Gemmill 2,749 Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Just looking on Wikipedia there, and I see he shared his signature move with CT and his lass: the belly to belly suplex. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kid Dynamite 1,140 Posted February 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 So Dos Anjos has pulled out of the McGregor fight with a broken foot UFC offered Aldo the rematch, 3 weeks after he said he'd fight McGregor anytime, anywhere. He's turned it down Nate Diaz has stepped in but as he's only got 10 days to cut weight the fight is taking place at 170lbs, 25lbs above Mcgregor's last fight! Apparently Khabib, Pettis and Cerrone all offered to take the fight too but they were probably to risky for the UFC they want to protect their product. The Dos Anjos fight will likely happen at UFC200 now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gemmill 2,749 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Aye I was pissed off when I heard it was getting canned, but Diaz will hopefully he entertaining at least. He's got a puncher's chance at that weight too, you would think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ohhh_yeah 156 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 The Sparta Combat League 48 event in Colorado, booked Ann Perez de Tejada versus Laura Dettman. In the first round Laura used her advantage. After some vicious ground-and-pound, she punched her opponent out in the full mount. Laura is 24-years-old. Ann is a 68 year old!

The Dos Anjos fight will likely happen at UFC200 now aye Diaz doesn't have to cut he's already thereabouts had a fight at welterweight back in december, he had dropped down to lightweight before that and got battered so went back up again Cerrone would be a big selling bout as well so would be wasted on this one imo probably the reason it's not him Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kid Dynamite 1,140 Posted February 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 McGregor was probably walking around at 170 expecting to make a cut anyway. Weight suits him too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ant 332 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 McGregor was probably walking around at 170 expecting to make a cut anyway. Weight suits him too aye, for that fight against aldo and mendes he looked gaunt as fuck Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kid Dynamite 1,140 Posted February 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 If he beats Diaz and Dos Anjos he will be fighting Lawler for the 170lb belt before retiring Big If though q Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Gloom 2,929 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Entertaining presser. Diaz talking about how everyone in the UFC is on steroids Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Howay 2,164 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 See Dana White has talked about how it came about, said that Diaz initially said he would cut to 155lbs but after McGregor said yes Diaz said it had to be at a catch weight of 165lbs. White phoned McGregor back up to ask McGregor if 165 was okay and he said "make it 170lbs" . I'm looking forward to this as a slugger like Diaz might make this a bit more interesting with it being a rushed fight, he's also great at getting under peoples skin which he did right away with the steroid comment to McGregor.

Ant 332 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 was talking to a lad in work about the same thing, mcgregor at feather and lightweight is a big hitter for those divisions, but at welterweight that's another story. I'd say he can take a dig though, in that fight against mendes when he was on his back he got properly pummeled for a bit and didn't seem to phase him clearly not steroids in mcgregors case though, he's pretty tall for those divisions it's clear he had to do an insane cut for the Mendes/Aldo fights, think welterweight means he can just watch his intake way less than he would've for lightweight.

Howay 2,164 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Aye he definitely has a decent chin. I agree he wont be as big a hitter but hopefully his excellent footwork and timing will make up for that, I think it'll be interesting.Fully agree regarding McGregor not being on gear, he looked fairly gaunt at lightweight I always thought whereas the weight he is currently walking around at looks a lot more natural. I saw an article saying McGregor has saw 6 opponents in the last 5 years pull out of the bout due to injury, I've no idea how regular it normally is but that seems fairly excessive, do they push themselves harder training for McGregor? fear? Shame it happened mind as I was looking forward to the original match up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kid Dynamite 1,140 Posted February 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Diaz has lost 10/28 fights so on paper it should be an easy win for McGregor. He's only been stopped once in those 28 though. Probably the strongest chin Mcgregor's faced yet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Howay 2,164 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Yeah I don't give Diaz much chance, even if Diaz had months to prepare I'd still put my money on a McGregor win. Just as you say he's not the sort to lose quickly so it'll be interesting especially with Diaz's aggressive style. Sort of on this topic but does anyone listen to Joe Rogan's podcast? he had Bas Rutten on recently and it was an interesting listen. His Lance Armstrong one was good too.

Gemmill 2,749 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 I used to listen to it but I stopped cos he does far too many, and he just makes stuff up endlessly and claims that "it could totally be true" (aliens could definitely have built the pyramids. That could totally be true dude). And then cos everyone who comes on the show is a relatively uninformed stand up, they go wild about how "well read" Rogan is. Burr has Rogan just behind Einstein in the genius stakes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gemmill 2,749 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Having said that, did he have Armstrong on? I'll give that one a listen if so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Howay 2,164 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) Aye he does do a lot and a fair few are shite, I tend to just pick and choose depending on who is on. He has got into bow hunting recently and has had a ton of hunters etc on recently which I don't have loads of interest in. He can chat some shit too, a bloke he had on this week (a comedian) started saying how psychodelics bring you closer to God and that the man just wants to stop that, even Rogan drew the line on that one . Burrs is still class, the best part is he tells you straight up that he's fucking clueless before he rants on something. The Armstrong one is class, I watched it on YouTube over a few days. He also had the lead investigator on the Armstrong case on it a few weeks before Armstrong was on. Edited February 25, 2016 by Howay Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kid Dynamite 1,140 Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 They've spent all week promoting tonight's card and it's not even on tv ffs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JJ 0 Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 They've spent all week promoting tonight's card and it's not even on tv ffs. They're pushing so hard to really get people to buy UFC Fight Pass. Bisping vs Silva was easily the biggest fight they've ever had live on Fight Pass. I've had it for a while, but mostly for the video library. Card was mostly dull last night. Mousasi vs Leites would have been the worst co-main event in a long time if it hadn't been for Kimbo Slice vs Dada 5000 a couple of weeks ago. Main event redeemed the show. It was fucking fantastic.
