Nate Diaz steps in - McGregor fight at 170!!

[Eastcoast]

Where does Nate go from here? I know 155 is his best weight, but as he already lost to RDA is there a chance he gets a shot at Lawler next?

Nate will likely fight Eddie Alvarez next, RDA will take the winner of Nurmagomedov/Ferguson. Nate & Eddie nearly came to blows at the Mexico show.

GSP was at the show unexpectedly last night. He might be looking to be the main event vs Lawer at 200.

I dont see that this fight has any bearing at all on Diaz's ww status. First of all he beat a non-legit ww and his win isn't that convincing at all.

Nate Diaz was the underdog

How does crow taste? #Wardiaz

? I hate Mcgregor. But lets be real. Any fight on one weeks notice is a sideshow. Nate looked really bad until he won. He was very sharp with a full camp last fight. Like he said he doesn't get touched with a real camp.

At 170 pounds this could backfire on Conor. Nate loves stand up and Conor is going to oblige but the problem is that at 170 pounds one wonders if Conor will carry his KO power up and if he can take multiple punches from a 170 pounder.

Conor is accustomed to always having a massive size and reach advantage. That advantage will be gone. The extra weight should also means he will be somewhat slower than usual. Don't be surprised if you see Nate outbox Conor...

The fight went off as I expected it. The only reason it ended in a submission is because Conor initiated a takedown when he couldn't handle the standup in round 2.

The Diaz Bros are the best thing that ever happened to Dana White. Look at all their stars that have come and gone but the Diaz bros are still around and get great ratings. When the Diaz brothers have a reach advantage on their opponents they win, no way does Conor want to go to the ground with Diaz either, that Cesar Gracie Jiu Jitsu combined with long limbs would be a nightmare for Conor. Im going with the homie from Stockton by surprise TKO or submission. #WARDIAZ #stocktonmotherf'er

Props to you two.
