Do Tristar Gym members dream of electric sheep? When Rory MacDonald walks around Montreal, is there a controversial voiceover by Harrison Ford? These are the questions that should be asked, considering many think Rory MacDonald may not be human, but it would take a Voigt-Kampff machine to really know the truth. Lucky for us, we have the next best thing in Layzie The Savage. He pulled the rising-star welterweight aside and threw every pertinent question possible in Rory's face. Questions such as his feelings on his upcoming rematch with Carlos Condit, what he thinks about the Diaz/GSP fight getting made and much more. Of course, the Canadian responded exactly like you would expect: succinctly and a little like a replicant.

Definitely would like to see this fight. Don't like Rory or his serial killer look, but he can throw down.

Pretty interesting that the video ends abruptly without Layzie thanking for the interview or Rory saying something to his fans. Also interesting that it happens right when Layzie starts to defend Nick's honor for receiving the title shot.

hmmm .. I wonder how the rest of that conversation went.

Rory is a great young fighter but it seems to me that he's trying to hard to be "different". If I had to explain it, you wouldn't understand.

I will admit that this is the most normal he's seemed in an interview. He kind of reminds me of the goth kids in south park who are devout non-conformists .

The amount of coffee in that cup never decreased. Rory's just trying to seem like one of us

Give him a break. Ricci is still trying to teach him why cool people drink Starbucks

Im not a Rory fan, as far as him potentially being a ped user he looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, maybe that is just a testament to how good he is and how bad his skin is, but those body shots he threw against BJ were pretty awesome.

Totally. His performance against Penn was impressive for what it was. I too think he and most of the other fighters in the spot are on some form of PED. People will immediately vote me down, but I ask have we not learned anything from the other professional sports? I've seen this situation play out far too many times in football, baseball, and MMA to not see the pattern. He's likely a user. Also, does this guy ever fight in Vegas? Nope, just checked. Not one fight under the jurisdiction of the NSAC, laughable

He gonna be the next champ bitches, so STFU! He agreed to the VADA testing so STFU about the roids. He in his 20s. 20 year olds have acne.

I could care less about his bacne and more about his physique. His weight fluctuation and sheer body mass off fight isn't regular. The acne just makes it worse. I'm with Stun Gun because I think most fighters in MMA are users. I don't idolize any of these people, it's athletics, people use PEDs. Not saying they are evil.

The fact that he never fights in Vegas is ridiculous though. Granted the UFC seems to save him for Canadian cards, but it's strange.

Rory could've played the lead role in that movie American Psycho. That movie was kind of weird in some parts but overall it wasn't that bad. Ronda never showboats during the fight. Before the fight she looks so focused & confident. She has this angry glare. Sometimes I rewind that part over & over. She's so intense. It's like she's a Saiyan powering up before a battle. Sometimes I imagine Ronda is a Saiyan and she fights aliens and stuff. She's be the first female Saiyan to go Super-Saiyan.

This kid is still a bitch. Him beating BJ Penn @ Welterweight is like Cerrone beating Siver @ Lightweight.... .ofuckingcourse .

It's all in the build up. They are grooming this kid too be a champion and they finally threw him back in the shark tank with all the other fighters at WW. Truth is even if he beats Condit it isn't enough in my eyes because he simply avenged a loss. Let's see him verse all the other contenders like Diaz, Hendrix, Kampmann, Ellenberger, Maia, actually WW.

serious question. Why all the hate and booing for Rory. He took out a legend in BJ Penn who isn't over the hill or out of the game yet. Are you a fan of BJ and don't like him losing or is there something else?

To me, it's about his personality. I really don't care how great of a fighter you are if you rub me the wrong way. For example, I've never been a BJ fan because I've never been able to warm up to him. But I sure enjoy watching him fight, he's a legend. Same thing with Jon Jones. Rory is treading into Jon Jones territory, where he takes on an unnatural, douchebaggy personality and starts losing fans without even understanding why people dislike him. I like watching them, but I cannot be a fan.

Let me start some controversy by saying that Rory is ducking GSP. I understand that the UFC is still building him up to be a contender, but when Rory gets there, he won't take the shot.

Dude, they are team-mates, training partners... If GSP retires before Rory gets his shot at the title, that would be the ideal situation for them mutually. Have you ever been on a team before?

The lamest excuse to duck someone. Teammates have fought each other in the past a lot. They've put on great competitive fights. There's no reason for Rory not to fight GSP. If he doesn't want to be champion, he's not a fighter.

Can't duck a fight that was never offered, so STFU! You're talking like a retard today.
