Frankie is PHYSICALLY too small, I mean I know that Conor doesn't have Aldo's TDD but Aldo was ragdolling Frankie's little ass around every time he shot in.
Edgar isnt going to take him down at will. Hes not as good as chad on the ground and doesnt have as good of takedowns. Conor could probably stuff him just by being physically strongerChad Mendes kept Conor on the ground and beat the absolute dogshit out of him though. His problem was that he was gassed out of his mind and went for a desperation guillotine. If he had anything left in the gas tank he probably would've been content to sit on top of Conor and keep pulverizing him.
But yeah, Edgar/Conor isn't a one sided fight one way or another. On one hand, Edgar's cardio and wrestling would give Conor problems. Conor would have to finish Edgar early because he's not likely to outlast him. On the other hand, Conor is the hardest hitting FW with a decent punch selection and Edgar has taken big shots before.

You have much to learn when it comes to discerning trolls and shitposters from genuinely delusional fans.Tons of people are saying that. Pay attention.
It's okay, you clearly haven't been watching MMA for very long. You'll soon realize that styles make fights and anything can happen.Ok this is mentioned alot around here and its laughable. Frankie 100% wouldnt beat conor i would bet money on that and ill tell you why.
1.Hes too small. Plain and simple, conor is a big FW who packs a huge punch at that weight and has a 74 inch reach no FW is going to outstrike him on the feet. Conor would pepper him with straight lefts and would probably be the first to finally knock frankie clean out. Frankie couldnt deal with aldos speed and range ,aldo made him look like he has everlast written on his forehead.How is he going to deal with someone even rangier and more powerful?.
2. The main reason the frankie fans think he beats him is because of his "tremendous wrestling". Yeah thats right, they think hes just going to take conor down and keep him down for 25 minutes lmao. Chad mendes who has much better wrestling credentials and allegedly juiced couldnt keep conor down for more than 2 rounds and eventually had to stand up and get knocked out. Frankie wont do any different. I can see some wrestlers at 155 giving conor alot of trouble but not at FW .
Conor wrecks anyone at FW .
You have much to learn about people that hate Conor then.You have much to learn when it comes to discerning trolls and shitposters from genuinely delusional fans.
i think the whole chad gassing thing is just an excuse. conor has only been past the 2nd round once or twice in the in the ufc he isnt really known for having great cardioI still think Edgar is a bad matchup for McGregor, and I would pick Mendes over McGregor if they fought again and Mendes had a full camp. It looked like Mendes gassed himself early trying to finish it early since he probably knew he wasn't conditioned to go 5 rounds.
The fight definitely could end up with McGregor picking Edgar apart on the feet, but his defensive wrestling is nowhere near Aldo's, and Edgar is as durable as they come.
Watch it again, Conor out landed Chad in both rounds, and dominated the standup.the fight i saw, conor was on his back for the majority of fight eating elbows, until chad gassed (due to taking the fight on 10 days notice).
HAHAHAHA. Every single fucking time Conor fights, you bums love to say "He's got a punchers chance but (name of opponent) is far superior".7 /10 times - Frankie beats Conor
Frankie won't gas after 2 or 3 rounds , outpoint / outwrestle Conor from there.
Conor has the punchers' chance & reach to win early on rounds.
