UFC: HUGE UPSETS!!! Both McGregor and Holm get submitted

[Hector]

Big upsets...Nate Diaz submits Connor McGregor in the 2nd round...and Meisha Tate rear choke holds Holy Holm in the fifth round round.

I love upsets...

[Mego Milk]

HA!
No point of Ronda's rematch with Holly now.

[Marvelmania]

So glad Conner finally got shut up! Yes he jumped 2 weight classes but hey they was on him, his decision. Diaz came in at the last moment almost without any training camp and still took care of Conner. He rocked Diaz a few times but still once Diaz mounted him it was over! I didn't surprise me as much as Holly getting submitted.

McGregor fought hard. He sure didn't look 170 in the fight at 5'7. I'm 5'8 and 175 and I wouldn't look like that if I lost 5 pounds.

Thanks for the spoiler in the header. I had it taped.

[Mr.Marion]

^^^ yeah seriously Hector. As a longtime time fight fan you should know better than that. Considering live PPV is $50 some of us can only watch the online replays. Did you also walk out of Empire in 1980 telling people in line, Darth Vader was Luke's father?

[Hector]

Who in their right mind pays $50 and watches it later?

Oh, and both of you posted eight hours after the fight? You still expected this to be a secret? Maybe if you had posted last night, maybe...

Sorry, after a live sporting event is over (like posting, Broncos win the Super Bowl!)...it's no longer a secret, it must be reported...as it was all over both TV and Internet. If you really don't want to find out...watch your recording before you turn on the computer or watch any sporting channel. This was not a movie or a book...this was a live sporting event that passed and became news.

You didn't pay for the PPV, yet still didnt wannabe surprised because you still wanted to watch it for free later online?

Come on, bro...

The differences in both fights...Diaz did get tagged and cut in the first round, but didn't get hurt, he took the punches well, as you said, weight differences were obvious. Then in the second round, Diaz landed one hard punch, and McGregor got rocked and started back peddling. It was the start of the beginning of the end. In the post interview, Diaz said that when McGregor started the takedown out of desperation, he said to himself referring to McGregor, "Oh, you are a wrestler now, eh?" And that was it, lol.

Holly Holm dominated that fight, was winning 3-1, and was winning the fifth and last round...got careless, and Tate managed to apply the choke hold in the last 20 seconds of the fight.

Despite all the trash talking, McGregor was gracious in defeat.

Good stuff!

I'd say they make the most by having Rhonda vs holly with the winner getting a shot at the title.

[Hector]

That would be cool, but I think Dana White wants an immediate rematch between Tate and Holm...because Ronda can't fight until October at the earliest. You know White, it's all about the money.

Edited 'cause yer not worth it bud.

[Hector]

I'm not worth it? Just because of this?

[Hector]

Game just ended, the Lakers upset the Warriors, 112-95!!!!!!!!!!

Oh wait...

[Hector]

To squash this...next time I'll post a SPOILER WARNING, even if it's after a live sporting events.

Okay?
