When will they learn?

They fight for a living. Which means they have learning disabilities.

I find it funny, just before the second round starts you can hear and see McGregor saying "i can go all day" "all day long i go" then he say's in the post fight interviews that he had bad energy control and lost his energy. Maybe he was talking shit to get into Diaz's head, who knows.

Who looks sadder?  LOL.  By all accounts McG became a millionaire from one fight.  Why did all those people pay for PPV?  It was to see Conor either get beat or win.  They didn't pay to see old monosyllabic doper Diaz.  Yeah, Conor is sad all the way to the bank.

I paid to watch Conor vs Diaz, I wasn't going to watch it with RDA. I've loved mma for a long time and know the sport very well, both Diaz brothers are fan favorites because they are fun to watch. Nate Diaz is one of the biggest draws on the Fox cards.

Tbh, everyone hoped for some banter during the fight, pushing after round end and overall drama.
Both are known for talking during the fight... they didn't deliever

They were talking, but there was no mic near, probably wouldn't be audible anyway.

To be fair... that cocky Irish idiot didn't last long enough for these kind of things to develope properly

Worst part is I bet 5 dollars on him, so I have to win it back, somehow.

Bet all your money on the GOAT Jon Jones for UFC 197

Take a look at why Nick Denis retired from MMA.

Also, it seemed like everyone I was watching the fight with suddenly liked MacGregor more because of how he took the loss, publicly.

I don't think McGregor took the loss all too well. He had some shitty excuses, like the "heavier man" thing. Both him and Nick Diaz are lightweights without a water cut, and Nick came in fat at the weigh in. Nick wasn't the heavier man. And he didn't really move up two divisions either for the same reason, they were both fighting at their walking around weight. Fighters in the 170 division walk around at 185-190+.

He didn't mean Nate was heavier than him.
He meant that he's used that people in featherweight/lightweight fall from such hits he had thrown, while a heavier man like Diaz could take them, which Conor didn't expect.

Maybe, it sounded like he was implying Diaz was heavier than him in one of the things he said, but I guess it could be either way. Diaz brothers are known for their good chins, so it really shouldn't have come as a surprise.

Either way, Conor is the most entertaining fighter in the UFC right now, with his agile always-finishing fighting style. He needs to fix the holes in his games, biggest of which are: lack of jab, lack of lead hook, lack of orthodox stance even when in trouble, lack of Muay Thai style leg kicks, and his tendency to block shots with his chin. Regardless of what some people say, it has yet to be proven that ground is a problem for him.

[Golem]

Woah, Jon Jones acts, speaks and even looks(when you take away the fact that he's black and ripped) just like my father's brother. Gotta bet and hope he'll win me back those 5 bucks + some extra would be nice!

If you ask me, I think Conor would cry like a bitch and made all sorts of crazy excuses, if Ido wasn't there, to talk sense into him.
