UFC 196: Watch Conor McGregor Surprise Super Fan at His Apartment

March 01 20:01 2016

Possible disadvantages in the distance and power departments aside, McGregor seems to enjoy his newly found weight category, as he revealed in the first episode of UFC 196 Embedded.

Over the weekend, MMA Crazy TV asked the fighters who fought on the UFC Fight Night 84 card about who they think will win. Either way, the guy is a Diaz and you know he’s going to bring it. I’m expecting an entertaining scrap that should be preceded by some one-liners and profane diatribes in the last-minute promotional push. I’m sure that is all going to change as the camps settle into their Las Vegas routines this week, but I’m a little disappointed anyway. He’s pretty big and all of a sudden his jumping to 170? Perez said that McGregor took the accusation defensively instead of answering it straightforward.

“It’s not a cockfight where I go there and put my rooster to fight”, Aldo said. And now, if you can’t make the weight, it’s not his problem. So if you think about it, he was focusing on training at 155. But he got defensive and mad, you know, ‘I’m not on steroids, I’m not on steroids!’ You know, he was like trying to defend himself.

However, the Dubliner has still got time to show the fans just how much they mean to him. “And all of a sudden he’s gonna jump to 170?”

Aldo suffered a loss to McGregor in 13 seconds this past December, knocking him from a perch atop the 145-pound division that he sat in since the UFC chose to begin promoting such fights. “Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying he’s not, but Nathan’s better”.
