Sounds like 170 pounds will be his new home for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re going to have to do something really big to get Conor at 155 again,\u201d Coach John Kavanagh told mixedmartialarts.com<\/a> (via MMA Fighting<\/a>). \u201c170 is a comfortable cut for him now and he\u2019s got the frame for it. He certainly has the strength for it. He\u2019s always had an unusual \u2014 he\u2019s got that orangutan reach, so he\u2019s comfortable at that. He can tie his shoelaces without bending down, you know?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHow does the calendar look? I stay in my lane, I\u2019m just the coach. But of course, I would like to see him busier than waiting until next April,\u201d Kavanagh continued. \u201cWe\u2019re going to be done and dusted early July. So all going well, a little break and then back into it. I would love to have something before the end of the year, but I\u2019ll let the guys in the suits argue about that.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sounds like 170 pounds will be his new home for the foreseeable future. \u201cYou\u2019re going to have to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":787685,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[570],"tags":[64,63,786,40762,785,85,318251,1396,179146,55880,1647],"class_list":["post-787684","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mma","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-fighting","tag-latest-ufc-mma-news","tag-mma","tag-sports","tag-ufc-329","tag-ufc-news","tag-ufc-on-paramount","tag-ufc-weigh-ins","tag-upcoming-ufc-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787684","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=787684"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/787684\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/787685"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=787684"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=787684"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=787684"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
