I don't think this meme is used enough. Well done.
Conor's implementing what Bruce Lee taught many years ago - throw straights.
Conor launches his straights down the pipe once he see's Mendes begin to plant and turn his hips....telegraphing - easy to learn easy to master.....work on it young bucks coming up.
74: Total strikes landed by McGregor. By comparison, Mendes landed 36. The SBG Ireland product outlanded his foe 28 to 16 in round one and 46 to 20 in round two. McGregor also held a 46-to-31 edge in significant strikes.
Chad didn't do much of anything with his takedowns in round 1, except use Conor standing up to land half of his significant strikes. Yes, he was winning the 2nd round until Conor got to his feet and started blasting him. But, had it gone to a third, Conor would have stolen the round by nearly finishing Chad. Chad landed like 3 or 4 good elbows in the 2nd, but most of his stuff was just grazing.
Edit: Bolded is the official Sherdog by the numbers.
Another by the numbers
4: Takedowns landed, in seven attempts by Mendes. McGregor had not been taken down in his previous five UFC appearances. 3 of which Conor escaped back to his feet before Mendes could do anything. One of which happened near the end of the round where Mendes did nothing.
I'm glad you posted this because I had no idea Conor landed anything here, while I thought Chad landed twice. I didn't see Conor's left and I didn't see that Chad's right missed.
Regarding the force of Conor's straight punch against Chad's hook, I'm not sure who came out on top. They both looked like good but not great shots.
This again?
Conor landed a short grazing shot, then gets smacked with a left hook.
This was an excellent troll thread when it was posted THE FIRST TIME btw..
You Conor haters truly are delusional. Its insane. Youre not even worth a serious response. Take the time to truly understand whats going on. Watch the gifs closely. Read my OP. Educate yourself. Come back, thank me and aplogise
He stood up because Mendes went for the same guillotine attempt twice. He didn't even know if he was fighting McGregor or not until a few days out from the fight and he was injured lol still gave McGregor hell.
McGregor landed probably 2-3 meaningful body shots and no he wasn't 'visibly wilting', I really don't understand where the McGregor fans get that shit. No, it was generally scored for Mendes since McGregor was controlled in that round.
And yes, he was getting his ass kicked. Just stop.
Pretty sure most of Conor's strikes were from his back.
I'm sure chad, who has the reach of a T. rex, is used the the reality that in order for him to land, he might have to eat one to get inside...this isn't a new concept and not limited to Conor.
Dc had to eat one to get into clinch distance with Jon and allow himself the ability to blast Jones with his own upper cuts.
Do you think this is satire or is this guy serious? Cause I see a grazing punch being landed on the forehead by Conor and then a hard hook being landed by Mendes on Conor's upper jaw.
