No interest in Mcgregor v Diaz 3, it'll be another good fight i'm sure, it's just not exciting now.

There's plenty of other targets Mcgregor could go for, but no doubt he wants a guaranteed win next.

Great fight that, like both fighters would love Edgar to win but reckon Holloway will. Got some CV if he does win that fight as well.

Fair enough not wanting the fight but how is it a guarenteed win? He lost to him once and the second fight was very close. It's not like he's fighting Dennis Siver again. I've said before Nate landed the jackpot with the McGregor fight cos it's a pretty awkward stylistic match up for McGregor. It's a tough fight for him if it happens as is proven by the past fights.

I imagine if anything he wants the fight that will generate the most money for him. The winner of Ferguson or Lee sells well (Khabib should be no where near a title shot) but it doesn't sell nearly as well as Nate.
 
Doesn't make sense but my preferred matchup for McGregor is Gaethje. Would be epic levels of fun.

I think it will always be an interesting fight because Nate has an iron chin and McGregor historically has cardio issues.

Looking at the first two fights it was pretty much all McGregor in the opening rounds and then Diaz came into it when fatigue set in.

I would be interested to see if McGregor could keep pace better at 155 and maybe get the knockout.

It wouldn't be my preferred fight for him next (I don't feel Diaz deserves it) but it would be exciting if it happens. The build up would also be great
 
Ferguson is a complete mentalist, some of his training videos are just plain reckless.....yet is seems to work for him. Him vs Conor would be an explosive fight.
 
Every time I see the thread bumped I’m expecting a fight to be off

Really hope this card stays intact
 


Tony shit Dana up again.

I'm looking forward to this card, some interesting fights on it especially the main event.
 
Both are pretty funny guys in fairness, Tony is an odd character though.

I don't like this whole thing UFC fighters have though which Ferguson alludes to where someone dresses up and they're "trying to be McGregor" it's just weird thing to say.
 
I usually like Ferguson but he's really coming over as a cnut lately. Slowly changing who I'm backing in this fight.
 


weighted in at 156... has an hour to make the 155. (weird exception granted...)

another one who doesn't want none with El Cucuy? ffs..

ps. at least Borg made weight. 124.

So pumped for this fight. Been a big Ferguson fan for a long time now, hoping he pulls off a win tomorrow and fights McGregor next. Him and McGregor both have a similar weakness IMO in that they're so open in the striking, Ferguson get's hit quite a lot but is an absolute warrior, Conor is very similar in that respect, I think it'd be a crazy fight.

Ferguson/Lee is going to be explosive. I'd put money on this fight not disappointing.

There are certain fights which simply will not be boring. Now there is no guarantee it’ll be fight of the year but tomorrow’s main event will be a good fight
 
Pearl Gonzalez at the weigh in, feck me she's stunning :drool:

I hadn't even realised that Vannata is fighting Bobby Green on this card. That's going to be a cracker.
 
Kevin Lee is really growing on me. Hope he takes care of business tonight and becomes the next big thing.
 
So predictable. Its no wonder people dont buy as many PPVs anymore. There's always one fighter that drops out.
