We've seen him go the distance once in 3 years and he gassed in 3 rounds against a 155er fighting at WW. I live in the Bay Area, but I am extremely confident that Nate is getting finished on Saturday night. I'll be shocked if he wins. Ok and Masvidal got worked by Wonderboy less than 2 years ago, Larkin and Benson about 2 or so years ago too. Nate Diaz is not an overrated Ben Askren.

FinneasGage Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Just now, BullsandBroncos said: Agreed. Pettis had him a couple times and he should've worked cowboy way harder than he already did. Tony is so insanely awkward, I could see him even getting stand up KO'd by Khabib for crying out loud. Let alone Conor. People say he got a lucky shot against Aldo, I say Aldo fights like a flailing psycho and if you have good accuracy and timing, like Conor does, night night. I'm not saying Conor easily beats Tony. But if Tony got KO'd by him in the first 2 rounds, I wouldn't be shocked. At all. feel like he's been dropped in every fight since the lando war. think if conor puts him down it's over. but yeah ferg could easily beat him. that'd be the most most anticipated conor fight besides the jorge fight for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2nd fight was awesome. Only behind Lawler/Condit and Lawler/Rory. Wouldn't mind a slugfest with Gaethje. But, I'll believe it when it happens. I'm tired of Ferguson being the heavier Cejudo with his cringe mouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'd say there's a tiny chance the god given counter left still is there. Who knows. We'll probably never see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullsandBroncos Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 The mutual backgrounds and respect between Diaz and Masvidal make me want to watch it more than guys who just BS trash talk each other. I would like to think that it's a 5 round fight. A couple fight night main events I watched were only 3 when I thought they were 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has gone 5 rounds at 170 once in his entire career and it was against Conor McGregor a 145er. Edited October 30, 2019 by NYRaider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(till technically won but iirc I thought WB won and Pettis KO'd him but for the most part WB was easily winning that fight) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big poppa pump Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 These 2 are both journeyman. Look at their records. Not stiffs per se....but neither are title contenders. They are entertaining in and out of the ring, which makes this a fun matchup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big poppa pump Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Would absolutely love to see Romero slap that bean pole Adesanya around!!!!!! https://mmajunkie.usatoday.com/2019/10/yoel-romero-responds-to-israel-adesanya-give-me-the-date-ufc-title-fight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Adesanya talked **** about Whittaker fighting 40 year old wrestlers but, now that Costa is out and he's all talk in regards to fighting Jones, he's calling Yoel out lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can survive the beginning they are golden but when you fight the best of the best you cant be susceptible to big shots early on. If he survived the 1st round vs Conor, I'd feel confident he'd win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm the opposite, I feel like they can talk a big game and back it up, I want to hear the banter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
