So missing a kick on another fighter(yes the guy Khabib went after is himself an active professional fighter) after an event is worse than throwing shite throw a window and actually injuring fighters before an event?

There is no reasonable way to come to the conclusion that what Khabib did was any more "punishable" than what Conor did.

Never mind the fact that Conor also jumped out the cage and started the brawl in the ring

Conor played that as well as he could


I'll agree with that. Compared to barboza and Michael Johnson.. Conor did a much better job of handling khabib ground attack. Khabib did land a few shots here and there but he did not manhandle him like he does most of the time.

Please. He went after Dillon for talking smack saying that khabib and his team was “all talk”. Khabib made all real flying like an eagle by himself.

If you watch the videos, a lot of the fans were fist pumping when it went down. The fans were not in danger. Actually, they were fighting among themselves outside the arena. Please go apply for security if you care that much about fans safety.

Stop trying to pretend to care about fan safety or the “purity of the sport”.

It’s just sad that some Conor nuthuggers desperately grabbing for any form of moral victory as their world is fell apart.

I don’t think much will happen to khabib as he’s got leverage and saftery net now. Everybody knows he’s the guy who smashed Notorious. He’s got the attention of casual fans and well as Irish fans. Now 27-0. People want to see him fight. UFC knows this.

And if he gets banned? He has enough money, a national hero, his legacy cemented in mma community. And the LW belt will lose weight as people will remember that it belonged undefeated khabib and that the new champion sis not take it from him.

People keep trying to compare the two events, there is no comparison. One happened during a sanctioned and regulated fight and the other didn’t. It’s not apples to apples. It’s foolish to keep bringing up the bus.

Proof-reading is your friend.

Looks like I was right. Sorry, Conor fanboy. What's your address so I can mail you a box of tissue?

And I was watching MMA before you were swimming around in your daddy's sack.

He could have but wanted to dole out more punishment. Conor wasn't getting off easy.

Yep. Khabib fricks people up. Conor got out pretty clean and as you pointed out, he didn’t take nearly as many shots from guard as barboza did. It wasn’t nearly as bad as people want to make it out to be. Conor got tired. Everyone khabib fights gasses. He lays on top of people for 25 minutes. It’s beautiful from a technical standpoint but also frustrating as a fan of striking.

No. That’s tv talk. He didn’t get to dole out NEARLY as much as he wanted. Go watch khabibs fights if you think Conor got took a bunch of punishment. He didn’t. The most significant shots he ate were on his feet. He was tired.

LOL you grew up around gyms huh?? Events?? Lol. You must have walked past one every day for lunch you fricking bitch. You haven’t trained for a fight ever in your life you fricking liar. You are an embarrassment. You and I, physically, aren’t even the same species “brother”. Yes I’ve trained for a fight with actual real dudes. More importantly I still do because it’s a lifestyle. It’s how some people live. I’m not some tub of shite like you. There’s no huge difference in me physically at 25 versus today because I’m not a sack of shite chasing jocks. Post whatever memes you want but You simply wouldn’t make it through one training session. Not one. You are just spewing nonsense. You are a total pussy. I wouldn’t even strike you. I would feel bad. Fighting isn’t a joke. It’s real. People get hurt. I would feel bad to hit you with a closed fist because I know who you are. Anyone I’ve ever trained with would be ragged in the gym non stop for ever hitting someone like you. It would be the equivalent of striking a woman. None of that shite you spewed is true. None of it. Why do you continue to post here? Are you a masochist? Everyone hates you.

Good stuff.

You don’t even know what you are seeing when you watch an mma fight. Stooooop.

The GREAT Dominic Cruz. 24-2. One of the baddest to ever step into an octagon. As high of a fight IQ as anyone that’s ever done it. Put respect on his name you fat frick. Just stop. Your just some fat guy with terrible genes.

Dude seriously is there anyone worse on this entire board?? Complete joke.

How else could he played it besides eating those bombs from the bottom?


He didn’t eat a bunch of bombs. You are talking about 4-6 Oz gloves. Bombs put people to sleep with that little padding. When you are in guard it OFTEN looks way worse to a spectator than it is. It’s just tiring. You have to be calm. You can’t keep trying to explode out of it. You have to be patient. This is not a knock but I’m not sure who I’m ever talking to on here so I don’t know if some of you really know what you are seeing. If you don’t know what it’s like to work in the guard position then you just don’t get it. Glancing blows and forearms and having a guys forehead grinding on your chin is uncomfortable but you have to understand the threshold for pain and discomfort that these guys have. Even the average person can develop an incredibly high threshold for this kind of discomfort by training in jiu jitsu. The only real hard shot he ate was the straight right that dropped him. Conor got tired. The finish wasn’t even a rear naked choke. It wasn’t under his chin. It was a neck crank and that shite hurts. The casual fan does not understand what they saw in that fight. Period.

Kind of a generic advice to anyone in any stressed situation. It’s sounds good, but easier said than done. Even harder to have khabib on top of you. Even more humiliating when khabib said “Let’s talk now” while on top.

Problem is that Conor knew he was in deep shite at the stare down. He could even look at khabib in the eyes. No calmness or patience would’ve saved him.

No man. Just no. It’s not generic. I could go deeper but that is numero uno. Have u ever been in guard or spent time on a mat? I’m asking seriously I promise. Not being a dick. They drill this stuff every damn day. They have fresh bodies waiting. 5 minutes on your back working from guard with some heavy fricker mounting you. The timer goes off and a new fresh body replaces him. Do that for 10 rounds. It a whole different realm of fatigue and mental focus. They are more comfortable in these close quarters than u think. There is no fear. They are not normal people. They are not afraid of each other. Afraid of what? Getting punched? These guys go into a cage and shut the door and as ridiculous as it may seem, I PROMISE you that right now Conor believes that he can correct some things and win a rematch.

So he’s going to wear the Infinity Gauntlet instead of mma gloves in the rematch?

I know. That stuck out to me the most as well.

In his defense, he has had a really tough few days. He is being exposed everywhere apparently, and he isn't handling it very well.
