Funny you said that so sarcastically while making it out like more power means nothing. You couldn't be more wrong about that. It changes everything. If Conor doesn't have to worry about getting KO'ed on the feet then he can take more chances.Lmao, Okie Dokie, what you just said has nothing to do with shit. Try and let the people that don't spew bullshit talk.
Now I'm not saying that Khabib's lack of KO power will result in him not being able to close distance eventually. I hope Khabib survives long enough that he will get a chance to test Mac's TDD... but it's not going to be this "shoot & scoop' that the Conor resistance seems to think it's going to be.
If Khabib gets reckless, he goes to sleep. I get that it may or may not be that simple... but it's hard to just ignore the Aldo fight. or the Portier fight... or the Alvarez fight... or the Mendez fight. The list goes on. Fact is that Khabib has to be very concerned & careful that he doesn't end up on this list. He will have to go in there timid at first, just like he alwayz does & get his opponents timing down. It is during this phaze that he gets slept imo. If he makes it out of that feeling out period.... then all good. I hope he does actually because I would like to see Conor shake off a couple of TD's or even get taken down & show that it wasn't the end of the world for him like the resistance seemz to think.
Ideally some nice back n forth moments would be the best thing ever to happen that might make at least some of the more reasonable members of the resistance see the light. If Khabib gets reckless & rushes in & Conor just Aldo's his ass then everyone will say he never got tested or whatever kind of things they say to try & take away the Aldo win. I want to see them mix it up & both have the advantage at some point.
I'd also like to see a later round KO for Mac. People act like he hasn't worked on his cardio when there's a very clear evolution right there on screen to be seen. I'd like to see that tested & him come out fresh as ever in later rounds.
