You compared conor fighting boxers in boxing with pillows on his fists versus much lesser standup fighters with tiny gloves.You’re overrating his power in a big way. As we saw against Floyd, and even little Paulie, he has no real raw power. He has good timing and accuracy, range and poise - and that combined with fighting enraged manlets with no chins and no defence has made his power look far better than it is.
I’ll hazard a guess any big solid 155 pounders like Kebab and Tony will take his shots just fine. They may get buzzed, they may get heavily outlanded and busted up on the feet, but there’s very little chance of them getting 1 punch ko’d.
No one in MMA has the boxing skills of Floyd Mayweather.
Khabib can use this method with his grappling but sure as fuck not standing. Ad I stated in a previous post, only Tony could probably do this.
You also echoed my statement when you only named two fighters out of a division with like 70 fighters...... That is "not many"... Like I said in my original post.
