McGregor is going to knock this bitch out. KO by the end of the 3rd round.
Do you honestly think that? Because it would be better for McGregor to KO Alvarez as early as possible. If it reaches the third round that's when Alvarez can start grinding McGregor down and make him wrestle for his life.
I think someone mentioned that McGregor shouldn't have taken this fight because his body has not rejuvenated fully from the fight vs Diaz. This could be another case of overconfidence by him just like the first fight vs Diaz. We all know what happened to that.
Dana White was on the cowherd show yesterday and said that
he wouldn't let McGregor have belts in 2 divisions. I think as long
as he defends each title each year he should be able to have both.
Obviously he can't just sit on the title and hold it he has to defend
it.

Alvarez is an animal when it comes to the ground game, his wrestling is spot on,take a look at the match against Anthony Pettis,he was taking pettis down at will and pounding him,he has had wars inside the cage with great fighters and Alvarez can go five rounds and still keep the pace,Mcgregor has to improve his stamina,he is very good in the first round and then wears out gradually.
Looking at how he performed on the 3rd to the last round when he squared of against Nate Diaz, he looks too tired and about to pass out. Nate Diaz is taunting him and leading him to a trap and wrestle but Diaz did not succeed on that. McGregor have the punching power to knock Alvarez but he needs to do that in the first 2 rounds. If McGregor's stamina is like Hendo who lasted 5 rounds then we have a sure winner here.The problem with Nate Diaz was he is not a wrestler but a high level BJJ practioner,if the opponent takes him to the ground he will submit him on the other hand Alvarez can take Mcgregor down and is a good wrestler and he can take a punch,Mcgregor has good punching accuracy what is the only way Mcgregor could win this match,no one has ever knocked out Alvarez,could Mcgregor do that,he might in the first round if not Alvarez will make him look silly after the fight.
Alvarez will be bringing his girl the red panties after this fight....Alvarez will put McGregor on his back and keep him there the entire fight....But, I hope McGregor wins because it'd be nice to see Diaz with a belt for a change. McGregor only has two good rounds in him and Alvarez will have this guy so exhausted by round three that McGregor will have to bring his pillow to round four if it gets there. The matchup predicts Alvarez in three. However, if the powers that be had a say, McGregor would win the belt to set up the BIG money fight for McGregor vs. Diaz number III! <----You know how it works.

Haha, yes that's how it sometimes works. Yeah I agree with you though. A McGregor victory would be much much better for the UFC and the fans as there would be more possibilities for exciting match ups. McGregor vs Diaz III is nice but there's news that Dominic Cruz is also sending feelers to McGregor as posted by bbc.reporter a few posts up. I would also love to see that fight happen as I'm also a Cruz fan.

McGregor in both fights started to gas out in the third round. That happened in both fights maybe because he was carrying that extra weight at 170 lbs. In 155 lbs. he could be faster and lighter but Alvarez could employ the same strategy he used vs Pettis. Make McGregor wrestle for his life and I have no idea how he would react to that. And Alvarez is good at boxing too. Watch his old fights on Youtube. He's quite good with his hands.

No it is much better for Conor McGregor to go after UFC history by holding two championship belts at the same time. If he becomes the light weight champion, then Nate Diaz can challenge him for the belt. The 3rd fight between them will be more exciting if it will happen that way.
There is now also some news that Dominic Cruz wants to fight Conor in either feather weight or light weight. He too is looking for a challenge.

I must agree with you, although I understand what pereira4 is saying. I really think Connor will win this one, as for me he is an incredible complete fighter. I definitely prefer him on his feet than on the ground, because of his unpredictable and powerful attacks. And yes, after this win I think there must be a new fight vs Diaz, and that will be a fight for history if he wins again.

I'm rooting for McGregor to win so that he could make history but I would have to agree with Clement. McGregor is far from being a compete fighter as he's skills in the ground, while it's not weak, it's not particularly strong either. So I think I'm holding my bet for this fight atm and wait for the lines to move. This fight could be closer to a coin flip than everyone realizes and some could even argue that Alvarez's relentless style and experience could edge out McGregor. If the odds go higher on Alvarez as the fight nears then I would bet on him. And I believe it will happen the day before the fight because the casual bettors will be piling in money on McGregor. But if I could get odds better than 1.80 on the Irishman then I would take it. But that's doubtful.

you are calling him a complete fighter yet you prefer him on his feet rather than being on the ground,that is a funny statement buddy,even McGregor prefers to stay on his feet as he has no skills on the ground and you cannot call anyone a complete fighter without having skills on the floor.

Connor McGregor should have fought Nate Diaz again for the trilogy instead of going for someone else. The last fight was too even, it is not clear yet who is best. To prove it they must fight again.
Why do I have this bad feeling that there will be some fight cancellations in this coming UFC event?
Almost every fight regardless if its a Fight Night or a UFC event, one will be caught with illegal substance, one will not meet the weight limit, someone will get injured. What will be the next alibi of UFC if ever this 205 will not push through.

Aldo always said he is not a money whore and he is not aiming for the match for the money,his legacy in the sport is questioned and the manner in which Mcgregor defeated Aldo is really humiliating that he wanted revenge ,Aldo thinks he fell into Mcgregor's trap with all the media tour and stuff and made a mockery in the fight.if he was looking for money he would have fought at UFC 205 since it is going to be a huge event and pay day will be huge too,he rejected the match altogether
What do you mean he rejected the match? What match? A match vs McGregor? I don't think McGregor offered him a rematch for UFC 205. He wanted to go after Alvarez at light weight because there's more money to be made in it. The way things are rolling for him now, he'll go for the big money rather than fight Aldo for peanuts. That's when Aldo got butthurt because it's becoming clear now that he's slowly becoming irrelevant in the UFC. There was a time that no fighter and the UFC itself would not reject what he wanted. But that era is gone now.
jose Aldo was offered a match with Max Holloway at ufc 205 and jose aldo rejected the proposal as he was promised to unify the belt after the Edgar match and still no progress after all the false promises and so is the reason he wanted a release from the contract from UFC
There are news circulating around McGregor got "knocked out cold" during a sparring session and might have a broken nose. Looks like there will be a fight cancellation again or the whole fight in NYC will be cancelled just like what happened in the Philippines. This is a good excuse if there's a low ticket sales turn out.
haha
where did you hear this news buddy,just curious to know the details,googled and could not find anything relating this incident but saw a news that Conor McGregor was fined $150000 for UFC 202 bottle throwing incident . i dont think they will ever cancel the New york event .
