Dustin outstruck max, eddie, justin, hooker pretty easily

Everybody know Dustin is mile away of Conor in stand up, Conor embarrased him at the first fight and will do it again

He is too fast, technical, accurate and powerful

Nobody can stop Conor now Khabib is gone

Maybe Oliveira can, but i don't think he is that good to avoid punch
 
Conor would Cub Swanson Oliveira inside a round, he basically has a "submitter's chance".

It's almost impossible to imagine any of the current 155 beating Conor right now other than Khabib. Everyone else is mostly a striker or won't have the ability to get Conor on the ground (Oliveira) or do much once there (Chandler).

Any MMA striker trying to to deal with Conor on the feet is a squash match. And before you bring up Diaz 2, it was only competitive because Conor gassed from using Nate's head as a punching bag for two rounds.
 
Dustin was seconds away from getting stopped in the second round against Hooker. Justin fight was back and forth.

I can picture Gaethje either knocking him out or turning his legs into broken twigs. I also think Hooker is likely a better striker, and I see him pulling an upset. RDA could take him down and make him his wife. I think out of all of the LW division, Kevin Lee poses the worst stylistic matchup for Conor, if he's ever able to get his mind right.

Conor is certainly a great fighter, but his aura is largely a product of his larger-than-life persona and a career that's been very carefully managed by the UFC. I think any fighter that possesses strong cardio, good striking defense, and decent offensive wrestling/grappling has a very strong chance at beating him.
 
Damnit man lol this is why you double check everything before you hit send rofl. Nice one. :oops:

It will be McGregor era 2.0.

We will see. That fight was at 145 and it is quite possible the weight cut hurt Poitiers ability to take a shot, also that shot landed in a specific manner, it will be hard for Conor to replicate.

But the Conor and Michael Johnson KOs may be indicative of Poirier being susceptible to southpaws, so..

You can edit the title.

And I'd agree about 2016 Conor. But who knows where he's at these days. Cowboy fight told us nothing.
