Mixed Martial Arts / Re: The Conor McGregor Thread

has Ido EVER fought? he has such good movement, nice reflexes, seemingly good strikes.. it's a whole different animal actually fighting, but just curious if he's ever gotten in a cage/ring?

what's his damn last name ffs! it's not portal (Ido's Portal), or is it? HEH!

He was a capoeira instructor, then just wanted to branch out into other things and realized capoeira couldn't contain all these general movement ideas.

I read a comment on r/mma that said what makes Ido special and different from gymnastics coaches is that he focuses on teaching adults as opposed to gymnastics where they start kids from very early and don't have to overcome a lot of challenges with adults getting into the game. It's a whole order of magnitude in difficulty.

Ido Portal was asked by Ariel Helwani after Aldo fight what room for improvement remained for Conor regarding movement and he replied that Conor recognizes he's just a white belt but everyone else has yet to take their first class.
