    McGregor and Diaz press conference was hilarious. They just sat there insulting each other nonstop.

    Diaz accused McGregor of being on roids. Connor said Diaz throws up gang signs with his right hand while making animal balloons for kids with his left. Throw in some racial slurs and arguing about who had more money and you get the gist of the press conference.

    Needless to say, I'm pretty excited for this one.

    I would say don't waste your money. McGregor's going to knock him out faster than Aldo. lol

    I can't wait for Cormier and Jones.

    ^ LOL, dumb soccer fans from my home town. I guess it's better this way than fighting "uncontrolled" in the fields, woods etc.
    Still, pretty crazy.

    I often wonder how much of this is real and how much is promotion.

    I think those two are about as real as it gets. They just have very similar personalities and it will naturally clash.

    Nate's the only other guy that can hang with McGreggor's s*** talking though. That fighting Irish stance :rofl:

    The only thing I regret is that this match didn't have more time leading up. I want Nate to really be ready so it's as good of a fight as possible.

    I think Diaz is going to get rocked, but he's crazy enough to get in there and tangle for a bit which should be interesting.

    During the weigh in, Diaz looks incredibly out of shape. Like conor said, he looks skinny and fat at the same time. Strange look.

    They say he's been training for a triathlon. Totally different shape than training for a fight, but they say he has been in super cardio training for it.

    No idea if that's bull s***, or if it's true.

    This interview is hilarious, but Nate feels like he's feeling the pressure, while Conor seems super relaxed.
