Please think before answering because Barb can do his kicks and possibly finish Conor before the Irishman closes the distance, what do you think?
 
Conor imo. Barboza is chiny and gets hit a lot.

People think Conor is a bum nowadays but he is still a killa.
 
would be an epic fight. one of the best matchups at LW for sure.
 
Wouldn't be an easy fight for either of them. Good style match-up. Conor ain't fightin Barboza anytime soon though.
 
Barboza wins. Conor taps after not being able to run from the fight anymore. Sick body shots till Conor can't breathe.
 
Interesting match-up. Two of the best pure strikers at LW.
 
Obviously Edson has more than 7 minutes of gas
 
Conor
He isn't gonna sit on the outside like Hooker

Against a pure striker people forget how aggressive Conor can be, he'll take one to give one
He's gonna cut him off
Put him against the cage in boxing range and tee off on Edson
Edson is all kicks
Can't bust a grape with his hands

I'm not a Conor fan by any means but jeez please do not reduce him to an average contender. He'll beat Barboza without any issues.
 
I don't know, Barboza has the most trouble with guys that will pressure him and won't give him space, Conor also likes to fight with a lot of space. I could see either KOing the other. It seems like they would fight each other where each other are strongest.
 
Barboza gasses him even faster than usual with body kicks and knocks out an exhausted McGregor as he stumbles around like a drunk with his hands down like every other time Conor does when he gasses.

Conor's confidence is way too shot at this point.
 
Zero TD threat and Boza can let the kicks fly?

F the leprechaun's "movement".

I'm a huge Khabib fan but I think Conor would win easily, Edson's chin can't take much punishment, probably 1st rd ko for Conor.
 
Conor is way better than any of the other guys Barboza has fought. We all know Barbozas weakness in the standup is usually because of his chin. His defense isnt the best so thats Conors best chance. Anyways back to reality, Conor would never agree to that fight, too risky and not much to gain.
 
Barboza would rekt him at any point in both their careers. Conor would never accept the fight though
 
Barboza cant take a shot

Likely from years of high level competition in MT and MmA
Conor is good enough to finish him imo.
