McGregor then moved up in weight for a pair of blockbuster matchups with Nate Diaz that saw him set a new mark for UFC pay-per-view buys when he defeated Diaz in the rematch last August.
After dispatching Diaz, McGregor set his sights on history as he headlined at Madison Square Garden against lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez. McGregor put on a striking clinic against Alvarez knocking him down five times before getting the second round knockout and adding the lightweight title to his featherweight world title, becoming the first UFC fighter to ever hold two belts concurrently.

Tom, Tony en Rich het 'n onderhoud gevoer met 'n opkomende Vegas-afrigter in Vegas wat begin waai met sy amateur- en pro-leerlinge. Richard Barrientes doen natuurlik 'n uitstekende werk met sy studente, en ons moes weet wat sy geheim was. Hy wys na “konsekwentheid” en “grondbeginsels” as die grondslag vir 'n groot vegter, en hy doen ook elke dag baie werk om sy Las Vegas Pond in te sit 4 Pond-gimnasium op 'n groot manier op die wêreldverhoog. Dit was 'n fantastiese onderhoud met 'n man wat natuurlik baie omgee vir die sport en 'n positiewe impak op die samelewing wil hê. Sy harde werk het vrugte afgewerp om hom 'n groep kinders te gee wat toekomstige wêreldkampioene in hul onderskeie afdelings kon word. Hy is inderdaad, iets reg doen in Las Vegas, en hy verduidelik alles oor sy program in hierdie onderhoud.

Tom, Tony en Rich het ook Mayweather vs.. McGregor, Tim Hague se onlangse dood na 'n wrede nederlaag in boks, Die vroulike bokser Heather Hardy se pro MMA-debuut vir Bellator, en Matt Hughes’ tragiese ongeluk in die eerste deel van die uitsending.

Psychic Tom Predicts Win For Mark Hunt; Rabble Rousin’ Rich Opens the Show with Demetrious Johnson vs. Dana White Rant; Tony the Tornado rips Stevenson/Fonfara on this week’s FNU Combat Sports Show

Skryf 'n opmerking

Rich Bergeron opens this week’s FNU Combat Sports show by giving his unique take on the Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson feud with the UFC brass, namely Dana White. Upon refusing to take a fight with T.J. Dillashaw without getting certain assurances and conditions met, many fans on social media insisted DJ was running scared. Even Dillashaw took the opportunity to blast the move by the flyweight champ as “chickenshit.” Dana White even reportedly threatened to shut down the entire flyweight division if Johnson refused to fight TJ. “Mighty Mouse” didn’t blink and didn’t cave to the organization’s demands, and Rich explains in his opening dialogue why DJ should be respected and given the benefit of the doubt for his decision rather than being criticized and dragged through the mud for standing up for himself.

 

During the rest of the broadcast, Tony “Die Tornado” Penecale details his night out at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia for a fight card headlined by Hank Lundy. He also recaps Fonfara vs. Stevenson II and calls the fight “a disgrace.”

 

“Psigiese” Tom Padgett chips in with some post-fight analysis of Aldo vs. Holloway. He also predicts Mark Hunt will benefit from home cage advantage in his battle with Derrick Lewis this weekend at UFC Fight Night 110 in New Zealand.

 

There’s also an update on Hunt’s lawsuit against the UFC and Brock Lesnar and lots of other fight previews and recaps. Listen to the whole broadcast to catch up on what’s new in combat sports this week.
