Chad Mendes dominated Conor more than Khabib did

"it's only business" - Conor McGregor

He only said that to one guy in the cage.
 
Why “money”? .... he was earning bum money.
 
Short notice Chad easily took Conor down, Khabib had to work very hard to do the same.

Chad was busy on the ground, landing numerous vicious elbows. Khabib was inactive and happy to just smother him.

Chad hit Conor with 4 or 5 bombs, Khabib landed one shot on an off balance Conor.

Chad almost finished Conor while Conor was still fresh. Khabib never threatened to finish Conor until Conor was exhausted.

Chad fought an active and peak Conor. Khabib fought a balloon footed Conor trying to shake 2 years of ring rust.

Chad didn't lose a round to Conor. Khabib did.

Chad > Khabib?
So Conor got exhausted and had to tap from Khabib doing nothing to him?

And Chad was so overpowering that the rarefied air of dominance he imposed didn't have enough oxygen to keep him conscious for two rounds?

Well, that's take you certainly won't hear anywhere else.

You just put the "anal" in analysis, there.
 
Well this settles it prime Mendes is the pfp goat.
 
I think many people how often and how much confaq had to cheat to even make it to the 4th round. Plus Khabib wanted to cte him some before making him tap like a little bitch.

Lol Chad was my teammate in college so I always appreciate when people speak good of him and I can respect this -- Chad certainly had his moments in the fight. However, I can't quite agree with this mate. Khabib had a phenomenal performance in my opinion and although Chad fought valiantly and landed some powerful offense on the feet, Khabib's performance was more flawless. Cheers!

Wouldn't say Chad > Khabib but Chad is no joke. He was top2 in his division for a long time.
 
In a world where 5 is larger than 10, yeah you’re probably right TS.
 
Ignore would be great if you didn't see the threads made by the people you have on ignore imo.

That’s actually how it works though. If you put somebody on ignore you don’t see any threads they make. You have to leave the thread, and refresh after you put them on ignore. But, that thread disappears.

Chad scored 4 takedowns in less than 2 rounds.
Khabib managed only 3 in 4 rounds.
Chad battered and bruised Conor.
Khabib barely a mark.
Look at the concern on Conor's face against Chad compared to his comfort against Khabib
It's telling that Conor immediately wanted a rematch with Khabib but never mentioned Chad again.
Chad is the far more dangerous opponent.

TA is obviously way off base. That being said, Mendes has quite a bit of success in that fight before gassing out. Also, I think conors grappling is better now then when he faced Mendes.
