Barboza is not a bad grappler. He had back to back fights against the 2 greatest in that department. If you get pieced up by Wonderboy and then Till afterwards, are you the worst striker?
Barboza never used to get taken down before Khabib. He's also a bjj brown belt with an amazing abilty to get back to his feet. It's his ringcraft and boxing that needs work.

Lees cardio aint that bad. He had a staph and a brutal weight cut and has never gassed since.
Pettis defintely has poor wrestling. And Nate too. Conors gasses for sure.

Conor has the worst cardio. I think his grappling, especially his sweeps and set ups to escape are very good plus Conor has shown fantastic use of hip technique instead of strength.
Pettis has inexcusable poor wrestling.
Barboza has very poor grappling considering where and whom he has trained with

Conor has the worst cardio in the division and yet has the ability to win a 5 rounder against Nate ‘I do triathlons etc’ Diaz while allegedly running away the whole time.
Most of them have not even trained for a 5 rounder, let alone won one.

That's pretty mean spirited to automatically assume Conor is the worst in all three categories, but if you consider that this is what happened the only times he faced an actual wrestler, or a man larger than him (both conveniantly short notice opponents who never had training camps), then you might conclude something like that.
