I agree with Randy but lol @ using Diaz as an example. You already know what the Diaz bros will do and it's to Just scrap..mentally. You rarely see the Diaz bros actively go for takedowns or try and incorporate it into their striking game. It's usually their opponent who will fly into their guard and get submitted via Mcgregor style. But I'll give Nate credit; he did attempt a few takedowns in the 2nd fight after Conor was beating his face in. But does that really count? If Nate Diaz started off with trying to get Mcgregor to the ground I'd imagine the fight would've been a lot different with Mcgregor being hesitant to strike with him. It was the same deal with Eddie and Mcgregor. Eddie has come out in interviews and admitted to trying to strike with Conor.

Pretty sure what Randy is talking about is that Diaz was able to control Conor in the clinch several times and even got him down from there.

The thing is Diaz is not exactly known for his clinch game or wrestling. Let alone strength.

Khabib though is.

Conor can't afford to give Khabib the same opportunities.

yes, it is a problem for Conor but Khabib's striking and defense is more of a weakness for him than Nate Diaz and Chad Mendez I think.

I’m hoping Mcgregors bitch ass wins just so we can keep some eyeballs on mma. Way too many good fighters not getting seen right now,the Mcgregor circus can help that problem.

Randy is biased against Conor.
He doesnt like his personality.
He's really no better to listen to than Sherdog Conor haters.

That's because I (apparently) was one of the few who didn't get my feelings hurt by her actions.

She's the GOAT, my friend.

So now it’s officially verified that all Sherdoggers are fight experts?

Nate Diaz did not force Conor to a damn thing off his back

Chad did a little bit but barely

My analysis is that Conor is going to win via TKO.

Agreed, that range, that movement, that left hand will land.

Also Ronda is the GOAT btw.

Easy money this time around.

Hes actually about 20x more intelligent than probably anyone on sherdog, especially when it comes to anazyling fights.

Cheat, con artist.

Cheat, con artist.

Also an absolute destroyer in his prime. Just like Honda, Conor and Jones.

You're a fight fan, right?

Nope, I am a Martial Arts fan.

Nope, I am a Martial Arts fan.

Jones, Conor and Honda are all phenomenal martial artists.

 

[Shadowthrone]

He said Mendes and Diaz gave him a bit of trouble with their styles, and Khabib has a style the can give him trouble.
So...Sherdogg is right? What are you getting at here.

 

[QcChopper]

Jones, Conor and Honda are all phenomenal martial artists.

Martial arts start with respect and humility for me, I can't look up to people who are estranged to that concept.
