Oh well.

Was a good fight. Duffy maybe a little bit of stage fright in Vegas for the first time. He looked similar in his first fight back in Cage Warriors (although he did manage to win that). Think he'll go on a good run now and will probably be top 10 in the rankings next year.
There's been a lot of press about how he is the anti McGregor....
No Somos muchos pero estamos locos.
March 5 Las Vegas 197
McGregor moves up to 155 Lbs to fight Rafael dos Anjos for the lightweight belt.

So who else watched?
Surprised the lack of talk in here.
Anyway This photo from the night is just wonderful.
Gallery here:
This chat on the Herd is great too:
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Smashing fight. Was well worth staying up for. Interesting to see where he goes next, reckon most likely gives up the 145 belt and fights for 155.
The Herd video I linkedto above is well worth a watch:
"What we witnessed on Saturday evening folks, was the death of boxing"

Diaz has zoomed up in my estimation after this. Just a class act in the ring all-round the pair of them.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Woke up at 5am and tuned in from the end of the first round. Superb fight and both of those lads ooze class.

Anyone see this? I am pretty sure I have given and taken better punches than this.

McGregor is the only reason Pendred and Ward ever got a shot in the UFC, right?

I barely recovered from 205 on Wednesday. Great card and a cracking ending to it.

I'm not on about the Ghanaian lad. I'm on about the Ward fella. His punches - and general technique - is like something you would see in a scuffle in Supermacs at 3 in the morning.
I'd question how he got this far TBH. Probably the association with McGregor.
Hard to know what you're on about really.
I'm sure the SBG association helps. But you don't just get into UFC because of association. Kinda dangerous.
But you're Irish perhaps you could use that association to get into the UFC. Wouldn't mind seeing you in there with Pendred or Ward.

You didn't think he looked cumbersome in there?
I've seen better technique in the bare knuckle boxing fights Travellers post to YouTube.
I wouldn't mind seeing you in there with the Ghanaian lad.
In fairness, Ward looked really unfit and did really look like he was way out of his depth. Does make you wonder how he managed to get onto that card, but at the end of the day, I'm far from an expert on the subject so I could be way off the mark.

It was a decent night of fights. Pretty good atmosphere, nice mix of knockouts, subs and decisions. Ward was outclassed by a striker who's had 7 knockout wins and never had a fight last more than 86 seconds. I wouldn't say he looked unfit but he was probably a bit naive to get into a slugfest with a guy like that. If he gets another shot in the UFC he'll be hoping for a better match up. Rumoured the UFC don't want "McGregor management" getting too much power so wanted to give him a bad fight.
Well...Amanda Nunes has won. Ronda Rousey is no more. (UFC Wise).
Looks like the McGregor v Mayweather fight is officially on. Both just tweeted about it.
It's set for the 26th of August.
I can only see McGregor being systematically dismantled by Mayweather.
He might string him along for a few rounds. Will it be $150 bucks? I was listening to the Showtime guy on the radio this morning. It doesn't seem like anything else will be on the card. They considered doing another UFC vs Boxer but its doesn't look like they can. I'm really skeptical if this is going to be real or arranged WWE style.
