    Great fighters aren't built off of one or two performances. Personally, I put less stock into quick KOs.... like that's not a reliable indicator of the fighter's skills nor is it a consistent strategy to rely on for longm but McGregor snuffing out Aldo in 13 seconds will live on forever. He defends that belt a few times and he's there. Greats are a marketing job anyway. Nobody talks about Matt Hughes anymore and he's probably top 3-5 of all time.

    Awesome fight, best one I've seen since becoming a fan. Thought Diaz won but wasn't sure, could have really gone either way. Glad Conor won for UFC and Conor's sake, sets up a nice part 3.

    Not really. It was a good fight. Conor is the only star of the sport I've ever disliked, mainly because his followers are the Eminem fans of MMA.

    Huh? Not sure if this is directed at me but been following for longer than you lol. Generalising a whole fan base is stupid. Stop being elitist. Conor would slap the face off you bro

    Yeah I was the exact opposite lol

    Once RDA dropped out, my expectations changed completely. This time though, those f---ers got me s----d into the hype.
