Hyping the ****e out of what's going to be a one sided beat down

[ntto]

do you really think this will be easy for aldo?

[fidget]

Altitude big factor in Wedum v Velasquez.
Look forward to the rematch.

[Gibbo]

True but training is a large part of the fight, Cain undertrained and overestimated his cardio. Served him right really, was really happy to see Werdum get the win.

[Angryred]

Even a better one from a fan on You Tube

Dunno why people think that this will be a walk in the park for Aldo...he ain't seen **** yet!

[Chazza]

Talk that Aldo has fractured a rib and the fight may be off.

[spud_gun]

He's clearly ducking McGregor

[spud_gun]

Apparently Aldo didn't break a rib. Fight is on.

[Gibbo]

If Aldo does pull out it'll be an interim fight with Mendes.

Some bookies have Conor as favourite to beat Mendes, not too sure about that.

[spud_gun]

Aldo has pulled out.

Mendes fight if for the interim title

[Nicey]

Mendes is a ****ing nightmare match up for McGregor, Aldo pulls out of yet another Title fight ... I just hope this alternate match does not go the way of the previous 3 ...

I was really looking forward to this fight ... been a little bit over the UFC for about a year now ... only really ever get juiced for a small number of fights. I think McGregor has a much tougher fight on his hands with Mendes

[meffin]

Mendes, Edgar, Faber, Aldo- they all beat McGregor easily- He's barely a top 5 fighter

[Gibbo]

Just watched the notorious TV series about McGregor for irish TV.

His dads a prick isn't he.

I am not sure about that, but they are all extremely tough fights for each other. This will be McGregors first world class opponent, he's earned his right to crash the party if you ask me and he is criminally underrated by his detractors, fighters do not under rate him. He is tall, he is powerful, he is unorthodox, he has an evasive Karate stance, and he is a worldclass striker ... he is also pretty tidy on the ground, he currently holds a brown belt in BJJ and they dont hand them out in Christmas crackers
