I haven't been watching, but from twitter, the UFC 196 press conference is starting 30-40 minutes late because Conor McGregor did not even leave his house (which is not near the strip) until around the time when the press conference was scheduled to begin.

I think this is gonna be a really good fight.

Not sure I've been this excited for a fight in a long time.

The press conference staredown was hilariously cut short. Diaz was posing with his fist next to Conor's jaw, Conor slapped it aside, and Dana immediately grabbed Diaz to prevent him from reacting long enough for a swarm of security and cops to rush the stage.

UFC 198 (May 14th) will be Werdum vs Miocic, in a Brazilian Stadium.

LMAO

The guy has grown on me. Im officially a fan.

I'm a little torn about this coming weekend.

I've held disdain for Connor McGregor but I absolutely despise the Diaz brothers.

I'd kind of like CM to make that punk shit his pants in a death rattle.

Latest Odds:

Albuquerque: -300
Seattle: +230

Ireland: -400
Stockton: +300

So, a controversial split draw and a chorus of boos with both fighters severely injured?

Double death punch 2KO would be perfect.

McGregor may be a self aggrandizing braggart, but atleast he's intelligent and witty about it

Diaz by contrast, is a slackjawed mook... dumb as a pile of shit

Advantage - McGregor

If Holly and Conor both lose, Dana might hang himself. He definitely did not want Holly to fight until the rematch, but he had no choice but let Holly fight again once he found out that Ronda would need about a full year.

UFC 199 (June 4th) is the rematch between Rockhold and Weidman.

Co-Main is Dominick Cruz vs Urijah Faber for the bantamweight title.

Looks like neither Wonderboy nor MacDonald gets the next shot at Lawler. They are fighting each other, headlining a UFC Fight Night in June.

Rumblings that nate might have a hurt hand after the punch to it in the presser.


Pics of him holding it funny afterward.

Those rumors were quickly dismissed after. Sure, his team and the UFC doctors may be lying, but they all saw what happened and looked at it immediately, it is probably just one of those things where his fingers stung for a couple minutes and he's fine.
