Seems it could be Cerrone.

Im hearing Diaz from lads here

[When Jokers Attack]

Cerrone, Diaz, Pettis, Faber all want the fight. pissed off with this news as it fucks up everything. If McGregor wins the interim title then he would face RDA at UFC 200. Edgar wouldn't get his shot until end of year, which means LW contenders won't get a crack until 2017. This was always going to a problem when your champion is in two weight classes. Of course none  of this is Conor's fault, I love how he never gets injured and is active, shame about his opponents constantly delaying the fights.

Be interesting to see if McGregor wins- which I think he will, quite handily- if he goes for the Welterweight title against Robbie Lawler.

it wouldnt be an interim title, thats not how interims work. I think he beats Diaz fairly easily, Diaz looked awful against RDA, his last fight he was very impressive, but that was after a full camp. We shall see, if Diaz does win, Conor will have plenty of justifiable excuses anyway.

[ThomThomDrum]

So this is going to be a 170 bout. Any chances that McGregor wins this and stays at 170 for UFC 200 to face Lawler? 

[t8yman]

Thats what people are hoping for around the sherdog forums etc. I think the most likely bout at 200 for cmg is the Frankie fight.

We'll see. Hes a lot shorter than most of these guys. Diaz is 6ft.

It'll surely be RDA now. 

 

Be funny if Diaz kicks fuck out of him.

Aldo and Edgar both said no.

Yeah saw that. More ammo for McGregors mouth going forward. "They all run away from me etc etc"

aha! Was only going by what Dana said.

[ThomThomDrum]

Bit fucking stupid of Dana saying that.

Why the fuck would you ask a guy a week after surgery if he wanted to fight McGregor in 10 days time!?

[t8yman]

Dana will be fucking miffed, thats probably why he was being like a bear with a sore head.

[When Jokers Attack]

This is the first time in a while that everyone expects McGregor to win so would be funny if he did lose. Diaz looked really good in his last fight but how will he look with a week to prepare? He would be wise trying to take it he ground (I say this every time McGregor fights!) where he would have a clear advantage. Media event later today, let the fun begin. Diaz won't take ANY of shit.

Yep if anything more people will watch this now with Diaz. Defo fireworks later! Two loudmouths people want to see lose.

[t8yman]

I hope he brings the shit talk, ramped up to 11.

Diaz needs to fight his own fight, if Conor gets inside his head - it will work out bad.

A few people saying that McGregor winds his opponents up so much that they train too hard and get injured as a result.

Diaz talking about him here after his last fight.

Very interested to see how McGregor deals with someone 3 inches taller than him and with a bigger reach.

The last time Diaz fought on PPV was 2011, when he defeated Cowboy.

I enjoyed the Diaz McG presser, it was kinda cobbled together in the gym in torrance, looked fairly "gangsta" in its presentation, and I even found Conor bearable. At least he demonstrated a kind of level of respect for the Diaz brothers. Maybe he felt that Diaz wouldnt be phased by his shit talk.

Also, got my top secret details for the "symposium" with Rockhold. we arent allowed to disclose the location, and it appears to be a decent event, plus we all get photo ops with LR, and presented with a UFC glove signed by him. Plus I get to discover a part of London I have never visited before.

That will be amazing. Really wish I was going to this event.

Has Nate Diaz got legit mental deficiencies? That's certainly how he came across during the press conference. A complete shambles of a man.

[t8yman]

He has a speech impediment.
