Why Was Conor So Scared To Go To The Ground vs Nate?

[DaleBoca]

He was begging him to stand up.

So, Conor isn't a well-rounded fighter....?

 

[WhatNOW]

The better question is where was nate's boxing?

Why would he go to the ground with Nate when he was easily winning the standup? Can you think for a second?

 

[Jin Akutsu]

Because he knew he outclassed Nate on the feet.

 

[Leinster Rugby]

Remember how their first fight ended

Why was Nate on the ground?

Why is there so little talk about Nate laying on his back calling Conor into his guard?

you can also be a good fighter without ground game. but you cant be the GOAT like all MC gregor fans call him

"I'm the greatest of all-time"... Won't the greatest of all-time be great everywhere?

I don't know....

 

[Thunderchild]

Because he wanted the fight to take place where he feels he has the greatest comparative advantage. I don't like McGregor, but don't fault him for his game plan. He did what he had to win, even if it meant point fighting and "resetting" (running).

Because fighters who get dropped, their opponent tries to finish them, not beg him to get up.

MOD EDIT: This was not done by BWR. It was done by @maddwarf. We had a small "Shoop duel" where I just added Scooting Nate. This is the original. - BWR

Overeem let Werdum stand up. Does that mean Overeem isn't a well rounded fighter? No you idiot.

Reem never claimed he was the greatest of all-time.
