Thats just ignorant.If Khan lost to Jo Jo Dan, then you'd have a point
Diaz = Jo Jo Dan level opponent
Also Khan would absolutely annihilate Conor.. PS Khan doesnt quit like a girl
Too Big, too strong, too fast, too accurate, and he hits harder than the bum Diaz
Any boxer at 147 - 140 in the top 50 destroys Conor
Conor was shaken to his core with a simple touch from Diaz, there was nothing behind Diaz punches..he's packing a lot of glass up there, a real boxer would expose it very fast
Diaz was rocking Conor with slaps

PEDs only work up to a certain pointComment

Good summary. He seemed too fast for Diaz initially and was timing him well. But I guess the question is what happens if your opponent doesn't buckle under your best shots. Conor didn't seem to have any back-up plan, he didn't show an ability to move well on the back foot nor did his kicks come into the equation. He ended up in a slugging match with a bigger man which was a tactical disaster.
In terms of the weight leap, I think people massively underestimate the effect. GSP gives a good breakdown on the impact it has on efficiency of movement here. He talks about how reaction times and reset times change when you put on weigh and it takes time to adjust to it. Starts at 2.21.
Roach also says here before the fight that GSP said McGregor moving up so quickly is a bad idea.
great post !
Dr Rumack, before the fight, I noticed that Diaz does not get knocked out or submitted. You have to beat him by decision.
You have to go the distance with that motherfcuker.
And we are talking about 170lb'ers here, not lightweight's.
That scenario reeks of a " take him late and drown him " gameplan.Comment

This is a **** post, on so many levels.
1) comparing Diaz to Jo Jo Dan is just ignorant, I hope you know more about boxing than you do about MMA
2) " there was nothing behind Diaz punches "..... if you have no idea what actually happened, perhaps listen to the after-match comments from BOTH fighters.....
Diaz: I had no camp, so the plan was to start slow and conserve energy so that I will be effective in the 4th/5th round.
McGregor: Diaz was more efficient with his energy than I was.
Even amateurs know not to load up on everything, Frankie.
3) Diaz did a full camp with Andre fkn Ward awhile back, so yea..... I don't think you know too much about this sportComment

McGregor was trying to escape it. It's not like he quit as soon as he went to the ground. He was trying to find a way out but he just couldn't get out of Diaz's lock. Even when Nate starting ground-pounding, Conor turned over to escape it but he ended getting choked and that was it.Comment

Why does it "stop" the Mayweather BS!
He got stopped, big deal the greatests fighters in history have lost!
Didn't he fight two division above the scheduled bout...145---170....!
His power didn't translate when he was tagging his opponent because of the weight.
Why didn't Mayweather move up to challenge the Middleweight Champ? Thats only 13 pounds difference. If lil' Floyd was the new TBE like the REAL TBE (Robinson) is he would have done it and done it often. Like for 15 years! HA!!
Fans believe the "hype" for a fight as if its life & death, the hype is for the fans so they take it to heart. Silly fans.....

It stops it because Floyd never lost, Ray. Despite moving up in weight from 130 all the way to 154.
You can't be a chump that lost to a guy who took the bout on 10 days notice and STILL talk trash to Mayweather. No one will take that seriously anymore.Comment
