[@austinfarr2896]

Uncle Chael, you take away from Dustin's near flawless performance and perfect game plan when all you talk about is why Conor wasn't at his best. Conor looked great in the first round, he split Dustin's timing with his jabs and left straight, was strong and technically sound in the clinch, and cracked Dustin hard with his left straight(Dustin said so himself). Just because Conor doesn't bulldoze his opponent in the first round of the fight it doesn't mean he wasn't sharp in there. Dustin slammed home those low calf kicks early on and as you know even a couple calf kicks can immobilize your opponent, that resulted in Conor looking flat as the fight went on. It wasn't because Conor wasn't in shape it was because of what Dustin did to him with the calf kicks. Too much is being said about Conor's inactivity and not enough is being said about the best performance of Dustin's career. I suggest y'all go watch Luke Thomas' breakdown and really learn what went down last night.

[@augustinchauvet6281]

[@drewlandis3951]

Preach it man. I watched the first half of this video like...really? This is what's being said?. Goodness

[@tehZuko]

Conor looked far from great in the first round, he looked timid, hesitant, sloppy and slow. His boxing focused training has completely uprooted everything that made him special in his early 145 run. He stands in the pocket flat footed with poor head movement hoping for an easy knockout, which is a complete contradiction to his mindset of the old days. Abandoned the karate stance, the light on his feet-bouncy approach, ready to counter but always pressuring. He's a different fighter now, and I do think activity would make bounds of improvement for him, his new style is a poison to his record.

Conor was in the best shape of his life. Focused,too. But the sport has advanced and he was unprepared. The leg kicks meta was something that developed while he was away, Conor acknowledged that it was something he's never experienced before. Apart from that, he needs to stop with that flat footed boxing stance ,go back to the lighter in and out style he used to have and focus on countering again. What really worries me, however, is that he was lacking confidence. He was certainly nervous during the walk in, pacing around the octagon and already breathing from his mouth which is a sign he was stressed. Overly eager to start the fight, too. And when the first clean punch hit, he kinda looked like he didn't want to be there anymore. If he wants to be champ again,he'll have to overcome this battle within himself and see whether he can find that assassin mentality again inside of him. If not, he will lose his next fight, and that'll be the end of what could've been an even greater career and legacy.

[@patricksainclair2384]

Correct. The game left him at least 2-3 levels behind. The calf kicks, flurry punches, early takedowns... Poirier could’ve finished Conor the same way with 10 seconds left in the 5th round, and so I believe this version of Poirier beats the best versions of Conor.

I agree in the first round I think Conor looked good same with Dustin. In the beginning of the second same thing but I think that leg kick broke him. This fight could have gone either way. Even Dustin said he caught a hard left and if there was one more he would have been out. I think a second fight would be the same. People are so caught up in thinking that Conor is overrated to admit that it was a good fight. It was short but both were one mistake away from a knock out at that point and Dustin got it. It was almost like watching a hockey shootout!

Before the fight: *Conor looks like he's in the best shape of his career, he looks focused, calm and scary, Dustin looked nervous and off in the press conference Conor is in his head again, Conor will knock him out within a round* (Media outlets acted like Conor already won the fight before it took part, Stephen A Smith specifically asked Conor what he would do after knocking Dustin out) After the fight: *Conor had ringrust, he's not the same Conor from 2016, Conor looked slow and stiff, This was the worst form of Conor, His timing was off, He lost because of his stance* Conor is a great fighter but his fanbase is a bunch of whiny children that make bunch of excuses instead of crediting Dustin for the great performance and Chael Sonnen is the definiton of the word "casual"

[@josephsecker2066]

Poirier put on a phenomenal performance, he no doubt gets a title shot, the only person I can think is deserving to be his dance partner is Charlie Olives. Chandler was great but Poirier was right at the post fight conference, he beat a guy he’s already beat. He’s been fighting good talent at Bellator, but let’s be honest none of them would be top 10 in the UFC, maybe not even top 15. I think Chandler vs Gaethje is a great number one contender fight. Gaethje has a chance to come back from his loss to Khabib and Chandler can prove if he is really built for the title. As for Conor, there is talk about the Nate fight for the trilogy, which would be good. I’d honestly rather see Ferguson vs Mcgregor. It’s got a bit of trash talking history, it’s a money fight for Tony which I think he deserves and it’s a chance for Mcgregor to make a comeback for the belt.

[@eamonahern7495]

Conor is 1-2 at 155. I think the problem is Conor's interest in boxing. He's brought in the coach from his old boxing club and I haven't seen any touch butt guy for movement or any specialist grappling partner (although john Kavanagh is a bjj black belt) on his team. Max Holloway isn't sparring and put on a clinic against Kattar. Conor's boxing is the best when his movement isn't being stifled so he doesn't need extra training there. I think he needs to take a leaf out of Holloway's book in terms of boxing sparring. I reckon he needs to work on everything but boxing in his next training camp.

"Looked out of shape"? just 2 days ago u told Stephen A. he looks like a million bucks. As for that first takedown, it absolutely was not a fluke u should watch your buddy @Luke Thomas breakdown of this fight, particularly that takedown in the first round where he even broke down how Dustin adjusted his right foot to angle slightly to the outside so that he would be in a better position to complete that takedown. As for looking slow, I don't know what fight u were watching, his jab looked pretty damn fast to me, as did his famous left hand. In fact he landed the left hand clean more than once, Dustin was just able to eat them just like Nate did (minus getting dropped). He landed just as many shots as Dustin did in the first round and some very astute MMA people even gave him that first round (Kevin Iole and others). U need to stop making excuses for Connor, just admit ur prediction was way off and u have a blind spot for guys like Connor and Koby Kaos Kovington.

Conor sparring partners Must Fall like flies just to make him build confidence because only has about three good power shots and he fades you need to go to a real camp to get pushed like all the good Fighters

[@ahdasick]

@@cawbaird5711 have you guys seen his sparring partners? that’s why he got stale, his instinctual reactions in the pocket were bad, and he can’t blame it on the leg. Your natural reactions are built during training. He showed ALOT of lazy/bad habits. Only way you get away with that in training is when you train with tuna cans that don’t CAPITALIZE on mistakes made during sparring. he doesn’t need people to be rocking him during sparring, but he needs guys that can/will give him the level of competition he needs. I saw clips of his sparring, he spars with CANS. i honestly would whoop his sparring partners with the way they boxed. You’re only as good as the guys you train with. He dulled his own blade overtime. Part of it is inactivity, but the quality of your training is just as important. You can spend 10 years training with low caliber partners, but you’ll still lose to the guy who spent 1 year training with champs.

[@adammoore1542]

I think chael is very wrong in this one. Mcgregor looked really good, fast and sharp for most of the first round until those calf kicks started adding up. You could see him slow down because of his the calf kicks, not his conditioning or ring rust. The calf kicks were the main issue, if Dustin didn’t throw those mcgregor was gonna win. But Dustin fought a good intelligent fight, and won me a shit ton of money hahahaha

Amen. Conor recently stated he is looking for Highlight Reels to watch with his kids. Conor also predicted an earlier knockout. His intentions are misguided now. Materialism and ego is his g-d now. However he is not done if he refocuses. Khabib had a good point and backhandedly did what he hates Conor for, making fun of his family (Conors training team.)

Except his whole team, including him, had been saying this is literally the best he's ever been. I don't buy the excuses. He got beat. His leg got torn up, and he's too one dimensional to be able to adapt to that. Years after his debut, he's not evolved at all.
