Conor is huge for 145, ducking 155?

[Tnellie30]

LMAO...well, at least that isn't photoshopped.

What, did Dennis get his legs cut off at the knees or something...

 

[SnowBlynd]

Pictures are deceiving and don't really tell us much when it comes to weight. GSP said he was 200LB during his "retirement". Thats at least 30LB plus bigger then Connor

Well, it's a pic where gsp and Conor are the same size. Any one would describe them as being the same size to a cop.

 

[Alphafail]

What's funny is that he brags about being bigger than most 145 fighters.

 

[iloveufc123]

He's fine at that weight class, he hasn't missed weight so I don't know why you're saying he's too big...

 

[brnforce]

The 90% population of Sherdog Mary's would froth at that version of Conor.

Could you even imagine a heavyweight with Conor's speed? That'd be crazy.

That said, Conor isn't too big at 145. They both weighed 145 so they re the same size. Yes, height and reach have advantages if you know how to use them, but those factors can be worked around.

[Iroh]

Haha, awesome.

Siver looks much more solid. Siver huge at FW from a body mass perspective. Mcgregor is tall and lanky for the division. He'd be average at LW as far as height goes, but he'd be undersized as far as body mass goes.

 

[sparkyjohannsen]

Omg. ATLEAST TWO INCHES?!?!

 

[DocK]

Shertards just gonna completely ignore that Conor has fought at 155, has stated he prefers to fight at 155 but the UFC wants him at 145, and that his goal is to hold both 145 and 155 belts.

Not that any of that matters. If you can make weight, you can make weight.

 

[egg so skeleton]

I just think it's funny you're trying to say Conor isn't too big for 145, and you argue that he's the same size as a guy who decided he was too big for 145 lol.

You don't see what's funny about that?

Without actually running down the list in my head, almost every top fighter at FW can make LW. DP moving up doesn't really mean that much. He got beat up and pretty much used the weight cut as an indirect excuse. Have to preserve the ego somehow.

 

[Johntreksmith]

Conor dwarfed Dennis Siver and Conor is listed and 5'8". There looked to be at the very LEAST 2 inches separating the two in height (probably more.)

This goes to show how big Conor is for the division and reveals that he may have to move up to 155 eventually. He did after all look very drained during a post-fight interview.

Awesome pics. Great size. Looking thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

 

[milenss]

Poirer himself said he was too big for the division. That's why he's moving to 155....

Come on bud don't take this too seriously it was just funny of all the people at featherweight to compare Conor to its the one guy who moved up to 155.

It's funny that's all buddy. Also if you want to get technical he's had 9-fights at LW and 11-fights at FW, and now he's back up to 155. So it's not like he's always been a featherweight.

Poorier moved up to LW, not because he was big for FW, but because the GOAT kicked him out of that division.
Conor just humiliated him, after Dustin was knocked out by the gust of the wind.


p.s. Poorier was clearly taller than the GOAT.

 

[Jballer]

No TS. Sherdog only cares about size discrepancies when it involves Jones.

 

[Vikassi]

He already said he was moving up once he KO's Aldo. He wants to hold both belts. He will. He's the GOAT.

 

[SherdogJoe]

I'm pretty sure he's not ducking 155. He talks quite frequently about moving up to that weight and taking the belt. Not sure how that counts as ducking lol

 

[MusterX]

He already said he was moving up once he KO's Aldo. He wants to hold both belts. He will. He's the GOAT.

Aldo is better everywhere and is faster too. You are going to have a long wait if you think he KO's the actual 145 GOAT and reigning, defending champion, Jose Aldo.

 

[clumseygenius]

Lawl at ducking when the dude has said from time he plans on moving up. That research, please work it before creating a thread that in turn becomes a straight-up shite thread mate.

 

[OldManGrip]

Not again with this retarded logic. If he can make 145 then he can make 145. What the hell does height have to do with anything.
MMA has weight divisions, not height divisions.

I don't particularly like Conor or Jones, but people making such retarded arguments are literally grasping at straws.

5'8 isn't exactly tall. It is in fact the average height for 145

 

[Bones245n4847]

Siver is what? 5'4 or 5'4.5, you are talking about a guy who should probably be a flyweight vs a legit Lightweight sized guy so obviously the staredown would look like that.
