Conor should go to 155

[mcdowels]

After the diaz fiasco I'm not interested in seeing Conor fight in the 145 manlet division.

He should go to 155 and fight people his own size and learn to deal with the additional weight.

Then if he takes that division, he can re-match nate as the final boss, and then he will have trully achieved greatness.

145 just not that interesting for him anymore

 

[Exbawks]

I doubt he wants anything else to do with the LW division after his last fight. He needs to stick to FW.

 

[eiyuu]

I think he should defend the FW belt a few times before moving up again.

 

[Phillyz]

There is fighters that cut way more weight than Conor but for some reason he gets the most shit for it

 

[yxcv]

Diaz fights in LW too.

 

[OverCoronavirus Pressure]

It's weird to have your suits cut halfway up the forearm.

 

[Csjbo08]

He should at least defend his belt a couple times before moving up IMO.

 

[strawberry]

Disagree. 145 is a hard cut for him, but he always makes it. Everyone around here says he's a natural LW, but can you imagine RDA, Khabib, or even Nate cutting to 145? I don't think they could do it.

Fact is, Conor's kind of a 'tweener. He's the biggest/rangiest FW, but is not as naturally big/thick as most of the people who fight at LW.

 

[TatooNU]

Meh. Mighty Mouse should fight RDA for his first superfight. Conor should move to 155 if anything. The weight cut looks horrible at 145.

 

[Sonny Qc]

After he lose Vs Edgar he will go to 155.
Bet on a Duffy rematch & a couple of "easy" fight.
J-Lau - Sanchez type of fight.
(Sanchez could maybe still wrestle/grapple f*ck him tho)

Mate, I know it's a bitter pill to swallow, but the truth is Conor can't beat guys his own size.
He should stay at 145.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

He just got rocked & choked the f out by a top 10 LW with no training camp.

He's best suited to stay as McMachinist in Midget division

 

[Deleted member 501827]

He still has Edgar at FW and Im interested in an Aldo, Mendes and Holloway rematch but I agree he should be at LW as far as his frame and body goes. You can argue the weight cut to 45 is terrible for his health but so is taking vicious beatings by the elite LWs. Hes in a tough spot.

I'm not sure it is - they make the suits so that when your arms are hanging they go right to just below where the hand starts. so he's lifting his arm it pulls back

Lol I know
But how can you say that the 145 division isn't interesting for him anymore?
I'd like to watch him fight Frankie and Max.
And if Conor sticks around in the division for longer we could watch him fight the next generation of elite featherweights in Doo Ho Choi and Bryan Ortega?

 

[Gbfury]

Shut us all up and fight Edgar at long last.

Also wonder what the new IV dealings will do to him for his next fight should it last longer at 145lbs...

 

[Jay philips]

Did you say rematch Nate to see who the final boss is ? Ummm neither one is a boss at 155 or 170

Only guy I can think of off the top of my head who is established as cutting 'much' more water weight is Barao and he's on a bad run so nobody cares that much at the moment.
