When people say Conor can knockout his opponent, do they not understand what they're admitting?

[ewww21]

Do you use this logic against Silva? Or Overeem?

No because ffs, they can GRAPPLE if need be. Idk what's difficult to understand about that.

 

[blaseblah]

Huh? Conor can't grapple? He grapplefucked Max, defended a Mendes Guillotine perfectly and outgrappled Eddie and Nate in the rematch. He's a way better grappler than the Reem we've seen in the UFC who looks lost as soon as he's on his back.

 

[Redhawks100]

Duffy and Diaz have both been ranked at a weight class higher than Conor's, and he lost to Duffy two years after he started grappling.

Anderson has lost to countless guys that wouldn't even be signed int the UFC in his prime. He got knocked stiff by a wrestler. That's like Conor being knocked down by Khabib. lmao

Stop crying and accept reality. I'm speaking facts, and they aren't nor ever will be on your side.

Countless lmao wtf?

Anderson was knocked out in his 38th fight at the age of 38 while he was showboating with his hands down. Conor was beaten on the feet in his prime after throwing a horrid uppercut and getting hit with a simple 1-2. He then got the shit beaten out of him again in the rematch.

Anderson 20-4. Losses to Arezado, Okami, Chonan, and Takase.

Conor 21-3.

You can't make this stuff up. All you have are excuses to why he was knocked stiff. Conor lost his first two years of MMA, and then after going up in weight two classes. Anderson lost throughout his career against much weaker competition. Conor's never even been knocked down, and while showboating against Floyd, an actual top level boxer no less.

Anderson is half the boxer Conor is. He's also not as good of a fighter even with PEDs. You need to learn to understand this.

 

[hot carl]

Conor's use of distance and timing (in MMA, in boxing vs Floyd he had no chance) grants him far more opportunity to win than a "puncher's chance."

TDD starts at the feet. Conor moves in and out superbly, similar to Machida. Khabib isn't really a blast double guy so I'm not sure he goes 100% on takedowns-- Conor could conceivably avoid some takedowns on distance management alone. The wide stance lets him move back quickly and cover a lot of ground.

There was a YouTube video someone posted about Conor’s take down defense.

Many folks think it’s just a matter of moving away or sideways, but the video showed how Conor will post with one hand on his foes head, neck, or shoulders so the adversary can’t move his torso to commit to the take down, and at the same time, he starts to position his feet and can counter with his other hand because he has spatial recognition based on where his post hand is.

It’s a really quick and almost subtle technique, but the video did a fanatastic job of breaking down the mechanics of it.

Conor’s tdd and control of space is really quite exceptional. I’m not saying it is impregnable, but it is better and more clever than people give him credit for. Well, some people.

But for Conor flopping and panic wrestling, Nate would have knocked him down. He was out on his feet.

 

[Zorrox]

Haha, he big brother'd him

 

[ColombianFist]

Conor is a very good striker, not so good everywhere else.

A very good MMA fighter, but not a great one because he's not well rounded enough.

He's like a poor mans Anderson Silva because Silva was more varied as a striker and actually had a great ground game, better cardio, more heart and willingness to fight.

There will always be a lot divisive, varying opinions on Conor's abilities, because his skillset itself is not very consistent.

Casuals and lovers of striking will be drawn to him, as will insecure people who live vicariously through his braggadocio.

This. Mcg is a very good counter striker but his shots are always to set up his left punch: Andy can ko you with everything and submit you.Plus his overall skills are average or poor since he hasn't faced the type of opponents Andy had Nuthuggers and casuals can say whatever but if you compare andy and Mcg both are very different.

I wouldn't say Mcg's other skills are inconsistent, it's just that if you haven't fought with guys who are your kryptonite, why train those holes.

Like he did the second fight? lmao

 

[Zorrox]

Anderson feasted on low IQ brawlers who would blindly rush in like if they were paid to do so, and just give Anderson the "counters" on a silver platter. Now here is what happened when Anderson finally started fighting DISCIPLINED technical strikers who worked behind an educated jab and who fiented/misdirected their intentions/disrupted the timing of his basic rudimentary "counters" with fients etc

Failed PED tests or not, both Jones and Anderson are the 2 most over rated fighters in history. Only Ronda Rousey was as over rated as they are.


The real true GOAT is Gsp


Annnnd....

The real goat of modern drug tested UFC is Conor. Most of all his big wins were under USADA testing.

Conor is competing in actual talent rich stacked divisions against other actual elite fighters in their primes - and is impressively dominating superior levels of competition

Conor actually dominated an elite prospect who was bigger (at worst the same size) and who was younger in age

Holloway was still a young stud, and Conor himself was a young propsect.

Unlike Anderson, Conor actually stuffed takedowns from legit elite of the elite wrestlers

And unlike Anderson, Conor actually knocked out the elite wrestlers he faced, impressively and within under 2 rounds (Mendes being a far better more well rounded wrestler then anyone Anderson ever faced)

Conor's 1 win over Aldo alone>>>>>any win both Jones and Anderson ever had

Aldo was the p4p#1 and 10 years undefeated when Conor became the one to end Aldo's streak. Not one single Jones or Anderson win even comes close to that.


Never mind Conor beating the champion in the weight class above him. Something Anderson was too afraid to ever even attempt.


Conor and Gsp are the only current GOAT canidates who are 2 weight world champs....NOT Jones...Not Anderson

All time great LW Alvarez in his prime who was 28-4 when Conor took his belt

Jones and Anderson never dominated opponents like this, let alone a current champion above them who was in their prime (Anderson vs Forrest was a sham. Forrest was on xanax that fight plus Forrest was coming off a KO loss)


No one besides Gsp, has beaten more elite prime competition in their primes at the height of their runs, then Conor has.


Here are some more bonus examples of Conor's amazing defense, skill, countering, IQ - and in general, of just how superior Conor is to Anderson on every single possible level

Again, Conor is actually dominating SUPERIOR TALENTS in far more stacked talent rich divisions, far more impressively then Jones/Anderson ever did lower competition

Conor is pure skill, IQ, and finese - who's cleanly dominating other elite opponents in their primes

LHW (and MW during Anderson's "reign") were kiddie pools in comparison to the shark tanks of FW and LW.

GSP AND CONOR are the legit greatest

Be honest, how many times did you climax to the thought of Conor's skin tight green shorts while writing this novel?

 

[PROlogic]

Post above me is wack as shit. Imagine your GOAT being beat by Nate Diaz.

Imagine your "goat" being HUMILATED BY BISPING ON THE FEET.

Imagine your "goat" being a twice failed PED cheat who got embarrassed in his prime by TAKESE...AND OUT STRUCK BY CHONAN before being highlight reel subbed by him

@Redhawks100

 

[hot carl]

Like he did the second fight? lmao

I’m not sure i follow.

Sometimes when two people fight, the outcome, as well as the fight itself differs.

 

[PROlogic]

Why do you continue to post about Anderson when you don’t know shit? Stick to Conor nuthugging

Btw Anderson never got rocked, panic wrestled, and was subsequently submitted inside 2 rounds.

I like how we are ignoring that Conor was the much smaller fighter who avenged the loss just 5 months later (becoming the only fighter in history to outbox Nate Diaz in a pure stand up fight)

Here was Anderson with height, reach, and a 20lb weight advantage over Nick, still getting out boxed - and boxed up by Nick LOL. Yeah, Anderson was totally the "goat striker" @Mysterio I mean, finally an Anderson opponent who knew how to box, but whom was 20lbs smaller, and Anderson just totally showing off his "great defense" by "blocking punches with his face".

Meanwhile here is Conor GIVING UP 20lbs, 4 height, and 2 reach to the BETTER Diaz brother, and still TOOLING the fuck out of Nate IN BOXING

Coincidentally, Conor utilising the same slick right hook to body - to left straight up top on a Diaz brother, that a Diaz brother used on Anderson *cough lol. Yeah Anderson is totally above Conor. Conor also countering all of Nate's jabs, meanwhile Anderson didnt know how to do anything but EAT Weidman's jabs.


Anderson WAS DROPPED ON THE FEET BY SONNEN LMAO @ewww21 Look at your "goat" who btw was also choked out by Takese and out struck on the feet at 28 by a much smaller Chonan. While Conor at 28 was counter fucking a 10 year undefeated Aldo.

Meanwhile Conor actually knocked out a far more elite more well rounded wrestler on the feet in under 2 rounds in Mendes
Mendes>>>>>Sonnen.

A much bigger Nate>>>>>>much smaller Takese/Chonan. Btw Anderson never avenged his losses.

Conor>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Anderson By ever single possible metric

@NotoriousMillions

 

[Felsh]

The nuthugger threads vastly outweighs the non nuthugger threads. Don't kid yourself.

Unless you only consider non nuthugger threads trash and nuthugger threads GOAT?

quit making threads about conor mcgregor

this post is shit. complete shit and your train of thought is that of a 3 year old.

when conor defends his belt ten times then we can talk

 

[Felsh]

and diaz is 2-0 against mcgregor

 

[Felsh]

And Andersons win over Nick was much more decisive than Conor's "draw" with Nate.

 

[ewww21]

Huh? Conor can't grapple? He grapplefucked Max, defended a Mendes Guillotine perfectly and outgrappled Eddie and Nate in the rematch. He's a way better grappler than the Reem we've seen in the UFC who looks lost as soon as he's on his back.

Head ass lmao.

Conor didn't really grapple fuck Max as much as he severely outsized and out classed him.

He never out grappled Nate. Defending Eddie's cage humping TDs isn't really outgrappling in a fight that took place in the center of the octagon for all of 2 rounds.

Okami? Wow stop embarrassing yourself child.

Those aren’t excuses, it’s the fucking truth you ignorant fuck. He was past his prime and gave Weidman the knockout in a silver platter. Anderson wasn’t knocked down until his 33rd MMA fight while Conor was already in danger of being TKO’d on the feet in his prime against Nate Diaz.

Anderson is a better standup fighter than Conor and that’s obvious by his numerous accomplishments that overshadow Conor’s. You should take some pointers from your boy, who praised the shit out of Silva for his abilities in the cage.

Yes he wasn’t “dropped” (his ass didn’t even hit the mat) until his 33rd MMA fight while Conor had to panic wrestle so he wouldn’t get TKO’d on the feet by Nate Diaz in his fucking prime. Please, kid. Don’t bring up Anderson. You will lose this argument. Like I said, stick to nuthugging Conor.
