i wish conor still fought like this, he barely kicked against poirier he's only throws hands now looking to land the big left hand i really hope he goes back to his roots
Exactly. As soon as he started the fight with that stance I was worried. Maybe its only sustainable stamina-wise for him to move like that at FW or something idk but I miss this dynamic and fluid version of conor.
@@raiderrichard7291 He's been less dynamic and more boxing focused/head hunting in essentially all of his recent fights starting with the mendes one. Granted hes won fights, some in spectacular fashion, with a more minimalist style and some fights call for different approaches but I think both poirier and diaz were more easily able to find success because he's more predictable now. In fact, he showed that with his adjustment in the diaz rematch. Just compare conors performance vs max, or vs siver, and how unorthodox he was to his more recent fights.
@@231camelo but the Mendes fight if you remember clearly he used A LOT of body kicks to ruin chad. Not just boxing. I think mcgregor shouldn’t have left 145 ever, what do you think? Usman, Khabib , even Poirier all cut about 30 pounds so idk why everyone judged conor so much for looking anorexic at weigh ins. Lots of people look iffy at weigh in, once rehydrated in the ring he looked fine. I think he could have stayed undefeated at 145
@@ctc1996 Yeah, I'm not saying he just boxed bc he used teeps a lot and mendes posed a wrestling challenge as well but I think that's where the signs of him becoming a bit more flat-footed and more boxing-focused started. With him at 145, I might agree with your points. Although it's great that he got his goal of two division champ and I'm glad he did that, I think a run at 145 may be best for him. Hindsight is 20/20 I guess but, like you said, lots of fighters cut 30 lbs or so to get down to their weight division. To me his striking looked kind of flat and off in both the khabib and poirier fight compared to how he looked vs eddie and all his 145 fights. Maybe it is his inactivity thats the issue though.
Sorry but the speed in which Conor got back up from the ground at 5:16 is just incredible. Remember he was big into that movement training, you can see here how flexible and fluid he is. Now he is still awesome but maybe he is becoming a little more stiff as he ages. Revisiting this movement training could really be worth it.
I don’t think he’s stiff but ever since the Diaz fights he doesn’t move like this because it uses so much energy and he was much lighter here than he is now.
Fuck sake finally someone gets it, he’s obviously not the best at it but he’s proven loads of times that he has good ground game I don’t really get why people think that his wrestling is bad
This was the first time I saw McGregor fight. Very few people can talk trash and back it up in the ring, and I found out that Connor is one of those people.
@@tariqrobertson54 what is your logic mate? why do you think conor is the richest ufc fighter ever? cause people like to watch him. why do they like to watch him? cause he doesnt wrestle for 5 rounds straight. why is khabib not nearly watches as much as conor? cause khabib wrestles on the ground for 5 rounds ;) thanks for letting me prove your stupidity mate ;)
I've said it before and i'll say it again Mcgregor should have never left the featherweight division. At 145 he would have been the goats of goats, too fucking fast and accurate.
Becoming light weight champion and getting the double status was probably a more historic achievement but after he got it maybe he should’ve defended at 145 a few times
@@ganendrasabri3613 khabib is like a pro version of ben askren never fight against a decent fighter and retain undefeated i mean realy barboza and pourier and conor how didn t fight in like one or two years isn t enough. Plus conor might be injured he fight against mendez with an injured leg it isn t impossible for him to fight against khabib with an injured leg
@@ganendrasabri3613 Plus i will quote evander holyfield "None want to be the undefeated undisputed fighter ever one want to be the undefeated champion."
I’m big sad to say this. I remember watching this live pulling for Dennis to shut up the ufc hype train. After this fight I respected him majorly, watched the Chad mendez fight and was convinced. Still a fan of Conor and would never disrespect a man with his skills, but, it hurts to think about what could’ve been it Conor never bounced out to box or bounced out into the party life. I mean this with all respect. Salute. Conor will fight in 2024.
Khabib is scared to fight Conor again because he knows Conors new strategy would be exactly what Justin geachy did to khabib in there last fight. Justin basically ruined khabibs career with those leg kicks and the crazy part is, Conor has faster and more powerful kicks then Justin.... gaechy was a couple kicks away from crippling that bitch khabib..... he knows Conor will be trying to finish the job. Mark my words: khabib only fights again if his opponent is a wrestler..... and even if khabibs “wins” the fight if they ever rematch, he knows there’s a very high chance he may never walk again
Never and i mean never not shake a mans hand if he offers it idc how mad you are your welcoming a good humbling ass kicking hence thats exactly what took place
Denise was completely past his prime and at the end of his career when he fought conor.Denis would fight 2 more times after his fight against conor,then officially retire from the sport. All of conors fights were hand picked by tye UFC to give him the safest path to a title shot.Then conor would win in a match against jose which will be the biggest fluke in mma history. The generation of this fan base are the dumbest
Fraudulent?? Connor beat the pound for pound best in the world (Aldo), Chad Mendez was a killer, he beat a lot of top level genuine fighters, he isn’t a fraud. If McGregor WAS a fraud what does that make siver? He still lost 😂 siver got battered mostly but yes he did exploit some of Connors weaknesses
“Aldo is enjoying this....smiling...resting heartbeat blah blah” literally just read an article that said the complete opposite. Fighters who smile like Aldo did there are scarred and end up being the submissive one in the fight and they not only lose more but get KO’d more. Interestingly, Poirer mendes aldo Alvarez all smiled multiple times during intense moments. They were all put on their back foot and ultimately stopped. Brimage didn’t smile and came at him full force swinging, as did Brandao never on the back foot. Holloway, Khabib and Nate also never smiled with him, non of which were stopped by Conor, and two of which beat Conor
I don’t get why people say Dustin started winning once he didn’t get dropped by conors left... conor lands plenty of left hands on siver without dropping him. Difference is Conor mixed a lot of kicks with setting up punches. In my eyes he’s never had huge knock out power but keeps tagging with clean shots, almost volume striking like.
Thing is back at 145 mcgregor was more of a volume fighter he stopped being one after he moved up in weight and lost to Diaz. Look at how he fought Diaz the 1st time then the second. The 1st he basically was the 145 mcgregor just bigger and slower plus more muscle means you'll gas quicker. So he scrapped that style. The second he was timing his shots no flashy kicks that's the mcgregor of today. He was able to drop Diaz 3 times with the patient, controlled approach and Alvarez 5 times. That's why he is getting hate for not being able to drop poirier even though he landed so cleanly. McGregor is losing some of that power but his left hand is still very very lethal.
One of the best striking displays in UFC history. Conor just dominates him.
