Countdown to UFC 178: McGregor vs. Poirier

[Brent Smith]

He's not exaggerating about the pressure he brings. Brutal and relentless. I love him

I wanna see him against Nate or Cerrone.

You want him to go up a weight class?

[Ericp]

Poirier is gonna rape this fool. The Diamond is so much better than people think. McGregor is gonna get exposed for the fraud he is. War Poirier

[Brent Smith]

Poirier is good for sure. This is a big test for McGregor. I think Conor gets into Poirier's head and wins this before they even step in the cage.

[Brent Smith]

Lol well he did hold both the 155 and 145 Cage Rage belts at the same time.

Cage Warriors.
Poirier is a beast but I find it hard to believe he can deal with McGregors smooth in and out style, after the trouble he had dealing with Korean Zombies famous Zombie dash. (even though Zombie and McGregor are 2 completely different fighters)

[Brent Smith]

Same thing jeez!

[Keith Kavanagh]

My picks are Zingano (TKO), Kennedy (Sub), McGregor (by TKO), Cerrone (by 50,000 headkick), Johnson (by decision).

This card is gonna be sweeeet.

Anyone else count 2 for sure and arguably 3 illegal head strikes in a row by Connor on Porier?

I think that's a bit harsh. It's tough when the opponent has their face on the floor and he adjusted to the other side when Poirier turned. Tough situation when you're desperately looking for the finish and the opponent is face down and turning a little. Great fight either way.
