McGregor’s bottom game

BJJ bottom game: D-
Wrestling bottom game: B-
G&P bottom Defense: A
 

A very nicely done butterfly sweep from Conor against Nate. He's always been very technical, even on the ground but he'll always resort to cheating and panic wrestling because he has shit cardio and weak character.
 
I’m by no means a Conor fan but I reflect re watched the khabib fight and was impressed on how Conor did on the ground at least in the early rounds he was able to sprawl and get back to his fight until he started to gas
 
Click bait title

I came in expecting touch butt gifs
 
He actually has a decent game until he gives up. Being subbed by Khabib is a pretty normal outcome

Curious what opinions are out there on this:

We’ve seen McGregor spend a lot of his time on bottom against some of the more pressure heavy wrestlers like Khabib and really take a pounding. Also has a history of being choked from behind in the khabib and Diaz fight for instance.

His top game has always been there, and he finishes quickly when he gets to control distance and then hammer his opponents out.

But I wonder where he’s spending his time in preparation for his comeback.

Love to hear your takes.

Not sure if this is sarcasm about recent mma headline news or legit analysis on grappling skills.....

Yeah man, you're a total whitebelt when you've:
  • escaped submissions
  • escaped crucifixes
  • escaped mounts
  • reversed
  • swept
Elite grapplers like Khabib, Mendes, Dustin, Diaz, Barao, etc.

Like, you do realize you make THEM look bad when you try and shit on Conor's grappling, right? You do realize that's all you're doing when you downplay him instead of crediting the things he's done? I'd hate to hear what you think of them if you're thinking a guy who was able to grapple with them sucks.

Let alone that he was promoted to brown 9 years ago dude. And has been grappling for at least 15. By simple time standard alone he'd be black under like 99% of grappling schools standards and nobody would blink an eye.

The only reason he hasn't been promoted is pretty clearly his profile. Kavanaugh and Danis are aware dudes like you are going to shit on him no matter what happens and so aren't promoting him until he's long past the normal standards of black.

Thank you for being another example of someone who just throws up complete strawmens and diversions to avoid talking about what actually happened during the 2nd round kimura attempt that Khabib failed on because he amateurishly attempted submission before position and so was beat by Conor actually having the correct position to defend it.
 
Can't tell if I am too stoned or TS is trolling everyone with his play on words.
