Honestly I'm not going to go back on my word when I say Conor round two by knock out. That being said I'm not on board the hype train, but I just think it'll happen.
Conor is a better striker than Aldo; he has stronger hands, never backs up, and is very confident of himself to the point of arrogance - but his performances back up what he claims and he works hard to make himself what he is.
I like Chad and I still get pissed about how Aldo held the fence on him back in the day, and how his mighty manly tears friend Faber never can get to that glorious belt. I don't dislike Chad as a fighter or a person, and I think honestly he has the wrestling talent to really push and possibly break Conor.
Overall I think it'll be a fun but very quick fight; either Conor will fold early, or he'll put Chad away early.
