I tend to agree with conor getting beat up and Mendes did land quite a few right hands. Some big.

He got beat up on the ground, he was being grinded. He just had a little more in the tank after that scramble. He looked far from fresh when he got up and finished Mendes. Aldo will establish his right hand early on in this fight. I think Conor will get off more earlier on, but you might see Aldo put him away with hooks in round 2. If Conor slips or gets knocked down and Aldo jumps on him that could be it. On the other hand , he could just be a punching bag for Conor landing at will with the classic muay thai stance and approach.

Also, Conor has never surgecically repaired that knee. Aldo can tear that shit apart. God I HOPE no injuries on this card for every fighter but it's a possibility.


the rights will be there all night for aldo as well as the lefts from conor

i think conors pressure he puts on when he smells blood is a lot better than aldo's example being his last fight with mendes.. he rocked mendes a couple of times but never capitalized and got rocked himself a time or 2
whereas when mendes started going backwards conor put an absolute onslaught of mixing different shots up on him

aldo has those flurries, but i don't think he'll be able to do them as easily unless it happens really early on since he'll probably be gassing by end of round 2

watched this video being unbiased as possible, i agree, but disagree with a few points he made

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGFLoYGTrNE

he talked about conor getting "beat up" by mendes which is far from the truth

conor had a lot more strikes landed and did a lot more damage

so that i disagree with..

also he never mentioned that conor checks leg kicks (given aldo's are on a different level i understand) but still being a south paw that's a further distance to travel so i don't believe they'll be as "readily available"

i do agree that aldo's speed / athleticism is beyond crazy and he will have some counter punches of his own.. but he left out the reach factor
he never once mentioned how much aldo got LIT UP by mendes whereas conor avoided mended completely with his reach (only shots mendes really landed were in the clinch or on the ground)

either way it's a pretty nice video, i'm sure i'll disagree with a few things if he posts up a conor one even


people really need to rewatch the mndes mcgregor fight without bias. Mendes barely landed any shots in the clinch, also landed as many punches as mcgregor standing. On the feet up until the ko mendes was landing just as many hard shots as mcgregor. http://www.fightmetric.com/fight-details/70290140b6a8e038

The main difference in the sig strikes is the kicks... nothing else. I feel mendes was getting the better of mcgregor until the ko, and would love to see that fight again with proper preparation on both sides. Edgar mcgregor doesn't interest me as much as a rematch with mendes does. I get more excitement from a fight that could end at any second, vs edgars style. yes he is very technical but it's like watching a gsp fight. It is his opponent that makes the fight exciting or not, we always know what he is bringing to the table.

Aldo vs mendes 2 was a war back and forth. I think it will be similar vs mcgregor, neither fighter is getting knocked out, aldo will win a decision. If mcgregor wins a decision it will be controversial in my eyes, his only way to win is by ko and I just don't see that happening. The leg kicks for aldo will be there just as always, the way he throws his kicks, they are usually set up by punches. He doesn't throw many leg kicks until he has his opponent expecting something else, and mcgregor pushes forward pretty much always now which opens them up even more.

I have no problem with people like star who can acknowledge aldo's skill, it's mcgregor fans like maji and mvp who seem to think aldo has no chance in this world which is absurd. both fighters have a chance to win this fight.

Yeah end of round 2 is when aldo starts to slow down. Conor can just distance and abuse the body until then. I don't think he'll throw much spinning shit... Aldo doesn't seem to circle as often as Mendes. He usually just slips his head or steps back. Conor is a killer but Aldo is too.. When he had Mendes off balance he did get hit in the nuts and was probably tired lol.

okay maybe not the clinch my bad on that one, but look at the strikes... 16 of mendes strikes were on the ground
that's over HALF of mendes sig strikes in which he was out numbered by conor anyways.. so that being said, mendes did not by any means beat conor standing at any given point of the fight
he got humiliated on the feet

Panic wrestler LOLOLOLOLOLOL that's such a good term.

Anyways, only gotta deal with the Mcgregor deniers for 1 more week.

I can't believe the UFC is going to be allowed to broadcast an execution.
