I really want to see the Dos Anjos vs Conor. I thought Cerrone vs Anjos was going to be a good fight, but Anjos tore through Cerrone.
Hell, I think Cerrone would give Conor a hell of a fight.
RDA beat Diaz convincingly too. Not to mention Pettis. I think Conor would have had the same issue with RDA that he had with Diaz in that he would have overestimated his punching power and blew his wad early. Anyways it would have been a good fight, but I think RDA would have KO/TKO'd Conor in two or three.
Conor is good, but he kinda bought into his own hype a bit. It appeared he was thinking he would walk through RDA or Diaz then challenge Lawler at UFC 200. But you never know, Diaz might just be a bad matchup for him because he can take a lot of punishment and has great boxing and jujitsu.
One funny thing I heard in the presser when talking about Aldo's tweet after the fight was that he was going to go back to 145 and remind everyone what he did to the division. I kinda want to see that rematch more than Conor at 155. I always thought that was somewhat of a fluke and the fans were kinda cheated out of a great fight.
If he had attacked Nate's lead leg and been more patient with his punches, he would have had a great shot.
Yeah, I dont get why he didnt do that. I thought he would kick Nates leg over and over till he couldnt stand, then finish with punches. But it really does seem like everything he does is just to disguise his left hand.
