And Masvidal to freakin' Iaquinta. Point? MMA Math is silly.
Either guy can win or lose and both are very similar, would be a disgusting skrap. The reality is, we really have no idea where Conor is or where he will be come next. He looked terminus vs Eddie, a career high, then we did not see him for years, and he lost to Khabib but looked better than about anyone else Khabib recently fought. Mas lost to Khabib light in Rustam, got thoroughly Khabibed by Maia, and you can not tell much from strikers getting wrestled to death. Nate is the relative litmus test but Conor fought him four years ago, at a time Mas was losing to Bendo sand the mere mention of a Mas Conor fight would have been laughed at.
