Does it matter when he knocked him out he still done it?

Its more impressive how quick he took him out.

Ah, come on. Any fight that's over that quick has a massive element of luck in it no matter how good the punch was, which it was very good

proper job done, irish style. the hammers finished it under strain of confusion.

must be some smack off his left, the one hitting mendes looked more powerful but still.

he looked nervous, conors confidence definitely got in on him. wouldn't say he's the clainest either, cracked rib me bo***s lol

That's not true though. Plenty of people who claimed he was being protected on the way to the title fight, plenty who said Mendes would destroy him (and then pointed to the 2 week camp) and plenty that said Aldo would destroy him (and they'll probably call it a lucky punch). It's not just his personality these people talk about but also his ability...

i guess so. On the contrary Aldo was the protected one. Sorry, I assumed you were talking about the Irish mentality in general to him (which is quickly diminishing and will verge on near non existent soon i predict)

Still let haters be haters. Responding to them just fuels them and as you said yourself they will always respond with another reason to hate or criticise him.

Well done Conor, delighted for you.

Good card overall, perhaps not the most exhilarating finishes but the match ups were interesting.

Only dampener was that they didn't have the "testicular fortitude" to get Frankie Edgar in the cage and outright declare him as the next challenger. His win last night was stunning, he's an interesting match stylistically for Conor and he's earned his shot.

Dana comes in and it moves to the ceiling.

Conor didnt break a sweat. They should go straight to the presser.

Tyson must have made a career of being lucky then back in the day!

Wow, poor fella....

Feel sorry for him. It probably feels worse to not have the opportunity to do anything more than being bettered over the course of a round. I don't think a rematch would end any differently for him though.

Heart has to go out to Jose.

It kinda did when he was clearly upset, but then he was a sour shyte and gave McGregor no credit, just moaned that it wasn't a proper fight.

I hope they give Frankie the shot he deserves, but there's more money in the rematch so that's what they'll do.

McGregor looked to have the fight won before it even started and finished him with a great punch.

He had it won when they did stage 1 of the promo in Rio earlier in the year. Hearing an outsider tell you "you are going to die" in your native tongue would completely rattle you.

I couldn't imagine Aldo doing the same in English/Irish.


I had my doubts before this fight whether or not he was the real deal but after Mendes and now Aldo, I've got to admit that Mcgregor is a true champion.


Aldo doesn't seem to think so, but he managed to take a full force punch while simultaneously knocking Aldo out.

He was that price at midnight when I was looking. Paddies had them both 10/11. There was a big shift since the weight-in

ah here how do you stop that and leave the last fight go :mad:

Not defending Herb Dean's decision in the previous fight but Weidman was at least conscious and had his hands up. Aldo was unconscious and has his hands down by his side with no attempt to defend himself.

As great as that win was, and it was fu**ing spectacular, I hope a big crowd stayed up and watched the whole card because that was a great night of fights. Two champions getting well pushed over along with some other cracking match ups!

Paddy Power were 10/11 right before the fight

It's an oxymoron and he said it like... three times one after another? Dunno, just seemed weird. Precision is pointless without power, timing is useless without speed etc.

I think the idea is that most fighters have a good degree of power and speed but what separates the great (McGregor) fighters from the rest is their timing and precision.

He was 10/11 today on pp had 110 on meself to win a hundred !

Aldo's right, it wasn't a fight.

A fight would imply some degree of competition.

That was just a fella getting knocked out.

Well played Conor you feckin legend!
