Conor at 145:
-still beats Jose 10/10 times within 1-2 rounds (get mad all day, bitch)
-has considerable trouble with Edgar but beats him inside of 3, easier than everyone is claiming (he is way too powerful and big for Edgar to 'tool' him the way many are assuming is a given.. yes Edgar has fought bigger and stronger guys but Conor will make him eat hard hard shots as the clock winds down and Edgar will give in)
-gets possibly decisioned by Max Holloway in a future rematch (maybe not but I could see it)
Conor at 155:
-I think he has a decent shot at beating RDA, problem is RDA wont be champ much longer
-There is little to no chance Conor beats Khabib and there is literally no chance he beats Tony Furgeson, its just not happening
Conor at 170
-There is almost no chance Conor beats Nate Diaz at 170 (or 155 for that matter. Not only has McGregor already shown he cant beat Nate on less than 2 weeks notice, the fact is while Nate is beatable hes durable as all fuck and Conor's victories almost all entirely come in the form of KO/TKO. Nate has a granite chin and he has never been knocked out. Has absolutely nothing to do with 'energy conservation' and everything to do with Nate being a better boxer that can take far more damage than Conor or probably most can dish out on the feet. No cardio regimine or time spent doing bjj drills is gonna change that. Am I going to watch UFC 200? yeah but I'm annoyed as fuck these two are fighting again. I'm a fan of both and we all know what the outcome will be.
