Is connor past his prime?

[lparm]

I'd say the Aldo fight was his prime which was 2015. He struggled with Nate and didn't look his best against Eddie. The fight with Floyd would've been more competitive 2 years ago.

His prime went away with the 2 beatings he got from Diaz ... Simple... Tap-tap-tap ...

So Floyd is fighting another past his prime fighter and this is acceptable to the fans huh

He's been in several wars in a much tougher sport where serious injuries can occur at any time. At 29 Connor is past his best but that's probably why Floyd wants the fight now.

Tougher sport? I don't think so. More prone to brain trauma in boxing than MMA, 70% of which is submissions and ground game. Also, 15 minutes to a boxer is nothing.
