UFC 257 Poirier vs. McGregor 2 [POST FIGHT] Discussion Thread

Chandler, Tony, who else?

Tyron.

 

[Kevo]

Tyron.

That's right

 

[Noise]

People are way too high on Chandler right now, lol. Gathje, Dustin, Oliviera, Anthony, are all ahead of him in line of fucks to give. Hell, isn't Dos Anjos back at 155-lbs.?

Michael's outside the top five looking in, as far as I'm concerned. Completely agree with Dustin – how he's even being considered in the title contention discussion is beyond me. Have him earn his fucking keep.

I have good buddies who trained at top team when they were there. My professor did. That’s one reason why I root for them guys. And they wrestled at Missouri. Jaden Cox is my fave. He’s a Columbia mo guy and I met him when he went to Oakland Junior high (I worked there). When he’s done he’ll be in a conversation for best Missouri athletes. 4 time state champ, 2 national titles (all in Columbia mo) and silver medalist. Hope he wins gold. And he can sing. Awesome guy.

Chandler just wrecked the dude that fought a five round war against Poirier. Why wouldn't he be in the title discussion

Conor may or may not be aging badly, but I think it's just a matter of him going a bit soft.

Kinda hard to be the Irish savage when you're showing up to fight week sipping espresso on a 300 foot yacht.

Hardy pointed it out before the fight extremely well. he predicted it perfectly

and I think the reason he looked old and rough is because he was bald. he shaved his head and a dude like that just doesn't look good with no hair and a beard he keeps to cover up his bad acne

Beautiful sequence

Conor Trump has a nice ring to it!

We were talking about Nate/Conor trilogy but it looks like Nate and Dustin want a piece of each other

From Poirier

“A rematch with Conor interests me,” he said. “Always wanted to whup Nate Diaz’s ass. That interests me. I’m sure something will make sense but just right now I don’t know. Me and Conor are 1-1. Nate Diaz likes to talk a lot of s**t online. But I just got to go home and we’ll see.”

“I can guarantee I won’t be fighting Michael Chandler. They can do whatever they want with the division, I don’t care. But if something happens that makes sense, we can do it.”

Nathaniel wants some Play-Doh and pocket lint money.

You know who is even worse about checking leg kicks than Conor? Nate Diaz.

 

[Poindexter]

I rewatched the fight again today. I loved it.

Nathaniel can't even check the alphabet or long division, smh.

Nathaniel can't even check the alphabet or long division, smh.

He’s good at checking chins and carotid arteries.

[strife]

Straight lol he's almost as bad as Juliana Pena calling out Nunes for 'ducking her'... not sure if anyone caught that or not

[Poindexter]

Gotta feel for the guy. Tough loss and now can't see his family until late Feb because of NZ quarantine.

Except Dustin did duck Nate.

 

[Poindexter]

I watch the main event repeatedly.

 

[Poindexter]

Just watched the full fight again. I watched the knockout twice. That was glorious.
