McGregor vs prime Sakuraba at 170

[moreorless87]

Go to your safe space then you butthurt SJW. Fighters themselves have admitted that fixed fights happened in Pride, and much like guys who failed 1 test are accused of juicing their entire careers, Pride FC gets the same treatment. Since the former is allowed, your precious PRIDEE isn't exempt from it either.

Claims of fixed fights have happened in many orgs(including the UFC), that doesn't give you the right to claim every fight in those orgs was fixed and the rules of the forum preclude fighter bashing with you have to assume would include claiming fighters threw matches for money.

No sure what the hell that has to do with "SJW", it has to do with your libelling fighters that you'd think fans respected plus of course opening the forum itself up to legal action, hence why such claims are against the rules.

I have no opinion on who would win, but Sakuraba is very overrated. A lot of his signature wins are really sketchy.

Please provide a list of examples with its proper evidence.

 

[Big Tuppy Hole]

Saku was able to take down Cro Cop, I thi k he may get Conner down

 

[I_IZ_BACK]

Sakuraba by submission: armbar or kneebar, you chose he delivers

Sakuraba by submission: armbar or kneebar, you chose he delivers

Conor tapping due to a kneebar would be very satisfying to look at

 

[StraightleftKO]

Most conor fans are filthy casuals and they have no idea who sakuraba is

Sakurbaba is Japense pro wrestler.

A bunch of retards, nut-huggers, and trolls on Sherdog but prime Sakuraba had a great chin. He had several TKO losses (via knees and corner stoppage) and one clean KO loss (to a roided up Wanderlei). But all of those were to much larger and powerful men than Conor.

Conor's left hand likely doesn't put Saku down. But when Saku grabs Conor, he will get the submission.

this is it.
i actually dont nostalgically consider Saku a better fighter than Conor - he had glaring holes in his game, but he is tailormade to beat Conor.
20lbs on him, iron chin and a ground game that would make Conor tap quickly.

 

[JkMMA]

Conor quick taps . Just look at his lost against Diaz 1 and Duffy . He quick taps. Sakuraba put him in any submission hold for 0.1 second, he'll tap right away without trying to escape .

 

[MCS]

It's similar to the Khabib fight. If Saku can't get a TD, he's getting Nino'd, while if he can...

 

[FUTUI7E]

Saku via sub

 

[The Best JG]

Sakuraba submits him easily. Dude has a granite chin and will throw takedowns, sweeps, and passes at conor that hes literally never seen before

 

[DanaWhitesButler]

Who da fook is that guy?

 

[JustOnce]

Who takes this?
Prime Sakuraba had a great fighting IQ and was excellent at closing the gap.

Saku

 

[Killme]

Saku beat Rampage after being slammed to the mat 134 times

 

[FranOlivetto]

Conor's kryptonite is wrestling (but fighters with insame amount of wrestling maybe like Khabib who knows) and Saku's kryptonite is fighters with good striking. Conor's precision, timing, accuracy and power would be a hard night for the korean boy.

As a Conor fan i still pick Saku to win by armbar

 

[Bartinho]

No.

 

[Cold Front]

Sakuraba fucks him up.

 

[Bartinho]

BTW. Conor has never beaten a WW.

 

[chubbman]

saku grapplefucks him

 

[DanaWhitesButler]

And your evidence is? He f** a much bigger rampage as well. Rampage never mentioned anything about him getting paid to lose and you know he has a big mouth, we would know by know if this were facts.

Rampage was new and didn't know how to fight MMA. He looked pathetic in that fight.
