And yet, when gassed, everything falls apart. That said, yes, he’s very skilled, but that timing which is a skill, leaves him once he loses his cardio. Take away that, he has nothing else to really fall back on IMO unlike Tony who can maybe submit you off his back or catch you with a wild elbow etc...
I always felt technique is what is left over when strength, speed and agility are gone.
But obviously, Conor has mastered a particular set-up in his striking, the left hand counter and lead uppercut.
Lets ignore his slips and footwork as well as the fact that he defended Khabib's grappling better than his following tittle challengers. How is that you dont bring them as examples for this thread, but you bring Conor?
