Media Conor looks huge lately - It could grant him some lethal power at the upper weights

[witt1021]

His reach and height don’t go up with his weight.

 

[LooyStLouis]

HGH, Beers, Whiskey, Hormones, Cocaine, this guy is going to die next time he fights.

I think Conor is better off at LW and working on cardio and wrestling. He relies on speed and with all that extra mass he might not be that fast and it likely will hurt his already below average cardio.

 

[Reduvia]

Damn those arms

 

[Prince Nephilim]

Big Conzy had and still has some tough hills to climb. Good on the lad for stepping back up. I hope he comes back sauced to the tits and ready for WAR!

Great point. The first Mr. Olympia, Larry Scott, was 5'6-7 and was around 200 lbs (and probably more like 190, we have known for years that they add weight and height in BB and pro-rasslin)

I forgot Larry was that small. Still a legend though and wasn't just a walking lab experiment. There should almost be a rule that a Mr O has to be at least 5 9 or better. They are starting to get shorter and shorter again. That's one of many reasons Ronnie was and will always be the king.

Stuck in the mud bodybuilder Conor will gas out after only 3 minutes instead of after 1 round.

He looked pretty tired just from punching that bag, nevermind someone that's trying to knock him out.

 

[do a moniker]

Being a Conor fan should be a diagnosable disorder at this point. The fact that he even posted that video in a bragging way is so sad. It’s even sadder to watch thousands of simps respond on social media with “the king is back!”

 

[StonedLemur]

He’s huffing and puffing after hitting that bag for 30 seconds

Lmao, I just said something similar.
Not to mention he's not even moving with a person ffs.

Size does not equal power

 

[Lucas1980]

Why has it changed... shouldn't a bigger muscle freak > smaller muscler freak, with all else equal?

Or are they clamping down on PED users?

They're gonna have to start clamping down. These dudes and chicks have been dropping like flies over the last year. Lots of its because of the PED abuse and the mandatory Jab but that's a whole another discussion. But it'll never change as the fans want freaks of chemical nature on stage. The days of Labrada Sr and Francs Beneffato are over.

 

[StonedLemur]

Punching power doesn’t come from how big your muscles are bro. Researchers are still trying to figure it out but the theory is that it has more to do with the bone and muscle structure, and the anatomy of how the tendons work with the muscles. Depending on your muscles and where the tendon sits you’re able to generate more centrifugal force. That’s why skinny guys with small muscles like Tommy Hearns could hit like a truck.

Hearns was a bad mothafucka man.
Until my homeboy Hagler wipes the floor with him that is.

 

[StonedLemur]

Size does not equal power

Nope.
Fedor said if he seen that the guy he was fighting was too big in the shoulders he knew he'd beat em.
Said it made them slower, and Im inclined to believe the man.

 

[Ares Black]

Why would he release that footage? He looks terrible.

 

[Herbanii]

He easily looks like someone who walks around 200ibs. Imo I would love to see him fight Israel Adesanya. I think that will be an interesting fight stylistically as they are well matched up against each other.. They have alot of similarities as they both love to telegraph their shoots all tho Adesanya is the more technical striker Conor is the better head-hunter. A 210 ibs Conor McGregor vs Izzy I would watch that fight..

This means he will gas within first round.

 

[MMonk]

Bloated midget, tapped to nate diaz.

Diaz has like 10 subs in the UFC, no shame in that

 

[StonedLemur]

Why would he release that footage? He looks terrible.

Because he wants everyone to see how big and scary he is now........lol

 

[C0NCH3TO]

Why are you pencil necks obsessed with Coner’s size? Mma has nothing to do with muscles.

When you workout and wear your 12 year old nephew’s clothes of course you will look swole. He’s still a small man, SMALLER than most welters on the roster.

 

[Tyler Durden]

You want Conor McGregor to fight a stand up fight with Izzy because Conor lifts weights now?
Are you drunk??

 

[Craig Hogg]

His power didn't even translate to 155 haha.
He does look big in pictures but he will be making sure he has a pump, the lighting is good and using favourable angles etc.
Picture him next to Usman and he'd look tiny.
