Media Conor McGregor has been working on his Boxing

[Mangar]

He could probably be a champ in boxing as well as mma to be honest.

Stuck in the mud, slower than a chili turd, and doesn’t have the chin absorb the return fire. Boxer Conor is a shell of himself.

You spelled “chump” wrong.

Looking like that Stephen A Smith video.

Honestly.

No can defend the vaunted dick punch.

Conor’s technique has always been very very good

Match that with his below average chin and abysmal cardio and I’d say he isn’t even a top 10 in any weight class anymore. Far cry from his double champ days.

Ray Charles can see that wind-up a mile away <45>

Conor is not a boxer, and I say this is a boxer.

I love boxing, but Conor is a turd as a boxer.

He was actually at his best as a skinny, free-flowing karateka ...

The moment he abandoned this, and tried to become a flat-footed "power-puncher" boxer, he has literally failed ever since.

He has decent attributes, good reach and power, but his subpar chin and abysmal cardio are a death sentence for that style.

Sorry, that wasn't "boxing" at all.

When Connor won those fights, he was in his "free-floating, wide-stanced (hopping-back-and-forth) 'karateka' motif" in both.

A completely different stance from what he had with the last two Poirier fights. Literally night and day.

If you can't see the difference, then you should never make another post again.

Exactly. MVP has fought in a boxing ring but he is still using non-boxing fundamentals and techniques from kickboxing and Karate.

He removed him because Nate embarrassed him with 1 comment. "Touch butt in the park" shattered his ego.

It was a damn good comment. Lol

He did well against Floyd and won some rounds.

Which rounds? It’s a well known fact that Floyd carried him in order to secure as much advertising and sponsor money as possible. Floyd literally only fought in the 10th round.

What’s his MMA record since he boxed Mayweather?

We're not talking about his record, the topic is more about Conor and his stance and striking approach in mma. The Floyd fight doesn't have anything to do with his record, he'd have the same record regardless if he fought him or not.

Stephen's deep breaths are beyond comical.

This is of course why many gave Conor the 8th round and Floyd tried to finish the fight in the 9th but couldn't.

You guys are the midwits on the bell curve.

That's probably not true. He spent a lot of time and energy promoting and training for a boxing fight.

He suffered a loss against a smaller older Floyd, with the psychological impact that carries with it.

He earned a ahitload of money, maybe this was the payday that got him to fuck you money status. Without that, he'd likely grinding away in mma for more big pay days.

He narrowed his training to just boxing for the fight and this boxing xentred training approach seems to have continued after the fight. This boxing style definitely seems less effective than his previous karate based style.

He learned he can make huge money as a boxer. The temptation to do this again probably dilutes his motivation to fight mma.

Getting beat up by your sister doesn't make you a boxer. Let's see one of your boxing videos. Post or it didn't happen.

Removing Ido Portal from his camp the worst mistake he's made, now he's a stiff brawler

Not exactly, he abandoned his ITF Taekwondo coach who was teaching him old school Tang Soo Do/Korean Karate and that was the style of Conor that launched him to superstardom.

To be fair, the coach went to prison but Conor never bothered to continue the karate training.

If you really think Floyd struggled with anything that Conor brought to the table then I have a bridge to sell you, Mr. genius.

Thank you for proving my point about being the midwit on the bell curve.

Best boxer in MMA hands down.

I’d put Cindy dandois in the #1 spot there big rig

His boxing is the best we’ve ever seen in mma. I say this as a long time boxing fan and former amateur boxer. He’s the only mma fighter I’ve seen with the correct technique and fundamentals. He’s had so much success literally because of his boxing dummy.

His boxing is shit.
