@Pior
He ****** with plenty of opponents, such as stealing Aldo belt.  The fact he never slapped there hands is irrelevant since he knew that would piss Nate off. Or did you miss the countless times Nate said if he pulled anything he throw on him?  That was Conor pulling **** on Nate, knowing dam well Nate would overreact to it.



What else where you getting at with your "act right" comment?  If you not implying he should get in trouble, what where you implying?  I am all ears for your explanation,because otherwise it a stupid comment to make, since you know there going to beat the **** out of eachother on Sat. So if your not implying he can get in trouble, then what was the point of that comment?

Acting right would be not physically swinging st someone prior to the fight, but I don't think he should be punished and never meant that sorry if thats how you read it. Whatever this whole argument is ******** since it's all opinion anyway on who was annoyed more.

Nate didn't look so good at the weigh in, it's so weird, he was jacked against Johnson.

If Nate wins, will Dana still try to give Conor a shot at Lawlor?

Prediction: wrong McGregor   wrong Decision  

This is such an odd match-up, it's hard for me to pick the way in which it'll be won. Nate Diaz is a very unpredictable fighter, but he has always succumbed to good kickers which leads me to believe that McGregor will knock him out. With that being said, I just can't picture that happening (for some weird ******* reason) so I'll go McGregor by decision. This is one of the oddest fights ever put together in UFC history, I can't ******* wait to watch it.

Prediction: wrong McGregor   wrong Decision  

I'm not talking about their personalities, I'm referring to their in-ring work. Nate Diaz can look like a top 5 boxer in the UFC on some nights, and a lazy disinterested has-been in others. Nick Diaz has always been more consistent when it comes to his in-ring performances because he doesn't take nights off, but Nate (whose ceiling was always higher in my opinion) hasn't shown to commit nearly as consistently.

I wonder if Nate's gonna take this fight to the ground, I think he would submit McGregor with ease. Nate's jiu-jitsu is so slick that I think he'd be able to pull guard on McGregor and work wonders from there.

Prediction: wrong McGregor   wrong Decision  

Conor McGregor needs to vacate that FW belt so that Frankie Edgar can go and win it. If McGregor wins the lightweight title, a McGregor/Edgar champion vs. champion grudge match would be the most amazing fight in the history of ever.

Prediction: wrong McGregor   wrong Decision  

I don't really agree with what Joe said about Conor's jiu jitsu being a big whole in his game. He was able to defend agains't Chad Mendes' submission attacks, and I know that Diaz bjj>Chad Mendes bjj, but still, the fight with Mendes showed that his defense was solid. I think Nate got the submission here because he had already substantially hurt McGregor on the feet.
