he's gonna beat Aldo if Aldo sticks around the weight class long enough.
mark my words.
^^No belt^^
Chael=wrestler
Conor=striker/well rounded
Chael wasn't on my radar until he after the WEC fights. That's only b/c of the trash talking. Didn't become a fan until I realized that Chael really will step up and test himself against anyone. It's one of the reasons he won me over. Unlike Conor, Chael doesn't say he's the best. He thinks he is capable of beating any man on his best day, and is willing to give it a try, knowing he very well could get his ass kicked. Admirable.
Conor, if he loses, it will be a complete shock to him.
Also, Chael just finished Shogun, shows Chael is finally adding depth to his 2 dimensional game. Great job Chael, for going for and getting the finish-more importantly going for it.
Conor however, didn't finish Max Hollaway in a fight he dominated. Conor was very disappointed because he didn't get the finish. Chael always is happy just to get a win.

^^As Conor enters striking range, Marcus predictably drops down slightly to strike or defend and Conor^^ strikes upward down the middle with a front kick.
Brimage runs forward with a punch and is countered with a perfectly timed short elbow. It took him less than a minute to find Marcus's range and be able to stay close enough after being attacked to counter him.
Marcus wades in with a hook and McGregor stays just outside range and counters with a short left hand.
He uses angles excellently. He will attack forward, upward, downward, or to the side as appropriate. He places his punches purposefully, in the moment, he clearly does not fire pre-made combos out randomly.
And the finish. He is practically clowning Brimage with the fact that he can uppercut him almost at will due to his predictable body and head movement. He can't seem to help himself but lead head first, head down towards Conor when he wants to punch him. Conor picks his punches well and drops Brimage and pounds him out.
I LOVE GSP - he's gonna beat Aldo if Aldo sticks around the weight class long enough.Lol
mark my words.
Confused on the "rip fren".
Is that "RIP Fren", in response to Conor finishing Brimmage?
Is that "RIP fren" because you thought I just clearly won the argument/debate?
Is that "RIP fren" because I posted gifs and you think I'll be froze/banned?
D241 -
Half the people who watch MMA hate Chael Sonnen.
and
Chael has many more legs to stand on.<blockquote> Wrong, both Chael and Conor each have 2 legs to stand on.</blockquote> <blockquote> <br /> <strong>a)</strong> He is actually a fairly funny and smart guy, so I can see his fans, or people who are on the fence about him giving him a pass to make what in reality is still 'an ass' out of himself, <strong>because Chael and Connor will both never be champions.</strong></blockquote> <p> <strong><img alt="" src="http://i4.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article1516071.ece/ALTERNATES/s615/_MG_0139-1516071.jpg" /></strong></p> <blockquote> <br /> <strong>b) He has fought much harder competition, on a much higher level, for a much longer time.</strong></blockquote> <blockquote> Wrong. Chael Sonnen is 36, Conor is 25. You cannot possibly expect a 25yr old to have the same accomplishments and experience. Chael Sonnen had his 2nd pro mma fight at the age of 25. By the age of 25, Conor Mcgregor has won 2 belts, at two different weight classes, at the same time. Conor is also 2-0 in the UFC. Chael Sonnen went 1-1 his first 2 UFC fights, at the age of 29.

It is my opinion that Conor is not putting on an act, is naturally the way he comes off. Very confident in himself.</blockquote> <p> </p> <div> </div> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
Please don't take my corrections in a negative way.
I am sure there are many people who have never seen Conor's fights and either heard an interview and jumped on his nuts, or heard about the hype and jumped on his nuts. I however, watched footage of him before he ever fought in the UFC, and it was what I saw in terms of his fighting that made me say to myself-"wow, this guy is good, really good".
Watch a couple of his fights on youtube and judge his fighting skills for yourself.
Wanted to quote this since my original post was just quoting him and me saying I'm going to edit this post. Then the thread went to another page. This was my reply(end of page 1)C) Posting gifs fren
UGCTT_SidRival - Aldo takes this clowns lunch, eats it in front of him, then makes him throw away the trash.
lol. agreedok, moving forward on the fashion scene.
Finally ditched the cheezy bow tie, thanks goodness.
Now, let's work on the shoes,
and really,
no need for the pocket watch.
I guess Ireland is a bot behind the times.Gustafsson Broke Bones - ok, moving forward on the fashion scene.

what about the highwaters?????super nintendo -Stea1th -Cause sonnen actually had a reason for it because he whipped Anderson's as for 4.5 rounds and he wraps his legs around chael for 8 seconds. Connor is just being silly lol
everyone thought it was funny what sonnen did it...what's the big deal.
jeez.
What if there were no ref and Anderson held the choke for 98 seconds? And still secured the armbar? Would there still be a Chael Sonnen to speak of?
BTW bullrides last about 8 seconds. Maybe some things are just too complex for kids to understand.how long until the official apology to Jose Aldo?
It's just a joke, lighten up faggots.
I'd be stoked to hold the real belt too, and Prob take the same pic (although with the champ next to me)
DC_big_country_fried_chicken - It's just a joke, lighten up faggots.Well said. Some of the fags on this site take things way too seriously. He's a clever dude, 2 fights in the ufc and he's made himself one of the most talked about fighters.The kid can fight but sure needs lessons in dressing! Come on, he looks Amish!
Man I don't get the problem, it's a bit of fun. It's one of those things where everyone reads into something much more than it worth.
thetruetitan - if it was jones...Jones is a "c u next Tuesday"
