If things keep going this way I'm going to start giving a history lesson about Neville Chamberlain and the precedents set by the Sudentenland and trust me you don't loving want that.

I apologise for all the poo poo I have given Conor for not defending a belt, it seems no one ever asked him too

I hope Conor does box someone eventually but I think he's smart enough to know he'd get cratered on a big rear end PPV if he fought anyone real. If he's gonna do that for the money I say make it Pacquiao or Floyd.

Nunes mismanaged her energy and got tired. She will make adjustments and fight to a very close victory.

I don't think Nunes has a hope of improving her stamina as much as she needs to, probably better off going even harder in the first two rounds and icing Shevchenko there if possible.

Yeah that's where I'm at. I used to bring up her decision win as a reason her cardio might've improved, but on a rewatch it was clear she only managed to keep from gassing out an extra round, and part of that was because Shevchenko didn't do anything in the first. By the third everything looked half-assed, from her strikes to her takedowns.

I mean, no one's lining up to watch professional talkers like stand up comedians or political theorists box. There you, Conor vs Jimmy Carr for some loving belt or another under some loving rules or another.

People who have jobs other than "professional talker" often have interesting things to say because they have interesting life experiences that dont revolve around talking professionally. Lots of people want to hear them speak personally I wouldnt listen to Conor talk for more than a couple minutes or so unless I was being paid for it

He is a welcome breath of fresh air compared to most fighters and at most pressers but I don't think I could listen to his teachings and musing for an hour.

U dont need to be a pro to say stuff. people n this thread do it all the time myself included :-] though on the other hand i hardly pay attention to mma except by watching fights and reading the titles of the news articles people post in this thread so on a personal level i agree

Say whatever you want about fights and fighters but when someone calls you dumb for saying something dumb and gives you an example of why and how you're dumb dont be a pissbaby about it. Its mma, you can just say "hmmm i guess he might be right" and move on. Ive said plenty of dumb poo poo and been "noped" for it and plenty of less dumb poo poo. Just post and dont be a baby. Also. Ian mccall has not fought for 2 years and not won for 2.5 deapite having 3 fights scheduled in that time. Poor dude must be broke.

He's been getting his show money for the canceled bouts, has a hand in a dispensary, and lives with his mom, so he's probably doing fine.

I would not mind listening to McGregor talk in a scenario where he drops THE NOTORIOUS 4 BILLION DOLLAR MAN persona. If we were going to hear some real talk out of him it might be interesting. We won't get that out of a ppv interview where he arrives in a Bentley and Ariel Helwani is lobbing softball questions at him with stars in his eyes though.

Conor's the best talker currently on the roster, which, much like being the best heavyweight, or the most anything bantamweight, makes him a giant among midgets. Hearing a soundbit from him is fine, but paying actual money to listen to him speak for an hour is utterly outside the realm of my comprehension.

Hearing him relentlessly clown people and get into it with the Diaz's is a lot of fun but I don't really care to see him speak outside of MMA It's funny that Nate Diaz of all people is the only person to get the better of him in poo poo talk
