Sure, but he didn't cripple those guys, maybe frankie a little, but that guy stands in front of people, he's small, and he's always coming forward using his iron chin so it's no surprised he took some decent leg kicks.

Every opponent says they're gonna chop the leg down. It's so hard when you're at a significant distance advantage.

Idk why people figure aldo is going to be leg kicking him whenever he wants? Have you seen their faces offs? How much smaller he is.

aldo's 2 inches shorter than mcgregor rofl what are you trying to get at

Jesus, that picture is fucking disgusting. Can't believe that actually happend.

e/ Hadn't seen that second picture. Starting to dislike The Chris. I understand he has a gimmick of a "Brazillan Slayer" w/e he's Mr. all America. But Connor is not part of his team. As far as I know they don't train together, he's just trying to get in that spotlight.

Incineration. ..

:rofl:

Aldo does have some vicious leg kicks. I think people forget about his knees and flying knee's too. Super stoked for these fights. Glad they are only a week away so all this hype dies down (regardless of who wins).

Distance distance distance.

You can't do any of that when you aren't in range, your strike comes up short and then you get drilled with a counter..

It's more than 2 inches.

Probably 4-6 inches in reach.

And Conor's style is naturally longer versus the closed in compact Muay thai style that Aldo uses.

I think that pic is from like 6 months ago. When they were supposed to fight the first time and all the sponsored fighters had to fly to New York for that reebok announcement.
