Fun fact, Jake Paul has more professional combat sports matches and victories than Dildo Dannis. In fact, Dildo Dannis' life revolves around Jake Paul and Khabib. Just imagine a diehard fan of Dildo.
"The grappling community trying to say I can't grapple, but that's not just the Grappling community.

Dillon use to hang in Nassau County gyms back in the noughties. He was a janitor. It's great to see how far he's come. The guy is a straight up boss with a mop and bucket.
The thing is he doesn't need to be great at jiu-jitsu or wrestling, he just needs to be good at his defensive positioning & his ability to sprawl cause nobody in the game at 145 or 155 is on his level when it comes too striking.
Thad Campbell I agree, but I think Edson Barboza is as good as Conor on the feet. Conor punches hard and Edson kicks hard, those two would be a fun fight.
There are a lot of holes in Conor's striking game, thing is, his last 3 fights have been an illusion to noobie mma fans. He fought Diaz his last 2 fights and no offense to Diaz but he isn't a smart guy. Then before that was Aldo in 13 seconds. And before was vs Mendes where he barely won against someone who took the fight with no full camp. If Alvarez is smart he'll utilize feigns and close the gap immediately after Conor throws one of his leg kicks and throw a flurry when he's off balance. You guys will see, remember to like this comment after Alvarez beats Conor in this exact fashion.
Red Fad Alright bro since you're such a genius point out his holes in his striking...... He keeps his hand low that's about it but please let me hear your excellent analysis about his striking flaws while there's coaches like Firas & Eddie Alvarez's coach Mark Henry who say he has the best striking in mma.
People are crazy thinking Conor has no bjj, he's just had bad situations where he couldn't really show it was gassed and rocked against Diaz 1, Diaz 2 played it smart didn't wanna waste energy on the ground, think it's safe to say at 170 the tank is just shorter. Mendes he had something with his mcl and knee. No way a guy who has a bjj black belt as his head coach would be dead legged like he was on the grounds with Mendas unless something was wrong he has to much knowledge. Yet still rolled out the guillotine. and casual fans who think he has nothing on ground go watch him vs Holloway. No trying to be a defender but the man deserves fair honest and measured judgment.
People sleep on Conors Cardio because of his performances as a Welterweight. Just because Conor walks around around 165 doesn't mean that's his optimal fighting shape. As a featherweight, he can easily go five rounds and as a lightweight he won't be much different. Eddies in trouble.
Such a great quote from Conor. Saying all these different martial arts and communities say he can’t do this and that but he says let’s fight, they say oh only under these rules. It’s true what Conor said, all these boxers wanna say Conor can’t box yet they wouldn’t ever step in an octagon or the street with Conor, bjj and wrestlers say he can’t grapple but they wouldn’t fight him.
My favorite comment from Danis last week was that he (Danis) is a better version of Khabib so Conor would have no trouble handling Khabib's grappling in the fight....... not so much.....
@@KyosisPlays no, he did great! He held off the first takedown for at least 30 seconds! Then managed to only absorb 30-40 significant strikes on the ground! And hey, you can never say Conor doesnt have a good chin, he got dropped by that looping right and got right back up! Other than the 4-1 difference in strikes, the 15 minutes to 0 in control and the multiple sub attempts Conor was brilliant!
The thing is the fight against Nate showed what experience in jui jitsu can bring, it brings an extra element like its second nature for them. Conor has no where near the experience of Nate and it shows. Now I'm not the biggest Conor fan but I do respect him as a fighter and I feel that in the future he could be one of the best all round fighters in the 155 division as for right now I feel he is only the best striker
eddie's actually kept his cool pretty well in the pettis fight and ground him out against the cage. i think eddie can keep a cool head most of the time, but he just loses it once he thinks he's clipped somebody like he did the fight w/ dos anjos, and in the first round of his fight w/ cerrone.

Sadly 😔 this all means nothing because after what happened tonight and seeing that Khabib maybe a step or two behind Conor’s striking whereas Conor is miles behind Khabibs ground game
Question I got guys is how intense is Conor's training meaning as in real fight situation or is really pushed to the point where he loses or comes off second in wrestling / grappling situations ? What areas on the ground did last night performance show where Conor needs to improve ? Would like to know as I am learning the craft as a novice
@@tonyjlorns1727 Unfortunately for most Western European fighters there is no system of learning and competing in Olympic quality wrestling at a young age.

Matthew Leeming Intresting Matthew thank you for the feedback, so what your saying most Western fighters will be at a disadvantage whenever they face someone like Kabibs level of grappling which he has been learning since a kid? Do you know how hard the level of intensity is in someone like Conor's training camp? Can it replicate a real fighting scenario or not ? Also was the fact Conor didn't have a single warm up fight in 2 years a major factor or not in him losing that fight or not?

@@Math_Yeww not true at all. Wrestlings popularity is weird. It's very popular academically (at schools) but outside of that it's completely dead. So if you want to wrestle on a team for seven years (middle through Highschool) you can do so very easily. And you can get another four in college if you're skilled enough. But outside of a school setting karate, taekwondo and even judo and boxing are much more readily available. But given bjjs popularity I think it would be fairly easy for an American to reach khabibs grappling level by wrestling for eleven years with bjj/judo in the off season. The US has produced many olympic wrestling champions including Jordan Burroughs who is currently active, so in my opinion it is silly to say that there is no wrestling here. But that's just my opinion and you're free to form your own
nice video. good to hear an interview with conor where he isn't trash talking or chatting about his money. can actually see that martial arts really means a lot to him and his team. no doubt the whole world would tune into a grappling tournament if he entered
It'd be awesome if Conor had Josh Barnett and Erik Paulson train him in Catch Wrestling. He'd be able to hold off grapplers like Nate and RDA and still be aggressive and effective.
Damn, look at Dillon starting 2:40. Conor gets up, but Dillon hooks his right leg with his arm, then with his left arm, turns and hooks with his right leg and right arm. Beautiful sequence! So much more to be seen there, but this is lovely
Continuation : “At this point in time Jake Paul was still on Disney channel” and now Jake Paul is fighting UFC stars and Dillon Dannis is still struggling to get UFC fights
@@Peto111222 you know that’s actually true. Im a bug connor fan and i was suprised his aggressiveness and his striking didnt come out much in that fight
@@ColaKhanable Ya you cannot compare anyone in LW to Conor when it comes to striking but when it comes to being an complete fighter, no one compares to Khabib, GSP maybe a good match but still Khabib gets the job done. The way Khabib grapples is amazing and the fact you should see from the match is Conor escaped quite a few. Also, if you've seen the match and analyzed it, then it was Khabib who went out of 'father's plan' and kept raining punches on Conor and eating Conor's punches with his sheer aggressiveness.
Does nobody see conor using the technique dilon is using to escape the choke at 2:26-2:29 vs mendes before he knocked him out? Awesome to see him training then using what he learned on a fight
You and the rest have to wake up from the dormant state. If he has ever been compared to the Greats of the world ~M. Ali, or C. Sonnen etc, only the trash talk was considered;winning by fluke, defending by running... What's great about that?
+ya ya you sir is a idiot first of all that wasn't a fluke that was a perfect counter from the left hand to chin a move he has been practicing and enough with the he ran shit he reseted to catch his breath for 8 seconds and after that he engaged for most of the fight honestly your just a Conor hater and learn your facts
The King doesn't have to proof anything to anyone. The King has done that already, and will, once again, proof it by having those belts on both shoulders. #205
The whole boxing community said he would get destroyed by amateur boxers. An i wouldn't call his ground game suspect. People don't give diaz enough respect on how good at jitsu he is. He's a gracie black belt and might even have some degrees and that's no fucking joke. Connor is i think a brown belt. That's about 4-6 years of skill and experience nate had on him.
@@mctapper5988 I don't twitter so I'm not uptodate, I think he's lost his fight vs kabib only cos alcohol and drugs don't go well with performance. He was getting drunk at the press conference, far from the Conor we saw in 2015.
@@DSined-df1up Not always, but going from unemployement to having over 150000000 in three years can be indeed tricky. I don't judge, I just want him back.

How? He's traveling the US on his Whiskey tour, stores are selling out if it as well, is invited to a Dallas Cowboys game as a special guest to Jerry Jones, Made a few million off one fight to Khabib, still is counting the $100 million he made fighting Floyd.... Shit if that's an L for 2018 sign me up!!!!!!
Giraffe Juice Yeah right, all he'd need to do is what Demian Maia did, learn some distance management on the feet then get that takedown and submit over and over. The only thing is he'd be smart to use his great BJJ instead of trying to turn into a striker like some do
you saw that happen with jorge gurgel. dude at the time probably had the best jiu jitsu in all of mma but tried to bang with guys and got beat up a lot. shame what could have been.
Crazy to think Dillon is now 29 and has only had 2 mma fights since this video. Talk about wasted potential, don't like him but its never nice to see that in any athlete.
lol watch the Joe Rogan podcast with Kavanaugh, they both said that Danis was beating up Khabib (which is understandable since Khabib was probably pretty tired)
Connor prefers striking but that doesn't mean he doesn't have grappling skills in his arsenal. Perfect example is Mark Hominick prefers striking right. But Hominick has a good guard. He executed a situp sweep to triangle transition in one of his wec fights i forget which one. But he tapped his opponent.
Here is a quote from Brendan Shaub's podcast morons, "Dillon Danis probably landed more shots than Conor Mcgregor did, and that's not throwing any shade. Dillon Danis went off" So you all can examine your camera footage all you want, I will go by eyewitness accounts.
Phizix watch this you idiot. I don’t know what that guy is talking about but Danis definitely didn’t hit Khabib. I don’t have to explain it again just watch this clip. He hit something and probably thought “yep, I just knocked Khabib out”. It was Danis who had the black eye and had a concussion afterwards lol. streamable.com/jm023
Phizix Lmao Brendan Shaub?might as well quote buzzfeed while you're at it. And the irony of it is that you're quoting a guy who also watched the footage. He wasn't even an eyewitness you dumbass. Listen to what Brian Ortega said since he actually MET Danis at a club after the brawl. The guy was quite and scared and told brian what happened. Brian also had to send some of his guys to escort him fearing he doesn't get his ass kicked again on the street. Well you can believe whatever you want to believe to make yourself feel better.
Condensation Punk those gloves are sparring and pad grapple gloves. See there's no edges to cause easy cuts. If you go to any local mma store they are always in stock.
Connor has grappling ability. Nate choked him out but he was already gassed and hurt from strikes. That's what made it easier for Nate to choke him out. DO PEOPLE FORGET that Nate has been submitted in mma. Hermes Franca arm bared Nate early in his mma career. Do people doubt Nates grappling skills just because he was submitted early in mma fights. So why doubt that Connor can't grapple? People forget i guess that Connor swept Nate in round 1 from guard with butterfly hooks. That's a sample of his grappling skill.
when nate was submitted he was a 20 year old white belt who was fighting for the WEC lightweight championship against the champion, a jiu jitsu black belt. more so, he got caught in an armbar, not a choke. when conor got submitted he was a brown belt, a champion of a division, had a huge mouth and was biggest star in mma. im assuming youre smart enough to realize the differences and why people gave conor shit for tapping.
Razy (AKA Chocolate-Thunder) i see the difference and i didn't say Nate got rnc i said he got amr locked. Did you see Connor sweep Nate in the 1st round of their 1st fight. Also he defended against Chad Mendes giotine choke. So his grappling is pretty good for mma.
Branden Vawter that was very nicely done, but it was pretty cllear nate let him sweep him and went with the transition so he could try to attack off his back. also didnt you see what happened when conor attempted the same thing he attempted with chad mendes against nate? nate blocked the escape and dominated him. conors offensive jiu jitsu is very good, but his defense is VERY suspect. Firas Zahabi, Eddie Bravo, Matt Serra and many others agree.
I cant wait for dillons next fight> he is a professional punching bag in stand up but a beast on the ground and as we all know a majority of fights go to the ground!
Dannis is right, just because conor doesn't show his jitz in the cage doesn't mean he isn't good, even Eddie bravo said condors jitz game is way under rated
who the hell says he can't grapple. This guy is a legit brown belt. What we are saying is that he cant keep up with legit black belts like the Diaz when the fight hits the ground. Much respect for Mcgregor's ground skills. Once you earn your brown belt nobody should question it.
Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done. Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain’t you. You’re better than that.
I wonder how Danis feels now watching a video of him saying how good Coner is on the ground. That's his jiu jitsu coach...scary. I think he lost his job.
Even though most people talking about McGregor including myself talk about him like they are black belts and know what they are doing, Conor needed to up his game. It's clear where his strengths are and they are not in ground fighting and submissions, not compared to his boxing. That doesn't mean he's bad at everything apart from boxing. Compared to an amateur, Conor would rinse 99.9999% of people in BJJ. Having said that, that doesn't mean he's the best either. Not by a long margin. Nate for example in his last fight has a BJJ base. You can tell that McGregor's base is boxing. He clearly got caught out being matched up by a fighter that had a more diverse skill set and I think that's why we are seeing him focus on his BJJ now he knows that his one trick one punch knockouts might not be enough to end every fight. To be fair, he's barely climbed the ladder in the UFC. His reputation has proceeded his fights and so he's been given way more opportunities than any other fighter but that's what happens when you bring MONEY to table and more of it than any other employee in the company you work for. As he carries on going up, he will continue to be tested and face adversity than will surpass his iron heart and solid mind. Words can be only mean so much and eventually, all you will see is the foundations he had before his talk got to where he is now. And that's why he's focusing on other areas, to get his rhythm back and get back into fighting the real fight rather than the bravado and pomp of glitz and glamour of his fame and fortune.
Conor used to be a killer till he fell into the power trap like everyone else who has power....abandoned what got him there and just loaded up for that one shot..waiting to land it...now only counters...used to be a monster..
4:48 conor should stop doing that he lost againt khabib doin that and in nate fight he did that same mistake and lost and in chad fight he almost got into tat gheaten doing that someone should correct him that
You do understand context right? There are rules in some jitsu matches with the gi that some other tournament does or doesn't have with the GI and same with no GI. There is a whole set of rules with this kickboxing or that kickboxing tournament. MMA has a set of rules no matter what that all MMA fights have. An regulations...he wasn't complaining about regulations. I dont believe he has a problem with there being weight classes or no PEDS, those are regulations and he never said anything about that. MMA universal rules are very basic.
Man conors a unicorn lol I'll live my life living week to week to provide for my family and of all the people I'm lifted and inspired by its mcgregor...I like the wisdom he speaks
God it’s nice to hear him just being a real person and not playing that fucking character. I know that act freaks out his opponents but I get tired of it as a fan.

conor to dillon after 229, YOU ARE FIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Continuation : “At this point in time Jake Paul was still on Disney channel” and now Jake Paul is fighting UFC stars and Dillon Dannis is still struggling to get UFC fights
This is pure "Touch Butt" in hindsight of the khabib fight. Conor should have brought a real bear in.
Oh really this is touch butt? Coming from someone who never set foot in the matt overusing that Nat diaz template yea ok
@Jake the problem was connor wanted to beat khabib at his game, instead of win at his own...
@@Peto111222 you know that’s actually true. Im a bug connor fan and i was suprised his aggressiveness and his striking didnt come out much in that fight
@@ColaKhanable Ya you cannot compare anyone in LW to Conor when it comes to striking but when it comes to being an complete fighter, no one compares to Khabib, GSP maybe a good match but still Khabib gets the job done. The way Khabib grapples is amazing and the fact you should see from the match is Conor escaped quite a few. Also, if you've seen the match and analyzed it, then it was Khabib who went out of 'father's plan' and kept raining punches on Conor and eating Conor's punches with his sheer aggressiveness.
@@ColaKhanable how you supposed to strike when you have to be ready to defend the deadliest takedown in mma at a fraction a section
Never heard of him til khabib stage dived on him
Never heard of khabib til he faught conor
op gamer 420 excellent response
Bruhhh
Never heard of conor till jake paul called him out
Conor's ground game is way better than people think and his stand up is simply the best in MMA since Anderson was in his prime.
dr.derp LOL
If he is the best , why does he loose ???
Conor is by far the best trashtalker and biggest star the ufc has ever had. No one has ever had half the fame conor has in any mma organisation.
Dillon Danis vs Chase Saldate. That would be an amazing MMA fight.
Does nobody see conor using the technique dilon is using to escape the choke at 2:26-2:29 vs mendes before he knocked him out? Awesome to see him training then using what he learned on a fight
This was in 2016 he beat mendes in 2015 come on bro
The community truthfully say that "He can talk better than He can fight"! the ultimate truth!
ya ya name one person who could do what he has done? Steam the 145 division then go up to 170 and beat diaz on the feet!! No one
You and the rest have to wake up from the dormant state. If he has ever been compared to the Greats of the world ~M. Ali, or C. Sonnen etc, only the trash talk was considered;winning by fluke, defending by running... What's great about that?
+ya ya you sir is a idiot first of all that wasn't a fluke that was a perfect counter from the left hand to chin a move he has been practicing and enough with the he ran shit he reseted to catch his breath for 8 seconds and after that he engaged for most of the fight honestly your just a Conor hater and learn your facts
Basically anyone who fights profesionally has a well-rounded skillset. Dont think people realize how good you have to be to fight at that level.
The King doesn't have to proof anything to anyone. The King has done that already, and will, once again, proof it by having those belts on both shoulders. #205
Agreed
el chapo Hahaha funny
Well hello....
Lol
guy got subbed by a local part-time security guad
Conor looks laser focused and calm as a monk
And that why he is gonna win 205#2WEIGHTCHAMP
keep doubting Conor and eventually he'll prove you wrong
hes alrdy lost 3 matches lol
+d1st4rbed and???
he's already proved everybody who doubted him wrong.
1 match in the UFC that he got revenge on the other 2 were like when he was 18 years old so stfu
RichChiTown so your saying fighting smartly is not getting revenge?
Never heard anyone say he can't box or can't kick but yes the ground game is suspect he did stop take down attempts very well
The whole boxing community said he would get destroyed by amateur boxers. An i wouldn't call his ground game suspect. People don't give diaz enough respect on how good at jitsu he is. He's a gracie black belt and might even have some degrees and that's no fucking joke. Connor is i think a brown belt. That's about 4-6 years of skill and experience nate had on him.
lets be honest nates bjj in the gi isnt very good, im just gonna leave it at that
I miss Conor, I hope he's not wasting his life with booze and cocaine.
Don't worry brother, he is twitter warrior now 👍
@@mctapper5988 I don't twitter so I'm not uptodate, I think he's lost his fight vs kabib only cos alcohol and drugs don't go well with performance. He was getting drunk at the press conference, far from the Conor we saw in 2015.
Money can change everything. Even the person you used to know before, sadly.
@@DSined-df1up Not always, but going from unemployement to having over 150000000 in three years can be indeed tricky. I don't judge, I just want him back.
@@cristianoattanasi6028 I dont think he will ever come back like that to be honest, he did his thing, robbed UFC, now he s enjoying the good life. Dont get me wrong I would do the same if I was him but hey, lets be happy that we witnessed something great :)
Oooops dannisa got whooped. Also, Connor really showed us how good he is on the ground as you said 😂
here we go again with the extremists commenting on videos
Dillon had Khabib running scared lmao
Whats your grappling background?
A GOOD grappler getting beat on the ground by a world class grappler.............what a surprise.
Dannisa🤣🤣🤣
Whole team took an L - 06_2018
McGregor is counting his money......with tears of a poor soul
Sum Solution all his loser fans have to fall back on. HIS money 😂
Khabib 26 - 0 Nobody cares
Khabib 27 - 0 World Wide Fame
Conor mad him famous....
@uir it's the sheep mentality. it's bandwagoning is rampant in all sports.
How? He's traveling the US on his Whiskey tour, stores are selling out if it as well, is invited to a Dallas Cowboys game as a special guest to Jerry Jones, Made a few million off one fight to Khabib, still is counting the $100 million he made fighting Floyd.... Shit if that's an L for 2018 sign me up!!!!!!
Dillon needs to come to the ufc
Giraffe Juice Yeah right, all he'd need to do is what Demian Maia did, learn some distance management on the feet then get that takedown and submit over and over. The only thing is he'd be smart to use his great BJJ instead of trying to turn into a striker like some do
you saw that happen with jorge gurgel. dude at the time probably had the best jiu jitsu in all of mma but tried to bang with guys and got beat up a lot. shame what could have been.
Zizou Zinedine let him learn in Bellator
Giraffe Juice Dillion sucks ass? Do you even know who he is?
Matthew DeMello yes hes a 22 year old snake oil con artist who is all talk. Little kid
John Kavanagh is a technician. He just tinks tinks tinks all the time.
Came here from dillons insta story lol
Ive come around to Conor. You gotta respect his training. Dude goes HARD. Learning always. That said. 209 all day. But Conor gets mad props .
Crazy to think Dillon is now 29 and has only had 2 mma fights since this video. Talk about wasted potential, don't like him but its never nice to see that in any athlete.
Waiting for the day Dillion masters his craft on striking. It’s game over from their
nice work!
Conor is getting good at staying on his feet. That first Diaz fight was a good wake-up call for him.
Conor: "I love Jui Jitsu!"
Khabib: "This is nummer one Bullshit!"
Lol Khabib dont like jiu jitsu so yeah.....
let's wrestle, let's wrestle, let's wrestle! - Conor McGregor to Khabib during the first press conference! Absolutely got his ass kicked so hard!
lol Danis got rocked
loool u must be dumb. rewatch it
lol watch the Joe Rogan podcast with Kavanaugh, they both said that Danis was beating up Khabib (which is understandable since Khabib was probably pretty tired)
@@phizix7093 Khabib should have not been in the crowd like an ass wipe
What's up with this camera angle at 1:45
he's a beast, a true tap master.
Connor prefers striking but that doesn't mean he doesn't have grappling skills in his arsenal. Perfect example is Mark Hominick prefers striking right. But Hominick has a good guard. He executed a situp sweep to triangle transition in one of his wec fights i forget which one. But he tapped his opponent.
Dillon Danis got eagle'd LOLOLL
From all reports of people that were there, after Khabib jumped down he was getting the crap kicked out of him.
Suuure that's why Dillon came out with a black eye and a concussion while Khabib came out unscathed. Stop making up bullshit.
Here is a quote from Brendan Shaub's podcast morons, "Dillon Danis probably landed more shots than Conor Mcgregor did, and that's not throwing any shade. Dillon Danis went off" So you all can examine your camera footage all you want, I will go by eyewitness accounts.
Phizix watch this you idiot. I don’t know what that guy is talking about but Danis definitely didn’t hit Khabib. I don’t have to explain it again just watch this clip. He hit something and probably thought “yep, I just knocked Khabib out”. It was Danis who had the black eye and had a concussion afterwards lol. streamable.com/jm023
Phizix Lmao Brendan Shaub?might as well quote buzzfeed while you're at it. And the irony of it is that you're quoting a guy who also watched the footage. He wasn't even an eyewitness you dumbass. Listen to what Brian Ortega said since he actually MET Danis at a club after the brawl. The guy was quite and scared and told brian what happened. Brian also had to send some of his guys to escort him fearing he doesn't get his ass kicked again on the street. Well you can believe whatever you want to believe to make yourself feel better.
great video guys!
Also khabib did a great video too
That boy is an animal
What are those specific gloves McGregor is using?
Those are mma gloved with extrs padding (probably 10 oz) some call them mma hybrid gloves
Condensation Punk those gloves are sparring and pad grapple gloves. See there's no edges to cause easy cuts. If you go to any local mma store they are always in stock.
Samoayling thank you :)
Denboy999 Boy999 thank you ;)
i am laughing hard mate.....dillon''BETTER VERSION OF KHABIB''danis....hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Dillon is top class.

Slave Owner Stephen Thompson Lmao talk about Conor's nuthuggers that spam his lines 24/7, now go watch Dora the explorer
LOL
Slave Owner Stephen Thompson Nice, try something new
Konner fooked up when he sent his location!!
Yeah we seen the show tonight lol khabib show us the show lol
😂 😂
Danis can teach you how to get concussed from the wind.
Connor has grappling ability. Nate choked him out but he was already gassed and hurt from strikes. That's what made it easier for Nate to choke him out. DO PEOPLE FORGET that Nate has been submitted in mma. Hermes Franca arm bared Nate early in his mma career. Do people doubt Nates grappling skills just because he was submitted early in mma fights. So why doubt that Connor can't grapple? People forget i guess that Connor swept Nate in round 1 from guard with butterfly hooks. That's a sample of his grappling skill.
when nate was submitted he was a 20 year old white belt who was fighting for the WEC lightweight championship against the champion, a jiu jitsu black belt. more so, he got caught in an armbar, not a choke.
when conor got submitted he was a brown belt, a champion of a division, had a huge mouth and was biggest star in mma.
im assuming youre smart enough to realize the differences and why people gave conor shit for tapping.
Razy (AKA Chocolate-Thunder) i see the difference and i didn't say Nate got rnc i said he got amr locked. Did you see Connor sweep Nate in the 1st round of their 1st fight. Also he defended against Chad Mendes giotine choke. So his grappling is pretty good for mma.
+Razy (AKA Chocolate-Thunder) lol Nate was not a fucking white belt when he got choked out there. He had tons of BJJ experience up to that point.
danglesnipecelly13 he was at most a blue belt, this was before TUF and in TUF he was a blue belt.
Branden Vawter that was very nicely done, but it was pretty cllear nate let him sweep him and went with the transition so he could try to attack off his back.
also didnt you see what happened when conor attempted the same thing he attempted with chad mendes against nate? nate blocked the escape and dominated him.
conors offensive jiu jitsu is very good, but his defense is VERY suspect. Firas Zahabi, Eddie Bravo, Matt Serra and many others agree.
I cant wait for dillons next fight> he is a professional punching bag in stand up but a beast on the ground and as we all know a majority of fights go to the ground!
He proved how good he is on the ground 😂😂😂
Dannis is right, just because conor doesn't show his jitz in the cage doesn't mean he isn't good, even Eddie bravo said condors jitz game is way under rated
This shit is five years old.
who the hell says he can't grapple. This guy is a legit brown belt. What we are saying is that he cant keep up with legit black belts like the Diaz when the fight hits the ground. Much respect for Mcgregor's ground skills. Once you earn your brown belt nobody should question it.
see that moment they had at the end there . . . . beautiful.😂
This guy
This girl... lol
This is cool, when is Danis gona do mma?
Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done. Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain’t you. You’re better than that.
nice words bro
pity you stole it from Rocky IV
th-cam.com/video/D_Vg4uyYwEk/w-d-xo.html
passing it off as your own? sad, unoriginal bastard
Nice one Conor interview about your training partner and you talk about how great you are.
Doubt it was all about Dillion tgats just what the video title ended up being after filming that footage
I just come here to laugh at him...
😂 😂 😂 Me too, he sounds stupid now
he is still a milionair, what are you guys? bunch of whiney keyboard warriors...
bro, whatever makes you asleep at night hahahha doesn't mather even if it's just in your head (or your buthole lol)
@bmcgmusic I think the only one buthurt is you rofl 🤣 😂 keep crying bitch but ur "white" boy has submitted
Hahaa
I wonder how Danis feels now watching a video of him saying how good Coner is on the ground. That's his jiu jitsu coach...scary. I think he lost his job.
Did Conor fart at 4:52 ?
ya man, thats why he's a brown belt
No its mat
+patdel12 JAJAAJJAJAJAJAJAA
its the mat
either that or the mat fro the roll ahha
Even though most people talking about McGregor including myself talk about him like they are black belts and know what they are doing, Conor needed to up his game. It's clear where his strengths are and they are not in ground fighting and submissions, not compared to his boxing. That doesn't mean he's bad at everything apart from boxing. Compared to an amateur, Conor would rinse 99.9999% of people in BJJ. Having said that, that doesn't mean he's the best either. Not by a long margin. Nate for example in his last fight has a BJJ base. You can tell that McGregor's base is boxing. He clearly got caught out being matched up by a fighter that had a more diverse skill set and I think that's why we are seeing him focus on his BJJ now he knows that his one trick one punch knockouts might not be enough to end every fight.
To be fair, he's barely climbed the ladder in the UFC. His reputation has proceeded his fights and so he's been given way more opportunities than any other fighter but that's what happens when you bring MONEY to table and more of it than any other employee in the company you work for. As he carries on going up, he will continue to be tested and face adversity than will surpass his iron heart and solid mind. Words can be only mean so much and eventually, all you will see is the foundations he had before his talk got to where he is now. And that's why he's focusing on other areas, to get his rhythm back and get back into fighting the real fight rather than the bravado and pomp of glitz and glamour of his fame and fortune.
Hey how’d you guys like that Khabib fight? Lmao and still! Bahahahaha
Conor used to be a killer till he fell into the power trap like everyone else who has power....abandoned what got him there and just loaded up for that one shot..waiting to land it...now only counters...used to be a monster..
Well it just proved he's not so good on the ground. KHABIB is the Champ!! Oh and Connor cheated and still lost! Russia 🇷🇺 all the way!!
This is a side of Mcgregor that I can learn to like. This is the grind behind the trash talk. I respect that.
ground game still weak af tho
how the fuck would you know?
With all the money and options he has you’d think he would pick someone fucking unreal..
.
Him and his boyfriend are so embarrassing
These two need their own reality show on MTV.
it took mendes 2 seconds to pass his guard once he got him down in the first round lmao
Pathetic
sammy2629 yea right you cant ground and pound from crosside and sumbit your oppent
actually conor was mostly in full guard
and at the end of the 2nd, Mendes attempted to pass guard.. Conor got up
Duffy passed her guard and choked his ass mendes took his ass down with ease even siver someone who Dosent even wrestle took him down lmao
+Benson “I'm a vegan” Henderson and? Go on?
4:48 conor should stop doing that he lost againt khabib doin that and in nate fight he did that same mistake and lost and in chad fight he almost got into tat gheaten doing that someone should correct him that
"I don't need rules" - He know's MMA has a fuckload of rules and regulations right?
You do understand context right? There are rules in some jitsu matches with the gi that some other tournament does or doesn't have with the GI and same with no GI. There is a whole set of rules with this kickboxing or that kickboxing tournament. MMA has a set of rules no matter what that all MMA fights have. An regulations...he wasn't complaining about regulations. I dont believe he has a problem with there being weight classes or no PEDS, those are regulations and he never said anything about that. MMA universal rules are very basic.
Wade Hamilton The meaning of the comment went way over your head.
it has the least rules in combat sport.
Wade Hamilton none pf ghem rules are helping him tho. Imagine if he could kick Diaz to the head while he was on the ground in a last figght. Quick ko.
petr brucek also fucking dangerous 😂
Great Video.
Khabib 27-0.
Man conors a unicorn lol I'll live my life living week to week to provide for my family and of all the people I'm lifted and inspired by its mcgregor...I like the wisdom he speaks
Mac Gragoor?! Kkkkk 👎🏼🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 bjj porra
God it’s nice to hear him just being a real person and not playing that fucking character. I know that act freaks out his opponents but I get tired of it as a fan.
