All of this talk of a re-match, Conor can’t beat Khabib. He’d lose 10 out of 10 to him. It’s a match-up nightmare for Conor. I have a thing against pulling for fighters affiliated with terrorist, so I was pulling for Conor last night, but it was evident he is not in the same class as Khabib.

Conor should be glad, in some way, the mayhem started after. It overshadowed the arse kicking that would be the top story otherwise.

The man that lost the most last night though was Nate Diaz. His trilogy fight with Conor just got trumped by an inevitable re-match with Khabib.

Khabib will dominate McGregor again and his star will dim, causing a lost interest in the Diaz trilogy.

No one should have expected anything other than what we saw last night. Most of us for hoping for a miracle but expecting what we saw.

Not only did Khabib dominate on the ground, he got the edge standing up as well.
I'm still surprised Khabib was composed enough not to make any huge mistake during the fight, then completely went ape shite after the fight.

Yep, total mismatch. I want to see Khabib v Woodley.

I’ve watched all Conor’s ufc fights, and most his press bs and training stuff for most his fights, and my feeling from the start was he’d lose this fight. If you look back at the Aldo, alverez and the 2nd Diaz fight, he was obsessed with victory. I never got that feeling from this fight. You can tell every move he makes is now 100% about the Benjamin’s

Absolutely. It’s not remotely close nor will it be. Add to the fact that Khabib is a legitimate lunatic with true hatred of Conor and it’s not a contest. Khabib wasn’t the slightest bit afraid of Conor’s strikes.

Conor’s only hope was to catch him early. Once khabib laid on him for a round and wore Conor down a bit it was over.

How many times has this been a thing for you? You make it sound as if this is a recurring dilemma for you.

There are theories that Khabib’s trainer was a 9/11 conspirator who got off a plane day of and turned informant for the FBI.

That was an absolute asskicking. It was similar to watching mayweather wear down an opponent with his technique. When Khabib repeatedly locked up Mcgregors legs while laying on top of him. Just another day on the mats for Khabib. Sambo is lethal.

I thought this was a proven fact?

He was also pulled from the flight in Egypt on 9/11 they found that he had 5 passports on him.

If it’s been proven I haven’t seen it. I’m pretty sure all of the “proof” of this is one book without any corroborated evidence.

Doesn’t mean he was a conspirator.

The dude also manages Frankie Edgar, Rashad Evans, Renzo Gracie etc; I would expect them to have the hatred y’all do considering they’re American especially Frankie edgar.

Khabib vs Ferguson is still the dream matchup. Both guys go forward and have unlimited cardio.

That's all what Conor said, and while the larger statement (that Abdelaziz was an informant is true), I would like to see more evidence of the specifics other than Conor just shite talking at a media event.

This is from a book that I will trust as a believable source.



However, it should be noted that Abdelaziz has one of the more impressive set of fighters in the world, which says a lot about the VIP treatment that unhelpful informants get.

He is the President of the company that manages Frankie Edgar, Renzo Gracie, Cody Garbrandt, Justin Gaetheje, Rumble Johnson, Rashad Evans, Ray Borg, and Abdul Rezak Alhassan. He is repping some of the top black and white American fighters, European fighters, African fighters, etc in addition to being the main guy for the fighters from Dagestan.

That’s what makes it hard for me to believe he’s a full blown terrorist especially if he manages a guy like Frankie Edgar

I think he’s shady as frick, don’t get me wrong but I don’t think he’s suicifal bomber either

No.

#1 Khabib vs Ferguson in April.

#2 Super fight vs Ortega late 2019.

#3 Whoever emerges in the division be it Lee, Porier or Conor rematch.

#4 probably retire

I think that Khabib gets his license pulled, suspended for a year, and stripped of the title.

Poirier vs Diaz for the 155 title

Winner fights T-Ferg
