Will we ever see Connor´s chin crack?

[yeguiza]

Let´s admit it, Connor has a granite chin

He ate bombs from Chad Mendes, Aldo also hit him, the Floyd beatdown, the Nate fights, etc
Only once he was flash KOed:

But only for a little moment and didn´t seem to have a big impact on his career so far...

We have already seen legendary chins crack: Anderson, Shogun, Hendo, Vitor, etc.

Question is: will Connor retire with his chin cracked or not?

EDIT:

WHAT SAY YOU NOW???

 

[TheIrishPsycho]

Pillowfists already cracked it TS,

Ref saved Conor from having the lights shut off.

 

[FlyingDeathKick]

I think you need to look up what a flash ko is.

 

[The Don]

Conor never struck me as someone who had a granite chin. And the only two people that visibly hurt him are not known for knockout power or punching power in general.

 

[Hotora86]

Maybe not. Doesn't really matter if he gets subbed anyway.

Mayweather ko'd plenty of fighters in his early career and has seriously underrated power. He also didn't even kd Mcgregor once.

Look at the gif. Only for a little moment, Connor is out.

See it?

Now we agree!!!
xxx
ooo

 

[yeguiza]

Never.

His defense is too good and chin too sturdy.

remember when they said that about Fedor, Anderson, Lidell, etc?

Father time is unbeaten

That's abit of a reach.. It was more gas tank than chin that gave him problems here. Not saying het didn't get lit up but he wasn't in any real danger of getting knocked out imo.

 

[Ken Oath]

Who is Connor?

 

[youllneverwalkalone]

If he keeps fighting for sure we will, but I doubt Conor will fight more 2 or 3 times in his career.

Maybe, i'm just partially trolling.

Mcgregor has a good chin, it is indeed the gas tank that is the issue.

you have a sherdog account and you don´t know him?

IMHO he has a good gas tank
problem is his relentless pace and energy applied on his striking
That empties any gas tank

It's *Conor ..

I'm not a fan, but I will say the guy does have a good chin..

 

[yeguiza]

Who the fuck ever said Liddell and Fedor's defense was good lol?

Prime Fedor almost got slept by Fujita and Liddell always had piss poor technique

so connor´s striking defense is that good?

He gets punched in every fight: that´s how we found out he has a granite chin

Also, don´t get mad at me

 

[Kael Rills]

I don't think at 155 or below anybody can crack that chin. He's never even been knocked down let alone knocked out. People underestimate Conor's chin like they underestimate Khabib's chin. Conor generally relies on his ability to take punches instead of blocking them. In fact he wants his opponents to punch him so he can counter with a straight.

 

[yeguiza]

Nah it's really only the Mendes fight that showed us his iron chin

Conor had a torn ACL in that fight too

IMHO he also ate memorable bombs in the siver fight (siver not a world beater though), Aldo landed heavy on him...
Nate and Floyd struck him repeatedly while gassed and his chin held too

Granite chin, my ass.

Got rocked by non-power punches in Diaz and Mayweather. I'll admit, he took some bombs from Mendes but that's it..

 

[Mammothman]

His panic wrestling skills are too good, he will gave up his neck, back or another limb like a gazelle to tap in seconds once he is taken before going out by strikes

the mendes fight was before diaz and mayweather

maybe his chin was better then and it already started declinig?
