    Its true about Cerrone as well, if Cerrone wanted it and was able why didnt they give him it, he was the last guy to fight Dos Anjos, he had just fought 2 weeks before so is probably in the best shape out of anyone and thats who McGregor would have been fighting anyway if Cerrone had won the fight before.

    Diaz I think is quite pointless. Like Celtic supposed to be playing Barcelona in a friendly but they pull out and Liverpool say they will play us but we opt to play Bournemouth instead.

    It could be said that it wasn't that long ago that Diaz completely outclassed Cerrone though. Plus, he looked phenomenal in his last fight.

    They definetly gave him the safer fight , but Diaz isn't a scrub . He beat Cerrone not that long ago..... And it wasn't close.

    Not even close.

    It's like Celtic going to play Aberdeen in a Scottish Cup Final and Aberdeen pulling out and being replaced by the Huns.

    The Huns didn't earn or deserve it but there will be more aggro, more interest and it will be a more aggressive and bigger spectacle. It's just that the Cup isn't up for grabs anymore.

    Cerrone is to Diaz as Liverpool is to Bournemouth? :smiley-laughing002:

    Diaz is better than Cerrone imo, and he proved it not too long ago. He also gave RDA a (slightly) better fight even though he was way out of shape and taking the * with his camp.

    You just know for a fact they are both at it. McGregor known for coming the * with time and Diaz definitely calling that bluff!

    Should be on in 5.
