[@brucendolf]

@@alanzom1503 im a big conor fan and he s the reason i started watching mma. We will never see again the conor of the 145 run to double champ. He was a super complete and mobile fighter now he just wants to left hand the other fighters. He is done. Maybe ido portal is not a bad idea if he wants to rethink and change everything but his reply made me laugh too much :DDDDDDDDDDDD and btw why the fuck you call me adolf you *******************

[@gabrielg3617]

Because of this guy conor was sooo light on the feet now hes just too heavy on his lead leg which makes him vulnerable against leg kicks and makes him lose alot.

[@AudreyGoncalves-]

For me this is the most interested thing I’ve ever seen in the MMA industry. Using the balance and being calm to understand how your body moves is just amazing !

[@jeffb7256]

Only people who have actually fought in combat sports would understand the importance of movement training, rhythm and balance. One form most recognise is momentum, it allows you to get in rhythm and start connecting with the external stimuli better or as you would say, it helps the fighter throw punches, dodge, kick etc.

[@ELV547]

This is some of the best touchbutt I've seen from Conor.

[@SpontaneityJD]

Come on guys, a little touchbutt is good for the soul. Hate on Ido all you like, but he helped sculpt Conor's unique style of movement. As long as Conor is focusing on sparring, jiu-jitsu and his bread and butter of training--once a week of touchbutt is perfect.

[@inquisitor4635]

Yeah, I was fully impressed by Conor's jiu-jitsu that last fight, exemplary...superb.

[@TheGeorgepao13]

+inquisitor well if you saw the fight 1st round conor threw nate down like a bag of potatoes. I would try to explain you what fatigue and panic mode are but it would be pointless anyways

[@inquisitor4635]

Gp TheLastSinigami The first round was a draw. Nate out punched and defeated Conor in every way.

[@davetruczinskas8650]

[@inaciotrinita]

+Snow Kestrel Why??

[@fewhavestrength]

My personal opinion is that portal has helped McGregor become greater! That moment he displayed in the Aldo fight was portals doings, watch how he imitated his movements back and forth... amazing.

[@garbarrage]

Portal had fuck all to do with that win. Aldo threw himself at McGregor, left himself wide open and got clipped. Conor had been doing that back and forward thing for years. Having Portal in his corner was a massive mistake. What advice can Portal give Conor during a fight?

[@MINISTRYOFTRANCE]

I agree man that movement training does help in some respect , he looked looser than when he fought Mendes

[@screwattack4109]

exactly people talking all this touch butt shit, but the Aldo win was all the movement training, and then in the Nate fight he used none of the amazing movement like he has in all his previous fights and he lost. so the touch seems to be working. just idiots that keep talking shit about conor getting choked out, but people seem to forget that the fight was actually over on the feet when conor gassed and got rocked. it's like these people don't even pay attention to the fights... shocker.

[@MINISTRYOFTRANCE]

[@stripe61]

Finally, a creative and original comment from a Diaz nuthugger.

[@Sirwastealot]

What would that look like, Conor keeps touching the butt repeatedly until the ref jumps in waving his hands like mad "Stop! Stop! I've seen enough of this!" And Rogan goes: "That's a great stoppage mike! Nate was not intelligently defending his butt"

[@Vuongedge]

Having this guy in Mcgregors corner was like having Cus D'amato in Tyson's corner. Both left and their potentials were never pushed beyond the limits at the time. Conor always had such beautiful movement understanding the flow of human movement hence his timing and accuracy is so precise. You can still see it today but obviously very minimal. The way he missed his first left hand onto donald cerrone and maintained balance mid air is a thing of beauty. It's a true shame that he hasn't utilized this aspect of his fight game as much lately. The bouncing in and out, the flow of the body. Can't take credit away from having a gameplan against him e.g. Dustin's calf kicks but I truly believe mcgregors in and out darting would have avoided a lot of the calf kicks in the 2nd fight possibly changing the outcome. Anyways, watching his prime still amazes me today to see how crazy of a run he had in the UFC.

og swank Because you are the all knowing expert about what someone elses training does for them right ? lol.

[@jjp976]

+og swank you completely ignored his correct statement by just saying "OH HES GOING TO LOOSE ANYWAY!" Typical Mcgregor haters. Just here to hate but have no real understanding or intelligent input. I bet these balance drills help his co-ordination, balance, movement etc. Just because he lost and nate called it touch butt everyone follows suit? You really he's spending all his time "playing touch butt"... clearly you haven't seen the other 99% of his pre fight training videos. And way to quote Nate and the end you Dork!

[@Eraw386]

+JJ p im fans of both fighters idiot just saying playing touch butt will not help you against the diaz brothers u guys dont kno shit about this sport..

[@jjp976]

og swank Way to show your appreciation for fighters you are a fan of. Hate to see how you talk about fighters you don't like. Again, training movement and balance drills obviously has is pros. lots of other high level ufc fighters do the same thing. A small amount of this training will absolutely help him not hurt him. Stop saying shit cause you see it everywhere else. Do some research, learn, and form your own opinion son!

[@nikhilmaharaj6376]

love these uploads, keep em up< Thank YOU!

[@MrGunnerguy123]

People clearly don't realise what idos purpose is. He is employed for the final week or two to keep Conor loose and his reactions sharp. He has just done 3 months of regular sparring in all forms of MMA. Ido is more of a extravagant chiropractor than a coach. Conor and John kavanagh have both said that he is used for a few weeks in every camp

[@inquisitor4635]

Chiropractic is strictly spinal manipulation when medically necessitated by an out of alignment vertebra. That's it period. None of that was in this video. There is no connection.

[@Teran305]

It's amusing how Conor lost to Nate and everyone decides that the reason he lost the fight is due to his movement coach that comes in a week out from the fight to teach him new patterns and mobilize his joints. You keyboard warriors don't know more than a world class fighter. If a week is enough to make or break the fight (it is not) he can't win anyways. Movement training is beneficial for everyone.

[@imakemisteaks]

are you serious? because he is an expert at MOVEMENT. Sure jiu jitsu is good but he already does that once a day idiot

[@imakemisteaks]

Well, Conor and his team disagrees. I trust they know better than you.

[@Teran305]

***** there is no such thing as "Ido Portal movement". No single human can hold claim to the basic movement of the body. Muscles that are incredibly strong, agile, and at the same time durable in vulnerable positions are useless for fighting? Since when did mobility, relative strength, balance, and body awareness become impractical? maybe you should take over and Conor would have a better chance of winning.

[@Teran305]

***** You don't think Conor's been busting his ass daily working with top jiu jitsu athletes? (though boxing and cardio were his detriments in the fight) I think you're forgetting that Ido trains with Conor a week out from the fight. His whole training camp does not revolve around Ido. Movement training is beneficial for anyone regardless who is teaching it. Don't lose sleep over it.

[@Teran305]

Yes now. Oh sorry he should probably hire 100 jiu jitsu athletes that'd be way more efficient. i never said jiu jitsu isn't movement training. it is one form of movement. Ido focuses on all forms of movement. He is a generalist not a specialist. That movement at 1:22 is not some fight technique he is gonna use against nate lol. Again he is loosening up ONE week out before the fight. This isn't the main focus of his fight camp. I don't know why you're telling me all this stuff though. You should tell Conor. Im sure he'll hire you to redesign his training camps.

[@paragon1017]

i highly doubt he takes it seriously.

[@yoReaction]

maybe you just don't understand what he's teaching and if Conor is staying with him he must be good and must be affective

[@insight1025]

Somewhat true, Conor is too focused on movement and fidgeting back- forth too much in a fight, over practicality and side stepping to get angle, so far I see him doing the same things, his habit of dipping his head in to his right against Nate is going to probably end the same way via stun and submission. Conors kicks, as fancy as they are, are not practical and he also spreads his legs out too much, which makes him slow on the kicking draw and set up. Nate's lead hand is going to pose trouble for Conor no matter the changes he makes are to his Jiu-Jitsu. There are several weaknesses to his game but, you never know how much of it he will work out.

[@ezmkmone53]

true on some things but false on others

[@MegaHard0n]

Coner back at it again with the touchbutt!

[@JGFormentin]

I think Ido is good for Conor. So much of what makes Conor great is his movement. This is the first footage I've seen this camp of him doing movement which is smart because the majority of the hard training should have been done already and now its about staying loose. He will need to stay loose and relaxed this fight because if Conor is going to win its gonna be a 5 round war.

Lol he is definetlively losing again after playing touchbutt with the dork in the park again.

[@pinkbug8u]

he seems to only reserve this type of training at the end of camp with only a week or so to go b4 the fight. I doubt it makes all the stuff he did beforehand any worse. He did win like 7 times with this method and lost only once. Like every fighter says during fight week the hard work is already done.

[@evanreiser9106]

you're right, except he's only had two camps with Portal. the aldo fight and Diaz 1. Portal's job can be seen by somebody who doesn't understand the full scope of his work as basically to make sure on top of all the skill building, strengthening and conditioning Conor has done since march, he is "soft" or free with his movement so he doesn't injure himself and can stay fresh.

[@eoinsmith1996]

UFC's Embedded was so successful that any of the video's CMG was in, the views would rise well above the millions and people were even calling it "Mcbedded". When Conor started this I think he had a vision of something very similar to that, but they show very irrelevant and boring stuff on TheMacLife, added with inappropriate music. Get the production guys from UFC Embedded and I think this will really take off. (Hugely disappointing ATM)

Ido portal is actually awesome at what he does and I believe he helps Conor get loose and relaxed ready for the fight. But he will always be called the master of "touch butt", (gotta love Nate for that one) only this time it's not in the park it's in the gym.

[@Knights2theEnd]

How many fights has Ido Portal won?

[@mjp102]

Well to be fair he's not a boxing or jiu-jitsu coach and is only there to improve Conor's movement\agility. He works with all kinds of athletes not just fighters. Conor lost his last fight because his gas tank was empty after the first 7 minutes not because his movement or jiu-jitsu sucks.
