Conors chances vs Colby/Rda ?

[nick jacoby]

I absolutely hate Conors chance against Woodley tbh. Woodley is too patient and would dominate him.
IMO

But against Colby and RDA? Man tough call. I'd have them both as the favorite but jeesh.
They dont have that composure and patience that Tyron has. Can they bring it to the ground? Yes of course. Would they stand and brawl? More often than Tyron would. And Tyron has better striking defense, patience and power than both of them

If RDA or Colby get this interim title and then beat Woodley somehow? Conor will get the next shot which sounds ridiculous. but true.... And I like his chances of landing those kill shots on them more than I do Tyron..... None of them have that reach that completely flustered Conor like Nate did.

fuck my life

LOL Conor isn't getting next, especially when the two potential fights at 155 are way more profitable.

Rda get next then Till/Usman

Then what was that rumor about Conor vs RDA for the interim belt? Was that all made up?

According to RDA yes, and itend to believe him over Conor. Being a 3 weight champ is pretty good but Khabib in Russia will earn him more imo and then the potential GSP fight. His next fight should be at 155, if he ever comes back that is.

Yes it should be. And we all wanna see Khabib vs Conor more than any other fight.
But having Conor as a 3 division champ..... or just stepping up and fighting for the WW belt is huge also.....makes the "mystique" even more powerful (cringe)

and then he comes back and fights the winner of GSP vs Khabib (which is STILL being rumored all over) in either Canada or Russia $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Am I Brendan Schaub with my thought process? Maybe.... Im looking for drawls.


and Tony Ferguson just chills out and does ninja moves in his garage or something

genuinely

I'm with you on Woodley though, just packs a devastating punch

For all the talk, McGregors a brilliant fighter who would outstrike both, clearly Colby.
Challenge would be CC wrestling but he's well capable

 

[ANIM4L]

Colby > Mendes
Magney > Diaz
for reference

Southpaw vs Southpaw, Conor's over exagerated left would be easier for RDA to deal with.

Definitely. Its hard to fully understand just how good Covingtons wrestling is

I always thought this was funny.. Just messing around obviously... but manhandling at its finest against
an elite fighter

There have been so,so many instances were one fighter says a fight was proposed and the other fighter saying that UFC didn't tell them nothing at all. Just go on Helwani's interviews and youll see. The UFC doesn't like to inform fighters what theyre planning off the bat often times.

Conor KOs Colby, competitive with RDA

 

[Deleted member 546119]

Conor is going to get thrashed next fight. Badly. 2 years out is going to kill him

Conor destroys both.

He wouldve KO'd RDA at 55, no different at 70. Colby was getting outstruck by Maia, Conor eats him alive. Colby is a WW who doesnt cut weight aswell. Conor would Alvarez him.

Its an interesting thought. And honestly a very important aspect when I think about it.

Well if he unretires then he might have some kind of chance, however small.

Right now his chance is to post on IG and he's doing a fucking good job of it.

But we gotta take the ground game into account here. Conor has a great takedown defense yes...
BUT. At 145 and 155.... AND Eddie got fuggin rocked so early in that fight.... Is conor gonna always land those shots before having to avoid those TD's from a WW like Colby? IDK.. A fresh non dehydrated and drained Rda? On the ground? jeeesh... Tough calls.

I feel like the Eddie vs RDA fight makes people think RDA can't take a shot.

I guess Eddie rocked himself in that fight. Colby doesnt even have the standup defence Eddie has. He'd get finished in round 1.
