It’s been over 5 years since Joseph Duffy defeated Conor McGregor under the Cage Warriors banner.<\/p>\n

In that time McGregor has gone on a 14 fight win streak and captured the interim UFC featherweight championship in a fight with Chad Mendes. <\/p>\n

Duffy on the other hand was just recently signed to the UFC, and has gone on a 2-fight win streak.<\/p>\n

While its been 5 years since Duffy defeated McGregor, he doesn’t think things would change in the event of a rematch.<\/p>\n

He spoke to MMAJunkie<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cConor\u2019s grown. He\u2019s grown in confidence, and obviously his stature has grown as well. I think he\u2019s learned a lot over the years. His ground game has improved, his striking has improved, and he\u2019s improved everywhere. He\u2019s obviously a different fighter five years on.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI would address the fight the same way I would any other: I would go in expecting the five rounds and I believe I can finish anyone,\u201d Duffy said. \u201cI\u2019m always looking for them opportunities, and the fight with Conor would be no different. I would be in there, and I would be looking for that finish.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s nobody I fight that I feel I can\u2019t beat in any area. I\u2019m one of them people \u2013 I feel I\u2019m an opportunist. I don\u2019t go in there planning to do one thing specifically. I just go in and let the fight unfold and react and take what opportunities are given to me.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
