Era? It was like 3 good wins... Aldo, mendes, and alverez.. you casuals really trip out.. yall like to say holloway, and poirier... Those dudes were green af then... Nothing to what they became . They look completley different and cant be considered era material..not at the time he beat them... Hell even medes was short notice.. medes ran outta gas due to that ... Lets be real here.. conor has a handful of credible wins... Ill count mendes. But aldo, alverez. And even if you count holloway and poirier , which you shouldnt, that 4 credible wins in the ufc...

I will never understand why Conor went away from his insanely unpredictable style of mixing in kicks, knees, elbows, spinning attacks out of nowhere, mixing in a take down here and there, giving you so much to worry about and then boom hits you with the deadly left hand to put you away with one shot. I understand the competition wasn't as good back then but his attacks were so effective and entertaining and he used to give his opponents so much to worry about... and then gradually over time it just seems like he only relied on his left hand and a few teep kicks to keep his opponents at range. And yes i know that worked for him very well at featherweight but eventually his game became so predictable and he never adapted to the evolution of the game, all he does now is rely on his left hand to hopefully catch someone. Aside from the money and fame, just looking at conor as a fighter, I'm very disappointed in how he just basically became a boxer with 4oz gloves on. He still brings the fight every time and never has a boring bout, but I really wish he kept his unpredictable style from when he was younger... is his coaching to blame?

Kinda think training for Floyd screwed his style up long term unfortunately, with that said I don’t think he’s washed by any means. He’s been fighting the best of the best (Cowboy aside), if they could get him back to his style around the Eddie fight, he could stick around the top for a little while longer. Although, he may just do big money fights going forward
@harrisonveirs2 жыл бұрын
Ok, let me help you understand. Ypu are a world class athlete, with several KO victories. You get run down by Nate Diaz at a weight class you've never fought at..... and now all the sudden, you are a tap machine. Every single fan that ISN'T supporting you, now says you have a cardio issue. People like Joe Rogan having guests on his show like Firas Zihabi, who say you CAN'T fight any other way. Fast Twitch muscles this, can't make it past round 2 that. Every single person, fan and media outlet, all say you have a cardio problem. Then you run out of steam against Floyd. The narrative continues. Do you think. At any point, Conor was desperate to be known as a 5 round warrior? Even the man who can shake off any trash talk, do you think he may have been desperate enough to change the narrative, thatbhe changes his style as well ? It's easy to fan in love with one aspect of MMA. BJJ guys get obsessed with striking, or a wrestler gets a KO so now he's a KO artist. Kickers like to box.... Conor changed from pressure, time, age, hus body changing, and out of a desire to win. He wanted to be the guy that can finish you in round 1, or last through round 5. The conserved, big hits show that.

I don't think I've ever seen a more electrifying and unpredictable striker than Conor when he was fighting Alvarez, so much skill and an unbelievable drive to succeed. Conor deserves everything he has now IMO. I really hope he doesn't come back to fight though, the reason he was great was because he was climbing the mountain, he had hunger and drive, unfortunately his fighting career started declining when he had reached the top. No disrespect in the slightest, he's changed the UFC forever and I hope he comes back as a commentator or creates a podcast about the UFC, really hope he stays part of the sport but just not as a fighter.

Anderson silva was doing it before Conor mcgregor. Silva didnt have quick knowckouts like conor, but he gave a new meaning to "skill" when he toyed with his opponents. Conor has skills as well ... but what i am saying is anderson silva brought that to the table long before conor did. The twist that conor brought to the MMA world was that he showed MMA is "entertainment business". Other fighters were all about being humble, being best fighter, all about belt etc etc .... but conor showed that there is more to it .... he showed how your entertainment appeal need to extend outside of ring as well (press conferences, interviews, etc). And now many other fighters try to copy his template

Great era. His technique was ridiculously unpredictable and amazing to watch. It still annoys me till this day that he stopped constantly fighting after UFC 205. I know he had a kid and wanted to take a break but his breaks were wayy to long. After UFC 205 one foot was already out the door.

Intentionally? He's lost to Diaz, Khabib, Dustin twice. Beat Diaz in a rematch, beat Alvarez(probably the worst champion in ufc history), beat Cerrone(who has permanent brain damage) He also went to boxing... all of this since 2016 Before that I agree, he was the most entertaining person, and also fighter because of his flash knockout capabilities. If he fought at featherweight his whole career, probably would have suited him more. He hasn't done anything since moving up, again 2016!!! I would put him in the top 10 ufc fighters of all time, because he was the first double champ. But mostly for what he did at featherweight
@edris27012 жыл бұрын
@@edris2701 The thing is man, let's look at that: He lost to Diaz but let's not forget that he fought him on 11 days notice up from lightweight champion RDA to Nate, a completely different style of fighter who flourishes in 5 round fights (even when he loses he just seems to keep going for 5 straight rounds) which was particularly bad for a heavier Conor's first time at welterweight. He lost to Khabib but did better in some instances than Poirier and Gaethje (e.g. the takedown defence). Again with Dustin, in the rematch he was piecing him up until the leg kicks kicked in (again, it's entirely his fault due to the boxing stance he was using while preparing for Pacquiao) but his striking was miles ahead of Poirier's aside from the odd shot. In the rubber match it was pretty even and McGregor broke his leg, not a legitimate win by Poirier at all and should have been a no contest. He put on a masterclass against the same Eddie Alvarez who destroyed RDA in one round, gave Poirier a good fight before the DQ and knocked out Gaethje in his first loss (pre head movement Gaethje) but still, it's how easily Conor dismantled him. And you're right how boxing was the worst move he could have ever made. And I agree his best moments were in featherweight beyond beating Nate in a 5 round war and utterly ruining Eddie.

Man Mcgregor hit like Thor's hammer for his size. Diaz had to cut weight to make 170lbs and is 6'1. Conor was the 145lb champion and only 5'9 fighting Diaz 2 full weights above Conor's division and Conor was still dropping Diaz over and over. Gotta give Nate props for taking all that damage even though he slurs his speech now and his brain seems damaged. That Conor that landed that 4 punch Combo on the bigger 155lb champion Eddie Alvarez was simply...MAGIC !!!

So grateful I got to watch his run from Brimage on, and bet on The Mac every win. And that's coming from a Philly guy, who lived a mile from where Eddie The Underground King Alvarez was raised. In fact, THAT fight against Alvarez they closed off my block and the bars at each end served up a near riot while showing the fight on a screen that spread across the street. Needless to say, I had to bite my tongue when Conor won. I felt bad for the Alvarez fans, the block got as quiet as a funeral. Eddie is still a beast. Conor has apparently moved on beyond the ring now.

I wish I'd been into MMA to witness Conor's prime run through Marcus Brimage to Eddie Alvarez. must've been a hell of a time to be a fan
It was my friend an honour!
It was definitely a treat to watch.i used to record every new fight
That's when I started watching, it was awesome
Dude it was awesome
There was nothing like it man. It’s sad what Conor has become now but his rise was absolutely incredible to witness
I will never understand why Conor went away from his insanely unpredictable style of mixing in kicks, knees, elbows, spinning attacks out of nowhere, mixing in a take down here and there, giving you so much to worry about and then boom hits you with the deadly left hand to put you away with one shot. I understand the competition wasn't as good back then but his attacks were so effective and entertaining and he used to give his opponents so much to worry about... and then gradually over time it just seems like he only relied on his left hand and a few teep kicks to keep his opponents at range. And yes i know that worked for him very well at featherweight but eventually his game became so predictable and he never adapted to the evolution of the game, all he does now is rely on his left hand to hopefully catch someone. Aside from the money and fame, just looking at conor as a fighter, I'm very disappointed in how he just basically became a boxer with 4oz gloves on. He still brings the fight every time and never has a boring bout, but I really wish he kept his unpredictable style from when he was younger... is his coaching to blame?
Leg pain probably got something to do with it. As you get older that stuff never goes away. And he has been issues with that since years ago so it’ll only get worse
Kinda think training for Floyd screwed his style up long term unfortunately, with that said I don’t think he’s washed by any means. He’s been fighting the best of the best (Cowboy aside), if they could get him back to his style around the Eddie fight, he could stick around the top for a little while longer. Although, he may just do big money fights going forward
Ok, let me help you understand. Ypu are a world class athlete, with several KO victories. You get run down by Nate Diaz at a weight class you've never fought at..... and now all the sudden, you are a tap machine. Every single fan that ISN'T supporting you, now says you have a cardio issue. People like Joe Rogan having guests on his show like Firas Zihabi, who say you CAN'T fight any other way. Fast Twitch muscles this, can't make it past round 2 that. Every single person, fan and media outlet, all say you have a cardio problem. Then you run out of steam against Floyd. The narrative continues. Do you think. At any point, Conor was desperate to be known as a 5 round warrior? Even the man who can shake off any trash talk, do you think he may have been desperate enough to change the narrative, thatbhe changes his style as well ? It's easy to fan in love with one aspect of MMA. BJJ guys get obsessed with striking, or a wrestler gets a KO so now he's a KO artist. Kickers like to box.... Conor changed from pressure, time, age, hus body changing, and out of a desire to win. He wanted to be the guy that can finish you in round 1, or last through round 5. The conserved, big hits show that.
@@floatinggoose9197 great take sir, makes a lot of sense. Specially with the 2nd Poirier fight, he wanted to get a few raunds in. Biggest mistake of his life I suppose

I don't think I've ever seen a more electrifying and unpredictable striker than Conor when he was fighting Alvarez, so much skill and an unbelievable drive to succeed. Conor deserves everything he has now IMO. I really hope he doesn't come back to fight though, the reason he was great was because he was climbing the mountain, he had hunger and drive, unfortunately his fighting career started declining when he had reached the top. No disrespect in the slightest, he's changed the UFC forever and I hope he comes back as a commentator or creates a podcast about the UFC, really hope he stays part of the sport but just not as a fighter.
Conor was the beggining of the finesse over force era. He embodied technique and mechanics over strength and power. Conor was a true martial artist and started the new era of fighting. He brought the game to the next level like it or not.
people don't want to acknowledge this. look at him resisting Khabib's takedowns for example, incredible balance. he put up an intelligent contest away from the fence. others should have been taking notes
And from his relaxation, he hits really hard bc he can create a lot a power with such a tension release
Anderson silva was doing it before Conor mcgregor. Silva didnt have quick knowckouts like conor, but he gave a new meaning to "skill" when he toyed with his opponents. Conor has skills as well ... but what i am saying is anderson silva brought that to the table long before conor did. The twist that conor brought to the MMA world was that he showed MMA is "entertainment business". Other fighters were all about being humble, being best fighter, all about belt etc etc .... but conor showed that there is more to it .... he showed how your entertainment appeal need to extend outside of ring as well (press conferences, interviews, etc). And now many other fighters try to copy his template
Great era. His technique was ridiculously unpredictable and amazing to watch. It still annoys me till this day that he stopped constantly fighting after UFC 205. I know he had a kid and wanted to take a break but his breaks were wayy to long. After UFC 205 one foot was already out the door.
hey larone I'm sure you hear this often but your videos are all brilliant. I've been a casual fan but never really did a deep dive into mma until recently, and your videos have helped to catch me up on these events that i missed out on. you don't miss a beat, from the pre fight interviews to the highlights to the post fight. good shit, keep it up!!!!!

@@matrixdeprogrammed1271 lmao so much hate calm down 🤣
Well done Larone. People have intentionally ignored how good this man once just because of what he's done out of the octagon since.
Intentionally? He's lost to Diaz, Khabib, Dustin twice. Beat Diaz in a rematch, beat Alvarez(probably the worst champion in ufc history), beat Cerrone(who has permanent brain damage) He also went to boxing... all of this since 2016 Before that I agree, he was the most entertaining person, and also fighter because of his flash knockout capabilities. If he fought at featherweight his whole career, probably would have suited him more. He hasn't done anything since moving up, again 2016!!! I would put him in the top 10 ufc fighters of all time, because he was the first double champ. But mostly for what he did at featherweight
@@edris2701 The thing is man, let's look at that: He lost to Diaz but let's not forget that he fought him on 11 days notice up from lightweight champion RDA to Nate, a completely different style of fighter who flourishes in 5 round fights (even when he loses he just seems to keep going for 5 straight rounds) which was particularly bad for a heavier Conor's first time at welterweight. He lost to Khabib but did better in some instances than Poirier and Gaethje (e.g. the takedown defence). Again with Dustin, in the rematch he was piecing him up until the leg kicks kicked in (again, it's entirely his fault due to the boxing stance he was using while preparing for Pacquiao) but his striking was miles ahead of Poirier's aside from the odd shot. In the rubber match it was pretty even and McGregor broke his leg, not a legitimate win by Poirier at all and should have been a no contest. He put on a masterclass against the same Eddie Alvarez who destroyed RDA in one round, gave Poirier a good fight before the DQ and knocked out Gaethje in his first loss (pre head movement Gaethje) but still, it's how easily Conor dismantled him. And you're right how boxing was the worst move he could have ever made. And I agree his best moments were in featherweight beyond beating Nate in a 5 round war and utterly ruining Eddie.
@@user-nv2wt4hi8t Him going to boxing, just took time away from him improving his weakness. Cardio and grappling, which can work together basically. I just think his legacy is being tarnished from what it should be, by his own doing, not that people are intentionally putting down what he achieved. Every fight from now on, will just target what he's not good at.. lightweight aint no joke. Justin, Islam, Dariush, Olivera, even Poirer one more time. Heck, even Tsaryukin is gonna be a problem!!!
@@edris2701 u have to appreciate Conor’s braveness, he wasn’t scared , he moved 2 weight classes to WW to fight nate Diaz only because RDA pulled out (lightweight), fought Diaz again in WW, out of the octagon for 2 years of inactivity and came back to fight khabib, left for another about 2 years to move up to ww and fight cerrone, then inactive for another 2 years to fight dustin back in LW
his style precision and bravery inside the octagon makes him one of the best fighter we ever had.
Conors come up was so crazy man I miss that time period. Love him or hate him he brought so much exposure to UFC
His duck under with the counter left to become the cage warriors double champ is one of my favorite finishes in any combat sport ever

Genuinely think he can make a comeback, in his physical prime right now. He really just needs new coaches, and even against poirier in the 3rd fight when he broke his ankle, he was looking solid like he might win.

“He might win” hahahahahahahaha
You're complaining about Poirier using the cage to get out of it while ignoring the multiple illegal moves he did?

Are you dumb? Conor has cheated more than 90% of fighters and gets away with it lmao
😂 he looked horrible in the 3rd Dustin fight. Conors best round is the first and then he starts fading while Dustin’s worse round is the first and he gets better as rounds go on and Dustin won the first round too in that fight. Remember Conor went for the takedown cause he didn’t wanna stand anymore lol. He had said 1st one to shoot is a bitch and he shot first.
That first fight when he ducks the punch and counters, that was bad ass. I wish I could do that 😂
When conor put out aldo with the first strike he threw 10 seconds into round one the whole mma world knew the hype was real. Watching him lose to nate and make no excuses earned my respect. Hope they wrap up that trilogy. That combo to Eddie was vicious. Precision to the max.
The clash between him and Khabib was every MMA fans dream. Such contrast in fighting styles and personalities. And both at top of their game, doesn't get better than that

His punches had so much zap on em. In the early days his kicks were so next level Machida stuff
So glad I got to experience what was the most exciting period of MMA.
When did you become a fan? Just curious
same Conor has given the UFC more fans than any other athlete has given his sport its so crazy, Conor also got myself into watching the UFC and loving his fights, shit it even got Khamzat taking going professional in MMA serious he said after the Conor vs Aldo fight because he saw how much money Conor was making and what a big star he is and he thought why not me some time in the future its my dream and he started going way harder and will be a champ in the future Conor changed the whole UFC and the whole sport of MMA
He was so good in Eddie fight. No one could beat him there.
I believe on that night he beats the best of them including Khabib
I really hope this guy comes back on top
Man Mcgregor hit like Thor's hammer for his size. Diaz had to cut weight to make 170lbs and is 6'1. Conor was the 145lb champion and only 5'9 fighting Diaz 2 full weights above Conor's division and Conor was still dropping Diaz over and over. Gotta give Nate props for taking all that damage even though he slurs his speech now and his brain seems damaged. That Conor that landed that 4 punch Combo on the bigger 155lb champion Eddie Alvarez was simply...MAGIC !!!
The hype was so real back in the day
"A martial artist has an open mind and is peaceful" -McGregor
He did everything he said 🙌🏻
@Larone---great video fam. I've been watching your channel for a solid 3 years, and you have never failed on posting fantastic UFC videos
Mcgregor was something else before He changed so much I miss his prime time he was undefeated The face of UFC
He’s such a beast even though I’m more of a Poirier fan I still like to see Connor succeed bc when he does he so ENTERTAINING 😂💯
So grateful I got to watch his run from Brimage on, and bet on The Mac every win. And that's coming from a Philly guy, who lived a mile from where Eddie The Underground King Alvarez was raised. In fact, THAT fight against Alvarez they closed off my block and the bars at each end served up a near riot while showing the fight on a screen that spread across the street. Needless to say, I had to bite my tongue when Conor won. I felt bad for the Alvarez fans, the block got as quiet as a funeral. Eddie is still a beast. Conor has apparently moved on beyond the ring now.
Awesome video as always, cant wait to see Covington vs Masvidal best moments
"no power just PRECISION, no speed just TIMING" wow monster councils, master councils .... so TRUE in martial art !
When he fought Alvarez… I never saw faster combinations from him than in that fight. That was his prime.
After their trilogy I have a new respect for Dustin, my guy has been and always will be Connor. I train hard everyday because of Connor!!!!!
God bless you Mr. McGregor from Spanierd suporter, you are so Great. Hart and Corage.
Legend
You did it bro. You accomplished so much. Happy for you and all God has given you.
He is entertaining people and he is legend 👏God bless him
6.24 Watched that KO plenty of times but missed the ref getting Jose to kiss his knee. Respect Jose, you are a good man.
9:36 this is art
That's UFC right there
Mans had wonderboy style kicks in terms of unpredictability. Nvr saw them coming until it was too late
Connor broke his leg and was still shit talking Bro is literally a menace
the second fight with nate was so funny kept knocking him down and nate was like “come here come on “ conor’s like “nah get ur ass back up “ lmao he fights better on feet anyway
The ending clip is how I'll remember Conor. True Mix Martial Artist.
what a fighter he was, very unpredictable but sadly changed his style and here we are
You really don't understand what it means to get 2 ufc belts and 100+ millions in your bank account... who's gonna be hungry for fights after that? But he loves to fight and I hope he will not stop any time soon
Cocaine
Injuries. I guarantee that was the biggest factor.
@@MikePasqqsaPekiM nah the money after he fought Floyd and his fame all over the world, having 200 million in your bank and not having trained MMA for a year just boxing changes you, he was never even 20% as motivated as he was before and was even too lazy to learn back his old stance and just developed a stiff boxing style in MMA through his year just training boxing for Floyd and getting used to it, its also probably not easy to motivate you to fight in the UFC anymore when you have like 200 million dollars in your bank and you´re already set for 20 luxurios lifetimes lol
6:25 ref got in on the action as well 😂😂
What an amazing career. Mcgregor is a once in a lifetime
Prime mcgregor was an absolute warrior his fighting style was so fun and cool to watch
i honestly believe that if he respected khabib's striking more and wasn't hit by that overhand he might have found a way to win that fight
I respect what you're saying and yes it could happen. That's why I truly believe this is easily the best sport in the world. But I think Khabib wins 10 out of 10 with him.
@@chrislair6832 Khabib wouldnt beat the Conor that fought Eddie Alvarez in 2016 for his champ champ status, he was untouchable that night it was probably his best performance he probably had never trained as hard for a fight as he did for his champ champ fight and holy shit you could see it Conors performance that night was magical, this Conor that night beats any lightweight ever imo it was one of the most beautiful striking and counter striking performance against someone who was a great fighter and definitely not washed lol, not even 1 year later he was the first one to ever knockout Justin Gaethje in a fight he was also absolute world class but a Conor that motivated made him look like an amateur, I think that Conor beats every fucking Lightweight that has ever existed
When Conor is on point he is without a doubt one of the greatest of all time
Adding notorious to the video was a great touch
I have been a fan since pride and wec. In all my time watching no one but a select few have made me feel like I’m watching an anime protagonist like Connor …, I had Dustin Chad Aldo and Eddie beating him not ashamed to admit I was wrong. This time in his career is legendary
Say what you want! The man did his thing and he's was great! No one is not gonna remember him! 💪
Conor really was rocking and wobbling dustin it’s sad he ain’t capitalize
9:36 - 9:38 That 4 piece combo was beautiful.
When he fought chad that was his best style ever. Leg kicks, front kicks and his hands were just flashing lights
That laugh from the aldo conference is amazing
Dude when Conor fought he brought IRELAND with him! A whole entire country! I miss that ENERGY! I prefer IRELAND FANS OVER AMERICANS! Sorry
Joe rogans “awe man” on that eddie combo kills me everytime 😂
Props for never doing any unnecessary follow ups
Nothing matters he will always be a legend
