Nate is perhaps the easiest fighter to plan against

[Zeppeling]

There are no tricks or treat. He has no handy footwork, hand combinations or takedown chains. The man is so consistent he won't change his gameplan when losing.

Conor, on the other hand, has flashy footwork, handspeed, angles, combinations and transitions. As far as striking goes, he is harder a fighter to prepare for than anyone.

Pair those with Nate's lack of preparation for the hardest fighter to prepare against and the stylistic gift that has been given to Conor and we have a massively lopsided fight. McGregor has prepared for Aldo, then Mendes, the RDA and now gets to fight Diaz??

Anyone who thinks that Diaz has a dog in this fight are so jaded it's O_O

Once again, I guess TS didn't see Nate's last fight.

 

[trblesome1]

Haha the moment that look of panic sets in on his face and he realizes this isn't fun anymore

 

[Zeppeling]

Riiiight. Go catch some likes in another thread, loser.

@Vikassi , Johnson fell from his kicks, and he's orthodox. He's also got overrated striking. If you think pillow, slow, no footwork, no headmovement 1-2s are going to beat Conor then you are a fan of the wrong sport.

There can be no argument for this statement

Nate is an easy fighter to plan against... If you're a wrestler. Never if you're a striker, unless you have some good roundhouse leg and body kicks, which Conor doesn't.

Also Nate doesn't have hand combinations?

Watch Diaz vs Cerrone or Diaz vs MJ. Nate will box you up and make it look easy.

The thing is, both Diaz brothers are wild cards. You never really know what to expect. They both come to fight, don't mind taking chances, and actually can perform well when the stars line up. Is Diaz a huge underdog, sure, Nate's definitely the likely cannon fodder in this fight, but you can never fully count out his ability to turn things around in any fight and shock the world.

Yawn.

Anyone making blanket statements like they know for certain that a fighter has no chance is beyond laughable. This is the fight game, and anything can happen.

This is just another Conor nutsack gargling thread amongst the other thousands of them. Get off mommy's computer and go to school.

You probably thought Michael Johnson would KO Diaz as well.
