Things got a little bit heated at the press conference.  Say what you want about McGregor...he knows how to sell a fight lol.  Of course McGregor was supposed to fight Dos Anjos but he broke his foot.  I was a little bit disappointed because I'd like to see this fight.  Dos Anjos just beat Diaz a little over a year ago by UD so maybe Diaz can at least make it interesting, or he could get lucky and win but I doubt it.

Nice fight between Tate and Holme.  Didn't catch the first 3 rounds but the last two looked like Holme was winning until Tate got inside and put that rear naked choke hold on her.  Very impressive patience shown by Tate, something Rhonda couldn't do.

 

Main event coming up.

Just wish my streams would stop buffering. I missed the end of that fight.

Yeah I'm streaming as well.  The buffering is maddening at times but you just have to keep looking until you find one that isn't maxed out.  I found a decent one that only buffered twice in those two rounds so I didn't miss anything.  Now watch it start to fug up now that McGregor and Diaz is getting ready to start.

Wow...Diaz caught McGregor in the second round with a nice shot and had him stunned.  I didn't think he would finish him off even though McGregor was stumbling around clearly dazed.  But about a minute or so later McGregor tried to take him to the ground and Diaz flipped the script and choked him out.

Amazing.

Conor will be back. He was winning the fight until him being cocky got him clipped. People are shitting on him, but he fought 2 weight classes above his normal one and agreed to fight Diaz on short notice. I wouldn't even be surprised if Conor won an eventual rematch. 

 

Holm vs. Tate was very entertaining. Holm is a badass surviving that many submission attempts and refusing to tap. Miesha is a badass for pulling off the comeback because I was certain we were going to see a classic Greg Jackson points victory by Holly.

Yeah I think McGregor just tired himself out.  He was landing some nice shots...those shots would have probably ended the night for most featherweights.  If he paced himself he probably would have won easily.

    • Yes, but those guys aren't depth guard signings, they're likely going to wait and see who has injuries or players under performing and then sign there. I also think that if Ickey really is going to be able to play at some point this year, that's where our guard depth comes from.  As if he gets to the point of being active, we'd then have 3 LT's on the roster with him, Freeling, and Walker, gotta think one of them not named Freeling gets kicked inside if needed.
    • lol imagine being Hill and this is what your coach thinks about you replacing a guy giving up over 4 goals per game.
    • I don't think Tyreek is a bad player to play with on the field, for sure not in the same way that Diggs is, as he's a cancer on the field with how he acts, and wouldn't take kindly to being 2nd fiddle behind T-Mac. It's that Tyreek is just a terrible person who realistically shouldn't even be in the NFL, his insane athletic ability is why his off field transgressions have been overlooked.  If he was a WR3, no team would have kept him around, it was only that he was a 1st ballot HOF level talent that kept him around. Just zero interest in having a person like that around our young WRs, that's really all it comes down to for me with him. Again, if we were true contenders this year, that changes things and I'd rather bring in the best possible players and hope it works out.  But they're trying to build something here and to do that, you need high quality people, not just great talent.
