AxB Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 So, what are the odds Conor's doing Dancing With the Stars pretty soon? Because it looks like he'd walk it. And, y'know, mainstream exposure. Weidman is training at a gym called Weidman/ Longo. What happened to Matt Serra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WholeFnMachine Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 So, what are the odds Conor's doing Dancing With the Stars pretty soon? Because it looks like he'd walk it. And, y'know, mainstream exposure. Weidman is training at a gym called Weidman/ Longo. What happened to Matt Serra? Chris partnered with Ray and what was Ray Longo MMA became Longo And Weidman (LAW) MMA. Matt still owns and teaches at both the Serra BJJ Academies on Long Island and it is still known as the Serra-Longo Fight Team. Obviously Matt still handles the BJJ aspect of training all the fighters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterien Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 All this movement training and balancing on poles that Ido Portal(?)has McGregor doing is going to look pretty f'n stupid if Aldo destroys him on Saturday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 Looking forward to everyone taking it upon themselves to learn the teachings of Ido Portal should he win. So, what are the odds Conor's doing Dancing With the Stars pretty soon? Because it looks like he'd walk it. And, y'know, mainstream exposure. If he makes outrageous demands to the Zuffa brass (ex. a $100 million contract), then he will doing Dancing with the Stars and whatever it is that is not fighting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Conor's thoughts on routine and repetition were interesting. Also found it strange that he was chewing gum. Doesn't that make you hungry and wouldn't that be the last thing you want when cutting weight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 Both of them seem a little restless and without a ton of energy. I'm assuming it's the weight cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterien Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Rockhold and Weidman looked pretty calm, Rockhold looked a tad tetchy near the end though. EDIT; After watching all the UFC Embedded series (so far)and the presser, I've a bad feeling Aldo is going to murder McGregor and i really really want McGregor to win.

Jiji Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Awesome article detailing how McGregor could beat Aldo on Bloody Elbow. But even in the article that's describing how Conor could win, the author points out one of his key strategies for victory is something A: Conor's never done and B: something Aldo does better than anybody else in MMA.

TheVileOne Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 I try not to get too hung up on fight analysis because it's always possible and seems to happen quite often that the fight will go the exact opposite. Case in point, Rousey vs. Holm. I'm just going ahead and picking Rockhold for this weekend. He's the biggest underdog I feel strongly could win the title.

Elsalvajeloco Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 I thought Rousey-Holm was going to go one of two ways and what actually happened was something I don't think most people could even imagine. For me, this week is a bit different because I just think a lot of the stuff that probably should happen and most people think will happen in most of these fights won't happen. Just a gut feeling really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a good article. But Bloody Elbow still sounds like a guy with a lot of aches and pains trying to get out of bed. Ooh, my fucking neck. Aah, my bastard knees. Eugh, my sodding back. Fuck, my bloody elbow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 Weidman and Villante need their own reality show. I've tentatively titled it "Hangin' With My Bro". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Let's seem them doing hula hoops like that Key and Peele skit . Also, someone should cast Matt Serra and Ray Longo in a mobster movie. They are like larger than life, almost like the mobsters from The Simpsons. great analysis by Dan Hardy of Aldo/McGregor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted December 12, 2015 Author Share Posted December 12, 2015 It's no wonder McGregor wants to move up with the IV ban. He seriously looks like a different person. Like he sent his sibling or cousin to weigh-in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
