Is Stephens the legit hardest hitting 145er?

[agibmxmma]

Conor gets tkos Jeremy knocks people into another dimension

How so? Both have hyped power and yet dont really have the one punch ko ability on tap. Jeremy hasn't finished anyone with a one punch ko since 2011 against Davis. Before that it was 2006 and 2005, every other finish was multiple strikes to end it. Which doesn't scream "knocks people into another dimension" power.

 

[agibmxmma]

You call the 4 hit combo on Alvarez "loading up"?

If I recall, Cerrones 4 hitter on Story, Ricky was still standing.

And Alvarez plus Story are the same person, as is Cerrone and Conor? You truly make no sense. Yes, Conor loads up, although accurate.. comprehension is key when replying to an adult kiddo, next..

 

[Rolento]

Only when he's calibrated

 

[CaloLutadores]

Ground and pound KOs when his opponents are trying to get back up. When Conor's opponents (at 145) go down, they stop trying to get up.

I'm not even a fan of Conor's, but to suggest Stephens hits harder at 145 is ridiculous. You guys buy hype way too easily.

I think Jeremy hits harder - which means he has a stronger one punch.

However, Conor is way more precise and destructive, more versatile with his angles, therefore makes his opponents quit. Conor is not exaclty a power puncher - he hits hard, but he mostly finishes with TKOs after combinations or precise counters. He does not cause people to not fookin move.

Pretty much ball of Conor’s finishes are TKO stephens are mostly all KO
Conor’s punching power is overrated af Jeremy earned his title against the best in multiple weightclasses
Conor probably won’t even come back

Jeremy has 10 tko's, only 4 actual one punch ko's, and 4 combo ko's (punches and elbows combined), nor does he have a title.. Conor has 3 one punch finishes, 1 ko from elbows, 12 tko's, and one tko due to Dr's stoppage. So their numbers aren't two far off from one another if comparing the two.

I added a question mark since those were 2 questions.

Yeah Eddie and Story have been and are welterweight. Eddie just fights now at lightweight. Conor is definitely no WW.

Precision beats power, timing beats speed. Kiddo.

Conor is nothing but a power puncher, who relied on his size and strength while in the division.

He loads up his shits, corks his punches...

He is a typical fast-twitch fighter who over commits then gasses out mid fight.
To suggest that he's a technical fighter, is hysterical.

Anyways, whatever makes you happy dude.

What da fook, how can you be a gold belt here? Mike Perry is like that. Rumble is like that. Compare their KO’s to Conor TKO’s over Brimage, Mendes, Siver, Eddie. Are these fully loaded power punches? No, it’s a combination of precise, technical strikes which caused them to fall.

He gassed against Diaz because he overcommitted and didn’t impose his will, that’s true. Also he doesn’t do much cardio. But he’s not a fully loading power puncher who wants to rip your head with every punch.

Thank you for saying the first. All these shills and "Conor loading up" can't handle the left hand.

He gassed w/ Diaz for having to gain a pretty substantial amount of weight.

Lmao get lost

2 hard elbows right on the chin cut emmett up and put him to sleep

From illegal knee

 

[Frozen Sea]

Josh Emmet didn't fuckin move.

 

[BlackPanther]

They don't call him Hammer for nothin'

 

[hansolo]

They don't call him Hammer for nothin'

Did you Photoshop his arms shorter? That doesn't look natural.

 

[P0NYBOY]

Yves Edwards and Marcus Davis beg to differ.

 

[FrontNakedChoke]

He really is the hardest hitting 45er

 

[bambammccoy]

Mendes would take him down and smash him

The question was about who the hardest hitter was, not the guy with the best chin

Mendes is the only guy to KO Elkins, and he did it in 1 minute

Could have sworn Mendes KOd him in the 3rd round.

 

[Benoitthegr8]

The correct answer is...

 

[BigMuffler]

The conversation is who hits hardest. Sonnen beat Rampage but clearly Rampage hits harder.

It’s not about who wins between Stephens or Mendes. It’s who hits harder.

Lord Chael hits with the force of a million exploding suns!

 

[mcf4]

No, Frankie Edgar is an accuracy puncher. Diaz bros are accuracy punchers.

Conor is a typical power puncher. He loads up on all his shots

They are more volume boxers. I would say Conor puts a decent amount of leverage behind his shots, but it’s more the fact that he hits the “button” that gives him the ability to turn people’s lights out.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

IDK but the guy throws everything hard.
