Comments Thread For: Nate Diaz on McGregor: Bruce Lee Would've Never Lost Like That!

[TheBigLug]

Bruce Lee wouldn't have lost because they would have said "cut" and then "action" again.

He was an actor.

I kind of lean towards Diaz here. After all that crap McG and his fans were talking, he got carried, walked down, and stopped by a 40 year old, brittle handed Floyd who was on the couch for 2 years. I'm not up for giving particpation points. Go back to your sport and continue your career.

Yeah I agree. Mayweather hoodwinked ignorant, casual MMA and Boxing fans alike. Funny it being a UFC guy that's making sense.

Diaz can't take leg kicks well + doesn't go for takedowns enough. To me Diaz is like a hardheaded kid who doesn't take the best road to his success out of spite almost lol. If Diaz went for more takedowns & worked on taking cats down more his record would have 6 or 7 less L's probably. The guy is a f#cking ninja, but just wants to box lol. And he's not a great boxer by any means in the UFC. He's been outboxed numerous times including vs McGregor. Its so f#cking dumb.

I don't hate his chances, but I'd f#cking love his chances & would hate Conor's if Nate fought in a way that highlighted his skills which are on the ground.

I can't speak intelligently on MMA. I don't really follow sport. I was referencing Diaz's stance on all this Conor praise, not his chances to win in the 3rd fight. LOL. I hope it happens though. Many people seem interested.

Karceno is nuts. The UFC is pissed at Khabib. Dude has almost died over weight cutting bs more than once now.

Although honestly I'm starting to think that might be the most winnable fight with him in the UFC. Diaz seems to be able to compete with him & if he just kept it turned on more + actually attempted more takedowns & gotten one he'd be up 2-0 now to Conor. Kevin Lee gots like 3 or 4 RNC wins in a row & 2 of Conor's L's have been due to RNC's. Tony Ferguson is a beast on the ground to & has a bunch of choke W's. Ferguson or Lee will definitely beat Conor if they get a takedown with more than a minute left in the round.

Meanwhile Khabib has one of the most bs resumes of a top 2 contender with like 1 or 2 real fights on his record which is insane in the UFC has usually you need to find your way through a murderers row of contenders. Its uncommon for a guy even to make a title run successfully without a L in the UFC.

I agree Panda, I think Khabib is highly overrated but Conor would beat him and people would jump all over his nuts. I actually envision Conor beating Khabib like he beat Alvarez. Conor isnt great on the ground but he has enough to get him through the 1st 2rds and slow Khabibs assault down and catch him coming in.

Ferguson has a big gas tank and has the height and reach. Lee has the height and reach on Conor too, IDK about the gas tank though.

And you are right about Diaz, both the Diaz bros have GREAT jits but choose to **** and dont like to evolve. Going punch for punch with Conor is dumb in the cage, dirty boxing grinding him against the cage is how you beat him.

Lee has the height and reach on Conor too, IDK about the gas tank though.

Lee claims he's a 5 rd fighter & he only gets better the deeper a fight goes. I'm not sold on his gas tank either, but I don't believe its worse than Conor's which is all it'd need to be in that fight. Like the 2 guys running from a bear joke (you don't need to be quicker then the bear just quicker then the other guy).

LOL Nate Diaz is f#cking hilarious. Looking forward to McGregor vs Diaz III.

IF the UFC can come up with enough money for Nate to accept the fight anyway. Between the rise Conor will want + the money Diaz will request it wouldn't shock me if this fight is unmakeable & they just throw Conor at the Oct. 7 interim title winner who'll cook his ass if they get him on the ground.

What fight are you referring to on the 7th? I thought Kevin Lee and Tony Ferguson were going to throw down in Detroit on Dec. 2nd.

Nope its Oct. 7 @ T-Mobile.

Woulda liked to see Lee get to fight in Michigan doe.

[hugh grant]

Im sure if Bruce and Floyd walked earth at same time I'm sure Floyd would loved too have met Bruce.
They would have sparred with Floyd saying how awesome Bruce was

Damn, guess I won't be going to that card now lol was going to fly home for that

[Lemonhead_Jeff]

Bruce Lee would NEVER have quit like that!
...and neither would He-Man, Mighty Mouse, or Speedy Gonzales. Because they were not competitive fighters.
Bruce Lee was the Albert Einstein of martial arts theory.
Comparing Bruce Lee to Conor McGregor is like comparing Albert Einstein to the guy who changes your oil at Meineke.
