TS forgot the most important reason...
Proper hand wraps
This low single was my biggest worry going into this fight. Conors fundamentals here were decent... But his hips weren't heavy enough. Heavier hips and he might have been able to stuff this. I hope he brings in a top level wrestler to his camp next time.
There's so many reasons why Conor would beat Khabib in a rematch:
1) Conor wasn't at his best, but that was the best Khabib you're ever going to see. Your not going to see a better version of Khabib than that, however who knows what could happen if a better Conor shows up in the rematch.
2) I don't think Conor was motivated efficiently for this fight. Drinking whiskey not taking the fight seriously. However now he has his motivation, he's now driven again motivated again.
3) Conors tactics was wrong, by the words of his own coach, they worked too much on defense and little on offence.
4) Conors own coach himself said the following: "ABSOLUTELY CONOR SUFFERED FROM RING RUST". Said it on the Joe rogan show, check it out of you don't believe me. He said it. In the rematch there would be no ring rust.
5) Conor WANTS the rematch more than anything. Khabib doesn't seem to want it though.....I wonder why.
6) Conor knows now what to do when Khabib takes him to the ground or how to stop the takedowns (see round 3).

Clearly compromised. Look at how slow he is. Was 10x as fast against Chad.
Maybe because his WEIGHT, don't you think?Clearly compromised. Look at how slow he is. Was 10x as fast against Chad.

Even if he did that… there is no way to make up a fat decade or more that he lacks in judo wrestling and Sambo experienceTime to retire and juice and train for 2-3 years and then come back.

His cardio and strength did look improved. I'd say its his lack of skill and heart that cost him again.If he did, he needs to fire his juice guy, his cardio or strength didn't look improved at all.
