seanz25 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Yeah even from yesterday's open workouts to today's weigh ins looks a different bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Fox Piss Posted December 11, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted December 11, 2015 Conor looked on deaths door but he did before 189 so can't put too much into it. Win or lose i don't see another fight at F.W. Too much risk especially when Edgar or Mendes don't offer that much. He can just vacate the belt with a decent excuse and receive little criticism, win-win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Supremo Posted December 11, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted December 11, 2015 I thought Conor actually looked better on the scales than he has done in the past. Certainly better than that time he looked like Skeletor in Dublin, and probably better than he looked at 189, too. Â Well, we made it. It's happening. MMA's going to be very different after tomorrow. If Conor wins it'll be the greatest moment ever. If he loses I think it'll be even more crushing than when Lesnar finally lost and the fun came grinding to a halt. Conor will always be able to sell fights regardless, but there's no denying his schtick will take huge damage if Aldo destroys him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted December 12, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted December 12, 2015 I just watched the weigh and have to be up for work in 6 hours, how am i meant to sleep? This is silliness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted December 12, 2015 Author Paid Members Share Posted December 12, 2015 Right fellas, this fucker begins. Setting alarm for 4.15 to catch the last couple of fights from the tuf finale, then up at 6am when my son wakes up, get some rest whilst he goes for a nap later in the day, bed early, alarm set for 2.30am to catch Faber and the main card, and repeat the 6am get up. Kids make watching UFC live a bastard, don't they? Since my daughter was born my live UFC watching has dropped right off. Used to stay up for every PPV without fail, even the weaker ones, and some Fight Nights depending on the card. Now I only stay up if it's something worth being zombiefied on the Sunday for. Â As for McGregor, he always looks shit when cutting weight. And he always looks fantastic in his fights. It's obviously a hard cut but he clearly does it the correct way to perform how he does in his fights. I don't think it'll be a factor tomorrow. If Aldo beats him it won't be a weight cut thing. Although that'll probably be how it's spun. Just like if McGregor wins it won't be because Aldo is declining. Outside some freak ending like Weidman-Silva 2, whoever wins tomorrow night is the undisputed king of 145 and that's it. Â Can't believe it's actually going to happen. We've cleared the final hurdle with the weigh in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Eddie Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I just watched the weigh and have to be up for work in 6 hours, how am i meant to sleep? This is silliness.  Sleep is silliness.  Drink a litre of coffee, snort a packet of Pro-Plus, take a cold shower and settle down for the Ultimate Fighter finale. Sleep when you're dead...  It's Connor Fucking McGregor Vs Jose Fucking Aldo TOMORROW!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Bifkin Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 After seeing the weigh ins I'm backing Aldo again.  McGregor didn't look quite as bad as the last one but Aldo looked GOOD. I think he might have even won the face off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted December 12, 2015 Author Paid Members Share Posted December 12, 2015 Every time the McGregor weight cut conversation comes up I remember Headshrinker McGregor from the Brandao fight in Dublin last year. Â Look at this shit... Â Â And perhaps more baffling, look at the height. How did McGregor gain two inches in height in two years? As a shortarse, I'd like to know! Â Seriously, he looked well weird against Brandao. Look at him; Â Â He was a right narrow head having motherfucker for that fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members GlennCullen Posted December 12, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted December 12, 2015 Yep, if Mcgregor wins it's 1 more fight max at featherweight.Right fellas, this fucker begins. Setting alarm for 4.15 to catch the last couple of fights from the tuf finale, then up at 6am when my son wakes up, get some rest whilst he goes for a nap later in the day, bed early, alarm set for 2.30am to catch Faber and the main card, and repeat the 6am get up. Â Â Â Strong plan. Â I'll be up at 6 as well for the daughter, try and get a late afternoon/early evening nap then power through. Going to hope the beer pushes me forward, rather than make me tired early doors. Risky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Supremo Posted December 12, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted December 12, 2015 Always good to see McGregor's shrunken head from Dublin. Nothing will ever top that. He looks like a completely different person. Â Bookies have started putting Aldo as the favourite after the weigh ins. Are they unaware that Conor always looks like shit? Compared to that Dublin photo today's version of Conor actually looks quite healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gooner Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 It's finally here, the wait has worked out great, I got Aldo at 7/4 last month, the bookies had lost there minds. Good to see nothing bad went off at the weigh ins, the card is stacked, I can't wait, I got Aldo, Weidman and Jacare to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rey_Piste Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 https://youtu.be/QATFQFWgWJE The final Embedded before tomorrow night and I can't sleep. At least I can have a lie in tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted December 12, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted December 12, 2015 I love how betting lines change once weigh-in's take place, you can have a feeling all build up about how a fight goes down but a one minute standing on a scale/staredown combo can just flip the whole thing on it's head. I fucking love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Glad I got my bet down when I did. PaddyPower still have Conor as the favourite but only just Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
