Facts: Conor dropped a fighter Andre Ward couldn't even hurt - 3 times

[Robbie Barrett]

so that made my point even stronger!! ward a guy who is the p4p #1 cant even drop or hurt diaz and dont give me the gloves size crap! im not asking ward to drop nate with 1 punch but the best p4p #1 cant even drop or hurt nate. you would think ward would clown on diaz since he's the p4p #1.

So McGregor is better than the P4P #1 boxer. OK then.

Explain that then?
Andre Ward spoke so highly of Nate's boxing skills. "Could make it as a boxer" - "Can't hurt him" - "granite chin"

Andre, like every other opponent of Nate Diaz, tried and failed to put him on his ass. It's no coincidence Andre is one of the few saying "anything can happen in this fight" and not ruling out Conor.

I guess when you see a UFC fighter outbox and brutalize the face of an opponent that you couldn't even bruise it will leave you with no choice but to re-evaluate his chances in the ring.

You spar with at least 16oz gloves.

I've been hit clean on the chin with guys that out weigh me by 40-50lbs and haven't been dropped in sparring.

So much cushioning, and it slows your hands down.

Beside it is one thing having the power to KO someone, it quite another to land that shot.

All this proves is yet again, when Conor comes in on the scales to the weights he's ideally for, p4p, how long did it take for Conor to hurt a guy? As if Andre Ward is going to go hard with Nate Diaz... sparring gloves vs 4oz. Smh

Please provide links to these quotes by Andre. TIA.

i wouldnt say better, but mcgregor did dropped nate a few times when ward couldnt.

Jesus Christ is it your first day in boxing for a lot of you guys? You know when you spar a guy who has a fight coming up you don't go in trying to kill him right?

What would be the purpose of pointing this out?

Ward KO'd (or at least rocked) a guy most people swore he couldn't.

nothing really but just to show that conor dropped nate when ward couldnt. and if you count that ref stoppage as a legit ko then more power to you.

Couldn't or didn't?

It's in the record books as KO so yes. I feel pretty good about it.

You know boxers don't spar with 4 oz gloves right?

Funny that your username is commonsense because you don't have any.
