Any thoughts on this fight coming up. I personally believe that this will be a domination by McGregor but Aldo will be game. I think Aldo is good at taking a punch but I think McGregor is to skilled of a striker. My friend think I am full of it but if you study fighting it's very clear the guy is going to be great. After the second exchange it should be clear

I think McGregor has really lit a fire under Aldo with all his trash talk and antics. I think the old Aldo is going to come in and completely dominate with little problem. I'm looking forward to this Saturdays fight. Cain is going to kill Werdum hands down.

Cain should do good just needs to pressure him and clinch when he can and make werdum run out of gas. As for Aldo I just don't think he has the tools to beat McGregor unless it's a one punch knock out wich I don't think he can hit hard enough. And Aldo like to stand and thro big mistake with McGregor but will see

I hope Cain loses, I am fed up with native born Americans showing more interest in the country of their parents birth than the greatest country in the world. However, as far as a fighter, he's tough to beat, if he can stay healthy. Watching mgregor is like watching a wwe star, he's got good mic skills, he's a good fighter, but I think they've hand picked his opponents and let his personae build to spread ufc into the Isles. I think Aldo will show mgregor for wat he really is, a showman.

We all have roots somewhere take pride and respect where you come from so many people forget. An most of the time those are those people that forget are the ones that got there head in there butt thinking there poop dont stink. Well i think as a fighter u have to create a idea of where you come from to get where u wanna get too. I have served in the military an there are so many folks from different countrys that will lay there life down for this one. On the other hand u got americans that are joining isis are just mad about our goverment. Examples okc bombing . Anyhow when its all said and done i just like a good fight. Even if they have mexican-american,irish-american,african-american and etc. |

Lol when some one knows there good and says what they can its showboating but when they do it your like dang. How many hog hunters think they are the best and can or can't do It. Fighting no different if you study the progression of the the athlete you can clearly see the guy is no joke. After the second exchange Aldo will no he is in trouble Aldo is a awesome fighter but his time is about up Mendez in my opinion beat him in the last fight. As far as native born Americans sporting other flags is disappointing there was a time when being a american meant something to all ethnic groups

My grandfather immigrated through Ellis island from Sicily, they did not go on about Italy, they were AMERICAN. The country they left, was no longer their country. They came to America for the opportunities She offered, opportunities offered no where else in the world. Now, being Italian in the south, well, let's just say, the "whites" surely never let you forget where you came from, I had to listen to racial slurs as a kid growing up in the early 60's. I just think it's a little insulting to wear a mouthpiece with the Mexican flag on it when all the accomplishments Cain has earned was while living as an American citizen. All this pseudo hyphenated American crap does nothing but separate and divide different groups of AMERICANS when we should all be pulling together as AMERICANS. I take nothing away from Cain as a fighter, he is a training, fighting machine. He may even over train, I don't know, but he does get injured allot. I think the fight will be closer than some folks think. Last weeks fights from New Orleans were pretty spectacular, I think only 2 out of 12 went the distance.

You're correct Judge, he is Cassius clay cocky for sure. It makes for a good shtick and gets allotted people interested, in him winning or losing. He has a good skill set, faber was saying this week he thinks that mgregor 's only 2 losses were tap out and he questions his ability or I guess his heart when put in a finishing hold. But I believe it's been 5 yrs since mgregor has lost, a lot of growth for mgregor since his last lost. Regardless, I'll get this weeks PPP and prob Aldo mgregor also.

Ya most people will tap before injured. But that doesn't make you a better fighter just tuff.

Well cain walked right into to that choke he was losing the striking game. That's how it goes when you force a take down at that level

Yes very good fight. Man was I wrong abt the Cain/Werdum fight. You could tell 2 mn into the first round that Cain just wasn't himself. That high altitude really took it out of him. His cardio, which he's well known for, just wasn't there. And I'm sure the long lay off didn't hell either. Werdum looked great though. It's amazing how good his striking has gotten and how well rounded he's become these last couple yrs. Every since the Fedor fight he's seemed to really improve. I'm hoping it's him and Dos Santos next.

I always liked dos santos, but boy, did cain have his number. I'm sure cain will kearn alot from this fight and be a much more dangerous fighter because of it, it just seems its hard for the heavyweight champion to hang on to the belt for an extended period.

As a martial arts guy I hate most wrestlers. I hate the way thay grind on you using strength instead of technical moves like judo, bjj.. but I really like Cain. Too bad to lose like that. On Aldo vs McGregor. I dont know McGregor ground skillsn he is light on his feet I like that but dont know his overall mma Skills

McGregor is still evolving I think his ground game is good enough to survive his cardio is in the elite set strikes are top notch but what I think set him apart is his study of himself not others most fighters train for each fight and have a certain game plan he doesn't train like that he polishes his skills not his plan. I think most fans will be in shock after this fight

I respectfully disagree with you, I will say as a martial artist and an ex college wrestler both that wrestling is not all strength and is very much technique based too, as much as Judo. Its just when its at the highest levels you get the best athletes who usually tend to be strong and make it look easy. When I was still fighting professionally I liked keeping it on the feet, but my first few pro fights I would just take them down immediately because I had a lot of people there and I did not want to get surprised in front of them. One of the first things I learned about MMA is anything can happen when you only wear 4 oz gloves! |

The thing bout mma is anything can happen guys lose all the time to some one with less accolades in there discipline. The hardest thing to deal with is a clean powerful strike nothing beats that now second best skill is movement then chin then wrestling or take down body control after that all disciplines bout the same. Don't really matter how good you are in those things at that level cuz every one is the greats just do it and make the other guy fight his way

Your right I must say about techniques in wraslen.. im just not verry good at it and hate when I get matched up with a take down guy....I chose to stay on my feet and sprawl. Wizard, forearm to face and upper cuts. If down bridge and get this leach off of me..  |

I like that fixitlouie, I used to do the same thing and I am that take down guy lol. The art of it is being able to use the threat of a take down to give yourself the striking advantage. That is why imo wrestlers will always have the advantage because they choose where the fight takes place whether it be on the feet or on the ground.
And when I say wrestler as referenced above I mean a higher level of wrestler such as a good college wrestler. There is a real big difference in levels, even at the H.S. level for example a state champ from CA or PA is a lot different then a state champ from SC or NV.

When McGregor stops bullying little featherweight boys and goes up to lightweight, where he belongs,he wont look so good.Absolutely zero chance against Dos Anjos,Cowboy Cerrone ,Pettis and co. Mcgregor can actually fight as a welterweight without looking out of shape so there is definitely a huge weight and power advantage when he rehydrates and carbs up after they weigh ins which I think is the main reason he barrels through opponents.
