Conor McGregor and Jos

[Boxingislife]

Conor pulls out this time when he has to find another way to cut weight without the need of IV, since the IV ban is now put into effect.

Here is Aldo himself saying that he walks around at over 170lbs

Aldo cuts even more then Conor, and has had more trouble cutting weight

Meanwhile, its Conor whos always been professional. "Ive made weight many times without an IV and will have to do so again"

Conor respects the fight game too much, unlike Aldo

You can say Aldo has a better kick than these fighters, but remember, McGregor also has the best straight left in MMA. Aldo is likely gonna get caught with a counter left if he throws too many kicks.

yeah like Aldo never setup his kicks...

Come now, you post pictures of boss counter-strikers counter-striking some feebs and you think that's how Aldo/Conor Mc will go? Like Irvin, TSilva, Bendo, or Soto have the striking defense of Aldo? Aldo's been lighting legs up since 'Nam, he's not one to get countered so easily and Conor Mc ain't no Anderson or Machida.

You guys are all idiots and fake psychologists.

None of them look worried at all. Conor looks focused and Aldo looks pissed.

And Dana is looking at their junk.

 

[UJustGotChaeld]

Anderson was the complete package and didn't come up from nothing.

Actually Silva had the same holes in his game that Conor has, only more so.

Didn't say he didn't.

Just saying that it will be hard to land leg kicks when he's being backed up.

Conor has better boxing than Aldo and Machida. Aldo has good defence but when he gets wild/angry he gets careless. Considering he hates McGregor, the likelyhood of him losing his temper is high...thus the likelyhood of Aldo getting wild is high.

 

[Boxingislife]

Do you remember a fighter called Anderson Silva? Who as he got more succesful he arguably performed better and riskier... shut up and stop assuming everyone is a point fighter like GSP.

These Conor haters are delusional my brother.

"They" were saying similar shit before the Mendes fight:

"But Conor wont be able to strike as freely as usual against a wrestler. We wont see Conor kicking. Mark my words. Conor will be more tentative" etc etc

And YET Conor AGAINST the BEST wrestler was still being himself and striking with NO fucks given

Its simply Conor's DNA. Conor is a master technician who is NEVER going to water himself down for anyone or any situation ever...Conor is going to always use flashy kicks to get opponents open up, use kicks to attack the body, mix it up, dictate, control, make reads and exploit etc. Conor will always be Conor.

You don't believe that.

 

[ThulsaDooom]

Conor can't even stand up for a while or everyone will see the hole in his pants

side note his hair line is looking rough

Talk a bit nicer and Conor may let you blow him.

Better boxing? He's a karate style fighter. He doesn't box. Look at his stance, what boxer has that kind of stance? Aldo is measured and solid with his technique and gameplan. You kids keep saying he's shook and emotional but he's bedrock. Aldo is going to light that lead leg up.

 

[tkotom]

Aldo looks VERY intense...but its more of a posturing/over compensation

Conor on the other hand has a kind of cold relaxed stoick Russian killer vibe/stare going on, like, "im in control and youre gonna die soon enough mother fucker. Bid your time well"

Aldo has no idea what hes gotten himself into

Conor is always acting like a clown at these staredowns. Making threats, stealing belts, etc..

What are you on about haha.

 

[Defeat Unknown]

More "intense staredowns". Brilliant. Can't wait to see more. Why was Aldo even on TUF? Not enough drama between Conor and Faber?

You can say Aldo has a better kick than these fighters, but remember, McGregor also has the best straight left in MMA. Aldo is likely gonna get caught with a counter left if he throws too many kicks.

Also, Conor actually hard checks kicks too

In fact, Conor has won a fight by checking his opponents kick and shattering his shin. Look it up

Aldo's kicks will be a non factor. Conor will either step in and counter them or hard check them. Aldo will be discourged from throwing them fairly quickly

IF Aldo wants to have success with kicks he has to time them as Conor kicks up high (going low while Conor is one one leg)

Aldo attacking the same way he always has with his kicks (or punch kick combos) is going to get ugly for him very fast

Conor wont be there at a stand still for Aldo to kick after his combos. Conor will either be gone or ready to counter...or Conor wont even let Aldo get off with his combos in the first place (dictating with probes, controlling range, disrupting - landing, then avoiding or stiffling etc)

And also HARD CHECKS.

Remember, Korean Zombi broke Aldo's ankle with a hard check. Conor has broken an opponents shin with a hard check

Errr DERP..read the article.

Yeah, man, Conor Dillon kicks just like Jose Aldo.

McGregor is not a karate style fighter. He uses a wide stance, but it's not karate style. It is much more similar to a traditional boxing style. Maybe learn before you talk.

Aldo is measured and solid but he has never been forced to fight on the backfoot, how do you think he is gonna be able to swing his hips into leg kicks when he's backing up?

It's like you fans don't consider the match-up before you start talking.

Also, I've not once said he looks shook...although in this photo he does.

 

[Face Punch]

Errr DERP..read the article.

The man just said in the most recent interview that he weighs 162. Conor's head can barely make 145 and it's been well documented.

You seriously have a child's communication skills.

Doesn't Aldo throw his kick during the midst of a combo? I'm pretty sure this hasn't happened to him yet because he sets it up better...

I'm pretty much just replying to a man that knows nothing about how MMA striking works. I understand Aldo throws his kicks at the end of his combos.

The GIFS aren't irrelevant, but I was just showing him what a kick cross counter looks like as he thinks Aldo can kick Conor whenever he wants without the proper set up.
