Now here is someone trying to run away from Tony
I'm a boxing guy. been boxing for over 10 years. I never really thought Nate's boxing was that Impressive. Certainly nowhere near Nicks. It seemed like he was always In his shadow In that sense. It wasn't until the Michael johnson fight that I was like damn, his hands look good. So, yeah..based on what I've seen, he definitely Improved a great deal at least In the boxing department relative to his last LW run. Credit where It's due. Him and Nick are far closer In their boxing at this point, with slightly different styles. Fighters Improve and like I've said a million times, only the most recent fights will paint the most accurate picture of where a fighter currently stands.Nate wasn't touted as a striking god until he beat Conor. Benson Henderson tagged the LIVING SHIT out of Nate on the feet from the moment the bell rang. Nate has always been hittable as fuck. Both Tony and Nate rely a lot on their chin. Nate does not have superior defense to Tony and his foot work is pure dogshit.
Fair point. That was stupid of me.I'm a boxing guy. been boxing for over 10 years. I never really thought Nate's boxing was that Impressive. Certainly nowhere near Nicks.

Kevin Lee was KO'd by a jiu jitsu guy less than 2 years ago. Now he's one of the best fighters In the world and probably a future champ. How relevant Is that KO loss now? you know what I mean? Bringing up fights from 5 years ago Is something people seem to love to do, but It's just poor analysis and no better than MMA math as far as I'm concerned.
i believe it was Italian.
Well yeah, when you throw baby punches for 5 rounds...Nate Diaz is known for having elite cardio himself.
In the 10th, in his first pro fight, against Floyd. How does that not improve his cardio ffs.
Your boy gassed way before the 10th, he just got finished in the 10th.
The point is he has Cardio issues that he hasn't found a way around yet.
Also, you better believe Tony will be pushing him way harder than Floyd was early in the fight.
Do Conor Haters and Diaz fans realise Diaz ran exactly like Conor did in the MJ fight?
Like seriously retards just fuck off.
None of those guys can box. They're MMA strikers. Conor can actually box. Big difference.Tony beat up strikers like Barboza, RDA and Vannata etc on their feet. All when to Hospital with multiple cuts to stitch up after getting fucked up standing with Ferg. Tony would fuck up Conman standing let alone if it went to ground. Conman literally has nothing for Tony.
Only fools point to MJ fight 6 years ago where Tony had a broken arm 2 rounds and MJ still couldnt do shit or finish a man with a broken arm. Conman maybe can break Tony's arm? Then win by decision. Not very high odds of that tho.

Lol Nate styled on Johnson for the last two rounds for the most part, landing one-two combinations over and over, pointing at Johnson and saying "that hurt you huh?" and laughing. Slapping him. I don't think it's the same thing really as Conor in the second fight but I guess I could be wrong.
Yeah, on the flip side I don't believe Tony can take the shots Nate did for 2 rounds either.lol I rewatched the Diaz 2 fight the other night. If Conor gasses like that against Tony, he will get absolutely brutalized.
you are wrong running to reset is the same goddamn thing fuckhead
