As much disgusted as Ronda's hype machine zombies eating the fleshes off human decency of our society, it was pretty unpleasant to see a lot of her 'loyal' fans throwing her under the bus and jumping and clinging onto the next best thing.
The big difference between Ronda and Conor, at least in my eyes, is that Conor was the real deal and still is.
I can't say I really a fan of him, and I say this because it's true and it's not because I am trying to disguise the fact while trying to make a thread for the sake of Conor, whether you believe it or not, but if you actually watch the fight, Conor dominated Nate Diaz, and I think that in and out of itself was impressive, because I thought Nate would beat RDA and Bendo, frankly, and I think highly of Nate Diaz and Nick Diaz.
Some fans and including Diaz are sounding like he outboxed Conor, but no, in my eyes, it was that one two that changed everything, Conor got caught, with all due credit for Nate, because it had everythign to do with his skills and hard work, it wasn't a lucky punch AT ALL, but Conor was tearing him a new one. And those things happen in fights, but who really is a superior boxer in a fight like that?
It wasn't the case of, like Nate seems to be implying in his interview I saw and some of his fans, taking it slow in the first round and turning it up on the second round as it came earlier to him, if that were the case, Nate would've done a lot better job in the second round until he caught him with a right, but no he was getting his shit pushed in until that point. How many of those momentum changing, fight defining punch landing that shifts everything in favor of a fighter who was losing bad, because Nate was indeed so, have we seen?
We can't really control the outcome, but the process, and it happens, again with all due respect to Nate for landing that one punch.
I thought Conor was going to lose to Mendes and Aldo, if I had to pick with a gun in my mouth, felt that it was a toss up, and stil think that Conor, with a right match up can become three division champ, ONLY IF his punching power carries over to higher weight classes, because I don't know if it was that or Nate's chin, but I don't know if he has the skill set to dominate one single weight division, because like Mendez fight, it looks like he has a hole in his ground game.

Well, Unite Conor Supporters! It's really not cool to throw a fighter under the bus after the loss
