  1. they have 8 weightclasses in ufc for a reason ! Connor is a better fighter 100% , but Hafthor is too big, and strong. He is a strongman worldchamp. He is ment to have muscles,strength,endurance and conditioning to win an event. He wouldve smashed Connor both in UFC rules and life and death. sry 8weightclasses for a reason. What we see in the video is Hafthor being 100% humble towards connor, while connor go ego tripping.

  2. The difference is the strength and power. Hafthor is a strongman. His strength plays a HUGE role in this. The difference in strength and power between Hafthor and Conor Mcgregor is HUGE. It's literally like a little boy trying to fight a grown male adult.
    When someone is THAT MUCH stronger than you, you can't do shit. You can do whatever techniques you want but it's useless when the strength difference is waaaaaaay too big.

  3. Straight kick directly to the knee…blow the entire knee out…can't fight if you can't stand.
    Now of course if he happens to grab you you're fucked…but he is moving in slow motion against any trained fighter.
    Honestly once his legs are taken out his head would be like a shiny soccer ball laying on the floor.

  4. Conor mcgregor is the Charlie zalonoff of mma he tells these ppl let’s have a friendly sparing session and then beats the shit out of them if he can (boxers) if he can’t he takes highlights out to make him look good and then talks shit about them after they leave to others about how he beat their ass like the mountain or that vinny guy they won’t release the footage of just lucky that one boxer had his own footage of him knocking Conor the Fk out when Conor and his pr team started slandering his name the dudes Charlie zalonoff with a pr crew backing him

  5. Size helps in a fight, But not so much when you're fighting a professional fighter, Regardless of size, If you get kicked in the head by a mma fighter then you're going to go down, And if they get on top of you then your size will not help. Even Demetrious Johnson would destroy this guy and he weigh's like 3x less than him. And from personal experience i find that people who take steroids cannot fight or take pain good.

  6. Nigga is really like 7 feet tall and whatever many pounds saying he can beat someone who is a lightweight like no shit -_- but why isn't he saying that so someone in the ufc who is (not even his own size) but relatively closer to his size. I'm pretty damn sure werdum could make this guy into his bitch.

  7. I’m a big time Conor Mcgregor fan and the Mountain didn’t say anything outrageous or fictional in this clip. He outweighs Conor by what a few hundred pounds?? His size would simply be too much. At a certain point, size does indeed matter. However, if he thinks he’s tough be he could “crush” a 145-155 pound world champ, then he should try taking on a UFC heavyweight and see how his “power” would translate in a real fight vs. someone comparable to him in size. Make no mistake, he’s definitely as powerful as they come, but that would be his ONLY legitimate tool in the octagon vs a UFC heavyweight and he would be put to sleep inside 3 minutes.
