Just rewatched the fight. Lets see, Thompson used a lot of movement and conserved his energy well. Check. Great use of low and mid kicks which hurt Nate's movement and cardio. Check. Thompson was very strong in the clinch and oustruck Diaz in it, also had good TDD. This I can't see the smaller Conor pull off, his grappling needs to be very defense-oriented. And of course Thompson finished Diaz off with that perfectly timed head kick. Conor doesn't need to do it such spectacular fashion, but a stoppage on a bloodied Nate who can't see much coming in the later rounds is possible.
Diaz fanboys should keep rewatching this gif to realise their boy's mortality because he's been turned into some unstoppable terminator lately here.
