Majestic81 Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) Yeah I just read that. The f*ck is this bullsh*t? UFC is becoming a joke. They just wanna keep Conor in the loop to make them more money for as long as possible. He got his ass handed to him by Diaz and proved he's not ready to fight at higher weight. I'd understand if down the line a rematch happened. If Conor went on a win streak, or improved or whatever. But so fast? This is a joke.. And what about the featherweight belt that he needs to defend? C'mon.. Frankie Edgar keeps getting f*cked over. I hope this doesnt turn out to be true. I dont see him beating Diaz anyways. He couldnt beat an unprepared in party shape Diaz. He aint gonna beat a full trained Nate Diaz either. What about Frankie vs Conor, Aldo vs Conor, or RDA vs Nate 2 for UFC 200. There are so many options there that are good. We dont wanna see that fight again so f*cking soon. UFC are just trying to get Nate out of the spotlight he's in now. They never treated the Diaz brothers like they should have.

I Love Anna Kournikova Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) Really? I think this is huge for Nate. He showed that he could beat Conor once and now he gets the chance to do it again. He is making tons of money while also becoming a bigger name. I think they are treating him great. Its Edgar, Aldo, Mendes, and Holloway that are getting f*cked over. I wouldnt mind Conor and Nate having a rematch but only if Conor vacates the 145 belt. If Conor lost again then he would kinda be f*cked. UFC 200 could be a McGregor Diaz co-main event with the main event being Aldo vs Edgar for the 145 title. I would be juts fine with that.

Majestic81 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Well yes there is that. He is gonna get paid well and its a huge event. I just thought he could have gotten a rematch against RDA or some other big fight. I also felt like the UFC are doing this just to have McGregor beat Diaz. Like that is their intention. Just to sort of erase that huge lose he suffered at 196. Its also not about Nate. Its about replicating the fight that sold the biggest PPVs. As for the fight itself, I think its going to be difficult for Conor to win. Diaz was the better fighter in every way when he was out of shape. And thats not exaggerating it in the slightest. He was better standing, on the ground. And had way more stamina. So in full training he's going to be a beast. Conor risks too much. With him its either win big or lose big. If he loses again thats going to be very damaging to him.

El Dildo Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 you know I don't follow the UFC very closely but I'm always listening to radio or podcasts where they talk about it, like Joe Rogan or Jim Norton, etc. and the past couple weeks they've been talking a lot about the "state of the sport" because of all this real-life drama that's going on. apparently Conor McGregor was very close to Joao Carvalho, an MMA fighter who recently died when he became comatose after a fight overseas. that fight wasn't a UFC event obviously but Conor was there watching the match and was pretty upset by what happened. Carvalho was walking around immediately after the TKO for about 20 minutes before he complained of headaches and was rushed to emergency surgery. Carvalho is now the 5th fighter who has died from a sanctioned MMA fight since 2008. http://www.mmafighting.com/2016/4/12/11413100/mma-fighter-joao-carvalho-dies-following-tko-loss-in-ireland Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/429257-official-mma-topic/page/22/#findComment-1068729597 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majestic81 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 He wasnt close with Carvalho. He was there watching in the corner of the other guy fighting him (who is his teammate). Its a combat sport. These things happen and they are the exception. The sport is going to be fine. Im not sure if they did an autopsy yet but the dead fighter probably had something not right going on with his body going into that fight. He could have been out of shape or had an illness or something. As for UFC 200. Conor is playing a dangerous game. The UFC is showing who's boss. Also Jones vs DC would save the 200 card. I dont mind it much. I didnt really wanna see Conor vs Nate again so soon. The first fight was clear as crystal.

Majestic81 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 (edited) Good fights. But nothing was overly surprising or unexpected. Except for Rockhold vs Bisping. Everyone was betting on Rockhold winning. I actually gave Bisping a good chance of winning. He's a tough fighter and really wanted it, so never counted him out. Its always nice to see fighters like Bisping, Tate, Miocic and fighters who are really passionate about getting the belt, actually win and achieve their dreams. And I didnt f*cking know Lesnar is going to be on UFC 200. Holy sh*t! Thats gonna be a great card. It seems they've managed to save it by including Brock and DC vs Jones 2.

Majestic81 Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 (edited) Eh, waste of fights to cram them all in one card. They could separate those and get bigger numbers. They will already make a ton of money with UFC 200 now. Brock is a big draw. And the card was already stacked. Wonder how Conor is gonna fight at featherweight again. Look at the f*cking difference. He looks like a corpse. What a massive cut. But he's done it, he can do it again.

Jones vs Cormier (5 rounds) Lesnar vs Hunt (3 Rounds) Tate vs Nunes (5 Rounds) Aldo vs Edgar (5 rounds) Velasquez vs Browne (3 Rounds) Thats the Main Card order. Thing is Prelims are just as good.

Majestic81 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) Who are you guys picking to win the RDA vs Alvarez fight? I'm choosing RDA. He's too tough to beat right now. My assessments of UFC 200: Aldo vs Edgar is tough to predict. Aldo did not look good in his last fight obviously, and his body looked more deflated. I dunno if its age or something, or maybe the stress that was caused by McGregor. But both are good fighters. I give each one a 50% chance to win. We're not sure if Aldo has fully recovered from the knockout too. Brock vs Hunt also is tough to call. Hunt could knock him out very early.. Jones vs DC. I think DC will be a lot more improved compared to his first fight with Jones but I still pick Jones to win. He's got that mental edge on DC. Tate vs Nunes. Ima pick Tate. Just a hunch.. I think Nunes is a tough fighter but Tate wont give up that belt so easily. and finally, I pick Cain to defeat Browne. Dunno who else is on the card.

Banks. Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) Aldo v Edgar is a close one to call but I'm going with Frankie. He's improved a lot and looked a beast in his last fight against Mendes, not sure how well Aldo has recovered from his knockout loss to McGregor. Lesnar v Hunt is also a hard one to call because Hunt just has that one punch knockout power and could easily catch Lesnar and put him to sleep. For Lesnar to win he obviously has to take Hunt to the ground and smash him on the floor similar to what he did against Mir in their second fight. Hunt is not the best on the ground, Lesnar can't afford to stand and trade with him. Tate will beat Nunes imo. Miesha looked great against Holm and I think she'll hold onto that belt for a while. We need to see Tate v Holm 2. Jones v DC 2 is an excellent fight, DC has improved so much and has one of the best chins in the UFC. A lot of people including me were not that impressed with Jones when he fought OSP but I think that was down to him being rusty and was probably not that motivated for the fight since DC pulled out etc. I fully expect to see the old Jon Jones. Jones will win by UD. Edited July 1, 2016 by Tommy. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/429257-official-mma-topic/page/22/#findComment-1068904343 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majestic81 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Some mentioned (like Greg Jackson) that all the powerlifting that Jones did was the reason he wasnt so impressive in the OSP fight. He said he stopped that for the DC fight too. I am not sure it was totally that. It could have been ring rust and the fact that he didnt have time to prepare for OSP properly, and the fact that fighting Ovince is not a walk in the park either.

Majestic81 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) I doubt they got it wrong. Good on them for trying to clean up the sport though. Everyone acts like they are natural and sh*t and shame others who use steroids. Then end up getting busted for using steroids themselves. He tested positive so its not something that they (USADA) got wrong. Its on Jones. The sample was taken on the 16th of June but the results have come out now. it might be that he was taking normal supplements that contained illegal substances in them. (There are too many of those) but still when you're a pro fighter you shouldnt take stuff if you're not a 100% sure whats in them..

Banks. Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 What a win for Eddie Alvarez he absolutely destroyed Dos Anjos. Brazilian champions are dropping like flies. So Tate v Nunes has been promoted to the main event of 200 with Lesnar v Hunt as the co main event. I'm shocked by this, was certain that Lesnar Hunt was going to headline after Jones DC 2 fell through. Not sure if this is a good decision to have the spider fight DC. Silva is fresh out of surgery and even said himself he hasn't trained much. Good on him for stepping up though.

I Love Anna Kournikova Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Much respect to Silva for stepping up and taking on one of the toughest dudes in the sport on 2 f*cking days notice. I am super happy for DC as well now that he at least gets to fight and get paid. I think DC takes it but I will be rooting for Silva. Alvarez looked solid last night. Thing is, that 155 weight class is so insane. I really do believe any of the top 10 guys could beat each other. Maybe even the top 12 guys. Hard to hold on to the belt for a long time.
