Alternate Conor Mcgregor angle shows, punch not slap

[Lanx]

1. Conor is clenched up, waiting to throw that fist
2. Conor adjusts his stance for a better shot
3. Conor waits till Dana's head is turned towards Nate

yup, just like weigh in Ronda

Notice how Dana ALWAYS goes after the one that was attacked? Dana went after Holly first, and here he went after Nate.

 

[SpaceGinger]

What Conor did was way worse than Ronda for the fact that he could have put the whole fight in jeopardy if he had injured Nate's hand.

 

[spike85]

throw a punch then backup. lol. played himself.

 

[mikenason]

Ronda lied and made it seem like Holly punched her when all she did was put her arms above Rondas close to her face to pose for the staredown, and then Ronda acted all emo and pushed her down and caused the scuffle.

 

[Lanx]

Look at Ronda jerking twice, she didn't realize Holly is carved outta granite and made out of pure muscle.

 

[fbgn]

love how strong holly is. she's like: DE-NIED

 

[Rex Kwon Do]

And this image shows it didn't even land. Nate's reflexes were too quick.

Put your money on Nate.

That's cause the person that was attacked will be the first one to retaliate.

 

[Ceez]

I'll just add this, Conors lucky that big ass watch he's wearing didn't catch Nate's hand or forearm and cut him or something along those lines as well. Stupid move by a guy who has appeared to be halfway intelligent. Could have cost himself a payday if Nate was unable to fight, bet he wouldn't be happy with himself if that had happened huh?

It landed. That was after it landed, Nate pulled it away.

Conor's on his tippy toes and is wearing dress shoes and still is a midget lol.

If you study meuvement like me, you can see from the position of Conor's body that his arm's still on the downward trajectory and his hand has not met any resistance yet. Therefore he couldn't have actually made contact with Nate's hand, as it would have interrupted the momentum and completely changed the position of his body due to biomechanics.

 

[Faceplanter]

Conor's left (it was a punch) smashed Nate's hand for touching his face. Nothing new here. Nate was grabbing his hand afterward and many believe that it's injured (probably mild at best). Nate said that it wasn't though in the Jay & Dan interview with Conor not long after but he did feel stung by it. Wait until Saturday and he'll realize Conor hits a whole lot harder when Dana isn't in between them.

touching his face? even in the last moments after conor walked all the way into the fist it's not like nate touched him. watch the slow motion on full screen you can clearly see nate never touched conor.

 

[kazama]

He let him feel his left hand. I must admit that was quite fast

 

[NotoriousJoker]

It's called a Dublin Slap!...It's like the Stockton slap, except it's with a closed fist and it's thrown 10 times faster.

Nate's reflexes won't be quick enough in that cage on Saturday tho.

Your understanding of "movement" is as shitty as Ido's

There is actually a clip where you can hear the fist smashing into his hand. I have no doubt that punch landed.
