Until he moves up and actually fights people his own size, he'll never be the 'goat'. He's a bigger man than the champion that's a division above him ffs. If that doesn't tell you there's something wrong well then I'm sorry, you're delusional

Incredible views you have my friend beating frankie would mean nothing to you jesus christ this is comedy.

He's max 3 inches taller than Edgar. An inch taller than Aldo. Diaz, who fights at LW is about 3/4 inches taller than McGregor too (no matter what the UFC stats say as they are notoriously unreliable Conor was 5'11" now he's 5'9"). So what do you say to Conor? Fight 'midgets' in FW or be the 'midget' in LW? He beat Holloway who is taller than him. Poirer is the same size if I'm not mistaken. Chad and Frankie are small FWs, but that's their call to fight there. Both could probably make BW.

RedemptionZ wrote: » It's a lot bigger these days though. He is probably a natural FW but he could go down the McGregor route and cut to make 135 and rehydrate. He's not a big man. And he got submitted by a guy who was annihilated by Dos Anjos. You make it very hard to be a Conor McGregor fan! True, Apologies.

Martypants1 wrote: » The posts about Conor being classy and being gracious in defeat are such ****e. What's he gonna do? Come out and say he should have won the fight? The important things he said were before the fight where he bad mouthed Nate, making him out to be a retard. Well sorry Conor but the "retard" made you quit. I don't think Conor was able to count to 10 after Nates arms were locked around McGregors neck.
floorpie wrote: » So why did he gas? You don't think he's less fit than someone like Nate, surely. I know he was intending to go up in weight, but he did it way too fast. It's not like you put on weight and bam, you're the same level fitness you were before but heavier. Your cardiovascular system and skeleton and muscles need time to get used to the weight. He did it way too fast imo. I don't know whether that's a poor coaching choice or just Conor taking risks, but he didn't gas from a higher striking volume than usual, I know that much.
