General UFC thread

The Punk fight went exactly how I imagined. Tapped out within minutes.

He should have tested himself against an 0-0 fighter in a regional organisation.

Miocic fight was fun. Surprised Overeem tried to sub him him after he knocked him down.
 
It's official and it's a big one:

UFC 205 in New York.

Eddie Alvarez vs Conor McGregor for the lightweight title.

Can't wait.
 
The full UFC 205 press conference, it's pretty good and funny.



This is the best part - poor Jeremy Stephens...

UFC is turning into the Conor McGregor show. It's starting to get boring now.

Combat sports has always been star led. Right now it's Conor's turn.

Personally I love it when I star rises above the rest.

Don't know how you think it's boring, he takes fight's most think he'll lose, he's k.o'd champs that haven't lost in 10 years in 13 seconds and faced opponents 2 weight classes above him.
 
McGregor is anything but boring, IMO. He can back up his bravado, but his mic game is absolutely top class at times.
 
It's boring as in the sense it's McGregor this and McGregor that. The UFC are letting him do as he pleases all because they want more ppv buys.

One of the biggest critiscms of boxing is that the best in each weight divisions rarely fight each other which pisses off many fans. The UFC for a long time the best would fight the best because of the ranking systems. Since McGregor won the belt he has yet to defend it. I can see why Aldo is pissed off and wants to leave. There is guys who have been busting a gut fighting at lightweight to get a title shot yet McGregor just waltzes in and gets a title shot because he wants to and Dana White is to scared to upset his cash cow.

The best do fight the best in the UFC. He's already faced Aldo and k.o'd him in 13 seconds.

He's now facing the champion lightweight - it's not like he's facing a nobody. The other lightweight contending for the title is Kabib and he's only fought a nobody in 2 years.

If he win's he'll probably drop the featherweight title.

Aldo hasn't done much to warrant a rematch. If he finished Edgar then sure but winning on points hasn't made anyone other than die hard fans want to see the rematch.
 
haha, i can imagine some never heard or seen gangster counting his billions and hearing that, just pausing for a moment to raise an eyebrow to the upstart who said it, ahh i am not even stoned yet either xD
 
The dream fight for me for McGregor a fight with GSP if he ever comes back fighting. Up at Welterweight would be amazing to see. Yes GSP was retired but bowed out as champion. That would be an amazing fight lets be honest Conor fighting at 145 is long gone. He will be between the higher 2 weights in years to come for me.
