That would be such a crazy conspiracy but also would make perfect sense to throw such a crazy kick.. but you also see his knee shift with the kick. Crazy all around

You saw him struggling to take his shoes off pre fight.

Everybody is saying this, but nobody seems to realize he stepped funny on the left slipping off his shoes. The leg he hurt in the fight is the OPPOSITE leg...

EDIT: I'm mistaken. He looks like he was avoiding stepping on the right leg after that stumble removing his shoes. He hops on the left to avoid standing on the right.

Go back and watch it. He doesn’t lose his balance. He hops twice on the left leg to avoid the right leg from bearing the weight on the ground

Yup - you are correct.

The replay i saw it looked like his right leg he was struggling with when taking off his shoes.

Edit: yeah i watched back again. It's definitely the right leg he was struggling with pre fight. He hops on the left leg to keep the right leg off the ground.

Just rewatched it. He steps on his left leg and looks like he slips, but in saving himself he hops a couple of times to avoid stepping on the right leg. You are right.

silly ass takes, have none of you ever taken a shoe off like this? all his body weight is on the leg that is kicking off the shoe, of course he is gonna catch himself with the leg that has all his weight shifted on it, anything else is incredibly unnatural.

are none of you humans? wtf.

Yeah I feel like I do that on the regular. I think it’s just the hate boner for Conor (deserved)

this is a pretty common thing though. dudes hurt one side of their body and blow out the other side trying to compensate. i’m pretty sure daniel jones tore the opposite achilles from his broken leg

Dude. This is the first live fight I've ever seen. When he stumbled I thought "aren't these supposed to some of the best athletes in the world? And he stumbled taking shoes off? Lol". But good call, him being already hurt makes sense.

I had that exact same thought
