I think we can all agree that Diaz is bigger than Conor, more well rounder and has better cardio

[Lawblaw]

But with that said, there's a clear blueprint on how to beat the Diaz brothers

 

[The Campos]

Easier said than done

"More well rounder"

 

[Which Doctor]

 

[KONE]

There's a clear blueprint to beat Conor too.

-Don't get inexplicably butthurt at stupid pre-fight insults
-Avoid left hand
-Put him on his back
-Win

"More well rounder"

He meant more skinny-fat.

Yeah, have solid WRESTLING and an elite GAS TANK.


Neither of which Connie has

 

[Curly Peibce]

>Implying Thomson didn't use his wrestling to set up his striking




Lol

How does the Conor of your title implement the blueprint you speak of in your post ?

We all agree...you are delusional.

I wouldn't say Conor is well rounder at all to be honest

One trick pony. That trick is really good though.

 

[Sgt Smith]

I don't think Conor has the skills in his arsenal to beat Nate. He honestly plays right into Nate's strengths.

Clear blueprint? May be clear but its not easy to use if you dont have the tools. Must have better or equal cardio? Better KO power and boxing? Better ability to take a punch themselves? We should also all agree that McGregor has no business in a 170 pound division.

Nate was injured going into that fight and couldn't even train the last week of his camp. You already knew that though.

 

[daltonames]

well, not to say he cant win, but its tough.
conor relies on the KO power in his left.
Diaz can take the left and has a great chin.
Conor relies on volume of strikes, Diaz is a high volume striker.
Conor relies on his reach and size advantage, Diaz is much taller and has the reach advantage on Conor.
Add that Diaz has cardio for days and a high level submission arsenal,this is a very hard fight for conor to win.
That said there is at least a partial blue print to beat Nate, which is leg kicks. i suspect he'll be throwing a lot leg kicks in the rematch.
