What time is Conor McGregor’s fight against José Aldo at UFC 194?

“I wasn’t lying when I said I had a hell of a lot of adversity to overcome [last time]”, said McGregor, for whom this is likely to be his last fight at featherweight before a planned move up to the lightweight division. This fight has been brewing for over a year and fans from all over the world will have their eyes glued to the TV or computer screen to see what happens when the brash Irish fighter collides with the legend from Brazil.

“It will be on him – where he is mentally and physically, how much he truly wants it. I see him crumbling toward the end of the first round or not answering the call for the second, but it will be wrapped up inside one”. I’m going to embarrass Jose in there.

“In those days, even if I won, I was supposed to pretend that it was by accident”, Sitenkov said.

The fight is expected to be one of the biggest in the history of the UFC, and will unify the interim belt, which McGregor holds, with the featherweight championship belt held by Aldo. I believe that’s what Conor will do.

Other than expletives in response to McGregor’s antics during their world media tour in spring, Aldo’s main line on McGregor has been that he is a joker and a fake champion.

The two had to be separated at the weigh-in on Friday night, with UFC President Dana White stepping in to prevent the two from starting the fight about 24 hours early.

“I think it’s going to be an electric atmosphere”, McGregor said.

Historically, when a longtime UFC champ drops the belt, an immediate rematch is offered.

Rockhold, on the other hand, got his title shot after decisively beating former light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida in April.

He says it’s more a matter of getting more comfortable in the spotlight. A draw would dampen the occasion somewhat but can be backed as big as 80/1, but the safest bet is probably either fighter to win via knockout or technical knock-out at 4/9.

Yet the Irishman’s eventual earnings for the fight could come in way over the $1m mark once revenues from ticket sales and pay-per-view purchases are distributed. “I don’t pretend to be anything else”, he explained. After that, I gained experience. “But know the one that’s one too many, and look out for each other!!” “I work hard, and I just want to show my true potential and show myself how good I am”. There will be four Fox Sports 1 Prelims from 8 p.m. ET, and the main card, which features Chris Weidman vs Luke Rockhold as well as Aldo vs McGregor, has a start time of 10 p.m. ET, with the top of the bill fight taking place around midnight.
