What a weekend of action coming up!

I'm even contemplating Fight Pass tonight.

I'm going McGregor & Weidman.

Not sure about Mendes/Edgar...

All I know is we should be in for some great fights!

Just seen the 194 Weigh-Ins are live on BTS2HD @ 2300 tomorrow night...

I wouldn't bet against him, but it's all hypothetical he'll never do it for real, maybe some kind of exhibition bks if the money is good enough, for all the problems a Cain Valasquez or Werdum could give Fury they wouldn't fancy his movement, hand speed and size.

They'd have him on his backside with the first kick to his thin legs.

Conor is looking sharp!

I love you baby was class

[mikebradford]

I just watched the full Q&A , the Irish fans made it hilarious

Several great moments but the f@#k Isis moment was classic

Hope McGregor gets his arse handed to him tonight, it's long overdue.

[RJames]

Yep staying up for this also!

I want McGregor to win but I think he needs to get it done fairly fast (first two rounds) with his pure speed and explosive power, otherwise I think Aldo's experience will start to play a larger part.

From looking back on Aldo's fights he looks like he can take quite some punishment and that will be the ultimate test for McGregor.

I really hope he is KO'd in the first round. He's a good fighter no doubt but I hate all the mouthy bullst personally.
Considering Mendes never really had time to train to fight him, he very nearly kicked his ass. I think and hope Aldo will walk all over him.

Great early prelims and prelims so far.

Yup. Personally hope the gobshoite gets Rousey'd

[Petrolhead95]

Romero looks like an absolute tank.
