TweetNate Diaz def. Conor McGregor via submission (RNC) (2nd, 4:12) Incredible! McGregor is not invincible. I did not think Nate would have the power to hurt him. then on the ground Nate went through connor like a knife through hot butter

Miesha Tate def. Holly Holm via submission (RNC) (R5, 3:30) Clutch win. Miesha was getting beat on the feet with ease. she got holly down in the second and dominate but the 3rd and 4th she could not even get close. a desperation shot and crazy scramble lead to her victory. Congrats to Miesha, she earned it

Ilir Latifi def. Gian Villante via unanimous decision

Corey Anderson def. Tom Lawlor via unanimous decision bad decision

Amanda Nunes def. Valentina Shevchenko via unanimous decision corect decision but the 2 judges that scored it 30-27 for nunes should be fired, she was on her back being punched and elbowed. how can you win in that case?

TweetConor won the 1st and part of the 2nd until nate got those jabs in and conor even said his enrgy at 170 was draining.He didn't make any excuses but I would of like to see nate come down to 155 then lets see but nate knew he couldn't and conor as a man of his word got the fight at 170 and with some ajustments can be a 170lb but he will defend and beat Frankie at 145 then move up.So nate didn't impress me conor didn't adjust to a full 170lb fight when nate came in at peobably 185 he was clearly the bigger man.No excuses nate won but who knows if nate would of won at 155 wich he did ***** out of and said I couldn't make 155 160 165

Agreed...I am happy Connor got a slice of humble pie from Nate, he got beat end of story. Great job to Meisha as well, she deserves it...Holly got caught by a veteran in the sport...as well as Connor.

Tweetim sure vegas cleaned up.. those where some big upsets. funny how I watched them all but those two are the only ones I remember ..haha for the most part I was pretty bored with the rest of the card

TweetYep, Connor would have done better to fight Diaz at 155 even if Diaz weighed 170. Connor gained nothing by adding 25 pounds of water and fat. He looked slow, sluggish and out of shape. Foolish and arrogant attempt to prove nothing in a fight that meant nothing for his career. Anyone who bodybuilds or knows anything about training knows that Connor did not put on much if any true muscle mass in that weight climb. I like Connor and hope he finds more success at his true weight.

that is the weight he starts at before cutting. mid 160s. he just did not go through the cut and weighed in at 168 i think. her was supposed to fight at 155 but when that fell through with RDA and he found out he was fighting Nate who is a 155'r he could just fight at 170 and not have to cut the day before.

he just panicked. he competed 2 weight classes above his own. nate has been at 170 before. did not do well but he knew what to expect. connor did not

The reason guys cut weight is to be strong and fast as hell at a lower weight class. Connor was slow, out shape and gassed. I bet he panicked because he realized he made a huge mistake. Just because you walk around at 168 does not mean you should fight at 170. Guys at 170 walk around at 190+. Connor made a very poor decision and it cost him big time.

but what i am saying is he was the same weight he would fight at 155 either way he would have walked into the cage at 165ish when he fought at 155. one of the reasons he is so good at 145 is he can cut a ton of weight and is bigger than his opponents. this fight he just did not go through the cut which is grueling and saps energy. one is way better off not cutting. he looked on point in the first. busted the hell out of nate. then panicked and gassed trying to KO him.

personally i think he underestimated nate and thought he would walk through him, get a highlight KO and move on. he fired power shots with everything and he gassed trying he even mentioned all those wheel kicks were one reason he gassed. his hands could not stop nate so he tried kicks. then had nothing left.

Not trying to pick a fight but what you just said is that the reason he is so good because he cuts weight and is tough. Then you say its better not to cut. He is too weak at 165 to fight at 170. He does not have the power to drop a good 170 pound fighter. He was foolish to think he was. Now, if he put on some mass and weighed 185-190 and dropped down to 170 (which most guys do, he would have a shot.) He gassed because he was out of fighting shape at 165 and did not have the power to knock a bigger guy out. ONE IS WAY BETTER OFF CUTTING. thats why everyone does it......

TweetI got a chance to watch this. I was glad Connor lost...I hate arrogant POS.

TweetI had a feeling nate was gonna win. Within one minute I knew conor was gonna gas. He was throwing his shows 100% and you cannot keep that up for long.
I wasn't so sure nate could eat those shots though!
If Conor wants to be dominant he has to top off his weight class at 155. He'll never be top tier at 170, no freaking way.

agree, nate asked for a catch weight at 165 but connor wanted 170, bit his in the ass

Tweetso do they have to land right at 170 or can they come in lighter? like body building a heavy can be 198 1/4 to 225 1/4/. so is their any play in where you weigh in at? also dont make freaking excuses. you accept the fight and you know your own strengths and weaknesses. if you think the added bulk is going to slow you down or hinder your cardio, then dont move up. it's pretty simple to me. i said the same thing for rhonda moving up to fight ccyborg. why in the hell as a champ would you move up in weight when you dominate where you are currently at? no excuses and if you agree for something specific then train to be your best but as always fight to your strengths and dont compromise on those or you will lose
