Dustin got greedy and will pay for it

Conor is fooked. He's lost his element of surprise.

What surprise is that? in their first fight, what did Conor do that Poirer had not seen in footage of Conors previous fights?
I say this as a Poirer fan and Mcgregor hater, but as a realist, I hardly see how anyone can be convinced that either will win. It may not be 50/50, but how on earth can anyone see this as a gimme for either?
 
If by "pay for it" means get PAID then yes.

He shoul've walked away with money and 1-1 fluke win in perfect circumstances (long layoff for McGregor) record with GOAT. Now he got greedy and will be KO'd. Only question is will McGregor prolonge this fight on purpose to showcase the difference in skill levels? Or will he start throwing punches with bad intentions from the start? McGregor blocks kicks this time. He also have the advantage on feet and is better wrestler

Have you heard his recent interview with Okamoto, TS? He said he isn't planning to use calf kicks this time coz he knew Conor has prepared for it. What's he gonna do if Dustin uses a strategy that Conor hasn't prepared for in the last 6 months? Head kicks, grapple and go for submissions, take the fight to the deep waters and drown him, etc. Dustin has a lot of surprises for him.

He should still use it. Doesn't take much if you are a hard and precise kicker. If you have good timing and set ups it doesn't matter if people are expecting it, they'll still get hit.

Plus it's a good way to see how comfortable Conor is with his new stance, I'm sure his striking will be a bit off with his new stance if he adjusted his stance for leg/thigh/calf kicks.
 
Dustin will wrestle the fuck out of Conor for 2 rounds and KO him in the third.
Simples.

All Poirier has to do is keep his left foot outside of Conor's right foot and circle away.

Conor has a straight left, and just about nothing else.

Have to be a troll well I hope you're just being a troll
 
Conor will loose again, his "x" factor is gone. All that money he got fucked him up.

Conor has plenty of good techniques, not just a straight left. The question is, how much does Conor really want to win. The money spoiled Conor.

Did you watch the last fight? Did you see Conor throwing combos that were not even touching Dustin? Did you see Conor just moving from the hip up like a Boxer?
Rewatch the fight from a non Conor Nuthugger view, and do not just get hard when Conor lands, take note of all the mistakes he made, and shots that did not land.
I never once saw Dustin wobbled
 
It doesn´t matter if Dustin throws them calf kicks, it´s all about who´s mentally stronger.

Dustin has more in his bag than Conor has, but if Conor lands his fists it´s over.

Dustin by UD.

New stance.... is there footage of this new stance or it's just a hypothetical fantasy that's Conor is entirely going to change his "stance" to block leg thigh & calf kicks. It's not the calf kicks he's gotta be worried about, it's everything. He's not fighting a Boxing bout.
 
Conor is such a master of adjustments that I wouldnt be shocked if he broke Dustins leg with a check after the first kick he tries to throw. The guy can do it all when he puts his mind into it.

There are no other strategies. He tried every strategy in the first fight and they all failed until he got lucky with calf kicks
