9 Things To Expect From Conor McGregor's UFC Return
6. The Touch Of Death
In a conversation on the Joe Rogan Experience, world-renowned, living-legendary-level coach Firas Zahabi neatly regarded Conor Mac's left hand as the touch of death and if I'm honest, it doesn't take a mixed martial arts master to see that. Time and time again we have witnessed some of the most durable fighters fall prey to the picture perfect left straight. Yes, Conor has fantastic reach and fast-twitch strength, but my lord when that punch lands people don't half get sleepy.
It sits top shelf right next to a Francis Ngannou's uppercut and Saitama's “Serious Punch” for strategy shattering effect. McGregor fans will happily remember the crashing cage side left that put out Chad Mendes banking him an interim belt, the short work it made of Jose Aldo to bring forth his first undisputed taste of UFC gold, as well as the countless other butts which met canvas after that knuckle sandwich.
