It was a hell of a lot closer than you make it sound, that's for damn sure.
Conor clearly won R1
Conor won R2, but you could argue Nate stole the round at the end.
Nate Clearly won R3 (one judge even had it a 10-8)
Nate won most of R4 (the same way R2 went for Conor) but Conor stole it at the end of the round (the way you can argue Nate stole R2)
Nate Clearly won R5.
Nate clearly won 2 Rounds.
Conor clearly won R1
Round 2 and Round 4 could have gone either way.
I'm fine with the decision, I can see why the judges gave Conor those rounds but would have no issue with them scoring them the other way or even 10-10.
But keep fucking that chicken. If you tell enough people Conor dominated the fight, it'll eventually stick.
When you think of someone dominating a fight - you don't think majority decision.
Nate dominated him in the first fight and arguably won the second.
What embaressingly cringe worthy posts from obvious salty Conor hating newbs/salty Diaz pot smoking fantard newbs
First off, lets not ignore that Conor was doninating Nate in the 1st fight too...until he gassed...and that Conor took that fight on short notice...
What happened when both finally had a full camp?
"If I have a full camp he wont touch me"
LMAO
As for the rematch, Conor hating newbs/Nate's pothead loser fantards, lack any ability to think criticially
If you out class someone in 3 of 5 rounds but barely lose 2 rounds...does that still mean it was close because on scorecards it read 3-2...
Fuck no
If you actually watch the fight, and know what youre watching, you see that one fighter was clearly out classed the majority of the fight, and just barrly managed to win his rounds
Fights arent scored in totality, ITS ROUND BY ROUND...and a fighter CAN win his rounds far BIGGER then an opponent won theirs
That was essentially Conor vs Nate
Conor absolutely dominated his rounds (1,2,4)
Where as Nate barely won his 3rd round
(watch that round again without Rogan's insanely biased commentary where he would orgasm over anything Nate did and ignore anything Conor did)
Conor was actually controlling the first 3 to 4 minutes of round 3, out boxing Nate and landing the far cleaner better shots with superior countering..
Nate then ends the round with a desperation flurry in which Conor was still deflecting, rolling, and dodging the vast majority of Nate's arm punches, while stepping off and countering - or while sneaking in wicked body shot interruptions which eventually gassedNate out
If Nate's round 3 was so "damaging" or "effective" then why was Conor able to TOOL Nate in round 4?
Exactly
It showed how Nate's round 3 was all smoke and mirrors..and not truly anything effective
The much smaller Conor was playing rope a dope to conserve energy while countering...and yet the UNeducated Rogan was busting a nut to Nate's INeffective flurries while shitting on Conor.
And then when you look at round 5
Nate did nothing but try to squeek out a last second TD. Conor WON that round 5. Scored a TD of his own and laned the FAR BETTER SHOTS
It was a 25 minute fight and Conor literally DOMINATED about 22 minutes of it
Regardless of what score cards said, Conor OUT CLASSED Nate badly
^thats what an out classing looks like
A 195lb Nate was drpped 3 times by a 168lb FW Conor...LMAO
Nate cant beat anyone his size. Conor beats much bigger opponents
Look at Nate's badly disfigured face...while Conor's face was as clean and smooth as a baby's bottom
If 3 knockdowns and a badly beaten up face isnt an out classing, then tell me what is
then NO ONE else has ever been out classed in MMA history
Conor TOOLED the fuck out of Nate
It wasnt close at all...
