At first I thought that RDA was bigger than the guys Mcgregor fought so he could take the punches from Conor but look what Conor did to a big FW like Dustin Poirier, Conor hits hard and has a good boxing and he is going to be big in the fight night too, I can't see dos anjos lasting a lot with Conor I don't think he can handle his punches ,btw I want Dos anjos to win but I think it's very unlikely for him to win
 
Have you watched many RDA fights? He has great cardio and hits very hard, plus he is a very skilled grappler. He's also fighting with amazing confidence at the moment after a string of good wins. I'm picking Conor, but if you can't see how RDA is a threat, well...I don't know what to tell you.
 
Don't see how RDA wins? He has experience beating bigger and better fighters.
 
I suggest you analyze both guys again then.
 
Rafael wins by leg kicking, bodykicking, pushing Conor against the cage, clinching, kneeing and elbowing him and taking him down for a TKO or sub.

Conor wins by falling back and patiently waiting for RDA to close the distance, slipping and countering with a left hand. If Conor wins its going to be in the first two rounds.
 
I never try to pick who will win because I'm wrong roughly 90% of the time but for this fight I'm gonna go with RDA. I think it will be kind of lack luster with RDA all over Connor who will get beat up pretty bad. I think it'll go all 5 rounds with a unanimous decision for RDA.

As statistics have proven this means that Connor will actually win. Probably in the early 3rd by KO but not before he takes a major shit kicking by RDA.
 
Its tough to call. I'm picking McGregor but RDA is no joke. He put Benson to sleep which is no easy feat.
 
Bet your mortgage on Conor TS and post betting slips. This way if Conor wins you win big money, if RDA wins your wish is granted and you become a happy homeless person. You can't possibly lose!
 
If you watched the Pettis fight again, you'd see that RDA actually gets hit but is absolutely unfazed
His chin is legit,man
I think in Round 2 or 3 Pettis cracks him with a nasty headkick and RDA ate it and came forward like it was nothing
 
So basically, you can't see dos Anjos winning because Conor is big and has good punches?
 
Smothering pressure, powerful leg kicks, legit BJJ game, naturally bigger frame due to fighting at LW more often.

Many reasons why RDA wins, only one way Conor wins and that is by KO...don't seem him winning a decision.

In saying that Conors one method to win is a pretty good one but ultimately I can't see how Conor can win if RDA can handle his power...if that happens early Conor will be ground into dust and likely subbed.
 
Whenever I see a post stating "I can't see how x beats y" at this level with both fighters being extremely dangerous in different areas I assume the poster is either extremely stupid or has very little experience/knowledge about the sport.

This is MMA for god's sake. It's getting proven every year that pretty much anything can happen.
 
What do you think about the wrestling and how it will come into play?

RDA's wrestling is heavily overstated on these boards. It is almost entirely cage-dependent. That is why he won't beat Conor.
 
RDA has been destroying people a weight class higher than Conor. I'm not saying Conor can't or won't win but to completely discredit RDA is just irresponsible.
 
I pick McGregor but RDA has some big weapons and they can't be looked past.
