Am I the only one getting tired of hearing White or McGregor brag about going up two weight classes?
Yes, on paper they fought at 170lbs. But this was a 155lb fight. I don't think it's fair to use that example. Conor weighed in at 168lbs and likely walked into the fight at the same weight.
If they were actually fighting at 170 with the cut at that weight, his opponent would have walked into the fight, re-hydrated to at least 185lbs. THAT would have been Conor fighting a man two classes up.
Nate just didn't have the time and prep to cut to 155.
So yes...on paper, they fought at 170. (insert Irish accent) "but make no mistake about it...this was a 155lb fight."
I wonder what diseased prick poor bred dumb cunts like you drip off the end of ?!

They are my two fav fighters right now I think so it was a win win for me.
Idiot 
Conor was going for Robbie, the willingness is the most important aspect.

The Raven52 - Conor was going for Robbie, the willingness is the most important aspect.That's a good point. I do commend him for the idea of fighting at 170. But this fight was two weight classes on paper. More of a catchweight fight for the 155lb division not doing a weight cut.
Weight class was irrelevant. He fought a fighter who weighed in the same as him and got his ass beat.

It was actually a catchweight fight at 177 against Rory Markham who missed weight.
Could have gone up to heavy weight. ....means little if you lose in less than 2 rounds.
I've read 5000 of these same threads, not 1.
Not sure how you don't understand that Conor DID move up two weight classes.
Conor is 145lb champ and moved up TWO weight classes and fought at 170lb.
Nate moved up from 155 and fought at 170 which is ONE weight class.
Conor moved up TWO weight classes.
Nate moved up ONE weight class.
It's really that simple and we didn't need the 1000th thread on this same simple equation.
I hope this makes sense to you, if not you could always make another thread.
Your math sounds about as good as Nate's, OP.

If he had fought someone on the 170lb roster (who cuts to make 170 on weigh-in day)...that would be taking on a fighter 2 weight classes above his.
The fact is, he fought a 155lb fighter and they both skipped the cut and called it a welterweight fight.
How is that a tough concept to grasp for some of you retards?
I think op is Aldo.

Stop making threads? How about you stop being retarded? (I apologize if you're actually retarded...hard to tell in this case)
Don't get too excited...you'll chew off your tongue.
