Who's the best striker at 155

[Casanova]

The hyperbole of saying Conor has the best striking at 155 and noone comes close is ridiculous.

Name someone else? No one comes close. Conor has got to where he is because of his striking/boxing

 

[Huligani]

Conor McGregor, all things considered.

 

[hoevan]

I would say Barboza, but he's at 45 now.

 

[dr. john lee]

How is it Fiziev?

Never said it was, though I don't know the context of that loss there. I'm talking McG

At 145, he's looked much better at 155.

I get that weight cut makes a difference, but let's be real: 1) he didn't hold his own, he got owned and 2) McGregor looks like an exhumed corpse himself at 145.

 

[TankAbbott4Eva]

Conors striking and boxing is far better than Dustins. Conor has the best striking at 155 and no one comes close.

I agree, because it's Conor i think he gets underrated sometimes.

 

[pick999]

Khabib easy

 

[Summoning]

Iaquinta

 

[Ares Black]

I'm curious on peoples thoughts here, I genuninely believe the best striker is either Fiziev or Brad Riddell personaly, they both very accomplished strikers, personally both are levels above their competition, who else gives them a run in terms of pure striking?

Dustins boxing is nice, Do Bronx muay thai is coming together, Justins bull in a china shop approach, who else am I missing? any other strikers to watch out for in 155?

Fiziev vs Riddell to find out

 

[GangGangGang]

Conor
Fiziev
Poirier
Gaethje

 

[Lawrence]

Conor 2.0 by far. His nuclear left is one of those punches fighters get shocked by, its like they cant even believe how hard he just hit them.

Conor 2.0 has never fought at 155

Fucking stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.

Also, having a very good left does not make you the best striker.

Conor 2.0 Goat shoulder striker.... nothing more

 

[RicardinhoPT]

Conor for sure. His groundgame just isn't good enough

 

[Kono dio da!]

Fiziev. NOT conor...Fiziev,
barboza before he left,
then riddell probably, i mean he's got that tiger muay thai/ ckb dna in him, i mean he's fiziev's training partner,
then Conor maybe, unless there's some prospect i don't know about.
Then everybody else

 

[TrueTemper]

Technical Conor
Power maybe Fizeiv

Fiziev's technique is light years better than Conor's

 

[fortheo]

You seeing that with your Sharingan? lol Where's @Snake Master when you need him lol.

CKB is overrated in my humble opinion, the only person holding it down for them nowadays is Adesanya.

Volkanovski technically isn't a part of CKB either as he has his own head coaches and set of coaches.

Kai Kara France is nowhere NEAR being a contender at Flyweight despite being given multiple opportunities to become one dating all the way back to his time on TUF for DJ.

Riddell is another prospect that although has talent, doesn't compare to Conor when it comes to his Striking, especially his counter striking. Just because Adesanya is killing it doesn't mean they all can. Look at Hooker too, he's one more loss away from a 50-50 record.

Riddell is a really good striker. You just need to watch his kickboxing fights to see that, and he's adapted his game over to MMA nicely. It's too soon to compare him to Conor, though.

 

[Kertol]

Conor or Gaethje

 

[fortheo]

Fiziev vs Riddell to find out

I really want to see one of them fight Arman tsarukyan.

 

[BlackPanther]

Cody Pfister comes to mind.

 

[chinarice]

You've seen Riddell fight? he'd destroy Connor in a pure stand up fight.

But probably lose where it matters, in a MMA fight.

 

[ArtemV]

Gaethje with his new approach. He would knock Oliveira out.

 

[CrimsonFan]

I haven't been watching closely to know the answer.

Maybe Porier?
