Who's the best striker at 155

Conor without the relentless threat of a take down or clinch from a dagastani wrestling machine out strikes everybody at 155 and 145, nobody else is in his league.
Conors striking and boxing is far better than Dustins. Conor has the best striking at 155 and no one comes close.
Um.. Nate Diaz?
 
At 145, he's looked much better at 155.

Poirer will panic wrestle and go for a guillotine this time, Conor takes his head off standing i nthe first round (again).
 
I know you guys don't like Conor because of the way he sells his fights talks shit and his behavior outside the cage, but lets get real in his entire career since entering the UFC hes shown the following weakness's, gas tank whilst fighting at heavier weights, and takedown defence against elite wrestlers.

Its hard to judge his sub defence when hes gassed.

so other than Nate gassing him out and subbing him, Khabib taking him down and keeping him there until he gassed out and subbing him, hes taken everyone else's head off.
 
How is it Poirier? The guy got obliterated by McGregor, all standing.
How is it Fiziev?

Ok @Murder_KickHC alt's account. We all saw the Diaz fights.

So did we, Nate getting butchered and dropped over and over liek 5x in 2 fights doing his best homer simpson impression until he gassed Conor out, how is blocking punches with your face until McGregor is tired = Nate has better striking?
 
there's a lot of up and coming strikers at lw, and we need to see them fight ranked guys to make a better assessment.
As some have already mentioned, ridell and fiziev's kickboxing looks very crisp, aside from some defensive deficiencies. guys like haqparast and azaitar have got good power and handspeed. conor and dustin are at the top atm, we need to see how conor looks on january. gaethje is a tough, powerful dude too but i don't think that highly of him technically speaking (he def makes it work tho, he can take a punch and land a ko shot against basically anyone, and those leg kicks are $). Really exciting matchups ahead.
If i had to chose the best striker right now, i'd have to go with conor or dustin. My personal favorites: dustin and ridell.
