It's the same idea with how people want to see fighters that are on PEDs with their chiseled physiques

Rafael dos Anjos injured, out of UFC 196 main event fight against Conor McGregor - MMA Fighting

Quote:

According to multiple sources, dos Anjos suffered a broken foot late last week, forcing him to pull out of the lightweight title fight against McGregor. The UFC is currently working on finding a replacement to fight McGregor on less than two weeks' notice, however, nothing has been finalized at this time.

Good move pulling out EleGiggle

Let's see McGregor vs Robbie instead!

MarkyMark 02-23-2016 07:29 AM

For fuck sakes every time im super hyped for a fight someone gets hurt

murd0c 02-23-2016 08:02 AM

If Robbie did go in as replacement that would be beyond fucken crazy and awesome!!

SkinnyPupp 02-23-2016 08:04 AM

Plan was for Conor to call Robbie out after beating RDA and hold all 3 belts at once... As for this fight the best option looks like it may be Cowboy. That would be fun as hell, and a perfect opponent for Conor FeelsGoodMan

murd0c 02-23-2016 08:20 AM

two fights for Cowboy in less than two weeks would be darn impressive

MarkyMark 02-23-2016 08:22 AM

I wouldn't mind seeing Conor fight Pettis either as far as stylistic matchups go

murd0c 02-23-2016 08:29 AM

I don't see it really worth it for him fighting someone when its not for the belt, if he does lose there goes his lightweight title shot and massive payday!!

MarkyMark 02-23-2016 08:47 AM

People thought the same thing when he fought mendes after Aldo got hurt, but Conor doesn't duck anyone which is nice

RRxtar 02-23-2016 03:10 PM

conor doesnt duck anyone as long as the money is right.

i really don't want to see his hype train fed with another 2 week notice fill in tho

murd0c 02-23-2016 03:26 PM

Maybe he's going to be fighting Nate Diaz, that would be interesting and the smack talk would be great.

Derek_N84 02-23-2016 03:43 PM

+1 to Diaz vs McGregor :eek5::high:


GLOW 02-23-2016 03:45 PM

interim LW title fight with connor and cowboy, connor wins and trashes rda, and then unification fight where he KOs rda in 14 seconds. :badpokerface:

speaking of freak shows...

Any comment from Connor yet? I know it's going to be epic.

Berz out.

No.

Interim belts are stupid and completely lessen the prestige of being the actual champ.

murd0c 02-23-2016 07:28 PM

Oh shit I was right Conner vs Diaz!!

Love both fighters BibleThump

jonwon 02-23-2016 07:46 PM

wait hold up... welterweight?!

murd0c 02-23-2016 07:50 PM

That has to be a mistake

murd0c 02-23-2016 08:30 PM

Nope it's correct, so my buddy wants to bet me $100 Diaz is going to win... Hmm should I take it?

RRxtar 02-23-2016 08:42 PM

why the fuck would it be a WW bout against nate!? theres so many guys it coulda been against! wait, i know why. its because he got to pick his opponent, and he picked a recognizable name, whos not a wrestler. i guess when he wrecks nate, hes in line for a WW title shot...

hes going to wreck nate. and school the mumbling idiot in the trash talking too! i get to chear for conor because i hate nate so much! :alonehappy:

Who else did you want to see besides Nate at 170? Nate probably can't cut to 155 in a week.

Cowboy would have been at 170 as well

Frankie is injured, and that would have been at 155 so not a title fight

Aldo was the first one they called and he declined

No way is Conor making 145 any time soon

So if you were the booker and could override what you think is Conor's pick, who would you have chose? What's the big money short notice match?

Yeah let's throw a random 170 lbs wrestler at him, that'll do everyone good. Boring fight, doesn't draw a dime, Conor loses, with no championship implications

Thank god hardcore MMA fans aren't bookers EleGiggle

HonestTea 02-23-2016 09:50 PM

Aldo declined?
