mcgregor by tko rd 2
U realize Habib has the Rinnegan and all Connor Mcgregor has is a shitty versace bath robe right
If the fight will last longer than 2 rounds, Habib is going to win.
habib to beef kritz round 1. im calling an early victory for mcgregor
26-1 motherfuckers
2nd round KO khabib to run in for the single leg like the rat he is and get starched right there and then by the king
2nd round KO khabib to run in for the single leg like the rat he is and get starched right there and then by the king
Conor with a flying north south ezekiel choke or peruvian necktie using his leg hair in the 5th
[spoiler]What i actually think... if it gets past the first round i think its Khabib by decision 48-45ish or kimura from side control in 4th. Khabibs guard pass is too good for conors guard, he wont sit there like mendes, OR its just eddie v2 but id say its unlikely
[/spoiler]
McGregor has been training hard. Khabib isnt gonna pull out of this one.. McGregor had plenty of time to study him and train. Khabib is going down boy. You can also see that when McGregor lost to Diaz he came back and fucked him up. He's smart. Gonna be a good fight, im excited to see how he deals with Khabib's takedown. Lets go!
Khabib looked like total shit at the weigh-in. He was like a fucking zombie because of this difficult cut and that is concerning. I have seen so many fighters lose because of a difficult cut and simply under perform at game time. I really hope Khabib bounces back from this quickly and gives us a good show.
McGregor's grappling is always put under a microscope because his striking is so nasty. There is no way McGregor can fight 5 rounds with Khabib in a grappling contest or even 3 rounds IMO. That said, grapplers often lose that edge when they get hit with strikes. I can see the same thing happening in this fight as Khabib gets hit hard and losses his best weapon because of it.
I'm cheering for McGregor, but as a former wrestler/grappler, I am biased towards Khabib. I hope its a great card/fight.

[spoiler]If you are a betting person, I consider one of the matches on this card to be the closest thing to a lock I have seen in a long time. The female fight - Aspen Ladd vs Tonya Evinger. Put everything you have on Tonya Evinger. Yeah, she is a good bit older and her body doesn't look as you would expect for a fighter but she is super tough and is going to school this younger girl. DEAD WRONG WOW, ladd beasted her[/spoiler]
Shout-out to the Derek Lewis post fight interview. That shit was so fucking funny
Sounds like Khabib hangs out with Iron Man according to that tweet
if anyone is interested, karim zidan has covered this incredibly well at bloody elbow

@tailortf mad cuz khabib is a beast. hate to see it >:)
I have a deep respect for russians and eastern europeans. Happy to see Khabib, a traditional and honorable man, take the win.
TailorTFKhabib's a fucking twat

Still a great card all around and worth the PPV buy this time IMO
Ferguson vs Pettis was fucking awesome. Blood all over both guys, smiling like maniacs.
That's the MMA you love to watch
Reyes vs St. Preux was a dominating display from an up and comer.
Lewis vs Volkov was one sided until 1 big shot landed, can't get more exciting.
The 3 womens fights were, once again, action packed. Herring/Waterson was fantastic.
I hope Gray Manyard retires before he gets seriously hurt or brain damage
