Conor McGregor vs Nate Diaz.... who's it gonna be???

[?? fisherman]

Fastest finish Aldo 13 seconds ? Didn't Duffy ko Ludwig in less than 10 ?

To clarify.....

McGregors 13 second KO of Jose Aldo is currently the fastest UFC title fight KO finish.

He also holds numerous other 1st round knockouts........ just a few (under 2 mins) including Aldos above are in this order of time. Not really that impressive though

* 4 seconds
* 8 seconds
* 13 seconds
* 16 seconds
* 1:06 seconds
* 1:07 seconds
* 1:22 seconds
* 1:35 seconds
* 1:46 seconds
* 1:54 seconds

Think Conner injured Diaz hand/wrist in that exchange? - it sure looks like Nick was rubbing his hand/wrist after the dust settled...

It sure feels like Nick is just cashing in on his last real UFC paycheck - I'd expect a pretty quick Conner win on Saturday.

I'm getting pretty excited about this fight, I have been watching all the media + press leading up too it so far, I enjoy the hype.

One thing I noticed different about this fight is I don't feel Macgregor has gotten in Diaz's head as much as he usually does for his opponents. I feel like Diaz can care less and is not scared of him.

I also think that Diaz might possibly be getting into Macgregor's head just a little bit. This is definitely gonna be a good fight.

Nick and his team claim he wasn't hurt.

I think Conor made a bad decision there, and could have easily jepordized the main card big time. Diaz is known though for slapping, bumping and getting physical during staredowns, so I think Conor reacted by thinking he was going to try and tag him, so he reacted by knocking his hand away before Nate possibly tried to slap him with it ??

Nearly all Conors fights have been fairly quick (one or two rounds), but I have a feeling this could be his toughest test yet since his time in the UFC. Diaz doesn't get hurt easy........ the guy can take punishment, and although I have never seen him get knocked out, it has happened to him once, so who knows.

I'm thinking mid to end of the 2nd round for Conor to tko Diaz......... but Conor better be very careful in this fight, because Diaz will capitalize if he makes a mistake, and going to the ground could cost him.

Based on the amount of neighbors getting the fight and all the hype - I think PPV and UFC should cash in on this one - including Holmes defending her title.

Conor punched Diaz in the hand because he is scared. Nate is so much bigger than him. Nate is definitely in Conor's head. I hope Nate exposes and punches that open right side of Mcgregors face and then takes him down for some jiu jitsu lessons. It's gonna be good......

I think the amount of people trying to view the live stream weigh-ins are jamming things up. It's not working on my end (just buffering) as well as a friend I just called. Anybody able to view these live right now?

Watched watched the whole thing clear as day on FS2- I am not a fan of the online viewing because of that exact reason.

I think Conor is going to have trouble with fighting 2 weight classes higher.
I hope he wins.
