How would dustin exhaust conor?

[Kono dio da!]

Conrad. Bad cardio. Good power. Slick. Fairly elusive. Beaten poirier before, brutally even.

It was widely agreed that Dustin would be best served exhausting colin. What would the best way be? Standing and trading, defending etc may not be the way imo. I don't think conor would sleep him with the first few punches... Not even gaethje could do it. But it's risky.

Would trying to wrestle him be a good idea? Coron has good tdd, but it's not bulletproof. Would that work or would dustin exhaust himself trying? His takedowns are decent. He snuck one in on gaethje ffs

Would wall n stall be a good idea? Wall n stall and dirty boxing? Going full usman?

Teeps and refusing to engage?

What do y'all think would work? I'm sure he and his team have a smart way of doing it and they aren't thinking of swanging and banging.

Just do what Dustin does and hope for the best. Dustin's opponents are usually super gassed when he finishes them off anyway. His style is exhausting to keep up with.

 

[BForrester]

By lasting longer than 2 rounds? Conor has a lot of strong suits, but cardio (and heart) isn't one of them.

Poirier needs to keep Conor guessing, threaten him with takedowns/attempts so atleast Conor
can have that in his mind. Poirier was tagging Conor in the first fight, but it wasn't good enough, Conor ate most of those shots, but this is a different fight with different weight and how they adapt. Poirier seems to be much better being hydrated at least where he can take a shot at LW. Poirier should use every style in the book the nullifies pressure fighters, wall and shall, lay and pray and running. Hopefully Conors gets tired.

Conor 2.0. Dustin already lost.

Conor 2.0. Dustin already lost.

May as well hand him the belt. Conor is broly. His power is maximum, right? Did i get that right?

 

[BHR]

refusing to engage with hands especially dustins right hand that should be glued to his face first 2 rounds

kicking conors leg and body and making him miss would make him gas

watch diaz 2 conor used a similar tactic against diaz he was kicking diaz alot so he himself doesnt gas as he knew he couldnt ko nate this did throw off nate and severely injured nates leg

its no secret conor has bad legs knees foot?, but yet noone goes after them

 

[RedFoxNdisBihhh]

Leg kicks , snapping the jab , and staying elusive in 1-2 rounds .. hit gas 3-4-5


problem is we are guessing on the conor we havent seen in quite sometime

i think cardio and athleticism have grown though so its gonna be interesting

By chin to fist combinations

 

[Murder_KickHC]

Dustin cant win but he should try to go out in style.

 

[Whoa Nelly]

Just do what Dustin does and hope for the best.

exactly this. They're both at an age now - they know what their best is. You saw What happened to Justin trying a completely new, tailored for khabib strat.
Conor and Dusty, let's just have the fight lads.

Hater.

 

[moogie101]

Leg kicks, takedowns and grappling either on the floor or against the cage.

Just needs to avoid punching with Conor and he has a great chance to take advantage of Conor's legendary poor cardio.

 

[axe wound]

By dragging him deep into the 2nd round

 

[EXOICHO]

i dont think dustin survives conor's onslaught. he's extremely hittable.

really this will come down to his defense and his chin. if he survives the 2nd round conor is fooked

 

[Mangar]

Best Dustin can do is know that he lost to the GOAT. He has zero chance of winning.
