The only times he was successful was when he cheated. Which was almost every minute of every grappling exchange. (What the hell is Dillon coaching him on? Conor's grappling looks about the same as before he started training with Dillon.)

The small amount of success he had was bc he a) grabbed Khabib's shorts, b) grabbed Khabib's gloves, or c) kept his guard down when standing. And that led to him getting dropped.

There was just basic shit Conor was doing wrong. I think after the Diaz submission and this one by Khabib, I agree that Conor looks for ways out of the fight when he is losing. I mean, he gave up his back way too easy both submissions.
