Conor v Diaz3 @ 219?

[SlapheadGiraffe]

Lots of rumours on Twitter even including a face poster thing!
Said to be at 155 for the belt.

All makes sense on every level but definitely not confirmed...

Should not be for the belt. Nate hasn't earned it.

Nate at lightweight ???? How on earth will he ever make the weigh.........

I get that, but it'll be a lot of fun. Worth it for me, but I can't blame people for not liking the idea.

He's gonna have to cut off a leg!

 

[Robbie Hart]

Nate is going to belittle and bully him this time and will finish him in 3 rounds

Same as GSP

For the belt! that would be savage from the UFC

 

[SlapheadGiraffe]

Ps, hope it’s true...

You sure?

You sure?

People forget that there was a definite winner in the first fight and a potential Adelaide Byrd in the second fight....either way Diaz can always claim a clear win and Conor can't

Calling that decision an Adelaide Byrd moment is an insult to what we saw last week.

The door is that way sir

I know, just thought i would throw it out there.....either way, we have only one clear winner in either fight

You're right but his point is still valid
Only 1 guy can claim a clear victory
The 2nd fight really could go either way

Definitely won't be in California. There's no way that they would ever sanction a fight where a guy has to cut 93lbs to make 155.

I had Mac because I don't think the judges should judge based on Nate's "falling on purpose" claim. It was so close that nobody would have been robbed either way though.

I'm biased, so of course it should be for the belt.

That aside, the UFC has a precedent in this scenario. I understand why people say Nate shouldn't fight for the title, however Nate and Conor are becoming the UFC version of Batman and the Joker. Nate vs Conor for the belt, Ferguson v Lee for the interim, winners fight..... Just like how they did Big Nog v Mir for the interim, and when Randy came back, had him fight Brock for the title, then unified them.

Yes it devalues their titles, but it makes them more money, and right now they're all about trying to make as much cash as possible.

All that said, WAR DIAZ!!!

No way he makes weight.

Conor will not fight this year.

 

[jason73]

Yeah its going to be hard to negotiate this fight conor just made fuck you money and can pretty much do whatever he wants for the rest of his life and nate wont be fighting for peanuts.i would love to see this be the main event for the year end ppv but good luck signing these guys to a contract without breaking the bank

I hope N8 gets paid
