This year has been bad for champions, they are all falling left and right. Although I dont see anybody defeating Demetrious Johnson and Joanna Jedrzejczyk anytime soon.

Can Conor beat Nate? I think Nate will take it again! Conors good but needs to stay in his weight class!

Conor landed the cleaner shots and had impressive knockdowns. He deserved the decision.

Once Nate was getting leg kicked, he needed to alter his gameplan and use his weight against Conor and grapple more.

Nates better in the clinch fighting and shouldve kept bringing the fight into that territory. When Nate finally brought it down, he was clearly doing more damage but too late.

All credit to Mcgregor because he was dwarfed in size...it looked like 2 different weight classes were fighting, Nate probably hydrated to about 185...fight of the year for me.
Nate as big as he was could take the shots and his kill or be killed makes a nightmare for Connor.

Love Conor, and it's pretty awesome that he has both belts. Having said that, it becomes less impressive if he doesn't ever defend the belts. I think he needs to rematch Aldo, and beat him again then vacate the belt at 145. 155 will be his natural fighting division now, I don't see him doing much serious fighting at 170. Although, if he picks up the belt at 170 then he's a serious contender for GOAT I think.

Absolutely! I even find his loss to Nate as a reason to admire him because he didn't shy away from the fight and went out there gave it his all. Not only that, but he lost and immediately wanted to get back in there with him.

The precision in those four shots that put Eddie away was awesome! I rewound that and watched it I don't know how many times.
