News Conor McGregor just received his BJJ-blackbelt

[Mr. Super Necessary]

He's literally never subbed anyone though lol.

 

[Mr. Super Necessary]

In MMA ..yes

But who knows what happens in that gym in ireland...

Hes trained with other black belts for awhile..

I said he doesn't deserve it for the record..

My point was about the black belt itself ..not Conor , all im saying is the Black Belt is not a sign your a killer ...it has more to it then that

 

[rstringer]

Who gave him? We need to check that one.

 

[StonedLemur]

Had to go back over a decade...nice find.
Still doesn't warrant a black belt lol.

 

[Elvis.]

Yeah , but both of those guys could tap 99% of the Bjj black belts walking the face of the earth

 

[Paolo Delutis]

Cool ... I guess i was wrong about the no subs

 

[surgeyou1]

Yeah , but both of those guys could tap 99% of the Bjj black belts walking the face of the earth

Especially after being gassed and punched in the face lol.

If Conor was still getting submitted fresh like he used to early, then you can say he's not a true black belt.

 

[NoSmilez]

Your last sentence is my point, and I was using a bit of hyperbole lol.

Mcgregor is a black belt but he isn't a competition level grappler. I can see him being competitive with a regular black belt at the gym or even most black belts that compete in MMA. Not every black belt is going to be Jacare or Maia.

 

[Bowel-forged Stool]

Nah me and you have always been buds, even when most people were giving me shit when I first got here.
Thats my loyalty towards you sir.

We all good cuz!

 

[TITS]

Had to go back over a decade...nice find.

He was probably a pink or blue belt back then though.

 

[Kal-El]

Can't stand Conor, but voted yes

 

[Jackonfire]

 

[Neck&Neck]

I just checked and he’s got one submission win from Cage warriors
Conor is legit

 

[Flower2dPeople]

Nahh dude this guy doesn't display even blue belt level skills on some stuff like giving up his back, laying flat on his back etc. I guess he put in the time for it, doesn't mean he has the skill set you'd expect for a professional athlete that trains it all the time. He may have the knowledge or teaching ability, but I see why people are crapping on him.

He did xguard swept Nate in the 1st rd of the 1st fight.

 

[Bushwhacker B]

This is like if you want an actor to give the commencement speech so you draw up an honorary doctorate

Or if your fighter hasn't been in the news for a couple days and is having withdrawals, let's bump him up a belt

 

[Iroh]

He's never subbed anyone in his career that I know of sir.

You know, people can get black belts without even ever training MMA, let alone fight in MMA, let alone have a whole MMA career... They are two very separate things.

 

[tasticles]

He did xguard swept Nate in the 1st rd of the 1st fight.

I forgot that. Perhaps It goes down the drain when he gasses out.

Like most blackbelts. Punch them enough and tire them out and they will give you your neck.

Mike Tyson school of BJJ.

Can't wait to see Conor competing in tournaments...
