Remember when Frankie was supposedly Conor’s kryptonite?

[OneToeKO]

I member.

Conor haters report.

After Conor dismantled the featherweight division and subsequently coffined Edward to become double champ, you idiots insisted Frankie would beat McGOAT. If they fought Conor may literally kill Frankie.

I just want all haters to know that people don’t forget.

Frankie would have beaten the shit out of Conor back then

 

[myjohnson9]

Conor ducked cub and somehow got a title shot even though cub was on an 8 fight winning streak at that time

 

[Chubi]

Unfortunately it seems like everybody knew, even Cub himself, that he would never beat Aldo, even during his winning streak.

 

[flowoftruth]

so many people dont know anything about fighting yet they wanna push their stupid opinions on masters of the game like myself.

 

[GraciesFrontKick]

Frankie Edgar
Donald Cerrone

Reach for the sky contardsHe will be version 3.0 if he beats Edgar right?

 

[I WILL CUT YOU]

"Dismantled the FW division."

How so, he had 3 top 10 wins and 0 title defenses.

 

[BEER]

Conor and the company cherry picked their way to the top and will continue to do so if it means paychecks.

Aldo, who people were talking about being out of his prime after the Florian fight ffs, was his most memorable performance.

 

[C0NCH3TO]

Frankie is too tiny for McGregor.

 

[The XL]

Frankie would have pasted Conor in 2015.

 

[Loiosh]

Frankie is done now.

While I would have considered him a favorite a few years ago, Frankie always took shots, and Conor is a killer.

We'll never know, because no way was Conor going to fight him except for a title. Or on super short notice. Or if Frankie was injured.

 

[flowoftruth]

I think nik lengthz would give conor a good fight

 

[King Joffery]

Conor ducked cub and somehow got a title shot even though cub was on an 8 fight winning streak at that time

It was 6 compared to Conors 5.
Conor had just starched Poirer in about 90 seconds whilst Cub only decisioned him.

It was an absolute no-brainer to have Aldo fight the guy on the hottest tear. Thank god you weren't match maker as you would have given us a one-sided Aldo beatdown of a guy he already easily beat.

 

[MEAN357]

I love frankie but he's nobodies kryptonite lmao he's been done for years getting bounced around division after division losing to champs and top 5.

Great fighter, awesome skillset, too old and too small.

 

[Cherry]

What a weird thread

 

[laleggenda27]

I suspect that in 2015, Frankie would have given Conor the Yair treatment. It's not a coincidence that the UFC never scheduled Conor against a single wrestler in a division full of wrestlers (no, Mendes wasn't a scheduled fight, it was a late replacement).

 

[Murder_KickHC]

Frankie gets KTFO in the very first exhange at any point of their careers

 

[Jean-Claude_Bloodsport]

Conor beats every featherweight in the world at any point in history . FW Goat Conor McGregor

 

[The XL]

If Conor thought he could have beaten Edgar, he wouldn't have ducked him in favor of Mendes.

 

[Pitier of Fools]

Frankie five years ago would have beaten down Conor worse than Khabib did. Now he's old and has no chin.
