The difference in how Conor McGregor and Tony Ferguson react to being in a bad position.

This 100% Do people not remember that Lee was absolutely handling Ferguson prior to gassing?
Everyone 'handles' Ferguson in the first round, no one can keep his pace, RDA, Lando, Edson, Kevin, Trujillo etc, they all won the first round, gassed then lost.
 
Lee, Ferg & Diaz are pillow fisted. Conor has KO power. Ground & Pillowed to a decision.
 
Funny how you have an Ali AV.....homie went through the same thing Conor is going through. Seemed to be underrated and overrated at the same time.

History will be kind to Conor just like Ali.
Conor has nothing similar with Ali ,
maybe only he wants to try to be like him but he is just doing shit.

funny is that people like you are buying everything.
anyway, will not change the outcome and Khabib will smash your boy
 
What revisionist bullshit is this? Tony's main expertise is his grappling, whilst Conor's is the stand up. Comparing when Conor is in a bad position on the ground to Tony is completely disingenuous.

This is when Conor was in a bad position on the ground, got up and KO'd Mendes.

One would almost think Conor’s torn ACL excuse was complete bullshit after watching that scramble. Almost.
 
Ferguson is just great with his submissions very dangerous to even take him down kinda comfortable standing or on the ground
 
Ferguson might be the most overrated fighter in the history of the UFC. He's a good fighter, but that victory over Lee due to staph overinflated his perceived value.
Tony Ferguson has the longest win streak in the history of the deepest division in the UFC. The guy is incredibly well rounded and fun to watch. Regardless of how you feel about the guy, claiming he is “the most overrated fighter in the history of the UFC” is a bit laughable. So is claiming that Lee only lost because of staph. At the end of the day, kid got schooled.

Lee had a staph infection. That's why he gassed. It had nothing to do with the pace of the fight
 
Go watch how gatekeeper Michael Johnson kicked living shit out of Tony Ferguson. He even had to drop FW recently because he couldn't find any success in LW
With your logic, Duffy still squeezes Conor's neck with the arm triangle...

Or Sitenkov tears his knee off completely this time around...
 
Conor has been training with a world class grappler for over one year now. He also showed improved take down defense in his last fight. So many people based off one fight that happened a few years ago seem to think oh he can’t wrestle or oh he can’t avoid submissions. Believe what you want. I think he is going to come out and look better than ever.
 
Conor, probably.....Cucuy, I'm not so sure.

Khabib had Edson fully mounted, and he was able to survive, and escape.

Tony has an uncanny knack for surviving bad situations as well..

I think Khabib WILL have him in some really bad positions, and probably cause a lot of damage, but I'm interested to see if Ferguson can fight thru it and perhaps come back later in the fight.
while I have absolutely no clue what will happen (so I don't want to claim either guy will win), I gotta point out when Conor fought Mendes.

He surprised me how composed and how he got out from under Mendes.

Granted, Khabib is not Mendes and he will have a full tank.
But again, Conor just surprised me how he was explosive enough to be able to get out from under Mendes.
