    You guys are nuts if you think McGregor is going through Ferguson. He is the one who presents match up issues for McGregor with his durability and strong ground game. The guys subs are slick and powerful, he is going to break something on Conor.

    Johnson is a better all around fighter, and he's clean. Silva's one punch power seemed to go bye bye once UFC started getting serious about P.E.D. testing.

    Yeah right. If it happens, Overeem won't be the one to do it. There's a good chance that Overeem's chin will implode when he touches gloves with Ngannou at the end of prefight instructions. He'll be wobbly before the bell even rings to start round one.

    McGregors punchers are faster and snappier at the weight... As is his footwork. Also there's definitely reason to believe that Diaz isn't as durable(he's still pretty damn durable) after cutting to 155. But I think both factors together lead to McGregor having a much easier time.

    But he's there to be hit and hurt - although yeah... If he can make it the 3rd or 4th round he poses a lot of problems. Hard to get the image of McGregor stopping him inside 1 or 2 rounds out of my head though.

    You just never know with that guy... Sometimes he shows up and looks like a complete kill, other times he's getting stopped by the likes of Rothwell or Browne. We have no idea how good Ngannous chin or overall durability is either.... But yeah, my gut feeling is that he clips and stops Overeem early.
