AKIQPilot Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Smith is spot on about Cerrone. Donald should have known that McGregor was going to immediately jump on him trying for an early KO. Donald is a notoriously slow starter. You cant start slow with Conor. Donald put is hand out to touch gloves at the opening bell. This is a classic mistake when fighting McGregor. Anyone who has ever seen Conor fight knows this. Donalds only chance was to weather the storm of the first minute or so and he failed miserably at that. He did not prepare for the vicious start that is often McGregors signature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that he was beat by Mac and obviously outmatched isn’t the point of contention. It’s the fact that he referred to him as a quitter. There’s no possible way to continue to fight with those injuries. He’s an asshole. That remark was uncalled for and false. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically he didnt quit, he never even started. He threw one punch that completely missed and one kick that had zero behind it and it missed too. Cerrone immediately tutled up and went down. Cerrone is a super slow starter. Always has been. This same thing has happened to him before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as he came out against your kneeling god, you turned on him. Phony. I don’t think he “quit” necessarily but, it was clear that two men stepped into that octo that night. One was a warrior, the other was a capitalist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmo Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Does anyone remember the NBA brawl at the Palace in Detroit when someone threw a drink at Ron Artest? Smith was on air immediately saying the players had every right to confront the fans and they were justified in going into the crowd. Until his boss at ESPN came down and told him to reconsider his thoughts. He’s wrong about a lot of things IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is 100% false but not surprising coming from you. I still listen on occasion but he's turned into a WWE performer constantly yelling about everything. Also his time slot on ESPN radio has been given to Jason Fitz with Stephen A making appearances. I find his take on the Cowboys and their fans actually pretty funny.

This is the first time that I ever heard of this guy. I feel sorry for anyone that’s willing to endure his bullshit for any length of time. His attempt to penetrate combat sports in the UFC was ridiculous at best. I doubt that there’s a single fighter who has any respect based on his lack of knowledge and fucked up statements. Then trying to back up what he said made the entire debacle worse for himself. $10m for that? Edited January 26, 2020 by spin_dry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost everyone knows that the quickest way to make you opponent quit is to smash his nose flat against his face. Works every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knows Conor is a fast starter he should have been more careful And he knows that Conor would likely try to strike him at the sound of the bell. Conor often strikes his opponent instead of touching gloves. This is stand McGregor. Everyone knows this. The last instruction from the referee is always “if you want to touch gloves, do it now”.
