Possibly....but Dustin has ko power too.  He catches connor like he did gaethje....u will have same result.

Conor is a much better defensive striker than Gaethje is, though. Obviously, it's MMA so anything can happen but it's hard to pick against Conor in that fight unless Dustin takes it to the mat.

Other than the Khabib fight when have we ever seen Conor get hit with big power shots? Poirier has some power for sure but he only has 3 KO's in his last 10 bouts. And his last 3 fights he has been hit by 358 significant strikes so who knows how his chin will hold up. Not to mention his last two bouts against explosive southpaws he has been sent into a different dimension in the 1st round.

Gathje has the Nate Diaz style of blocking punches with his head.

Manny smokes Connor in a far more vicious fashion than Floyd imo

 

Toss up fight between he and Dustin

khabib knocked down conor more than floyd did lol (from punches, not talking about TDs)

i still think conor could box w/ that floyd if he had the conditioning to do so.
