JBMasterAngler Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I read the play by play online, then would check the highlights on youtube before they were taken down. Sounds like it was one of the best cards they've ever put together. Lawler is a beast! Was hoping Mendes would expose McGregor, but oh well.

JBMasterAngler Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I just read that Conor McGregor and Urijah Faber are going to be opposing coaches on the next season of TUF. However, they are not going to fight each other after the season, which is typically the case for opposing coaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMITOUT Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 The UFC wouldn't waste the time on that match with McGregor's star on the rise. He's one of the biggest draws of the company right now outside of Rousey and will only be fighting for titles until he gets beat a time or two. I'd love to see a championship fight held in Dublin against Aldo but it's sounding like it'll be in Vegas again. UFC 189 was the first one I've ever purchased and it was all that it was hyped up to be. Top to bottom every fight on the card was fantastic. The reviews by the insiders almost all rate this card as one if the best ever, with the Lawler fight being one of the best fights ever. Aside from the first round where there was little to no action, it was unbelievable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBMasterAngler Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 UFC is planning a fight card in Dublin in October, but it's scheduled to be on fight pass. McGregor was pretty blunt about the need to fight on that card, but it's not looking good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMITOUT Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 Yep, but they are having issues getting a larger venue for a main fight. Permitting problems of some sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMITOUT Posted December 13, 2015 Author Share Posted December 13, 2015 The dude can back up his talk cant wait to see him and Aldo fightGotta love McGregor shutting up the haters!!!Now we know why that C-S Aldo went running the last time. 13 sec? Pfffft. Go back to Brazil, fraud. There is a new king in town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBMasterAngler Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I would hardly call Aldo a fraud, considering he was undefeated for over 10 years, and beat just about all the other featherweights in the division...majority of which was in dominating fashion. I'm not so much surprised that McGregor won, but definitely shocked in the manner in which he won. I hated McGregor until I watched him on TUF. Him and Faber going back and fourth with each other was classic! I actually like him now. I think he'll fight at least 1 more fight at 145, despite all signs pointing to him moving up. I'll be cheering for Donald Cerrone this weekend, as I believe a McGregor/Cerrone fight would be very exciting, as well as the build up to it.

LMITOUT Posted December 16, 2015 Author Share Posted December 16, 2015 Aldo ran from fights his entire career because of alleged injuries. He had a nice 10 year run but never had the pressure on him like he did when McGregor came steamrolling up the ranks. Aldo folded like a cheap lawn chair before he even stepped into the ring.

JBMasterAngler Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I'll agree, I think he was mentally defeated months ago. I was fooled a bit at the weigh in though. I don't think Dana White wants McGregor to fight Frankie Edgar. I believe once CM goes to the ground he's dead meat, and that's exactly where Edgar would plan on putting him. So, unfortunately I don't think that fight ever happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBMasterAngler Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Looks like McGregor will be fighting Rafael dos Anjos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMITOUT Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 Maybe. I don't think it's been decided that he'll move up but all signs seem to point that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
