I still can't believe Jose F'ing Aldo is the underdog.
I got in with $200 when he was +150, the odds have since tightened a bit, but he's still +130. Yes, he CAN lose, Conor has a deadly left, but ****ing christ, this is scarface we're talking about, he hasn't lost a fight in over 10 God Damned years, so why do people think he is more likely to lose? |

An Asian fight promotion based in South Korea (Road FC) is jumping into the bidding for Benson Henderson. They stated publicly that they would pay him $200,000 per fight. He was making 48/48 (plus $15,000 from Reebok) with the UFC.

He's really not even making 200k per fight? That's crazy. |

lol, Conor said that after he KO's Aldo (in the first round), he wants to fight the winner of RDA/Cowboy to become the champion of two weight classes.

The winner of McGregor vs Aldo will be on the cover of next year's EA UFC game

The UFC talked business with Ronda this week (they usually wait a few weeks to let fighters mentally recover), and Dana confirmed today that Rousey will have an immediate rematch with Holly Holm. Date is not yet known, but I'd bet a decent amount of money that it'll be UFC 200.

edit: I think the Irish accent helps his likability a lot. If he had some tough-guy New York demeanor people might not like it as much, but we can't get enough of this angry confident Irish dude. Last edited by alnorth; 12-04-2015 at 08:45 PM.. |

On the outside he does look to be getting into Aldo's head. Some of the shit Aldo lets him get away with without even a response is questionable.

Aldo is now at +115! At this rate, the fight will be a toss-up by the time John McCarthy yells "let's get it on!".
Feeling real good about jumping in big when Aldo was at +150. Again, yes, McGregor can win he's a very special and unique striker, but it looks like a lot of smart money has been flowing to Aldo lately. |

Some of Ronda Rousey's teeth were knocked loose in her fight, and she says she may need 6 months to heal.

This reminds me of Silva after the Weidman fight. You could tell Silva just didn't want to fight him again, and I don't think Rousey wants Holm for the second time either. |
