    Na he should have won in the first round like he stated, Nate even said he needed to build up. If Connor wanted to win he shoulda went in from the get go. Everyone needs a slice of humble pie though.

    Mcgregor jumped two weight classes to fight this fight. And Diaz has an iron chin. It was a good fight but he had to gain a *kitten* ton of weight just to fight. No wonder he was gassed after the first round. He put the weight on in less than two months. Lol. It was enjoyable but I think Mcgregor could take Dos Anos at 155 as well as the whole class. But jumping to 170 is a whole different level. He needed to be humbled but Mcgregor still is one of the best pound for pound fighters in the UFC

    Someone who can actually shut me up, you obviously follow.

    Diaz had stamina for days, was a great fight none the less

    Although I didn't have a chance to watch this fight I was completely taken by surprise with the end results.

    First, Holly Holm was defeated. I was disappointed.

    Second, Connor McGregor was man handled. Now although I've never appreciated CM as a fighter and his "methods" during press conferences. I have to just say, This guy has all my respect for going up in weight class to fight bigger boys. Because that is the true spirit of an athlete, that hunger and the desire to challenge your limits. That's something that can't be taught.

    So basically he chirps and chirps too much but mad respect for wanting to push his athletic ability.

    Disappointed that Holly lost. Of course all of the haters will suggest it diminishes the beating she put on Rhonda.

    Thanks @Bbg340 for the unbiased analysis of the fights

    Those final 2 fights were awesome. I'm a fan of both Mcgregor and Nate. I was rooting for Nate. Love the Diaz brothers✊

    I was surprised how he survived that punishment. But He is always a slow starter. If you look at his fight vs Johnson he lost the first round then picked him apart the next 2. I still want to she Mcgregor fight RDA. I think he matches up vs RDA great in the stand up. He's taller with a longer reach and RDA throws wider punches which are easier to counter

    A joke? I don't know about that. Any combo of fights there is interesting and a great fight: tate rousey; tate Holm 2; Holm Rousey 2

    seems like its just Dana's excuse to throw the belt back on Ronda without letting her get stomped by Holly again. i don't really care much to see Ronda beat Miesha again either. I'd much rather watch Ronda v. Holly again and see if she actually learned anything.

    Totally agree!
    And I say that liking rowdy

    I think Dana is going to make whatever fight Rhonda wants him to make. He has serious wood for her and no matter what fight he sets up he will put some ridiculous spin on it. But yes, ultimately, he wants that belt to back on Rhonda
