Remember when Conor made it look like he was going to massacre Nate...

When any Conor fight starts he comes in with the intention to KO. Right from the get go, swing hammers. But when that doesn't get the job done it's huffing and puffing, then folds. That's what gets him fans, either he stops the guy or there's some back and forth and he gets stopped.

In their first meeting but then panic wrestled and got choked. That wasn’t a big issue, the issue was he tapped out quickly after all that smack talk and that same night Holm a girl fighter, she didn’t tap and went to sleep instead! Yet, Conor is the guy who brings seats more than anyone! I’m trying to understand here, why?

I always found Conor's trash talk to be such hyperbole, not even close to realistic, even when he wins. But it's so weird that so many buy into it, even his haters. Dude it's just nonsense to sell tickets and it works. How dumb do you have to be to take that seriously?

Diaz barely clinched in the first fight. Conor gassed at range which is supposed to be his Forte. He didn't change anything in the rematch
Which is why he gassed again except this time he literally ran away mtiple times. The only reason it worked was bc Nate chose to clown him for it instead of pursuing

You know nothing about fighting. People who can watch a fight and deny what they see have mental problems. Conor didn't gas the second fight like he did the first. That's the point. He dropped Nate 2 or 3 times. Nothing in your stupid little world will change the fact Conor beat Nate, a much larger fighter, in the second fight.

It kind of is now because it has to be. But Conor marked out on his own gimmick big time at the beginning.

Now that he’s been humiliated a couple of times he’s started to fall back on the boring old “I made more money so I’m the real winner in the way that counts.”

He was caught. Why get choked out?

Conor's tank was completely empty due to a staph infection

Haven't heard the one before. Gotta add that to "Little Connie's Big Book of Excuses" I thought his excuse for the Diaz fight was "he was tree times the size of me!"

Holm was winning on the cards and a minute away from winning the fight, of course you will try to hold on rather than tap in those circumstances.

Conor's tank was completely empty due to a staph infection and there was another 17 minutes left in that fight. Quitting in that scenario to minimize damage taken, regroup and plan on winning the rematch is the logical thing to do.

Great game plan. Even though the records don't show it Nate beat the piss out of him again. He had Conor running around the cage like an Irish version of Kalib Starnes.

I don't think it's a defence if you don't defend the belt. I get where you are coming from though.

Dude, it’s an ATTEMPTED defence of her belt. Conor never even attempted to defend. He was stripped for that very reason. And no amount of mental gymnastics is ever going to conivince anybody with common sense otherwise. This is lame.

Cuz he was done from the punches and being exhausted and went for takedown so just he won't get KO'ed.

Listen, Connor tapped because he didn't want to go unconsciou. Could've been 15 seconds left on the fight, same result matey
 
I bet the Conor trolls all retired off the royalties they get from threads like this

Conor tapped out so quickly that he first escaped a deep guillotine before the RNC.
