How does Mcgregor beat Diaz?

[SuBB]

hes got to quit fighting and sparring with manlets

People act like you can just get better cardio lol.

Fluke punch is all he has.

well why did he not break a sweat when he went 3 rounds with max hollaway prob weighing around 155-160 on fight night...even the haters can admit fighting with that much weight on him affected his cardio..hes not built for 170 and never will be...this fight is a mistake

 

[meast]

throw leg and body kicks

Yea, not really, John :>

By the way did you make your location ''Lorenzo's office'' after or before Conor started saying things about that place?

I find Connie very entertaining at times but no, he doesn't influence me that much.

Alright, fair enough.

He could do it in a three-round fight by being more efficient than he was before. But I can't see how he can win a 5 round fight unless he knocks Diaz out, which seems unlikely right now. I also can't see a world where the fight goes five rounds and Diaz doesn't ever get the fight to the ground, at which point it's over.

The big problem is that Conor's defense is largely predicated on movement and slipping more than covering up, because he likes to use those windows to counter-strike, but that is dangerous if he's tired because he's not going to get out of the way fast enough for Diaz's hands. Hopefully Conor corrects that and covers up more when he starts getting winded.

Low Kicks

 

[bearVSshark]

Fight stopped via cut.


Thats seriously the only way I think Conor might win....All that scar tissue on Nate Diaz + ZUFFA/NSAC corruption/incompetence = Conor winning.

I agree bout zuffa is as corrupt as they come

Nsac not so much

 

[Benoitthegr8]

He needs to become a desperation wrestler and spam takedowns, blow his wad in the first round and a half, and not put Diaz away early = keys to success for McGregor.

Low Kicks

This would legit be a game changer but Conor doesn't really throw leg kicks, for whatever reason. I assume because those are the kicks that are easiest caught for takedowns. His teep kicks etc are a bit more difficult to capitalize on.

 

[Frenchfighter02]

low kicks, oblique kicks, they worked well early when he used them...More footwork, and throw less volume. Not try to get a KO on Nate.
Accumulate damage like he did, Nate will cut and swell easily and quickly...keep punching his bloody face, the doctor will stop it.

 

[benebox]

A sit load of oblique kicks should do the trick.

 

[Rum]

At this point if Mcgregor is really serious about beating Diaz, what does he have to do?

Grow another 3 feet taller.
Grow another 2 inches of reach.
Grow another 1 heart, to replace the one which quits on him when things aren't going his way.

 

[Noleggeisha]

A knockout.

 

[ZuffaExecutive]

Movement.

He could use his footwork and evade to stall the action and put the fight at a lower pace,this would frustrate nate and allow him to come in and clip him.But if he does what he did the last fight he needs to stop head hunting and whiffing.Its very hard to ko a diaz so go to the body and legs,and dont load up on 1 shots that miss half the time.
