Not exact matches
from where i'm sitting,
conor's strengths: - long and athletic - great power in his hands and feet - throws with speed & accuracy - uses all 8 points
of contact (and uses them all in multiple ways)- uses good footwork to circle away from power shots and to control pace / location
of fight - has shown good to great TD defense (until tired)- has good chin (tested several times and the proof appears to be in the pudding, as they say)- displays good head movement which allows him to absorb fewer strikes while within range - excellent counter puncher (able to get in and
out fast using his karate style stance)- has shown better conditioning at lw than fw or ww - has incredible
fight iq (lone exception in the ufc was against nate in first
fight when he was clearly fatigued)

fight game for, yet again, mortgaging its future for the most money possible today.
