...And New...

I like the Irish accent just as much as the next guy, but do we really have to listen to Conor McGregor talk for the next 2 1/2 months until his next fight with Jose Aldo? Good thing I have a gun!

He's a bad man but somebody will come along just a little bit badder before long and he'll get rouseyed!

Wiszard · Dec 13, 2015

Amen...I agree DW. I think that person will be Tony Ferguson.

It's better than the Portuguese/Brazilian accent we've been listening to for years.

Wiszard · Dec 13, 2015

My mistake...Ferguson is a lightweight not featherweight and I don't think he'd be able to move down a division.

LAST EDITED ON Dec-14-15 AT 08:55AM (MST)[p]I expected Connor to knock out Jose. He is only about 40 lbs heavier than him (walking weight) - it's kind of like Mike Tyson sucking down to fight Oscar De La Hoya back in the day. Just too big, too powerful.

What I didn't expect though was the way Rockhold totally dismantled Weidman. Weidman looked outclassed the whole fight. What a beat down!

HOOK 'EM!

My son was yelling at Chris to get up. Wow crazy fights all night. The grappling war was sure a one sided fight.

I waited to almost fight time and "rented the fight" on PPV hoping nothing like the last time I did this. Well I wanted the main fight to last longer and maybe the wild Irishman would beat the chit out of Jose Aldo but then a 13 SECOND KO is not bad either. Chris was not into the fight at all, what a beating he took.

He got into Aldo's head. Dont expect that to happen twice. McGregor may just OD before the rematch.

Wiszard · Dec 14, 2015

I agree with you, Paul. When I saw Aldo up against the fence in the introductions, he looked beat already...almost scared. He looked intimidated. It was like all the talking the McGregor did over the first 3 months...plus the additional month and a half after his rib injury just got into his head. Aldo told the media that he never watched the McGregor/Mendes fight....gimme a break! Silly Brazilian.
I think the next fight will be a little different in that it will go possibly into the 2nd round but the outcome will be the same. Conor is just too long...Aldo can't reach him with leg kicks and certainly can't shoot on him. I could see Conor getting cocky and "playing" with Aldo a little bit and getting caught the same way Anderson Silva did. We shall see. It'll be another huge payday for the UFC.

The best fight of the weekend was Tony Ferguson beating Edson Barbosa. That was a great fight.

Can't wait to see Tamdan McCrory fight in the UFC again (Dec 19th). I always loved the Barn Cat! What a weirdo...but a scrapper.

Well actually I think his fist got in to Aldo's face to be more precise! ;-)

Yeah I know what you mean though - it didn't appear that Jose was as invested in it as Connor was. I still think Connor should be fighting up two weight classes. He has already stated that he wants to fight at 145 too and hold both belts. And I am not sure Aldo gets an immediate rematch. I think Frankie Edgar gets a shot before Aldo gets a rematch.

Aldo and McGregor are featherweights (145). McGregor will move up to lightweight and fight Cerrone when he beats Dos Anjos on Sat night.

I didn't realize you were so into fights, bro. K2 should really be your kid. You two could watch sports center 24/7 and rattle off all the weird and useless facts ya'll have stored in your brains. One day he'll rival you in trivial pursuit in sports info.

OOPS - what did I say? He was moving up to 145? Might have meant from 145 - yeah, I knew he wants to do it against Cowboy - that would be a mega-fight. I am pretty sure he will handle Dos Anjos too. Should be a good one!

Looks like Conor is going to get $100 Million payday according to paper this morning.

Wiszard · Dec 17, 2015

I don't see 100 million but I could see 20 million. Maybe I'm wrong, Brian. Did they break it down where the 100 mil was coming from? They've really marketed the UFC well. Think about all of the countries that are buying pay per view. I started watching the UFC about 10 years ago when the main card fighters were making $20K a fight. That is chump change for the top guys now.
I don't like that they all wear Reebok shorts now...just a way the UFC takes money out of the fighters pocket.
