Jason_H. Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 ...and from what I read before I watched the fight and from what other people were saying, I got the impression Conor was winning the fight. BULL****! Diaz was clearly out-boxing Conor. I think the cut above Nate's eyes just played an illusion to making a lot of people think he was losing but, in all actuality, Nate was outscoring Conor with a lot of jabs and making Conor miss a lot. Nate was hardly touched. I counted about 7 shots that landed for Conor whereas Diaz landed about 120. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyte Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 He was clearly dominating the fight but he was putting everything into those shots and is used to midgets crumbling. Nate took it and came forward. He'll most likely smash all the featherweights who aren't named Frankie Edgar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason_H. Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 LOL, he took a grazing shot that cut him up so of course he's going to look like a mess with a cut. Conor ate a lot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RazorRam0n Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 nate has scar tissue there, and connor hit him on the exact spot 3 times.....but not much elsewhere, connor admitted himself post fight he mostly collected gloves and arms and threw too much in those uppercuts and wheel kicks. the fight was always going to over for connor after the first, nate needed time to get ring ready with no sparring and connor went flat out with nothing left.

Do you even know what a grazing shot means? It means the punch was not flush and barely hit the target...and that's one of the most common ways fighters get cut.

zaksame Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 OP you watched the fight with one eye closed lol. Conor missed because he was throwing wild haymakers,telegraphed strikes and he was not even within range to connect if he wanted to.He was simply swinging for the fence on every strike and why he gassed out,he figured 1-2 he would KO Nate.I am sure Conor also felt the pressure of a 1st round prediction that is why he went all out for a KO instead of fighting smart. I am not sure what goes in these guys heads,i think they just get tired so they stand too far out of the pocket.Johnson did the same thing as Conor,you coudl see he was better but he was never in range to pull the trigger,so swinging at air aka Bisping style. NORMALLY i would say it was because of a defensive posture,sort of swinging but not fully committing for fear of a counter but in Conor's case he was fully committing just not in range. Yeah Conor is fast,but when you wind up your punches and Nate is just basically slapping his arms out not really committing your not going to hit him too often.You could clearly see that Conor had 5x the power Nate did,he could have taken something fof those strikes and made sure to land more. Conor's whole speech was precision and speed beat power and yet he was the one swinging with power and no precision lol.Bottom line is just like theJohnson fight,Nate was a sort fo non factor it was Conor's and Johnson's to lose and they lost it.It does make the fight game exciting,you never know what mindset a fighter has,upsets can happen. Conor's biggest and maybe only problem is his ego,he doesn't like to show a sign of weakness,so he holds his hands down low when he fights,he never likes to post a defensive stance,he tries to be the Alpha male in the ring but it can cost you as it did Rhonda.Holly's fight was totally different,she lost that by getting lazy,Miesha was doing nothing the entire fight so Holly would get lazy and Miesha would surprise her.Holly also literally ripped Miesha's grip off her several times in that second round,so she felt she could do the same in the fifth but not happening.

OzPride Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 ^ tldr But nate threw the ones that counted from a few mins into the 2nd and that's where the fight was one. It was pretty obvious the first round was a warm up for Nate, the second he moved into 2nd gear and barely dropped the clutch for 3rd when Cagegrabber McTapper dived at his feet in desperation to be finished and that's all he needed.

NangaParbatWinter16 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 You can stick three quarters into that cut above Nate's eye. Conor was hardly bleeding. You sound ridiculous. That is simply down to scar tissue on his face same as Nick Diaz, If you dont make a Diaz bleed during a fight then you should really retire they are that prone to cutting. Nates damage was superficial due to scar tissue but Nate Damaged Conor to the point he was doing the chicken dance across the cage and at no point in time was Nate ever fazed he kept in Conors face knowing he would soon find his timing and look what happened when he did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UFCCagerattler Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 Conor is not a complete MM artist.He is a boxer of sorts. Even his fanboys should understand that. His ground game is cabbage and there is no way for him to beat people like Aldo and Frankie except by KOing them quick. If he can do that he;s fine, if he can;t he is going to get exposed.

This ^ Also, dont get me wrong, Conor was indeed selling himself so well (looking good at 145 of course) that even some people who dont like him thought he was going to do well against bigger guys (myself included).
