[UFC 329] Conor McGregor vs Max Holloway

[bbc.reporter]

Will this fight be the winner get the bad motherfucker belt? This will certainly cause Conor to be back to the UFC for much longer if he will have the bad motherfucker belt hehehehe. I also very much wish this will cause other fighter like Justin Gaethje and Michael Chandler to challenge Conor or also Paddy the baddy!

Paddy the baddy would be awesome! Whenever I see Paddy the baddy, I have to think of this German fighter as the possible daddy.

Paddy the baddy and his daddy!



You see what I see?

I very much agree on Conor vs. Paddy to be the next fight for the bad motherfucker title! They are also rumored to have a hateful relationship. There was a rumor that Conor went to Paddy's house because Co or wants to give Paddy a flying kick!

In any case, Paddy will fight against Benoit Saint Denis on UFC 329! If Paddy will get the victory, he will certainly be next to fight Conor! This will certainly be a good fight for the fans!

This is the first time I’ve ever heard it mentioned that there is a possibility that Conor McGregor and Paddy the Baddy could fight. I don’t think it is a possibility. They seem like they’re on two different ends of their careers and it seems like neither would benefit much from the fight.

[TopTort777]

If they make Paddy vs McGregor, then can name it England vs Ireland and make beef out of that I am bad at history and we did not study history of United Kingdom that good at school, but is there a historical conflict between England and Ireland? But that fight will be even more predicted than Holloway vs McGregor, as Paddy would choke him in first-second round.

I doubt that UFC will sign Frederic Vosgrone. He looks genetically freaky due to his hairstyle and huge trapezius muscles. And he is bulky. Doubt he will pass doping test in UFC Despite wrestling, he cant do much. He is really bad at striking. Being 93kg UFC would force him to cut to fit in middleweight, as he will be the smallest guy for light heavyweight. Middleweight has too many good strikers that would kick Vosgrone ass

I doubt it too. His abilities are too limited as you say and the only thing he could do is to always try and get his opponent to the ground. As for the doping test, he is never going to pass it. He looks like a freak because he actually naturally looks like a freak and even more so when he is sweaty and pumped. But there is without a doubt some magic potion at play. The red skin in that upper chest / shoulder area is unusual as well. Trapezius muscles can frequently be a sign of abuse.

I really shared this not to stir the discussion as to whether or not he is going to make it to the UFC, but because I thought Paddy looks a bit like the downscaled version of him. If Paddys hair was wet in the foto I shared, it would be pretty damn close.

[TopTort777]

Close but with only 1 condition, there is 20kg difference between them And to be honest, Paddy have high chances of beating this dude

Btw, Conor fans have purchased all available tickets within first hours and later prices skyrockets at resellers But, I think many of those who have bought tickets wish to see Conor being KOed for the first time. Would be a huge mess if fight gets cancelled or Conor replaced

The benefit would be very much money purse received for the both of them and for Paddy the baddy, having the victory against Conor for the bad motherfucker belt will increase his value as an MMA fighter where he can demand more money from the UFC. For Conor, this can make him prove that he can still defeat younger fighters and also increase his value as an MMA fighter where he can also negotiate for more money from the UFC.

Also, Conor can deliver the flying kick to Paddy hehehehehe! We can be quite certain that the fans will buy all of the tickets to watch this live!

@TopTort777. You are very much mistaken. There is only 15 pounds difference in welterweight and lightweight. Paddy can also increase weight very easily heheheheh.

[TopTort777]

@TopTort777. You are very much mistaken. There is only 15 pounds difference in welterweight and lightweight. Paddy can also increase weight very easily heheheheh.

Paddy is a lightweight at @ 70kg, Vosgrone @ 91kg. Of course these are just division official weights and during fight everyone will be much heavier. Maybe I was wrong with 20kg, but difference wont be 15lb If this fight ever happens, I dont think that Paddy will be that stupid to gain and lose speed?

Anyway. Does anyone give Conor any chances to win this? How do you guys imagine this fight is going to go?

Frederic Vosgröne is like a mutant Paddy He became popular because of his caveman appearance. Is he an elite level fighter? I don't think so, his striking isn't good and he is still relatively untested in the octagon but one thing is clear, this guy is blasting roids very hard, this is not a natural body.

This is the first time I’ve ever heard it mentioned that there is a possibility that Conor McGregor and Paddy the Baddy could fight. I don’t think it is a possibility. They seem like they’re on two different ends of their careers and it seems like neither would benefit much from the fight.

This is the first time I heard about this match up too. If anything, I would love to see Topuria VS McGregor but here is the thing, it will be a boring because the fate of this match is 100% clear, Topuria KOs Conor. If it was Topuria VS Prime Conor, then it would be one of the best UFC match ever.

If they make Paddy vs McGregor, then can name it England vs Ireland and make beef out of that I am bad at history and we did not study history of United Kingdom that good at school, but is there a historical conflict between England and Ireland? But that fight will be even more predicted than Holloway vs McGregor, as Paddy would choke him in first-second round.

Yes, there is a beef between Ireland and England because England dominated Ireland politically and militarily for centuries. There is a viral moment of how Cillian Murphy shook Prince Harry's hand in London, at the 2017 world premiere of the film Dunkirk. You can see that video.

I am neither English nor Irish, but even Ik now there is a BIG problem between them . I mean historically they have fought for centuries now, and even up until recently there were English that were banning even walking around, if you know why Irish people face the kings and queens and princes with hands in their pockets (learned it when Cillian murphy did it) you know how serious it is.

There were literally Irish dying off starvation because of the English, and other nations had to help. Why do you think IRA even existed? So if they turn it into political mess, then it is not going to end well. They can't make it political like that, because if they use PR for historical stuff, there is really sensitive subjects that will go into play.

It appears that I have misunderstood what you mentioned hehehe. I was talking about Conor vs. Paddy. This big bad motherfucker fight will be very much similar to Nate Diaz vs. Jorge Masvidal for the fans!

In any case on Conor vs. Max, if Conor will train similar on how he was training before, he might have a chance. There is also Max's weak jaw after the knockout vs. the big headed Topuria. This will certainly be an advantage for Conor Gregor, he is back!

I would not be so sure that Max has weak jaw. He was knocked out only once. However 36 professional fights are not making it stronger either Situation with Conor is difficult. If we close eyes on his injury and 5 year pause and focus on his performance, then statistically, the heavier he was the worse his performance was. Now they will be fighting even as welterweights. Featherweight was his peak form. As lightweight he has more losses than wins. Going up and fighting now as welterweight means he has problems cutting weight, red flag for bad health and form. Otherwise they would fight originally as lightweights, as both are from that division.

[bitgolden]

While I am sure they are testing for PED, it's possible they are testing for drugs too, there is no way someone not get anything like steroid or anything but get on cocaine and that works well for you, it would be unfair for either side if that is the case, so I am sure he is getting tested for that too.

In any case, this is just a exhibition match in all regards, nobody really thinks this is a serious fight, both have been away, Conor specially been away for so long that he has literally became an actor meanwhile.

You are joking, right? UFC never run exhibiting matches. If there would be a knockout in this fight, it would be a real knockout, not a little knockdown and ref jumps in to stop the fight. Exhibition match usually means different round length and gloves (I take boxing info, as I never saw an exhibition MMA fight). Nothing of that was announced. Even if Conor is an actor, politician, businessman, drunky, father, showmen - Max wont take this fight light and use only half of his skill

I have not known UFC to have a exhibition fight. Maybe it will be if Conor is fighting a retired boxer like what he did before, with Floyd. But it's not, it's UFC the main headline and Conor is not fighting someone that is not a good fighter.

So not sure what you mean that this is a exhibition fight. Sure, Conor is out for a long time and so this is a big comeback fight for him and I don't think that he will be coming and not prepare himself. Yes, he had some movies, but this is not scripted as far as I know.

It's only McGregor who has been away for a while. Max has been active. He just lost to Oliveira a few months ago. Conor has been away for around 5 years already. After losing to Poirier for 2 consecutive times, he left the Octagon. But this upcoming fight of his isn't exhibition. This is a fight whose result would reflect on his professional record.

Although this isn't the kind of rematch fans would have wanted, at least they'll meet again inside the Octagon--that's after 13 long years, if I'm not mistaken. So, I don't think Max wouldn't consider this one as a serious fight. He'd probably avenge his 2013 loss. But I don't think Conor would be as serious. Although the man isn't bankrupt, he's probably back for the money.

It's now known that Conor is back for the money, there's no doubt about that. However, this fight isn't an exhibition, but rather a full-fledged bout, and it will impact both fighters' professional records. Conor is currently coming off a long hiatus, and usually a low-caliber fight is a way to regroup, but in this case he's up against Max, who has been active unlike him. So unless Conor slams down his training, it'll be a long day in the cell for him.

The late 80s and 90s were incredibly violent, bombings and target killing were common headlines worldwide, not just in Ireland and yes, they have a bloody history.

In the featherweight division, Conor McGregor had a physical size and reach advantage over most of his opponents, making it easier for him to dominate. Only Max Holloway was taller than him, and he became the first fighter to take McGregor to a decision.

Later on, it was difficult for him to cut down to 145 pounds and hence moved up. In the higher division, he never had the size and reach advantage and so he started losing.

Common sense says, there is no way Conor could defeat the current version of Max Holloway. The only time I ever placed a bet on Conor McGregor was during his fight against Nate Diaz. When Nate was bloodied up in the first round, placed a full house thinking that I could recover my losses from the Jose Aldo fight and ended up losing yet again.

I have not known UFC to have a exhibition fight. Maybe it will be if Conor is fighting a retired boxer like what he did before, with Floyd. But it's not, it's UFC the main headline and Conor is not fighting someone that is not a good fighter.

UFC has welcomed boxers in the past, like James Tony to fight with MMA rules and he fought Randy Couture, the hype during that period was huge, but the fight lasted less than 2 minutes.  

OneFC conducted exhibition bouts, with special rules. One round Muay Thai rules and another MMA rules. Demetrious Johnson fought against the legendary Rodtang.

So you cannot expect any fighters, who has no background in the ground game to enter a MMA bout knowing that they will get humiliated on the ground.

Conor has a list of potential opponents for the BMF title, like Nate Diaz and Michael Chandler, which could turn into massive events.   

[Pumared]

My expectation is that the winner of this fight will face Charles Oliveira. And in my view, the fight that would sell the most would undoubtedly be Connor vs. Oliveira. It would be epic to see that fight happen, even though neither of them is at a high level right now.

Otherwise they would fight originally as lightweights, as both are from that division.

However, I would argue that even if the weak stamina of Conor is becoming weaker already because of the sniffing of drugs and drinking of much whisky, his power punches should not be underestimated. My speculation on Conor agreeing to sign the contract to challenge Max is Conor also speculates that Max has presently a glass jaw.

There is only 1 punch Conor is presently training. This his power punch on his left hand heheheh. If this will connect on Max's jaw, we might witness another knockout similar to what he has received from the big headed Topuria.

[TopTort777]

Even though Max loves to get into wild throwing punches, especially by the end of the fight, even though he has a long career and gained some damage, I doubt he has a glass jaw or crystal chin. Only knocked out once. Max isnt even doing any sparring while training. Which means his chin or jaw has taken less damage than others Conor might be training his one punch, but I think Max today is on another speed level and that Conors punch will have little chances of catching Max chin.
