You don't "go" for a guillotine. When you can't stuff the takedown and you have nothing else in your arsenal you try to shut your opponent down. Conor couldn't defend, nor could he put himself in a good offensive position to get some strikes in or gain control. Also his stand-up game was shut the fukk down. Only thing he could do was grab on and squeeze as hard as he could and hope Dustin tapped.
Lol I been watching mma for damn near 20 years, I never used the word "go". He WENT for the guillotine while defending a takedown from Dustin. If Dustin wasn't a black belt In bjj, Conor could've won by submission but you not catching someone on dustins level with that. Dustin did everything he was supposed to do to defend, Conor initially had that guillotine sunk in and a lot of fighters panic in that situation but not dustin
Before that sequence, they were BOTH landing. Conor had 43 total strikes to Poirers 36. I don't know why people in here acting like Conor got completely washed and you over here talking about his offense got shut down, what the fukk were you watching?? I stand by my statement about the fight being pretty even standing until that sequence up against the cage
Dana wants to run it a 4th time, Conor wants to run it a 4th time and Dustin wants to run it a 4th time. We will see them fight again, no one truly won that fight. If Dustin would've landed before the snap then it's a different story but he didn't
