Reason Conor hasent defended a belt?

in the liver said:
the correct counterpoint is cain vs jds. junior bodied cain in his second fastest ufc victory. guess cain is just not on juniors level

the only reason aldo never got a rematch is that the ufc are greedy

That is not the correct counter point, and anyone who cites it is being lazy or doesn't really watch this sport.

Aldo has used that same entry in several other fights. It is not some "out of character" technique that he used. He used it because he has historically been faster than his opponents and it opens up other combinations. Aldo's entire game is based on being faster and more explosive than his opponents. Conor simply takes that away from him and turns it 180 degrees against him. Aldo has to engage Conor, and we have seen first hand how dangerous that is.

It was completely out of character for Cain to just stand in JR's striking range. Everyone knew that if he did that again he would lose again. But if he went back to doing exactly what he was know for, smothering his opponents, he could win.

I never believed that Matt Serra was better than GSP. I predicted on several occasions that Cain would defeat JDS in the rematch. i don't just take wins at face value. Conor is better than Jose Aldo. It's just how it is and citing other fights that have nothing fundamentally in common with this one doesn't change that.

definitley, i stated many times alveraz is the eaiest win in the top 5 for conor. a sloppy puncher who rushes straight forward and throws away a game plan to brawl is a easy win for someone as good as conor. I thought eddie wouldnt look as bad as he did, but yea frankie and aldo are tougher fights for him for sure

Ah well I guess conor should never be allowed to fight again since he gassed against nate twice. Having shown that fighters cant change their approach, no athletic commission should sanction gis fight, same as aldo will always be caught out the way he was against conol
 
because it's much more fun fighting at HW, going on maternity leave, fighting nate diaz over and over until he wins...

eatin' steak for breakfast. bein' playful wit it.
 
Conor doesn't want to fight Aldo because Aldo pulled out of one of the most marketed fights in the history of the promotion at the last minute.
 
When his next fight is booked complain about who he isn't fighting. He'll be fighting a tough matchup whoever it is.
 
Oh boy the Conor hate.

Taking on Chad on 14 days notice while injured wasn't a "risky fight"?
Taking on Diaz on short notice wasn't a "risky fight"?

You fat bitter virgins always find a way to shit on a successful person.

Who said anything about not allowing Aldo to fight again? Now you're just being dramatic. Grow up, peter pan. I'd ask you what you believe Aldo will do differently to beat Conor, but I know the only thing you will say is "Leg Kicks" and "be more patient this time."

Conor is too smart, too quick, and too powerful for Aldo. We know Aldo's chin can take the shot. We know it's unlikely Aldo can take Conor down with any regularity. We know Conor is quicker than Jose. We know Conor is better at analyzing his opponents.

Remember when Faber was ever even remotely similar to Conor as a fighter? I don't.

Your point is mute; he still sent Faber to the hospital for absolutely shredding that lead leg, something Conor likes to stick out there once in a while if you haven't noticed. Either way, I will let you off the hook. Nuthuggers gonna be nuthuggin.

Nah, we just find ways to shit on the nuthuggers who classify Conor as the GOAT, which he clearly isn't. Thats all.

If you actually think Conor has quicker reflexes than Aldo, then, wow... That is some serious nuthugging

lol.

First of all, the word is "moot" not "mute." That one is free. Try and remember it.

Second of all, Faber and Conor are two totally different animals. If anyone's point is MOOT here it's your's.
