    The walk out was pretty good, and was all Nick imo.

    It took what Conor wants (control of the event) and literally walked away with it.

    Conor wants to be the show, its the role he is used to, its the role he is good at. An attempt to take that away, to disrupt that can only be seen as something clever by an opponent.

    The mumbling, cursing, other then some fantastic one liners are simply that, mumbling, refusing to rise to any bait last time was a good tactic also, attempting to flip the script on McGregor this time is also good tactics.

    It only matters if McGregor lets it affect him come fight night as always, all that really matters happens when the cage door closes.

    Nate and Conor both look in great shape by the way, both definitely took this seriously and approached it correctly.

    As long as they don't **** it up during the face off we are in for one hell of a treat!

    When is the face off ?

    Conor looks in great shape, better than the last time. Thought he looked like he was up BF% last time

    Weigh in is now done earlier in the day to allow fighters more time to rehydrate. Then later in the day there's a "fake" weigh in and a staredown for media purposes.

    They're allowed one person each to attend weigh in, so they will be able control, plus no Nick there

    I tried to pay for the pay-per-view. So if you don't have BT or Eir there is literally no legal way to watch this!? Absolutely astonishing, I was actually going to pay for streaming and I'm not allowed to and have no legal way to watch it. And they wonder why people don't pay for stuff online. What's the logic of this particular madness?

    No you're wrong, it was Glen Trowbridge who scored it that way.
