(Sorry no links phone sucks.)
So it's being posted everywhere that Rafael Dos Anjos has pulled out of the fight due to a broken foot. All sorts of people are clamouring about how he's a punk and how Conor got into the dude's head. Well either way, I hear they're looking for a replacment. Frankie Edgar can't take the fight (suprisingly) he's also injured. I've read Anthony Pettis, and even Donald Cerrone may be optional replacements. I would love for Nate Diaz to get a shot at him but wouldn't be suprised if the fight is scrapped all together. What's your guy's opinion on the situation. What do you think about RDA and who do you think ( if anyone at all) should replace him in the fight?

Damn... McGregor/Diaz is an OK fight - nowhere near as good as McGregor/Dos Anjos though. I HATE injuries!

I think if the Nate Diaz that beat Micheal Johnson shows up it could be a spectacular fight. I'm excited to watch, the amount of craptalk is gonna be huge. I hope Diaz pulls this off, he's definitely got the advantage on the ground with his Jui jitsu. He also may have a significant reach advantage, so if he utilizes it correctly and keeps the distance I can see Nate taking the W. 'Don't be scared homie' :-)

It just doesn't have that Champion Vs Champion luster that the RDA one had - and if McGregor wins or wins easily, people will just say Diaz wasn't properly prepared etc. Still, the trash-talking/hype between these two is going to be insane(!) - it's a shame we'll only be getting a couple of weeks worth.

McGregor is a badass, so he's up for the challenge obviously. Dos Anjos would've been the much better fight but from my (albeit limited!) knowledge of the UFC, Diaz wants to tear McGregor's head off. Should be a good fight.
