There are some fricking dumb takes in this fricking thread by both fan bases.

Enlighten us, oh wise one

He said when he planted to throw what we thought was a rolled ankle was his ankle breaking but not breaking through the skin yet.

The twist is what finished it off. It was already broken. When that exact moment happened is debatable. It wasn’t affecting him before they went to the ground. Now that I see that elbow kick, it all makes sense

Connors next big venture…Proper 12 plus calcium.

*stolen off the interwebs

Conor fans: complain about Dustin’s actions after the match, but not Conor’s own actions. Making excuses on how he broke his leg. They think he would have won the fight if he didn’t break his leg.

Dustin fans: See no problem with Dustin mocking and talking shite to Conor while he is sitting there with a broke leg, but complain about Conor’s actions. Want to talk about Conor breaking his leg on a check that Dustin felt, but Conor had no reaction about it. Believe Dustin would have won no matter what, and there was no way Conor could knock him out in the second even if he didnt brake his leg.

You can chalk the talking up as adrenaline and wanting to beat the shite out of each other for months but couldn’t. Dustin’s wife should never be allowed in a ring again. How the leg broke drama is bs. It doesn’t matter if it was on a check, elbow or by a misstep by Conor. It happened, and Conor lost bc of it. If Conor fractured it during the fight then you have to say Conor is a bad Fricker to keep fighting on it while kicking (if Dustin felt it crack Conor would have to). You also have to say the fight could have gone totally different if the fracture didn’t happen.

Only way for Conor to ever win that fight is by knocking Dustin out in the first 2 rounds. Conor just isn’t the same “Notorious” in that weight class.

At this point Dustin has taken conors best shots. Of course it's possible for conor to knock him out but it would have to be a shot poirier didn't see coming. LINK look how much stronger dustin looks here.

I honestly hope poirier goes and gets the belt and conor needs to beat at least 2 top 5 guys before he gets a shot at the title

I’m not a fan of either. I’m just calling it like I see it. Dustin was gonna end that fight in the 2nd. Conor was gassed, like always, after he spent all that energy on that frivolous guillotine attempt.

In his defense, Conor was cussing at him from his backside at the time. The a-hole eating, while funny, was uncalled for

Poirier shouldn't fight him again. There's nothing to gain. He'll win again, McDoushe will run his mouth again after he loses. Rinse, lather repeat.

It'll take a long time to come back from that. Be broke through both bones in his leg. Technically it will grow back just as strong, if not stronger for a brief time, but you know he'll be thinking about that with every kick in the future.

Anderson Silva's leg break was the same thing as the Leprechaun's. He came back but was never close to the same
