Dude, the UFC is a matter of skilled fighters. When both fighters are highly skilled, of course weight matters. However, you sound like a dumbass arguing that weight makes skill completely irrelevant. I'm over 6' around 220. Nate Diaz would kick my arse. Hell, Rousey would scare the hell out of me and could certainly catch me, because I'm not a skilled fighter.

Again, skilled fighter =/= your gym bros. I'm sure your gym bros have legit triceps, though.

Lulz at the Diaz lovers. He was complety out classed. Stupid mistakes and lack of cardio lost this fight. The better fighter lost tonight.
You bought into a fairytale. Every fighter can get caught or beat. If Conor rematches Aldo he might very well lose that one too. He caught Aldo in the first fight but he might not be that lucky the next time.

You're right, I don't train with Patrick Willis. he would break Rhonda in a matter of seconds.

I have never seen a single person say she would whip Patrick Willis. Carry on Captain Strawman.

No doubt. Aldo let emotions get the best of him and went full retard to start that fight. McGoober's trash talk works on the shorter guys at 145 because they let themselves fall into fighting his game and he uses that extra 6 inches of reach to out point them. Aldo is the perfect example.
At 155, he will see guys with his length and weight that he can't overpower. I expect to see him back at 145 looking like death for the next couple of fights.

McGregor's reputation is forever tarnished as an elite unstoppable fighter. That is what happens when you lose to an average fighter like Diaz. His run was short lived.

Diaz has been one of the best fighters in the LW division for years. I wouldn't call him average as much as inconsistent

Ya considering diaz fought for belt 4 fights ago im shocked at the average talk

Yeah. Her completely inability to even move him is just funny. He basically isn't even really fighting.

that exact argument was made on this board a few weeks ago, & I believe he supported it. I'm not going to look it up, and I'm sorry if that wasn't him. I would extend my argument past Patrick Willis,though, just for the record.

Skilled fighter? LOL. Yeah. But it ain't like he's fighting in those videos. She couldn't even move his arse.
It was like watching a monkey try to get an elephant to move.
He wasn't even REMOTELY "fighting" or "using his skill".

I've seen people on THIS board say she could whip an NFL defensive end because she's "trained"

Before last night's fight Nate Diaz was 8-8 in his last 16 fights. That is as average as it gets.

Exactly. Nate and Nick's only shortcoming is when they fight a world-class wrestler or grappler who can keep the fight from standing for too long.
And both have fought in the VERY best promotions. Nate has fought nothing but top 20 guys, in the UFC not Cage Warriors in Ireland, for a decade.

That's comical, but she would probably beat the shite out of someone like Steph Curry

They are. I'm willing to bet they walk around within 5 pounds of each other.
