I have to say, and I'll be blasted for this, not too impressed, I remembered him lashing petis out of it, but not really the case, yes he beat em up but he was just stronger I thought. he's another one of these lads that walks around after you, quite flat footed, throwing power shots, powerful mid section kicks, powerful punches, (not nearly in mcgregors league) from planted feet too. in terms of accuracy or speed, not one bit. In fact I'm disappointed in petis for having been beaten by him on the night really. Petis hit him a few nice punches and they had no purchase really, where as McGregor would have made him feel it.
This has an effect on a fighter, because the aggressor gains confidence and the defender get's anxious. it causes hesitation and can you imagine if say Mcgregor hesitated against aldo?? he didn't, he didn't panic and he reverted to all too frequent type, good knockout.
Mcgregor is 1" taller than RDA and has a 4 inch reach advantage, also if RDA is bigger (and he is very much so) this weight cut with no IV recovery, may be hard on him.
I watched mcgregors fight against Ivan Buchinger at 155 and he did not look physically different really but by jasus was he fast and powerful. That fight made all his UFC fights actually look slow, he was fierce impressive, no wonder white signed him. Id say the Brazilians will do and take anything not to lose this, I'd say if you test RDA the day of the fight, he'd be off the charts. Think of it, another Brazilian fighting icon, stripped by the Irishman!! consecutively???
if conor can stay away from them heavy legs he'll beat em I feel, they guy's simply not fast enough. If he's getting picked apart early on, he'll dive for cover and try use that BJJ black belt grade of his. you have to imagine also, he's slower and also half as dynamic as ALDO so avoiding his kicks should be easy enough, its not like conor mcgregor hasn't been practicing really.
As the great man says precision beats power

You my friend are one of the biggest victims of this,so wound up by his antics it drives you to follow fans of his like me around on here,may Conor Bless you.
Do you not realise that people dislike posters like you, because you clutter up the forum with rubbish, no one actually dislikes McGregor the fighter just his fanboys who have zero interest in MMA but like the drama and have to parrot out out his lines.
Although in fairness I get a good laugh out of the PMs0 -

So now the EX FW champion, EX P4P king and the man who had went 10 years unbeaten is saying he had an agreement that the winner would move to LW, vacate the FW belt so that the loser would fight Frankie? hahahahahahahahaaha
Where to start with how incredibly bizarre this sounds...well I'll just leave it with, what would have happened id Chad beat Frankie the night before? Hmmmmm loser vs loser for the FW belt.....don't think so!"I won’t accept another fight if it’s not for the belt. When we signed the contract, the intention was that the winner would fight at lightweight, but we would need to abandon the featherweight belt. That was the plan, that's what they told us. If we fought at lightweight, win or lose, and then had the opportunity to fight at featherweight again, it would be for the title immediately. I think they gave him too much power and he's playing now, calling the shots more than the others. I think that's wrong, no one ever did that. It doesn't matter if it's about money or not at this point, what matters is show who calls the shots, who's the boss, and not just a piece of s--t talking about things you see. He doesn't deserve to be where he is. I've always respected all the merits, but he had more luck than merits."

Take it to pm, or put each other on ignore. Either way, stop clogging up this thread with nonsense.0
