Why did McGregor gas in the 2nd round?

[real2124]

Just rewatched his fight vs Nate.

Why did Conor gas so early? we've seen him in other fights that lasted longer where he didn't gas...

I understand he was throwing a lot of bombs with his left and a lot of flashy kicks... but isn't that his style?

Props to Nate for the win. Looking forward to the rematch.

Got popped in da face brah

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

I love da boy but he got hurt, and realised 5 rounds he could not do an Nate could take his best for five.

So he crumpled mentally brah

throwing bombs for 7 minutes will make you pretty tired...... and no, throwing bombs every time you throw isnt Conor's usual style

 

[LouisBolanos]

He was inefficient with his energy because he was eating 4 breakfasts + 1 dessert.

Chest infection

So he overcommitted going for an early KO...

Perhaps his usual style works better?

Looking forward to the rematch.

What rematch...?

 

[FrontNakedChoke]

In b4 Conor sucks, was always shit, is ducking everyone.

 

[Frode Falch]

Diaz pressure.

A bully being bullied.

 

[real2124]

What rematch...?

Got me

 

[real2124]

I think his gameplan was off...

It was all or nothing with the lead left...

 

[Drake]

Got me

 

[HIMBOB]

He was ineffective with his energy.

And he kept getting punched in the head.

 

[Besty_Tiocfaidh_Ar_La]

He was trying to ko Nate with almost every punch he attempted in that first round. He approached that fight with a terrible game plan imo. Not saying he would win the rematch but I'm pretty sure he will last a lot longer.

All Fooking Day=1 and a half round.

 

[Chain Saw]

Whiffing bombs.

He used up all the energy he was supposed to conserve over 5 rounds because he was trying to overwhelm Nate and KO him early.

When he couldn't do it, he was fucked and he knew it.

Blew his load.

That is all.
