To be completely honest, Conor is lightning out of the gate. He’s got the first 8-minutes to be himself. That is dangerous, even for Khabib.
On the flip side, Khabib is generally a slower starter. He’s in it for the long haul, no need to blow his wad in the first.
So imo the first 1 1/2 rounds will be exciting as hell, not like that’s a very bold prediction.
So does this "Conor has 8 minutes" thing come from his first fight with Nate diaz? A fight he fought at 170 pounds without proper training last minute?
He started very slow and composed vs Alvarez, picking his shots. Lasted 25 minutes vs Diaz and won a decision, and lasted 30 minutes vs Mayweather.
