Do me a favour and ask him for me, who does he want? Frankie or Conor?
If they didn't put a belt on the line it wouldn't be 5 rounds. Do you really want to see a 3 round Aldo vs Edgar fight?
Imho, I don't think he can even if he wants to, it is the job of the shorter fighter to get on the inside, otherwise its a losing battle, he can't exactly stick and move Nate, he'll be in Nate's range for a longer duration than he can actually do anything..add the fact that he gassed the first time and I really can see no way. Condit had reach on Nick, that's why he was able to do that on a very basic level. You can even do that with similar heights at a disadvantage..but notice the difference in length of the two guys.
lmao jesus you still dont get it. Reading comprehension, bro. It's not about Conor. It's about the korean zombie, edgar, aldo, holloway and everyone at 145 that trains their asses off to get a chance to be the best FW in the world. The whole point of the belt is to be called #1 in the world in your weight division. If Conor never comes back to 145, the belt loses its importance. I actually rooted for Nate to whoop Conor's ass and humble him. If anything, Im rooting for edgar or aldo to get a chance to humble him even further.this is what you said: "No one considers DanielCormier to be the best light heavyweight fighter at the moment"
me: can prove you wrong, so don't be this guy...
an asterisk is Conor beating Mendes with a 2 week camp. Didn't somebody say along the lines, "i will defend both belts and I will be a busy champion"??
it does make sense to strip Conor, cause of he wins then what?? Conor vs Diaz 3. He said he would defend the belt in 2 divison now he ain't doing what he said and is putting the FW division in hold. Conor is ducking Edgar, he probably told Dana to make Aldo/Edgar 2 so Conor fights Aldo and avoids Edgar.
come on at least view your boy Conor objectively and not with tunnel vision...
You should really practice reading comprehension, broski. Who on earth was talking about nuthugging Conor? You just pulled that out of your ass, lmao
reading comprehension?? I use the word bro, cause that's probably something you can relate. when you we're proved wrong, all you did is miss direct your fallacy. You completely failed and ignored to what Conor said, "I will be a busy champ and will defend both belts". Care to skip that quote again and defend it?
You mean Sage, the guy who is fighting on the UFC 200 card, and Paige, the girl who is currently on Dancing With the Stars? Yeah, those trains really derailed, huh?
i dont. edgar wins more in the late rounds especially against an aldo who's conditioning is not known to be great and i want him to win
those leg kicks wont work if frankie sees my post earlier in the thread
Ahh dayuuum lure him into a false sense of leg kick security, Franklyn!!those leg kicks wont work if frankie sees my post earlier in the thread
lmao yup. in theory, it sounds like it could almost work but in reality, chances are it wont.
Exactly, 5 rounds is far more intriguing.
Yeah Sage who has lost a ton of so called star power after getting hyped so hard and losing pretty easy to Brian Barberena.. Who ain't a bad fighter at all but has only beat who.. Joe ellenburger. The dude Sage fighting hasn't even got a wiki page ffs.
Lol dude Sage is so young. Nobody is pretending he's a contender right now. Not even his biggest fans are being that unrealistic.
Really? Sage is only popular due to the promotion of the company not through getting into the UFC and building fans via merit.I mean who here is a big sage northcut fan? That's not saying I won't watch him fight. Hes young and I want to see his development. But say he loses at UFC 200.. Will he still get the big push?
I just feel like the UFC doesn't regret pushing them, and they don't regret the push. You said in your original comment that it hurts them in the long run. That was what I was responding to.
About the quote you posted: Of course is Conor selfish for fighting Nate again instead of defending the belt, but he intends to defend his belt ASAP. Throwing a tantrum about waiting a few extra months is childish especially when Dana confirmed that he will definitely fight at FW after UFC 200, win lose or draw in the diaz fight. In the meantime, Conor is still the cash cow and calls some shots, sorry if that hurts your feelings.
