You think so O? He seemed very content allowing mendes sit in guard, but that might be because he knew he was gassing too. I think that if he tries to initiate scrambles with RDA on top though it would end with RDA grabbing an arm or neck and ending the fight. But like Jerry said, McGregor keeps proving me wrong too!
Huge difference in threat level on the ground. Chad's strong and has a guillotine but even if he weren't gassing, that length deficit would help Conor protect himself.
If you slow down and hang out under RDA, he's going to hurt you. Keep in mind that Pettis is clever off his back and has a strong defensive game. I think if Conor can't immediately get up or at least escape to a transitional position, he's pretty much finished (aka I agree with O, Conor will take risks to get to his feet).
Fight doesn't go to decision -320 seems fantastic here. McGregor left hand early, or he gets finished on the ground at some point.
i'll say this for conor. he's not looking for easy fights.
can anyone think of a harder fight for conor at 145 or 155? i sure as hell can't.
Rda +108
Could we get Rda as high as +150 at some point?
RIP RDA
McGOAT will be lining my pockets this year
They aren't similar at all. Pettis has some of the worst ring awareness of all time, and Conor has some of the best ring awareness and control in the game. Thats just one difference but there are many. People who think RDA will back Conor up like he did Pettis are in for a surprise.LOL.... Pettis and Conor have similar styles and look how it ended up for him.
Be careful. Now that Conor has so much money who knows what types of steroids hes on.Man RDA keeps climbing.. +125 now. Getting tempting up in here.
