What ranked lightweight can Conor confidently beat?

[hunt0]

I just don't see it... Conor looked awful against Poirier, I'm not even talking about the leg break, he was losing in any aspect of martial arts, BADLY.
I can see any of these guys being a tough fight for Conor.

 

[Johnnny]

Chandler, Dos Anjos, Ferguson, Hooker, Gillespie, Riddell, Ferreira

Chandler, Dos Anjos, Ferguson, Hooker, Gillespie, Riddell, Ferreira

nopes.
maybe CDF and Tony. But the rest would beat Conor.

I see most of these guys taking Conor and mauling him. Easiest fight is Ferguson and if that goes past the 3rd round Conor is in big trouble

 

[koquerelle]

Yes! Another Conor thread!

Its unbelievable that you can still be ranked top 10 in the world without winning a in 3-5 years in that weight class. Sucks to be those guys coming up.

everyone except top 4

You really believe conor can confidendly beat RDA, Gillespie, Arman, Gamrot...?

Chandler is short like Eddie Alvarez and he thinks too much, which opens himself up to Conor's mental warfare. RDA is old and he was losing to Conor's mind games when they were scheduled to fight. Hooker is broken from being in so many wars. Gillespie is tiny and was literally launched across the cage by Kevin Lee. Riddell is mediocre.

Tony and maybe CDF. That's about it IMO. There are others he'd have decent chances against, but you said "confidently".

Conor was getting so easily taken down by Poirier, what makes you think these guys wouldn't take him down lol

I think so. Probably Oliveira and Gaethje too. He is a really talented guy. Just depends how much he trains. I don't think he beats Islam and Dariush...

 

[King in the North]

Chandler and Ferguson. I like his chances against Gaethje. The rest are at best toss ups.

 

[richardjohnson]

I think he can beat Tony. I imagine there’s others he could beat but I’m not sure I would be confident

10 new Conor threads a day in this forum, but when you start one with Khabib's name it gets banished to the LW forum.

 

[Koro_11]

Yes! Another Conor thread!

And you responded to and got triggered by every single one. Stay mad bro.

 

[Coolkid666]

With a punchers chance, maybe Gillespie or riddell

Khabib is retired, Colin is an active UFC fighter.

 

[flowoftruth]

Hooker and Ferguson

Khabib is retired, Colin is an active UFC fighter.

So Conor has a fight booked? Regardless my threat was about Aldo being the Comeback FOTY and whether or not Khabib will ever make a comeback. Lots of threads about retired fighters in this forum.
