In his last fight, Eddie used the same rhythm manipulation that Conor used on Eddie back at UFC 205

Conor doesn't gas because he has shit cardio, he gasses because he doesn't like getting hit.
Well a bit of both.
Lol so I take it you have never seen Conor fight?
Here is Conor walking Nate into a lead
Conor bobs and weaves while suddenly changing direction, making Nate miss, then has Nate following him, while Conor has his feet planted ready to meet Nate with an ambush lead. After Conor has utilised slick footwork to walk Nate into a lead, Conor then pivots out, taking away any possible return from Nate landing
Lastly, did you not even watch the gif I posted of Conor rocking Floyd with that counter left? Its right there.
To say that Conor has any weakness in footwork shows how it's you Conor haters who are the real noobs who know nothing about fighting
Here it is again
Now pay attention.After the body shot, Conor pivots off his back foot sliding to his right to change the positioning.
Look how this screws up Floyd's timing on the right as he is now forced to slightly turn to Conor/align his right. Conor changing up the angle causes Floyd to hesitate before delivering the right. Conor slips it with ease
People who don't understand boxing won't be able to recognize and appreciate just how world class Conor's footwork is, how Conor is always stepping around opponents, and or stepping off/pivoting to change positioning/angles etc.
This is why Conor says "Im a ghost. When they think im not there, I am always right there." Conor is always switching up the positionings/angles, forcing opponents to turn into his traps or counters. Ustiling subtlety. Real great footwork is all about subtle steps into position, or out of etc. When you look at Conor as a striker in MMA, Conor has the skill IQ and countering of Floyd with the footwork and angles of Lomachenko. Conor is seriously a marvel to watch and study. People just don't know fighting to truly appreciate Conor.

A lot of people ignore HOW not only is Nate SIGNIFICANTLY BIGGER then Conor, but how Conor had staph when he fought Nate the first time
The rematch when both had a full camp and both were healthy proved how much of a fluke the result of the first fight was
And it's pretty obvious that Conor would ruin Nate at 155
170 hurts Conor's gas tank, and it allows Nate's only advantages (chin and size) to really shine through at 170.
People love to ignore how Nate had never ever been dropped at 170 in his life before Conor
Conor is the only fighter to ever drop WW Nate at WW..and Conor is a career FW...people criminally downplay and under-rate Conor's win over Nate

If Conor was 'snowed in' and decided to create a sherdog account, wouldn't this ts be it?

Why are you tagging me pussy? Scared to reply so people don't see these gifs?@613 @Rented Gucci Mink
Conor rocked Floyd bad to the body too
No where near the balls.
Right on the belt line, which is purely legal. Had Floyd badly hurt.
The corrupt paid off boxing ref had to come in and save the 49-0 boxer from the the 0-0 fighter
ps. lol at the Conor hating troll account. To dedicate yourself to hating on another man is the epitomy of mental illness/complete loser
Stop posting bullshit and how about you explain what's going on in these gifs instead of the same 2-3 shitgifs of Conor landing 1 meaningless punch.

are these supposed to make Conor look "stupid" or embarass him somehow?
If it was a world class boxer, say Loma, in these gifs, no one would post them and mock them. They wouldn't even pay them any mind. But because its a gassed Conor, its somehow "funny"
Conor is the best hand striker in MMA, and went 9 rounds with a top 3 ATG GOAT boxer...and won rounds..

Yeah so significantly bigger. The guy who's made 155 his entire career and had been physically manhandled by several fighters there all of a sudden is huge. The 2nd fight didn't prove anything was a fluke, matter of fact, if conor panic wrestles again in the 3rd round instead of surviving against the cage he likely gets tapped out again .
Don't be so insecure about MMA. It isn't about MMA vs Boxing. Floyd never said he had MMA figured out and would beat MMA champs like Conor did with Boxing. Conor and his fans talk all kinds of shit about Boxing saying they had it figured out. Then Conor got his ass kicked. There is far more boxing in MMA then there is MMA in Boxing. Conor has been punching his whole career. Floyd has never defended TDs or grappled. Its a stupid question to ask.

-Implying Conor doesn't look stupid in these gifs
-Implying a pro boxer, namely Lomachenko would look this stupid in the ring
-Conor is gassed excused
-Which rounds did Conor win? If your answer is 1,2 or 3 don't bother replying as Floyd never tries to wins those rounds against anyone in the past decade. Also against Conor he threw single digits for those rounds, if you think Conor wasn't carried then you're even more stupid than I thought.
Show me one legit list that has Floyd top 3 ATG. I am a Floyd fan, but NO ONE who watches and knows Boxing says he is a top 3 ATG unless they are bias (like in his camp). Floyd is around the 10th spot ever.
Also context is important. Floyd right now is not the great Boxer he once was. He probably isn't even top 10 WWs right now. He also didn't even spar for a month before the fight and basically fought Conor with zero respect. Floyd threw technique out the window and just walked forward in a straight line with the most basic D in boxing. If he did that VS any top 20 WW he would get schooled. Conor did OK, but don't act like what he did was amazing
Don't tell BJ Penn fans that
Their last fight was a MD. Not exactly decisive. It was a back and forth fight that could have gone either way. I scored it for Conor, but it undeniably was a close fight. Facts are, they have fought twice. Nate choked him out the first time, and Conor won a close decision the second time. If you take away Conor clearly being the better fighter from that, then you are retarded
Also cardio is a huge part of fighting dumbass. Thats like saying Nate is clearly a better fighter and the only reason they are 1-1 is because Nate's shitty defense

Conor Boxed Andre Ward? Have you ever even seen a Boxing match? Floyd at this point is not even a top 10 WW. Maybe not even a top 20 WW.
