    Nope. McGregor barely beat him. Could have gone either way. Nate was all wrong for McGregor.

    And Nate was recently sued for a lot of money by a former manager(or someone of that kind) and they have a strong case.
    Nate might need some extra cash.

    I have a difficult time imagining Nate Diaz walking Floyd to the ring. Apparently there are some doubts as to whether Justin Bieber will walk out with Floyd. Bieber is a big McGregor fan and he recently cancelled his World Tour apparently to focus on Jesus.

    Tbf Nate is a lot bigger than McGregor. He took a lot of punishment in both fights that would have ended guys in McGregors weight class.

    And it was the way Nate fought. McGregor, like you said, is used to his opponents folding when he punches them. So because of that, McGregor is used to reset himself, but at one point Diaz decided to only move forward.
    McGregor was not used to someone taking his shots and coming right at him. A lot of pressure from a big guy is a hard thing to overcome.
    (i use "used to" too often)

    No. But he mopped the floor with him in the early going tho. But then Diaz, whenever he took one, started walking forward instead of backing up. When he backed up, he hit the ground.

    Diaz weighed around 190 pounds on fight night according to several good sources including Dana White. He has a granite chin but McGregor managed to drop him three times. McGregor has excellent power, certainly with the 4oz gloves.
