4. Conor McGregor
The McGregor haters won’t like this, but Conor McGregor is one of the most acrobatic strikers of all time. This may be partially due to his very unique brand of training with controversial “movement” coach, Ido Portal.
Ido Portal was made famous at the UFC 196 pre-fight press conference, when Nate Diaz referred to him as “some dork in a ponytail”, and referred to Portal’s training methods as “playing touch butt in the park.” Diaz’s description isn’t far off, Portal’s training methods are a little bizarre. There can be no denying how fluid and precise Conor’s motions are however, though how much of that is Portal’s doing is up for some debate.
Generally when Conor ends a fight is through basic and simple punches to the face, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have an arsenal of Bruce Lee-esque manoeuvres he won’t break out if the right situation presents itself.
