I fucking love the "skrap pack" these dudes really know how to get under your skin. Fuckin hilarious lol. It's not calculated wwe shit like Conor it's just real to them

Conor's got a good ol Irish temperment. "It's fookin on now, it's fookin on"

Just watched the weigh ins. Conor is way too emotional to take a cautious approach. I already didn't believe that talk because everything he said about the fight was about him KOing Nate. Now after I saw how amped he is at the weigh ins I believe it less

Kinda hoping Conor loses this then loses his next fight so he's 0-3, and just retires :). It'll all be a blip hehe. Sound like such a hater but whatever lol

I really feel like story has a chance to win but I'm not really willing to bet on it lol. Hes won so many fights that he shouldn't have

I was only a few months into betting at the time when he fought Gunnar. Knew he was gonna win like 3 months out but I didn't place a bet :(. He was in the +300s IIRC

This fight will end inside distance but I do think the outside chance Conor wins first few rds and Nate doesnt stop him late. Cant see Nate winning multiple rds and not getting the stoppages. To me Nate no scorecards at +123 is a better bet than Nate at +115

He was suppose to lose to Benson, Maynard, RDA, Thompson, Rory, DHK, Joe Stevenson, Guida, and Franca. I don't know about his first loss but it was in his second fight. The second Maynard fight was a %&$#show and a stinker every other fight I wasn't expecting Nate to win and yes I've been watching mma that long.

I can say a couple times when Diaz was suppose to lose and won. Cowboy, McGregor, Marcus Davis, Melvin Guillard, Josh Neer, MJ.

he was definitely favored vs Thompson bc I remember loving Thompson at around +150. yeah, he was huge underdog and was pretty confident Henderson and Dos Anjos would handle him. really wasnt betting MMA alot prior when he fought Daddy, Kim and some of the other fights mentioned.
no doubt though he was big dog for McGregor 1, Johnson, Cerrone.
 
Besides Thompson, Nate really only loses to people that are good enough at striking to get inside and grapple fuck him or just be too physical for him. Rda, benson, Maynard, Stevenson, etc fit that mold. Especially rda and Ben. They were too good and too strong for nate

Rogan seems to think that nates gonna win so that's a good confidence boost lol
 
I already bet on Rumble, but I'm mulling over this fight in my head and Glover may very well be able to grind out a victory.

Sure, Rumble stopped Phil's takedowns, but he's not impossible to take down. If Glover gets him down, Rumble is going to have a big problem.

Is rogan good at picks?
He forgets about fights. He had no idea Holloway lost to Bermudez and I think Dustin.

One thing Nate backers have on their side is Brandon scaub picked Conor and placed a 3k bet.
 
i had a lot of reading to catch up on lol. First off I gotta say that many people on here get to bent out of shape over someones comments. Nobody should get banned for comments that are not excessive like racism or other pure hate speech. I for one value Robbiedawgs input as well as most others on here. I have made good money on taking advice from people here, and lost money sometimes for not taking their advice lol. All in all everyone needs to check their ego at the door and have some good discussion.

My main thought is that has their ever been an instant rematch in a fight where one person clearly dominated the fight like diaz/conor 1? Add the fact that Conor moved up 2 weightclasses and no way can his body of adjusted to fighting bigger guys, not to mention the reach and ground advantage Nate has. I remember GSP saying he needed 12 months or so to properly move up to MW to fight Anderson when that talk happened. That makes more sense to me, the fact that Conor thinks he can just move up 2 weightclasses and compete with the likes of nate is mind blowing to me. At 155 I think he has a much better chance, but at 170 it just seems like a BJ penn flashback of a truly gifted fighter losing some of his career and taking some unneeded punishment fighter bigger guys.

I think its foolish to think he can pot shot nate and save his gas tank, when nate will keep pressure on for the full 5 rounds. I am going big and will go bigger if i hit some of the fights on the undercard. I was one who bet on Conor in the first fight, like a fool, I thought it was at 155 when i bet, but i still felt confident going into the fight. After watching it play out i do not see what people think will go different in the fight tomorrow.

From memory dc had to fight tooth and nail to get rumble down even r2 he was having a nightmare to begin with. I always speak on here about glovers excellent takedowns but i think he struggles to get aj down.

Where did Brandon Schwab said he bet 3k? He's probably the worst person I've seen on podcasts etc at making picks.
