Mcgregor did knock Diaz down 3 times. He landed more power shots and did more damage.
McGregor apparently broke his foot kicking Diaz
Conor broke his foot
Fair result. Conor must've racked up a lot of points for his three knockdowns. Fantastic fight overall - completely reinvigorated everything thats' great about the UFC.
Diaz ended two better but McGregor dominated the first half/three quarters.
Americano is a known troll when it comes to McGregor. Best ignore.
Fecking amazing fight. Had it 1,2 & 4 for McGregor. Still, Conor's cardio is no good with that weight on him. Back to FW or LW.

Diaz absolutely shat all over him in the 3rd round and end of the 5th though.
And kept throwing it as hard as he could.Conor broke his foot
This is going to sound silly I know, but they were funny knockdowns. Kind of like they were stingers instead of knockdowns. I know it counts as a knockdown but they didn't feel like a knockdown. Oh well, decisions done. Being on the third.
So at press conferences they get arms length close, and all hell breaks loose, throwing bottles, wanting to kill each other, and their teams. And after the fight its all hugs and kisses. Why the feck do people fall for that "animosity" crap, should`nt be allowed, all fake
Almost as fake as the judging?
Smart move by Conor at not going for the ground and pound on his three knockdowns of Nate as he would've gassed quickly and Nate would've taken advantage.
Either way the decision went I would have accepted
I would have also thought a draw was fair
That 2nd round is very hard to judge and no outcome from that round is conterversial
McGregor controlled him for nearly 4 mins of that round but Diaz came back super strong in the last min

I find it hard to accept when someone wins a fight after winning 2 rounds of a 5 round fight. It was definitely close but I think Diaz done just enough to win that.
Talk of a trilogy can piss off. Defend the fecking belt, man.
TBH, UFC is as fixed as Wrestling when it comes to Judges :P
Just remembered I put a fiver on Conor on points haha
They both get paid based on PPV points, so it makes sense that they would ramp up the drama to get more viewers.
1,2,5 to Conor I had. But Nate's flurry at the end of 2 could have swung it. Wild fight, both guys fighting out of their weight class for it twice now. Let's get them back down to their real weights. I for one don't want to see a trilogy immediately,
Conor broke his foot, which is no good for the NY card. Nate will be sore as hell right now, so he will be out for a while as well. Great card over all, Rumble was the highlight for me.
