Conor McGregor had some problem with police before but his friends are following him, like Dillon Danis who was choked by security guard and later arrested

I'm excited for Ortega. I'll be honest, I haven't always routed for him, especially against the Korean Zombie, but my word did he prove me wrong on that night. One of the best performances I've seen against the Zombie. I'm not 100% confident on him winning this weekend, but I'm confident enough to put a outright win down. I feel like it'll go to a decision, but I know there's knock out power in both fighters. Alex is the favourite, but the odds are fairly close, I think there's good enough value on Ortega though.
The Diaz fight I'm not actually that interested in. I think Lawler wins, but wouldn't be bothered either way. Definitely won't be including it on my accumulator.
What are we thinking about the main event?

Lol. No one really calls it ‘marijuana’ anymore. ‘Marijuana’ is a dumb made up term to make a plant look like it was harmful for your psyche.
No one except wikipedia article
How it called then? Weed? Or Cannabis? Anyway it was really a bad decision to disqualify because Nick had a smoke recently.
Diaz will win this easily as he has some great experience to counter Lawler's skill. Diaz knows how to counter his opponent but lately, he was just not that confident enough to win his last fight. I wonder if he still gets some guts to execute some good plan to win this fight since he already suffered straight losses in his last 2 fights.
I don't know about that. Both have the head and body endurance, and I am sure it will be a brawl match. I think Lawler won't stop until he gets that lucky KO punch just like last time when Nick got wobbly. He may really have a chance for a knockout but he needs to throw more punches. On the other hand, there's no question Nick can endure a lot of punches but sometimes he waste too much time with taunts. He could just preserve those energy and use it for his fist.
Nicks' attitude might get the better of him. I feel like he sometimes plays too passive and tries to endure some of the punches which might end up having him getting KO'd. Sometimes trying to play aggressive and confidently landing some punches on your opponent does the job to break his confidence. I like how Nick tries to read his opponent by taking the time but that could cost him the match. You really don't want to wait for too long to read your opponent to make a counter only to get KO'd in the face.
I hope the Diaz vs. Lawler 2 doesn't turn out to be like Diaz vs. Silva. If you remember Nate had to lay down on the floor because Anderson was too cautious Roby has always been aggressive but who knows how he'll approach the match this time.
If Bryan wins, it will be another great chance for Max to get the belt back.

It was Nick he fought, not Nate.

That fight gave us more than just a boring fight because Diaz was not as fast as Spider and wanted to submit him. That fight showed how bad and unfair athletic commission is. That fight allowed current fighters to smoke marijuana and not be afraid to be disqualified.
Reminder - even though both fighters failed drug tests, Silva was disqualified for 1 year because NSAC found anabolic steroids in his tests, but Diaz was disqualified for 5 years because they found marijuana in his tests. I cant comment why marijuana is worse than anabolic steroids...
After that case, smoking marijuana will no longer affect on drug tests results. So after that case, commission will close eyes if they find it in test.
Lol. No one really calls it ‘marijuana’ anymore. ‘Marijuana’ is a dumb made up term to make a plant look like it was harmful for your psyche. It was mostly used for propaganda during the first rounds of the ‘war on drugs’ in the US. This was around the late 1930’s.

^ Connor McGregor is really an interesting individual. Remember the time when we all thought that conner was just Dana's puppet? Well if that is the case then Dana is surely embarrassed right now. Connor is a guy who actually popularized the UFC and he did the job of a poster boy really well, But those days are long gone. Now he's losing fights he should win, And that causes more frustration. Maybe after all he should just either quit drinking proper 12 and concentrate on fighting for just concentrate on the proper twelve.
Conor McGregor now lacks proper training and discipline, in my opinion, it is really hard for the UFC, organization to adjust to what he did, maybe he can not take how he got beat up by Dustin Poirier that is why he end up In this kind of state in his career and life, or he is just seeking attention that he wants, we may never know for sure.
UFC Vegas 37 last Sunday, was one of the fights that was indeed quite terrible in my opinion, cutelaba dominance really destroyed Devin Clark teeth in that fight, from the beginning of the round Cutelaba immediately appeared fierce and even made it difficult for Devin Clark to fight back, but even so I really salute the unyielding determination that is owned by Devin Clark, even though the doctor who treated him had advised him to give up, but Clark refused and was determined to fight for three full rounds.
I was really shocked by what happened to the match, and that teeth injury of Devin Clark would really leave a dent (get it!) dentures would be possible now, and I can really feel that kind of pain even though I am not Devin Clark, Cutelaba is a monster even though Clark can take down Cutelaba, Cutelaba is really strong that he can counter that takedown and make it his own, and the intensity of Cutelaba was really intense for Clark.

^ Both are mostly strikers, tho Diaz has BJJ skills in his back pocket. It’s an entertaining fight.. and it brings nostalgia and name value for the event. I don’t mind it and could drop a little action on Nick Diaz.

I am completely confused with Diaz vs Lawler fight. Diaz has fought last time years ago, Lawler is on a series of losses. Both fighters form is unknown. Lawler is a striker, Diaz is more BJJ guy that likes and easily goes in exchange. Lawler won most of his fight by KO, while Diaz is really hard to put to sleep. Bookies also offer almost identical odds.

Chalky card. I’d avoid going for the straight bets and go for two or three leg parlays. But I’d take a shot in Brian Ortega as a slight underdog tho. Guy to watch is Chris Daukas. He’s been doing really well since coming in the UFC last year. Fast hands, light on the feet for a heavy weight.
What a follow-up by UFC, the first Lawler / Diaz fight took place in 2004 XD
According to Albert Einstein, traveling in time is impossible, but on news tabloids we see Diaz fights Lawler, Belfort and Ortiz are also mentioned, Fedor Emelianenko fights someone, Anderson "Spider" Silva is on hype again, Cristiano Ronaldo is in Manchester United, Putin is a President. Arent we are back in 2004 ?
(I took that quotation from youtube video)
Current and next numbered UFC events (267-268) are going to be huge. We gonna see a lot of changed in UFC ranking.
Ahahaha, well, you ain't wrong about that XD We might revert back to the old ruleset, hey, what are Royce Gracie, Don Frye, and Akebono up to these days?
Anyway, I am not against fights like these, but this is way overdue and I'd treat this as a glorified sparring match than anything else. Just like Silva and Diaz were. 
Check out Devin Clark teeth injury 
That is really one nasty injury, and even Ion Cutelaba is not happy about it, although we have known Cutelaba for the fast finishes, and simply the fight will not surely go the distance, but it did, and I though myself that Ion Cutelaba might gas out on the fight but he didn't and have a submission won against Clark and I think this is because of Devin Clark's injured teeth that is why he surrendered on the fight because he already has a situation on his part, but this is just my opinion.
What a follow-up by UFC, the first Lawler / Diaz fight took place in 2004 XD At this point I wouldn't even call it a rematch, they are such different fighters that you might as well say it's the first fight they will ever have. But Volk Ortega, now that's a banger. My money is on Alex, I just never got on the Ortega bandwagon.
I just watched the official announcement video of the lawler vs. Diaz rematched and i was very surprised that Nick diaz also participated in that. Usually he is boycotting promos like that for whatever reason. To the fight itself. It is very hard to predict the favorite of this match for me. Diaz lost quite a lot of matches through points recently because that guy really seems to have an iron chin and does not get knocked out. Lawler also lost all of his last 4 matches, i guess diaz is the slight favorite here in the end.

UFC rankings might just get a little bit unexpected. With a lot of great players not doing so well like Connor McGregor, Tony Furgeson, and a lot of new faces like Paddy, Islam doing so well, changes in rankings are bound to happen. Though I went a little out of the weight category but I think people understand what I'm trying to say. UFC's future fights are getting interesting day by day.

Might aswell, look at what McGregor is thinking we should put ourselves in his shoe, and I am looking at possibilities on why Conor McGregor is acting way, point of view Conor McGregor only has a two-fight contract with UFC, we would likely to see if he's going to sign again or just retired, but from this maybe he might try and grab another Exhibition match up with boxer or other retire MMA fighter, just to grab money who knows!
There is no point for Conor McGregor to hang on and fight top title contenders, he can fight against Nate Diaz and that will grab the headlines and most probably one of the biggest fight for him and then hang is gloves for good. May be he come out to have some exhibition bouts and that way he keeps his celebrity status alive.Might aswell, look at what McGregor is thinking we should put ourselves in his shoe, and I am looking at possibilities on why Conor McGregor is acting way, point of view Conor McGregor only has a two-fight contract with UFC, we would likely to see if he's going to sign again or just retired, but from this maybe he might try and grab another Exhibition match up with boxer or other retire MMA fighter, just to grab money who knows!
If he is planning to continue in MMA he needs to go down to 145 pound division where he dominated and not in 155 pound division.

I am just talking about who's going to make Conor McGregor mind straight again, but the Conor McGregor VS Dustin Poirier rematch will not take place again but there are still possibilities for that because it ends up in an injury, But there is still a possibility, and maybe Nate Diaz could be a good match up right now for Conor McGregor, And I don't really know what happens to him, but pretty much what is happening to him right now must be frustration, and this might end up his career if he keeps on doing it.
