Has any fighter in mma ever....

What's your pick in the rematch? Me personally, i think Conor needs to bring something else to the table to reverse the decision of fight 1 :good

 

Personally I would still favour Nate Diaz to win again. In a 5 rd fight Diaz has a great engine on him is tough as nails with an a-grade ground game and will force Conor to fight. Conor needs to be very careful this time not to bomb away too much looking for the finish in the first rd or he may well expel too much energy and Diaz will just take over and finish him eventually. The 5 rds imo definately favour Diaz whereas a 3 rd fight would be better for Conor's chances imo.

I'm picking Diaz and I hope he finishes him again.

If Conor loses he will have to fight the Edgar Aldo winner at 145 surely and if Edgar wins I don't see Conor beating him. Edgar will do what Mendes did but not gas and g'n'p and eventually sub Conor imo.

 

Now we're taking. Vovchanchyn at around 210lb taking on 330 odd lb Fred Floyd, for example.

 

Win lose or draw Conor should campaign at 155lbs after this fight.

 

Stop exaggerating. Mcgregor is 5 foot 9, Diaz is 6 foot even. Diaz has a 76 inch reach, Mcgregor 74 inch reach. This colossus size advantage for Diaz you guys talk about is fiction. Mcgregor weighed 173 2 days before the Mendes fight and was reported to be at 177 the week of the Diaz fight. Diaz is a guy who is known to not cut much weight for his fights. He went up to 170 for a few fights because he thought he had the skills to compensate against the bigger fighters at WW. Could Diaz make FW? I don't know but I doubt he'd have to cut 30+ pounds with the use of diuretics and IVs.
