Maybe he remembered what happened when he tried to take down Nate in their first fight.
Oh yeah, how could I forget that.
Is that the one where Diaz lit him up, and Conor was almost gonna get knocked out for the first time, so he panicked and suddenly became a wrestler?
I think the term Conor uses is “Panic Wrestler”
So he then became a panic wrestler, and attempted an awful double leg take down to which Diaz sprawled and stuffed with ease. I think Diaz used his hips to stuff it, the hips Conor said he was going to crush.
Conor then got mounted, Diaz whacked him, this caused Conor, who is so experienced in BJJ, a brown belt I might add, to turn and gave his back. A white belt knows not to do this, so not sure how a brown belt doesn’t. Then again how does someone who has won 2 titles not know what a calf kick is?
Anyway after turning and giving his back (a no no in BJJ, if you went he to class he would know) did Diaz whack him again to expose the neck, and sink a clean RNC to force him to tap and give him the name “McTapper”?
I think I remember that one, me only being a casual Conor fan, I only remember Conors highlight reel.
