Deuce7 Posted November 28, 2015 Report Share Posted November 28, 2015 McGregor - I'm really having a hard time choosing, but I think McGregor might actually be in Aldo's head. Weidman - I really want to pick Rockhold, but Weidman has looked so good since winning the title. Souza - Please can we finally see Souza fight for the damn title! Nelson - I'm calling it, Nelson KO's Maia Holloway - Still say Holloway should be fighting Frankie Edgar, maybe after this (unless Frankie gets a title shot) Faber - Seriously Faber, move up to 145 and take "super-fights" Torres Covington Lee Mustafaev Makdessi McGee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacman Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 McGregor - Aldo is the more well rounded fighter but I think Conor is in his head big time. I think he probably fights the fight Conor wants plus Conor has a lot of power in his hands, I see him finishing Aldo within 3 rounds. I felt weird typing all that. Weidman Souza Nelson Holloway - I still absolutely despise his nickname but he's a great fighter and Stephens is a great stepping stone for him. Faber Alves Santos Mustafaev Makdessi McGee Torres Tecia Torres apparently has a replacement opponent for UFC 194(Jocelyn Jones-Lybarger). They haven't added that fight on the UFC website but I made my pick anyway in case it is on the card and I forget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 McGregor - My mind is telling me Aldo, my heart is telling me McGregor. Very tough to pick, gonna back the man I'll be supporting. Most anticipated fight in UFC history IMO. Weidman - another one bites the dust. The guy seems to be unstoppable. Souza Nelson - Wouldn't be surprised if we saw an early KO despite them both being ground guys.

stpierrecanada Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I think im the only one who picked Rockhold here so far.. It's a 50/50 matchup for me, both are amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arlenbalesmma Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 McGregor - feel like he has way too much for Aldo to handle. Mendes with full camp and Edgar in prime condition would give him a run for his money, but standing up? I can't see Aldo doing anything. Aldo is fast and strong, McGregor is faster and stronger, not only that but he hits you as he's backing away, he's a master of reach, you can't hit him when he's backing away from you but he always seems to find the angle to hit his opponent. Rockhold - feel like he might actually edge this. I can't tell you why. Not based on statistics, skills, performance. I just feel it for some reason. Not sure why, Weidman is an absolute killer, but there it is. Pretty close match up, could go either way, but I'm backing Rockhold for this. Souza Holloway - looking forward to see Holloway since he fought McGregor, this kid has so much potential. If McGregor hadn't torn his knee and changed strategy in their fight, Holloway could have stood with him, would have been much closer, and hey Stephens is more than a decent fighter himself Nelson - something to prove. Two of the best in the game here, I feel Nelson will get an early(ish) (T)KO here, both great subs, but Nelson is also very strong, very quick, and he trains his boxing with McGregor, who regardless of whether you love or hate him, is a phenomenal boxer. Faber - easiest selection so far, I'm also a little bias, I'm desperate for Faber to win this and stick with it and face McGregor down the line, just because of all the banter on TUF hyping this potential fight up. Although I did hear he now wants to take Dillashaw instead(which will be hilarious to watch, TJ would wreck him) Torres Alves Santos Mustafaev Makdessi McGee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce7 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 I'm noticing a lot of predictions (including my own) with Gunnar Nelson getting a KO win. I think his stand up is vastly improved and very underrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLP Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 I'm anticipating Rockhold/Weidman far more than aldo/mcgregor. I haven't decided who I will pick yet, if Aldo hadn't been off for over a year and so injury prone I'd favor him for sure. McGregor's the younger, bigger, healthier fighter and his power and chin are both very good. I like McGregor's work rate in the cage and his use of angles and footwork are strong. But I was a little shocked how well mendes did standing in the first round before he slowed down (whether from the short camp or body shots only mendes knows). Mendes is probably close to Aldo in quickness, but Aldo is a far better striker than Mendes will ever be. So if Mendes was landing consistently I have to think Aldo will do even better. My main concern with Aldo is that he's a few years older and has been in some grueling fights. Lots of rounds in title fights with top guys and he trains at a notoriously brutal camp. With that and the injuries, he might be in the "gets old overnight" danger zone. I would definitely favor prime Aldo over McGregor but I think Aldo is already past that.

They haven't added that fight on the UFC website but I made my pick anyway in case it is on the card and I forget. What about the Faber fight? They've added the Torres fight, so people who made picks as soon as the thread was started need to add that pick (St pierre Canada, Deuce, Wolf, Giorgistpoop, Rory). Also, Gimmgs and McMoneyGregor need to pick for McGee/Alexandre. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bwang Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Dammit it's gonna be a pretty exciting night of fights on sat night....my internet better bloody be working by then. Please no spoilers in the forums! I like Jose but I'm hoping Conor backs up his mouth. It'd just be embarrassing to see him get whooped.
