It's a classic volume/activity versus damage dealt decision. I'm going Spider, although Bisping showed a lot of heart (Like he usually does) .
He took that kick to the face in the fifth like a champ.
So, how bad does McGregor crush Diaz? Diaz is a nutcase and has a strong chin, but talent wise I don't think it's all that close. Could be a bloodbath.

The biggest problem with this fight is Diaz accepting to fight on short notice. He basically has no chance. That being said Diaz can be dangerous to anyone. He and his brother have the best boxing in mma but the short notice? Not good... Not good for Diaz.

Let's dispel the fact that Nick Diaz has the best boxing in MMA. He got outboxed by GSP.
I miss GSP
Call me insane, but I thought Nick was GSP's most competitive opponent before Hendricks. I know that Condit almost finished GSP, but GSP fairly easily dominated 98% of that fight. I thought GSP really struggled to find any confort zone and had to work uber hard in almost any position to the point he gassed in the 3rd round.

Real ***** ass move from Conor punching Diaz's hand like that.
Was more of a slap...that Diaz didn't see coming...and really, you're going to call Connor out on it?? Diaz can come in and put his arms up like he's about to fight with his hand pretty much touching Connor's face but that's okay?
Yeah, "slap"
It's square off, putting your hand up like that is nothing too out of the norm. It was a ***** move and shouldn't be defended.
Conor should be fined for the incident, real dumb thing to do three days before the fight.
