    Mcgregor was just resetting. He's been studying joe Walcott.
    You see this in his
    -Counter over the jab
    -Resetting(attempt at jersey walking)
    -On the cage when he was rolling a lot of the punches.

    So you like his jersey walk or not but what was worse, mcgregors jersey walk or the fact that Nate Diaz best highlight was flipping mcgregor off? Or THE FACT that Nate Diaz boxing is ****! Starting with his footwork. OMG, guy was more off balance then Canelo vs Lara. DEFENSE, (what defense)it's WORSE then his footwork if that's even possible. Guy never slipped or blocked a punch a day in his life and his face after the fight is evidence. If you can believe it only gets worse. He slaps like a female and when he does throw punches he has zero power because he has zero tech on any of his punches and he's off balance. He got dropped 4 times by a smaller man. Hurt to the body not only with punches but that kick in the 4th that landed to the body stopped all of Diaz momentum from the 3rd round. That was the most devastating blow of the fight.
    Anyway
    Did you hear Diaz in the presser. That kid is punchy as hell. Mcgregor brain damaged Diaz the same way golata damaged bowe.

    Strikestats my ass.
    Kicked the **** outta that leg.
    Landed solid connectors. (Evidence on Diaz face)
    SWELLING has nothing to do with scar tissue and Mcgregor broke that nose. Post fight he sounded punchy and nasally.

    The only reason people like Nate Diaz is because of his heart and *****. His jits is great but overall he's a boring fighter. Especially his boxing.

    Having a good chin and being tough is a great attribute but having to show it in a fight over and over. How many times did mcgregor counter that lazy jab over the top and Diaz never learned.

    :deal

    A lot of Nate's popularity before the Conor fight came from being Nick's brother.

    Nate's previous fights always fell short, and I thought he tried too much to act like his bro. Hope he retires after this or 3rd Conor fight and takes a new profession.

    The guy is a boring fighter, people that like him just love the fact he can take a beating. No skill = boring to me.

    Diaz fans are just butthurt that their guy lost... Nothing new. This happens whenever Nick or Nate lose. McGregor won the tactical battle and did more damage, fairly easy and straight forward fight to score.
