Khabib vs. Diaz is the matchmaking of a casual
He beat a very young Holloway, a Poirer before he was a top 5 fighter and edged out an injured Diaz in a SD after getting stopped inside 2 rounds by Diaz coming off the beach. There is another common theme here though, of those 3 guys only 1 ended in a TKO and Tony is arguably a better version of Diaz.He's beaten Diaz, Poirier and Hallloway who are taller than him. Only lost to Diaz and I believe Khabib and him are the same size

I can't see it going well for Conor, unless he can 1 punch KO Tony, which is highly unlikely, he will get worn out and brutally finished.
Lol, sure he would. Just like Conor KOs Khabib and Khabib had never been hit by someone who hits as hard as Conor, or Diaz.Conor knocks Tony out, no problem. Tony is easy to hit and I'm 100% sure he's NEVER been hit by someone who hits as hard as McGregor. Tony's grappling won't be enough to save him; Conor has always had underrated TDD and there's no telling by how many leaps and bounds his grappling has improved after all those months he spent training for Khabib. Conor would outstrike AND outgrapple Tony Ferguson.

Conors punching power has always been drastically overrated, besides Aldo has he been the first guy to stop anyone with strikes like Anderson Siva was with 7 or 8 guys?
He out grapples Tony too eh? Haha, kind of like he was going to choke out Nate and "suprise everyone" when he nullifies Khabibs grappling?
Are you Prologics back up account by any chance?
but but but....Now here me out, we all know Conor needs to win again, he can't rematch Khabib off the bat again. Tony is a very good match up for Conor since he is the better striker and more likely victor.
Now Habibi and Diaz have beef that goes back about 7 years. Wounds heal but memories dont and Diaz slapped Habibi and we all know Khabib stilll wants to put a whooping on Diaz for that. These both bouts would sell close to a million ppvs each. Then we can see Habibi vs Conor next.
Yeah, Tony is hittable but doesn't give a fuck because he has insane recovery and knows his pressure will eventually overwhelm his opponent and break him. Conor isn't exactly known for how well he deals with adversity and his KO/TKO record after round 1 isn't all that impressive.I am not, but I'm here to take up the mantle.
Your points are all stupid. Tony isn't Khabib, he's not the same elite wrestler that he is, he prefers to fight standing up and that's gonna give Conor plenty of chances to crack him. And like I said the first time, Tony is very easy to hit.
Conor's KO power is overrated, eh? Well he has 18 KO's out of 21 wins, all in the first two rounds, so he must be doing something right.

Tony has outgrabbled and stopped guys far more accomplished on the ground than Conor yet somehow you feel Conor will be the one to outgrabble him offering no explanation but my points are the ones that are stupid? Haha.
Yeah, that's super impressive unless you take into account only 4 of them are against top 10 opponents. If you do that though all the sudden it's not so impressive or unusual. In fact many guys have much more impressive KO ratios among top 10 competition and many guy's have more actual 1 punch KOs against top competition.
People act like Conor only has to touch you once and it's all over which facts and history have clearly shown isn't true therfore his power is over rated.
What ever though, your whole argument is based on nothing but delusion so this is pointless.
Tony is a very good match up for Conor since he is the better striker and more likely victor.
His power isn't overrated lol. Like I said - 18 KO's out of 21 wins. And all in the first or second round. If that doesn't convince you of his power, then you're the one who's delusional, not me.
Tony has huge recovery skills, but so what? It's only a matter of time before someone that rocks him manages to pounce on him just well enough to put him away before he can completely recover. Conor could be that guy. Like I said, he's never been hit by a guy who hits like Conor. If f'n Lando Vannata and Anthony Pettis can hurt him, then Conor certainly can.
Ferguson would beat McGregor so bad inside that cage, it would make all of Ireland cry.Now here me out, we all know Conor needs to win again, he can't rematch Khabib off the bat again. Tony is a very good match up for Conor since he is the better striker and more likely victor.
