I don't think he has. Conor is really great striker and well rounded, but I feel that his boxing is his bread and butter,..

First punch Nate ever slipped.
Yeah, Conor's boxing is his best attribute. He has more punches than the 1-2.
 
Prepare for the

"Even Thomson and Bendo out struck him."

As they casually forget those shots were set up off of successful takedowns.
 
That's why this fight is so intriguing. Nate only has to worry about kicks to the body if he can stifle conor's boxing.

He actually did fairly well in avoiding MJ's punches. Showed improvements there.
 
Melvin was beating his ass pretty bad standing up but for some reason Nate down and got choked.

I don't think I've seen Mcgregor throw a jab let alone a 1-2. He usually just stirs the pot a little with the right, hand fighting a little before blasting the left.

He 1-2'd Mendes right in the face. Same with Brandao.
 
He got whooped standing by Thomson even though he's a wrestler.
 
I wouldn't call Gomi a boxer. He's more of a drunken brawler. Almost literally
 
Yeah....Nate lands a lot more punches than Conor does....because the Conor fight is over already.

Besides Maynard he hasent TKO'd anybody in 6 years and he has 0 KO's ever.

Pillow fists.
 
Diaz brothers need people to stand in front of them to win exchanges, and most MMA fighters have very poor boxing, so they end up doing just that. Conor has excellent understanding of distance, footwork and timing. He will be hit Im sure; Nate has a nice 1,2, but Conor is gonna be A LOT faster, and will be attacking him from angles, along with an array of kicks and spinning kicks to the legs and body, and high kicks. He also has been practicing the uppercut a lot in this camp, since it works well on fellow southpaws.

We don't know about his speed at WW.
Now he has to get on Nate reach if he wants to trow that uppercut.

Also, I thought he said he doesn't prepare for his opponents...
 
Connor only has kicks on nate. Boxing wise he shreds connor.
