UFC Fan’s Thread Shows Why Jorge Masvidal 'Doesn’t Stand A Chance Against Conor McGregor'

UFC Fan’s Thread Shows Why Jorge Masvidal 'Doesn’t Stand A Chance Against Conor McGregor'

Firas Zahabi said Conor McGregor's left hand is like the "touch of death." And a fan has 'exposed' Masvidal's vulnerability to left shots.

A UFC fan has produced a Twitter thread to spotlight how Jorge Masvidal would be unable to withstand a vicious left from Conor McGregor.

BMF champ Masvidal, 35, has traded a war of words with McGregor and has been vocal about his desire to face the former UFC superstar in a mega-fight.

And McGregor, who made his stunning UFC return in January, has previously called out 'Gamebred' in a heated social media spat.

A Twitter user has now taken to social media and compiled a thread exposing the times that Masvidal has been 'tagged or dropped by left hands.'

And the fan argued Masvidal's vulnerability to a left hand would leave him little chance against McGregor, who possesses destructive power in his left.

Firas Zahabi, who was the long-time trainer for UFC legend Georges St-Pierre, famously said that McGregor's left hand is like the "touch of death."

The Tristar Gym head coach explained: "I think it's partly genetic.

"He's got that left hand, it's the touch of death. That touch of death comes at a cost.

"Where does power come from? Number one on the list is where your muscle is attached to the bone. It's genetic.

"So, Mike Tyson, he has a powerful left hook not because his coach taught him how to hit a left hook.

"He could have hit a left hook like that if he had a mediocre trainer."

A Masvidal-McGregor super-fight now seems unlikely after the Irish superstar made his shock retirement in June.
