UFC 202: Diaz vs McGregor 2 Info and Prediction Thread

[Cazkys]

Mcgregor probably wasn't scared the first time either. Don't have to be scared to get choked out. As a matter of fact he was scared of getting hit again and getting ko'd that's why he went for a takedown and got choked out.

I don't think scared is the right word to use here.  He wasn't by any means "scared" when he attempted the takedown.  He was desperate to get past the 2nd round.  He was trying to use the takedown defensively to get on top of Diaz to kill the time and get a breather somehow.  But due to tiredness both physically and psychologically, McGregor miscalculated or maybe he just totally ignored the the fact that Diaz is a BJJ black belt.

Exactly. All things that he must to supposed to do was spoiled in the last actions.

Im eyeing for Conor McGregor here. He really putting some serious training here.

Anyways, UFC can't afford for another McGregor's loss.

As you said he's really into his training,

"Conor McGregor spent a lot of money to put together the perfect training camp to get a win over Nate Diaz at UFC 202"

He talks a lot of shit, the problem is when you cannot back it up. So far the only guy to talk tons of shit and get away with it every time has been Floyd Mayweather, for 49 times. I hope he comes back once again to hit the perfect 50-0 record.

I like how McGregor is the real deal (Holyfield  ) and does not have a manager to talk for him. There should be more fighter like him to speak his mind and not hide behind a promoter cause they can not string together two words from getting knocked in the head to many times.

I'm going for McGregor in this fight after much thought about it.  I really do think this could go over 2.5 rounds, so I'm betting that as well.  I actually think this is a 5 round fight with Connor winning via unanimous decision.

It's obviously Cody Garbrandt will win by 1st round TKO (punches). In my opinion Takeya Mizugaki doesn't stand a chance against Garbrandt, he's a knockout artist ( 9 Wins/ 8 By knockout/ 1 By decision). By the way who knows what will happen to their match we can't say a word after the fight.

early weekend leans although I'm still not sure what I'm going to play for sure.

These ones seem the most solid and I may just put in that parlay now.

mcgregor/diaz over 2.5 +115

That's why i love Conor McGregor, his trashtalk is beyond good than other fighters and i also pick McGregor for this match versus Diaz.

[bbc.reporter]

I am worried about Nate in this fight. Is it true that he is distracted with all the marketing and the appearances in tv shows? I even read that he is almost 200 pounds now.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

I can't wait for this, not long to go now. I will have to stay up until a ridiculous time to watch it though unfortunately due to the time difference

[KiboPlatform]

I predict a great fight... But I beleive that are no miracles. Diaz is just bigger than McGregor, he has longer hands, that's matter. So my forecast: Diaz wins and UFS save a lot of marketing money, as all the people are waiting for the Fight without any advertising   

[pereira4]

It's going to be an even fight I think. We may not see a KO this time even tho McGregor will try again to go for the KO, but he will be too cautious and the outcome will be a fight that last for all of the rounds and gets decided on UD. That is my prediction.

so obvious  you must have a bet slip for cody ko in the first? or you betting cody a -500? lol

As the fight gets closer and closer that's what I'm thinking as well.  With all the talk that Conor is saying that he'll 'put Diaz away with the same tempo but without gassing out', I think he'll be pacing himself well throughout the fight and he'll be more efficient with his energy.

[krach]

My picks are:
Diaz, Teixeira, Cerrone, Larkin

What has changed since the first Diaz vs. Mc Gregor? Diaz has a full camp.

McTapper gonna tap out again.

Maybe if McGregor fight smart, there is no way Diaz will win this. Diaz just got lucky coz McGregor is already gassed out when he do the submission. McGregor also is more faster than Diaz. He should take advantage to that. I think McGregor is in shape coz he has a lot time to train. I hope this fight is never the same as their last fight

Do you know why McGregor wants to fight at 170 pounds and not at 155 pounds ,which is Nate Diaz's natural weight class, because if at all if he losses again, Mcgregor and the UFC can make excuses about how brave he was to take a fight two weight classes above his and so on, and during all of his promos they are implicating that he is facing someone way above his weight class and so on.hope to see more excuses to come .i expect a tough match this time around.and if Mcgregor doesnt gass out i expect a long fight
