Connor's Reachin', and Nate's Teachin'

The story of the fight....
Terrible Ring Generalship

 

[Corleone187]

Stop reachin' when your arms are too short to hit anyone!

Conor has spent his whole life trying to overcome his inferiority complex about being small, and you remind him of it right after the loss? Have some mercy on the little guy.

yeah was largely a reach problem. called that one before the fight.

 

[Co-Co Zola]

Yep. He was swinging, lunging...missing.

He's used to being the longer rangier fighter. His whole game is based on unorthodox striking from all angles on the outside versus 'midgets' (as Conor himself calls them). He looks like death at the weigh-ins because he damn near kills himself to make the weight for the munchkin divisions.

This is what happens when he fights an durable tall rangy guy.

Dude STFU....Nate was the healthiest he's ever been going into a fight given that he decided the 170 catch and didnt have to sculpt his fat ass just prior.

He's probably never been more lucid going into a fight and for Nate..or Nick....thats saying a ton.

We should stop calling it a "catch weight" instead use "the fighters opted not to deplete their bodies of food and water" weight. Or something like that.
