I disagree. Jorge beat the brakes off Nate. Literally won every second of that fight, it wasn't competitive. And even if you want to dismiss the first fight with Nate that Conor had as Conor being a "distracted fool" (and that's certainly possible that he was), no way in hell was that true for the second fight with Nate. And Conor BARELY squeaked that out. Nate had a lot of moments in that fight, could have honestly won it. Conor was out for blood, dying to avenge his loss, and he managed to eek out a majority decision where he was gassed and running away in the later rounds. And that was "dark eyed, focused" Conor for sure.
Here's the thing: Conor was a wrecking machine at 145. At LW and now WW, his power is way less proven. Alvarez he had to knock down 3 times. That was a brilliant display of precision, but Eddie was tailor made for Conor. And now he KO'd a shell of Cerrone who was coming off a life altering beating by Tony and a KO by Justin. Cowboy is washed, and this fight was set up to make Conor look good.
Am I saying Conor can't beat Masvidal? Absolutely not. Conor could win for sure. But to assert that if he's focused he'll just walk through him....no way.
