Is Conor still in his physical prime?

according to a lot of people on sherdog, Max Holloway has severe CTE from 2 fights with Jose Aldo.

It's obvious Aldo took his chin.

If you are talking about your physical prime and not just MMA prime as in skill and experience, plenty of track and field athletes have set world records and personal bests in their 30’s.

Very few, the vast majority of track and field athletes hit their peak in their mid or even early 20s, especially runners. Some of the other athletes like the throwers peak a little later but even they usually will peak in their 20s

yeah, so obvious that he was never even knocked down.

you realize Jose Aldo was the one who got stopped in both fights right?

His lifestyle and beatings have taken their toll

Hard to believe this is Conor just a couple years ago... he looked like a kid!

Please post more pictures of Conner's body.... Please

Adonis glutes are evidence that Conor is bordering on physical human perfection.

Keep your weird fanboy fap material to yourself pls.

Trash talk performances aside, one thing that really struck me when watching last night's presser was how aged Conor looked. This wasn't drained, on-the-scales Conor. And no, it isn't the beard or the hairline. I'm talking about his face and eyes in particular, which are sagging, and tired-looking.

He's just 30, but sitting next to Khabib, who is the same age, he looked decidedly worn out and faded. Obvious explanation: One does coke(?), drinks and is known for partying hard with his buddies, the other doesn't even drink alcohol. That shit catches up to you.

He is past his mental prime for sure.

He's starting to get loose. You can see it all over. To much estrogen. No balls.

Meh... Blow might stop the heart but only for a short time because the heart will restart

Having a child tends to make people age

It ages women, not men. Having a kid made me feel great.

I forgot how badly Mendez roughed Conner up.

Conor's neck is way smaller than it used to be. He actually wore clothing to try and hide it during the press conference.

I think you're on to something, TS.

I would say no. Its hard to stay disciplined under normal circumstances, but give a young guy millions of dollars and there is just no chance. He may say hes "in the gym" and all that, but there is just no way he pushes himself to his limits the way he used to. And that doesn't even credit the insane amount of cocaine, alcohol, and whatever else he has been doing for the last 2 years, it has to take its toll.

I doubt Conor is at his best. He has been blowing up his brain cells like a madman. He still has a punchers chance tho imo.

I don't think the guys in his gym push him either.

Seems like he just has a bunch of yes men around him.

Conor doesn’t look markedly worse to me than he did a few years ago. He’s got kind of coarse features and he always has his hipster beard and haircut. I think we will see when they fight how badly drugs and booze have taken a toll on him physically.

That's a good point. I saw an interview with BJ Penn where his teammates admitted they wouldn't question his training or critize anything because he was a legend and former champ, he must know better, and that lead to him not fixing mistakes or evolving his game. It's true, you really can't get better if everyone just tell you you're the best.

Good thing we judge like a beauty contest, amirite?

 

[ralek4grammy]

Beautiful dog, tbh.

 

[locust rising]

Mayweather sucked the youth out of him so he could fight manny again.

 

[Ogata]

His hairline, facial skin and muscle composition have changed.

Jesus!

Strong Charles Cross look alike!
