bonus points for being specific

Stipe: A talented pressure-counter boxing fighter with decent tdd, like McGregor.

Daniel Cormier: Pressure fighters that dont back up and have good clinch+takedown defense

Robert Whitaker: Fighters with good kicks (idk on this)

Woodley: Fighters with good combinations and cardio (like diaz)

Ferguson: Fighters with good submission defense and boxing

Max Holloway: Good chain wrestlers with cardio (like dc)

TJ Dillashaw: Hard to say

Mighty Mouse: Pressure fighters with excellent TDD and clinch (similar to dcs weakness

Your picks?
 
Stipe: can be too stationary and stiff on the feet which can lead to him eating a bomb.

DC: chicken and body shots. He's been hurt a few times with body shots

Whitaker: a more diverse striker

Woodley: someone with good TDD and knockout power.

Conor: willingness to defend a title, cocaine, cardio,

Max: a pressure wrestler maybe

TJ: Mongoose

DJ: normal sized people, PPVs
 
Woodley- Three weaknesses: Welterweight Nate Marquardt, Rory McDonald and racism.
 
Stipe: A talented pressure-counter boxing fighter with decent tdd, like McGregor.

This is a tough challenge.
 
TJ has had trouble with speedy strikers with good KO power. He's gotten better at handling them but he still gets into trouble on occasion

How come you're giving out their strengths? I thought this is about weaknesses?
 
Stipe - Top strikers with a reach advantage

DC - Jones

Whitaker - not quite sure, maybe a well rounded top level striker

Woodley - strikers with top level Tdd

Conor - mentally tough fighters born in tough neighborhoods from US or Europe who have good striking, top submission game and are much bigger than him

TJ - manlets that bounce around and are tough to hit

MM - I guess a bigger well rounded opponent
 
takedown defense aside a more elite striker beats all these people. There is no Anderson silva as champion right now. Stipe, Cormier, Whittaker, Woodley, Ferguson, Holloway these guys are not elite god tier striking for MMA.
 
Conor McGregor:

Conor: none

DC: opponents who are roiled to the gills and have good cardio. Need to have that mix to cheat your way to beating him.

GSP: none

TJ: none

Max: Conor and Artem

MM: decent competition

Stipe: Brock and Cain

Whittaker: technical striker with good movement

JJ: none. Lost because fluke.

Woodley: technical striker that is good against stocky wrestlers with an overhand - Conor
