Cerrone looked incredible......total domination

I agree, he looks fantastic at 170. In a post fight interview he said he only has to cut 5 pounds, which i imagine lets him be a little fresher for the fight. His striking power seems to have transferred over as well, where with some guys it falls off when they move up i.e: Conny Mac.

Cerrone is one of my favorite fighters and I really think hes poised to make a run in the welterweight division.

Only saw the ending. He looks like a mini-Overeem at 170.

I dont think Conors power got worse, its more so that Nate has a tremendous chin

wonderboy vs. mcdonald was kindda disappointing. good fight, but both were hesitant to make a move for most of the fight.

Fair point, Nate has one of the sturdiest chins in the fight game. I was just trying to use an example of somebody that was starching dudes at a lower weight class and then wasn't able to do that in a heavier division, Conor probably wasn't the best choice to use as an example of that though.

I can think of a lot of adjectives to describe that fight but boring isn't anywhere near that list. That was a primal war of a fight. If high level bjj is your thing I could see where it may not be your cup of tea but it seems like any fan of the UFC could acknowledge that those two dudes gave everything in that cage and beat the bloody hell out of each other along the way.

They fought twice. The 1st one was rather uneventful

The 1st fight. Apologies for not adding that in there when I posted.

that is true. had to look it up since i couldn't even remember the first fight, so probably right about it being boring then.
