Brendan Schaub: Conor at UFC 205 was "the greatest 155'er we have ever seen"

[Mahkor]

He really wants Conor to do his shitty food truck show.

 

[Andre Xiong]

It’s easy to trash McGregor and he’s coming off a loss so it’s even easier but leading up to 2016, Khabib hadn’t fought as big of names as he has recently. Same for a young Ferg, beating the likes of aging vets Josh Thomson and Tibau.

Eddie was still relatively fresh off his Bellator LW champ status and came in to fight his way into a UFC LW title win, Conor beat that Eddie almost untouched.

So at the time, yes. Is he on a GOAT LW list? No because that has different standards and McG is only 1-1 at LW.

Nate has a much better chin than Tony though

Only guys with real power drop Nate with punches, whereas Tony's been dropped by dudes like Pettis and Kevin Lee.

Pettis and Kevin Lee both have real power. Pettis just KO'd a welterweight who had never been KO'd before with 1 shot and Kevin Lee just destroyed Gregor Gilliespie inside of 1 round.

better example is Lando Vannata who has only 1 KO in the UFC which came off a kick.

anyone want to bet that schaub will be morbidly obese 5 years from now?

Lee is pillow fisted

He knocked out Gregor with a kick, not sure what that has to do with punching power

LMFAO. Eddie's UFC career was an incredible disappointment outside of his performance against RDA, which he only had one big moment that he was able to capitalize on. Every other fight was either a war or shitting the bed.

To say that Conor at UFC 205 looks better than Khabib now, or Ferguson, it absolutely lunacy.

ufc casuals.. lol

 

[mmacrisis]

Khabib is the greatest 155'er ever, that is simple. Is Conor the best showman the UFC has ever had, yes but that is about it.

 

[TalibaN]
