I just go in and create their reaction.

I don't wait for their reaction and react off that, I actually give them their reaction. I create my movement to give them the reaction that I want them to take.

Someone actually had a very good breakdown with Gifs on here showing how Conor manipulates his opponents and baits them into shots.
 
so Big John's knee to Aldo's head was actually Conor making Big React exactly how he wanted him to act.

fucking crazy
 
He definitely had a lot of movement in the 4th and 5th round of Diaz vs McGregor II. A whole lot a movement....like back to your opponent type of movement.

And he won the 4th and was about to win the fifth if it wasn't for that TD in the last 5 secs
 
It worked.

And that's sad considering most fighters get trashed here on sherdog for doing that very thing. Even the crowd was booing. They knew what was up.

Without turning his back and having such "great movement" he probably would've lost the 4th, and that's reaching thinking he would've won that 5th round without that takedown. He was doing more of the same.

So sad that unless both fighters are legit running at each other the whole time they are considered cowards. Then later when that fighter that always comes forward gets early dementia you read about it, shrug and go back to eating your chips. Fighters like Diaz that just come forward taking shots the whole time are considered "badass" by simpletons. So just because he wants to weaken his chin by taking shots and not use any defensive skills I am supposed to be impressed? Conor backing up and landing pin point shots will always be a million times more impressive to me.

There was another thread that was posted a while ago (maybe 6 months) that was link to a breakdown from a boxing and karate coach that said he favors Conor 60-40% over Floyd - anyone have (cant find it)?. He gave some great insights that boxers just dont understand, as he is experts in the two crafts and talked about how Conor's unique traps, movement and also how Conor is the only fighter, other than Hagler, that keeps his eyes open when he gets hit/returns is going to give Floyd problems.
 
News flash. Conor didn't win the rematch with Nate, he was awarded the win.
