Conor has been doing well off on his on but he really needs to train in America asap

Where should he go?
1. Tristar
2. Jacksons
3. C.Gracie
4. ATT
5. AKA

AKA and Tristar would be best for him imo needs to work on his ground game with top level wrestlers..

Working with the diaz bros and shields i think is not a bad idea as well with dangerous guard attacks. If Conor is really humble in defeat he should try and reach out to bigger camps and cut this bullshit with being loyal to your country by training in ireland

he is still so young i think he is wasting his potential too much here
 
The featherweight champ who has looked unbeatable and considered by many the p4p best fighter in the world, moves up to 170 and puts on a stella performance against a larger man and perennial top contender, and you suddenly think he needs to change camps? Its so utterly ridiculous that I just had to comment. Conor has work to do like every other fighter, but he has found an environment and set of teachers and partners that have worked brilliantly for him. In fact, many would argue his coaches and training methods are ahead of the game. ..
 
Maybe he should stop taking Salsa dance classes with Ido Portal and take some Jiu jitsu classes more often
 
Fly in Edmond
 
After the shit he gave to RDA for moving to America I guess Conor is doomed to remain with John Minion Kavanagh and Ido Touch-Butt Portal
 
He needs to stick with Ido and bring in Mike Dolce for his dieting and add Edmond to his team to improve that boxing.

Not but in all seriousness I think Tristar would be a solid team for him. He needs coaches that will strategize for him and teach him how to take a fight out of the first round. They will also be a solid team to help him improve the holes in his ground game.

But it will never happen because he ran his mouth about abandoning your home country. He gave shit to RDA for moving to the U.S, but look at all the improvements Dos Anjos made when he tried new things. He talked himself into a corner, if he changes camps he's a hypocrite.
 
His camp didnt even train him to fight diaz,they trained him for RDA. imagine how stupid itd be to leave them for that.

He himself, like many others.. Said he does not train for a specific fighter. Not sure why casuals seem to think that every fighter must train for that certain opponent. In the real world, it does not happen like such often, it happens, but rare is the occasion. Imo, it is smart to train length/height/walk around weight of an opponent, but even then, skill sets can change.

If Conor and his team were smart and truly looking after the longevity and future of his career, they would send him to train with Dom Cruz and Alliance, Donald Cerrone and Jackson/Wink, or with Pettis and Roufsport. I such because those three are solid strikers who have above avg MMA ground games for striking based fighters.. Dom and Cerrone with his wrestling, and Pettis with Jitz. I could see him heading to Tristar, but doubt he will do so. If he wanted to make a move while still making headlines, he could head out to Elevation and train with TJ. AKA, Alpha Male, Team Black (Diaz bros fight team, Gil's fight team is Skrap Pack, which Diaz bros and Jake are not a part of, their team together is Team Gracie Fighter), Skrap Pack, Blackzillians, ATT, Blackhouse, etc.. Will not accept Conor in the gym, period point blank.

They would def had done something to combat the reach advantage no matter what you think you know.
 
People always seem to mention Tristar, but it seems like they've been on a decline since GSP retired. For as much shit as people give the Blackzilians for going on an occasional losing skid you never here any criticism thrown Tristars way. Outside of Rory, any other standout fighters currently training out of there?
 
Conor and Ronda needs to train with each other, help fill in each other's weak spots.

And with it, of course the unintended consequences of their personalities rubbing off on each other.

Im a conor fan but who in the right mind thinks he was p4p best fighter??
so if you were a fighter and have a chance to train anywhere in the world you would be in ireland?? damn if tyron spong was in the UFC and talked shit he would have been p4p best by your standard
 
Really!
A fighter loses once he should leave camps?! There are cases where fighters should change camps, but Conor? Absolutely not. Maybe when he's on a three fight losing streak he could consider it. But a champion moving up two weight classes and losing is not something that should make you consider a team change

LOL

Well substituting Ido's tango lessons with some wrestling/BJJ would be a fine start. Josh Mario John has better grappling.
