The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- O’Malley v Vera on NOW

Conor v Siver eh, should be a nice striking duel but again, not a wrestler. Oh well, not going to turn down that match up.

Would have loved to see Aldo/Mendes I play out had Aldo not grabbed the fence on the attempted slam. This time around should be a whole lot different, belt could definitely be changing hands

Connor mcgregor is such a showman he's totally Chanel 2.0 on the mic but IMHO he can back it up with his fists

Bobby lashley is totally 10 years too Kate made mice meat of his opponent
 
Ya'll ever heard of a heel? Conor is only in Brazil to catch heat from the fans, that's what they want. People will tune in to watch him get his *** kicked. I highly doubt the UFC brass expected him to be showered in cheers once he hit Rio. I mean, dude has been rolling around in bulletproof trucks with armed guards...

And chanting 'Vai Morrer' ain't nothing new :lol:

I've got Chad by decision this weekend. That Lamas fight had me thinking that the division may be able to catch up to Jose.
 
This is different. Don't think Conor is playing the heel role in all of this. He genuinely likes Brazil and its fans, he respects their passion akin to the Irish fans. He sees all of the potential money. He is looking at Brazil like Mayweather views Mexican fans.

Conor repeatedly said he wants sell out a soccer stadium in Brazil and defend his title on Brazilian soil.

Conor is also saying he expects to get his title shot in Ireland.. against Aldo.
 
Title shot in Ireland :rofl:

Funny how UFC is hyping Connor as if he's in the fight :smh: I don't think he could be cub or frankie and he's getting a title shot before them smh

That's what I was saying before about a challenger getting to fight in his home country for the title. For example, Rory gonna get his shot in Canada. A lot of folks around here seem to not think anything of it though.

As for Conor getting hyped as if he's in the fight, I would disagree. Folks were making it out to be like he was all over the Embedded series so I was expecting to see a huge segment on him.. it was only a few minutes in one of the three episodes. He did do a Q & A with the Brazilian fans but the UFC has done the same thing with several other UFC contenders before someone else's title fight. It's just to introduce them.

Cub and Frankie should be ahead of Conor but like I said when the Conor hype train started gaining steam: It's all about the money, and I saw this coming. Could Cub or Frankie sell out a soccer stadium? No. Couple that with the fact that if Conor gets by Siver, that's not such a shabby resume. I really wouldn't be that upset if Cub or Frankie got skipped over because it's all about money, I wouldn't blame the UFC for that. Aldo/Conor in either Brazil or Ireland would set records money wise.

"Touchy" Fili hyper-aggressive early on. Securing the takedown and strikes from top position.

Edit: Mean knees from the clinch. Won the round for Fili.
