The whole last month i've been thinking "Cerrone is a slow starter, gets hit alot, freezes on the big stage, is old, got finished twice by inferior strikers to Mcgregor" so i've been thinking, ALLDAY Mcgregor.
BUTTTTT then I had a thought,
Conor wanted it at 170lbs, how bad does he want it? how serious is he taking it? His last upset loss came when he chose not to cut weight against Diaz on short notice, and I feel that he is making this mistake again.
MCgregor was at his hungriest when he was making 145, he wanted it BAD, so bad he was willing to torutre himself. Fighting at 170 tells me he is just showing up to promote his whisky.
Plus how motivated is Cerrone going to be? The chance to go out a fucking legend.
I still have Mcgregor to win based on raw talent alone, but I think it will be alot closer.
* Prime motivated 155 ALvarez Mcgregor finishes this in the first exchange
