Rogan doesn't like Aldo

 

[Suxnet]

Well, I have to eat crow on Connor. That was unbelievable!

Weidman on the other hand, I was right about. He never really impressed me.

 

[Gret99zky]

Aldo says, "It wasn't really a fight."

No. It was a one punch knockout.

And you lost.

Hopefully Connor makes him stew for a while. Simmer.

Rogan doesn't like Aldo

Aldo came off like a joke there. He just got KO'ed legitimately and he's standing there bawling his eyes out begging for a rematch.

 

[Frank the Tank]

So do the Conor haters think he needs to fight Frankie now to be legit, or has he officially backed up his talk and can move up to 155 if so inclined?

I like McGregor and I also think a champ needs to defend his belt to affirm his position as champ. So Edgar seems like a logical next opponent. That being said, McGregor is a whole new tier of money for the UFC so I'm sure he will get extra leeway on picking his next opponent. Money talks.

Aldo is a great fighter but he didn't fight that much during his reign in the UFC.

Not a hater, but I'd like to see Frankie get a shot just cause I like Frankie.

Same here, Wiedman is over rated IMO..he's tough with good wrestling... though he got exposed tonight but his foot work is terrible and he doesn't have the speed.

As for Aldo I slightly picked him to win tonight, pretty shocking it ended so fast. Can't wait for Edgar vs Mcgregor.

 

[Frank the Tank]

Rogan doesn't like Aldo

Like I tell my son, win like a man AND lose like a man. Otherwise, one risks looking like Aldo did there.

 

[Peasy]

**** what an out come but such a shame it happened in 13 secs... An entire year for 13 seconds. Dana wanted to give his pet Ronda an immediate rematch but since he doesn't have a hard on for Aldo he won't do that. You could even tell by the way Joe Rogan was saying it wouldn't happen.

 

[member 51464]

Yeah, I'd like to see the Frankie fight too. Frankie seems like a good dude, and it'd be lame to see him fight Aldo (or whoever) for the belt if Conor vacated it to move up a weight class. So, I guess maybe that last fight in Spring. Either Frankie shocks the world or Conor calls it good at that weight.

Who would you all like to see Conor fight at 155?

 

[MD thaivuN]

Conor Mcgregor so became the real life One Punch Man

If McGregor moves up, they have to do champ fights champ. That's where the UFC makes the most money.

Big Connor fan, but I want him to fight the best before he moves up. Edgar imo is the best behind Aldo at that weight class (Though I'd argue that he's better than Aldo). If Connor get's by him, he should move up.

Give him Cowboy or Pettis. If he wins then give him a shot at the champ.

 

[canucksfan]

Had a feeling it would be a short fight but I thought Aldo would win

 

[Gret99zky]

Connor McGregor, walkin' the walk.

He talked and backed it up with his fists.

Love it.

Aldo can fight his way back. No need to rush the re-match.

 

[Heaton]

Aldo can fight his way back. No need to rush the re-match.

It would be ridiculous to give Rousey an immediate re-match and then not do the same for Aldo.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

It would be ridiculous to give Rousey an immediate re-match and then not do the same for Aldo.

Rousey is on the cover of a video game, Aldo isn't. UFC is a company and about income. Fact of the matter is that Rousey is a much bigger name in America than Aldo.

 

[TerminatorBlue]

I don't know, Connor is good but Lightweight is a murders row. Seeing what Chad Mendez did to Connor in the wrestling and looking at some of the guys like Nurmagomedov and Rafael dos Anjos it might not be smart to move up yet.

Though Pettis vs Mcgregor would be an epic fight.

People have been anticipating Aldo vs. McGregor for over a year, you don't think the re-match would draw more fans than McGregor vs. Edger or someone else? Funny enough, once Holm knocks out Rousey again, UFC might have to re-think their strategy.

 

[Gret99zky]

It would be ridiculous to give Rousey an immediate re-match and then not do the same for Aldo.

meh, it's not like Aldo didn't make McG wait for a while.

 

[Heaton]

You're talking like he did it on purpose.

 

[Gret99zky]

You're talking like he did it on purpose.

no, but he wasn't in any hurry.

he seemed to like how upset Connor was getting by having to wait and wait some more.

 

[chaosrevolver]

WTF is this??? F uuuuuuuuuuuuuu Aldo for wasting my time. Fking useless

Can no one holding a fking belt anymore? Fking damn it

Yeah the guy who hasn't lost since 2005 is useless and can't hold belts for long.

Props to McGregor..he did what he said he would do.

Not how I necessarily wanted to see it go down (wanted a longer fight) but McGregor stepped up.
