If I came from the future and told you that Conor/Khabib ends in the first round, but I didn't tell you who wins, who would you bet wins? Same question for the Conor/Cucuy matchup? I'd pick Conor in both cases.

Now I'll expand it to every round:

If Conor/Khabib ends in round 1, Conor probably wins
If Conor/Khabib ends in round 2, Conor probably wins
If Conor/Khabib ends in round 3, Khabib probably wins
If Conor/Khabib ends in round 4, Khabib probably wins
If Conor/Khabib ends in round 5, Khabib probably wins
If Conor/Khabib goes to decision, Khabib probably wins

If Conor/Cucuy ends in round 1, Conor probably wins
If Conor/Cucuy ends in round 2, Conor probably wins
If Conor/Cucuy ends in round 3, El Cucuy probably wins
If Conor/Cucuy ends in round 4, El Cucuy probably wins
If Conor/Cucuy ends in round 5, El Cucuy probably wins
If Conor/Cucuy goes to decision, Conor probably wins

You?
 
What am I doing with my life?
 
So basically either guy beats him after round 2?
I think the way they will pressure Conor he will be gassed miss first round
 
Who the hell knows how conor performs at this point? From the sounds of it he might not come till the end of the year, if ever? So took a year to have a baby and now another to get over his boxing payday hangover.. with the only physical competition he was in being said boxing match. At this point and his supposed return time I got kabob or tony finishing him in the early frames.
 
After Conor outlasted Nate at 170 and went 10 with Mayweather (while winning half), I have given up on the idea that he has no heart/chin/balls/gas tank to the point where El Cucuy will beat him. Khabib tho, his game is so dominant that and aggressive that he will either get Aldo coming in reckless or he will give the Connie Haters the beating they have long dreamt of.

Khabib is the greatest P4P fighter we have ever seen: fact. The matchups that intrigue me the most tho are Khabib/Woodley or Usman (who I think is the best 70er in the world). To give people clarity and perspective on my sentiments, know that him and Rockhold apparently are even in the gym sparring sessions, and we all know what Rockhold did to Weidman and how fucking dominant he is when that weak ass glass ass chin is protected by head gear. For crying out loud, Rockhold apparently even splits rounds with DC and Cain, and Khabib is a 55'er that is on their level - he is the greatest P4P fighter yet.
 
how long did it take u to think about those predictions?

If it goes passed the 2nd in either match up, he more than likely loses.

Wasn't that much easier to say?
 
If Conor/Khabib ends in round 1, Khabib probably pounds him out

If Conor/Cucuy ends in round 1, Ferguson probably chokes him out
 
Conor-Tony
Rounds 1, 2 finish: Conor
Rounds 3-5 finish: Tony

Conor-Khabib
Round 1 finish: Conor
Rounds 2-5 finish: Khabib

In both cases, I think Conor would have to get the KO in the first round or two. If he goes past the second round, I think Conor gets finished. With the kind of pace and aggression that Tony and Khabib bring, I don't see either of those fights going the distance. A gassed Conor absolutely does not survive multiple rounds against either guy. But he certainly could land a kill-shot of his own in the early rounds.
 
Conor within first 2, Khabib or Tony after that based on those scenarios, saying that Khabin can give a couple of rough rounds, but it's just how I'd imagine it.
