Conor McGregor vs LW top 10

[Chain Saw]

How do you think Conor McGregor the #1 ranked LW fighter does against the rest of the top 10?

My predictions are

Khabib - Loss
Tony - Loss
Eddie - Win
Dustin - Win
Kevin - Loss
Barboza - Tough pick... Loss. I think Barboza's kicks will be too much.
Gaethje - Win... Would be a brutal KO for McGregor.
Nate - Loss
Chiesa - Win but its a tough fight. If it goes to the ground its all Chiesa.
Iaquinta - Win.

[Azure]

we will never know

 

[BTard]

Conor doesn't fight anymore. Might as well make this about Barney the Dinosaur.

 

[Summoning]

I will bet my house on Barboza if he ever fight Conor.

-Barboza better striker.
-Better Cardio
-Better Chin
-Better hearth
-Always land a wheel kick.

Nate in the top 10? HAHA

He's #8 in the rankings... I copy and pasted that list off the UFC website.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

He has the hands to beat them all... now would he. First he has to beat the court.

A pick em against Poirier
A win against Barboza
Gaethje he can win if he uses his wrestling
Chiesa it's a pick em, I agree with your rationale

TS is only speculating. And most likely Conrad comes back at some point

Conor's game is based on pressure and Barboza is allergic to pressure. Do the math moron..

If that's how we're making predictions, every fighter has a chance to beat every other fighter in their weight class if they can successfully employ their best tools.

Barboza has the kicking power and flexibility to knock anybody in his division out. Khabib has the grappling to takedown and smash everybody in the division as well. Tony also has the scrambling ability/BJJ to catch anybody on that list in a submission. etc.

Barboza only struggles when being pressured by wrestlers/grapplers constantly threatening the takedown.

Name one fight where a boxer/striker backed Barboza up. Good luck with that shit if you're not a wrestler, he will light you the fuck up.

most mma fighters are mentally weak. Conor will dominate them pre-fight and most are not ready for the bright lights that come with fighting on the biggest stage. Aldo and Eddie were beaten men before stepping into the cage.

these guys are used to fighting on undercards.

just look at Khabib. he said he was nervous during the Al fight, wanting to get it over with.

imagine fighting Conor.

people fail to account for the mental aspect because they've never been in the spotlight.

 

[Hardkore]

Their chins are about equal, but while Barboza is the better kicker, Conrad has the better hands by far. And he deals with pressure better than Barboza, who doesn't like to be crowded.

Barboza was dropped by a jab.... a fucking jab

if you think their chins are equal you are obviously on crack

Edgar and Kebab?

Edgar and Kebab?

my bad. meant Eddie. short italians

He took a hellacious beating on the ground by both Kebab and Lee, and remained conscious

That was a solid jab to be honest.

Conor McGregor was rocked by Nate Diaz' 1-2. When's the last time we've seen that happen to any other fighter?

Nate landed damn near 300 punches on Cowboy and never once rocked him. He also outboxed the shit out of MJ but never really hurt him that bad.

But one 1-2 on Conor put him on queer street.
