Let me first say this. I am pretty nuetral when it comes to Conor. I think he's very skilled but I also think he trys to hard at times. With that being said I think he would crush any featherweight. I dont think Frankie or Aldo have anything for him on the feet. He was beating the shyt out of Nate before he gassed out in the second round.
 
I agree, what Nate did was utilize his reach and volume to neutralize Conor's counter punching and timing. There's literally no one at 145 who can do that

and how pathetic is it for Edgar to celebrate nate when Nate essentially dissed Aldo Edgar and Mendes when he said Conor fights little children and not grown men

the FWs are acting like Nate is their white knight right now
 
Yeah, at FW, he is a beast.

His power didn't transfer up as much to LW, and also Nate has a granite chin.

If he improves his TDD, he will be unstoppable at FW.
 
All I know is he got choked. What any did prior to losing is a moot point really.
I agree about Frankie on the feet, but Conor showed again, put him on his back and you can beat him.
Classic striker v wrestler match up
 
Conor doesn't want any part of Frankie.
 
Those shots Conor hit Nate with would have flattened any fw on the planet. He knocked out Aldo with a short quick hook, not an overhand but a little baby hook! People are underestimating how durable and tough nate is. He got knocked out once and it took 3 or 4 kicks to the head if I remember correctly. Those bombs he landed on Nate will put Edgar away, plus Frankie's chin is already suspect

Edgar and Diaz are friends.
 
at 45, i think edgar and mendes (with a full training camp) plant conor on his back and smash him to pieces. in dominant fashion. i'm also interested in an aldo rematch. i think it could go either way. but yeah, conor would have the advantage over holloway, swansen, oliveira etc.
 
Of course he would, he's far too tall for that division and makes a ridiculous cut to get into it.

He got found out fighting a lightweight fighter.
