Diaz outboxed McGregor with 10 day notice, no sparring, and food poisoning.

McGregor is a one trick pony, when his left isn't there he has nothing.

Yeah his kicks were ineffective against mendes alright.

Or his ground work against Holloway.

When is this thread gonna get back to normal?

I tend to agree with this analysis.

Usually about 10 days after the fight but because he lost let's give it fourteen days.

This is so wrong its funny,you have seen one example of him losing in 5 years and hes a one trick pony? I wouldnt mind being a one trick pony like him if thats the case, hes ''nothing'' hahahahahaha

We all know hes a striker,never gonna be a wizard off his back or a wrestler but to call him a one trick pony is really far fetched.

I'll post this again for you sweety.

Conor McGregor is 5'9.

There are 23 fighters standing at 5'10 or above in FW: 32%
There are 13 fighters standing at 5'9: 18%
There are 17 fighters standing at 5'8: 24%
There are 14 fighters standing at 5'7: 19%
There are 5 fighters standing at 5'6: 7%

Average height: 5'9

1/2 of the FW roster is either the same height as Conor or taller.
1/3 of the FW roster is taller than Conor.
1/4 of the FW roster is only 1" shorter than him.

They are the facts,half of the division is the same height or bigger.

Post the stats for the ones Connor "the midget slayer" actually fought though, also anyone else think Connor was saved by the bell in the first? He looked tired and nate looked to be reversing his guard into mount.

This guy is still blowing on? :rolleyes:

Any more conspiracy theories for us mulder?

How can you expect to be taken seriously when you are claiming that the UFC paid RDA to back out of the fight with Conor and used a photoshopped picture of his foot.

Comedy gold!!!

Luke Thomas breakdown, very fair and balanced.

But its a division of midgets? Will I post the stats of Jon Jones wins? he should be at heavyweight hes beating midgets like cormier and sonnen vitor machida rasha,height advantage over all of them so his wins are meaningless fraud if he doesnt go heavyweight isnt he.

Why do you keep posting about all the fighters he hasn't fought?

Go fetch me the stats for the fights he has fought..sweety.

There's no pint arguing with them, their arguments are one dimensional and only apply to Conor. Pointing out a fact like that will not even register with them.

In what universe are poirier, Holloway and Aldo midgets?

This is brilliant!

You're right,they have no idea who any of the fighters are,they know of Conor Aldo RDA and Nate at most.

DrumSteve

Diaz is taller and bigger than McGregor.

Does it invalidate his victory that he beat a "midget"?

Your just in a very convoluted way side stepping the fact that conner has enjoyed significant reach, hight and weight advantages in his FW bouts, first time he is at a disadvantage in this regard he was schooled by a journey man who spent the first day of his 10 day training camp sitting on the sh1tter in Mexico. You are pulling all the stats out that are not relevant, conner career has been fighting little guys many of whom had no proper training camp!!!

Let's see if Gamebred comes back with meaningful stats this time of the height and reach differences of the fighters McGregor has actually fought.

Meaningful stats? Christ. Just a few hours ago you were claiming that Aldo was stripped of his belt for not fighting Conor and the UFC are faking pictures of RDA's foot and paying him backhanders not to fight!!!

How about some meaningful stats to back up the absolute blather and outright lies you are spouting in here?

You seriously do not have a clue judging by your posts mate. Its laughable

Diaz lost the first round comfortably and was losing the first half of the 2nd round also. Then Conor got tired, slowed down and Nate unsurprisingly managed to find it easier to hit a target that was not moving much any more. Not sure I'd class that as outboxing someone.

If Conor didn't gas so badly there's nothing to suggest he wouldn't have kept winning the stand up.

Its getting amusing now,I think the pair of them are the same person hilarious posts,steam coming off their keyboards Conor has got the poor lads seething,im guessing they lost a fortune on Aldo and now its virtual payback.

I believe in boxing ali called it the rope a dope.

I know of someone called the sponge that absorbs a beating for a bit, letting the person tire themselves out. There is more to it than just throwing more

Gamebred threw up stats of all fighters in FW so will be easier to get the stats of the ones mcgregor has fought. Still waiting Gamebred...

Connor was saved by the bell in the first, definitely looked like nate was going to get a leg or arm etc. You seen how tired he came out in the second.

I really don't think Nate expected Conor to tire as quickly as he did. And I doubt he just accepted being punched in the face to tire him out.
