A lot is riding on this fight for both Diaz and McGregor. With a full training camp, Diaz looks absolutely fantastic
And to the winner will go the spoils.
If Diaz wins, he can finally move on from the McGregor chapter of his career and chase even bigger fights back down at lightweight. It’s no stretch he can even challenge newly crowned UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley.
As for McGregor, win or lose, UFC President Dana White said he will be back down at 145-lbs. again to defend his featherweight belt against Jose Aldo, the interim UFC featherweight champion.
McGregor is always in great shape, but he’s going to have to use his quickness to offset the size disadvantage
A lot is riding on this fight, so Diaz coming in looking absolutely massive should come as no surprise.
With the fight less than a week away, excitement is at a fever pitch. And in just a few days, the intensity is set to escalate rather quickly, for the biggest fight in MMA this year.
