    As much as I like watching Conor fight, I reckon he'll be saying that for every fight until he gets egg on his face.

    I'd say you'd be so far in front from betting on his predictions you wont mind if he comes unstuck at some stage and leaves it till the 2nd to knock someone out


    He toyed with porier there his kick will take the head of someone very soon

    There's always a little tiny bit of doubt you feel when the fight is about to start. What if this happens? What if that happens?

    Then he just comes out and lives up to it all and you're just like 'OK then'

    That'll be the new line from the haters. Bullsheeeeet!

    Poirier was hurt and ducked his head, that's how the shot ended up hitting him in the back of the head.

    the amount of talking mcgregor done in the ring he continued in poirier's head even during the fight was unreal. He looked as he had just walked straight in after a few games on the tables he was so relaxed.

    Ultimately, he has a huge battle on the feet. And he'll need some solid defense to get out if trouble. His head down cover up approach (verses Cub) won't cut it.

    Bingo. Head down and covers up. Clipped behind the ear. Goodnight.

    I think the real hit was the clean punch he got in a few seconds before. Anyone else using headphones so as not to wake people up would have heard it very loud and clear.

    Have to be honest here i was not fond of him last year ,seen him as the bernard dunne of UFC,BUT he has done us proud,proved many wrong,i didn't doubt him though and hats off to him. He has proved himself a worthy fighter and will not go down without a fight..Nor will he quit of he looses one...

    Been following this sport for years and to have legit Irish fighters make serious waves in the world's biggest MMA organisation is pretty incredible given the size of our country.

    Call me what you want because I doubt you'll be here much longer anyway.
