Allah help Khabib if he ever fights Conor

[JimtheJake]

Slow, zero head movement, predictable striking, plods or runs forward in an attempt to pressure.

Conor will counter strike that all day. After seeing how he reacted to a straight shot from MJ he'll be panic wrestling after the first knockdown. Also that cardio of his will be shot after Conor puts it on him in round 1.

I'm not even a mcnuthugger btw, it just seems super basic to me.

edson is the best striker in the division and that zero head movement of khabibs (not true btw, he just stands vertically because he doesnt give a fuck if someone shoots on him) still fucked up edson

nate is a slow moving zombie with no takedowns and wore down conor.. but ok

and Khabib's cardio will be shot after round 1? Conor can't go past round 1 and 1/2 with anyone. if he didnt put Alvarez out in that fight he would have lost that one too via fatigue

 

[MakeSherdogGreatAgain]

If he gets caught coming in, you are correct. If Khabib either takes it or manages to grab ahold of Conor, Conor is fucked. Conor wouldn't last as long as Barboza taking a beating on the ground like that because he has no gas tank.

Edson is at least as good a striker as Conor is... he couldn't do shit.

Edson is far from the best striker in the division. Just has flashy kicks and always struggles with boxers.

Barboza is a far, far better striker all around than McGregor. I say that objectively. Barboza is a better striker than probably all of that division. He's faster and more diverse. Ultra technically sound.

So, it isn't like Conor would ever fight Khabib, or that the UFC would ever allow it, but there isn't any reason whatsoever for anyone to legitimately think Conor would perform any better.

 

[Cung Le]

I think the opposite if he locks up with conor, Conor is going to gas out so fast and when he gasses out he gives up.

LEL @ guy who’s 2-2 in his last four fights being a threat to the 25-0 Eagle.




Connie fans are in full #MELTDOWN mode after Khabib being undenied the spotlight.

 

[revoltub]

Khabib looked beatable

Man you' think MJ landed the same shot ngannauo did on reem vs khabibs. How did he react ? He didn' fall, kept moving forward and delivered the biggest beating of his career.

 

[ocs2304]

Conor would have a punchers chance but Khabib would maul Conor most likely stop him inside of 3 rds.

 

[FromTheSouth]

Connie wouldnt take so Many shots as barboza and Johnson did..that chicken would tap due strikes

 

[legedema]

WTF is TS talking about ?
seems like that brain damage also happened to the nuthuggers after what Khabib did to Barboza

 

[xx madskillz xx]

If Conor cant knock out Khabib quick its over.Khabib takes him down and rapes him.Conor will not be able to take as much as Barboza did or last as long as Barboza.Conor taps out in round 1.

 

[bad seed]

lets stop teasing each other about this fantasy matchup that will NEVER HAPPEN.

 

[BForrester]

Conor won't be able to find the space to strike with his usual effectiveness. That's one fight Conor must end early. Khabib's pressure, combined with Conor's lack of a gas tank, steals Conor's soul if it gets past round 2.

 

[Jopious Extronimous]

I'll uh, help Conor if he ever fights Khabib.

 

[TripTictonic]

Conor quits by the end of the 2nd.

You serious ? Edson’s kicks are on another level compared to Conor’s and Conor’s hands are on another level compared to Edson’s.

 

[Necromantic]

edson is the best striker in the division

LOL, he is nowhere near conor at all and I don't really care for Conor but facts are facts.
