Maaan, who’s pumped for Saturday? I’m just as excited for the Michael Chandler UFC debut as I am for the McGregor/Porier rematch !

Love him or hate him, there's not much like a Conor fight. I do think Chandler will lose to Hooker convincingly though, i'm not too high on him. Hope i'm wrong though.

Fun fact: If Conor wins this fight, it will be his first win at lightweight since 2016. He is currently ranked #4 at lightweight by the UFC.

If Chandler loses what does that mean on the skill gap between Bellator and UFC? He's got a lot riding on this fight.

Let's go McGregor! Pound his head on the canvas!

People are counting out Dustin like he's the same Dustin from the fight 6-7 years ago.
Resumes speak for themselves, Dustin has been much more impressive the last 3 years. Conor hasn't done jack sh*t.
Yeah, I think Conor should be the favorite going in. But I would not be surprised at all if Dustin pulls it off, whereas I feel like most would.

I got Dustin by decision.

Side note, Umar Nurmagomedov looked very impressive in his UFC debut today. I've been looking forward to watching him in the UFC for a while now.

100%. Unfortunately a McGregor fight brings out the filthy casuals who don't even know who Dustin is.

Dustin has to survive the initial onslaught and make it ugly like Diaz did. He has the cardio and the heart to do the same thing Nate did.

Dustin is good, Conor is great.

The only way Conor doesn't finish him early is if something weird happens.

Don't like Conor, but i think he wins. Dustin's nerves will get the best of him.

Chandler is pretty damn explosive, I pick him over Hooker.
