I'm calling it now

I think Ferguson would beat him because he's a zombie, but Khabib is just as hittable and a whole lot more liable to drop when he gets hit

Now we're just left to pray that Khabib makes it into the octagon

Lmao. You're as garbage of an MMA poster at you are NHL.

I don't think that's how Conor's contract works buddy. You are delusional if you think Beeb will get paid more for the fight. I'm pretty fukking sad my man Nate is fighting some retard and not going for the trilogy. The beeb fight is either going to be over very quickly or a long wrestle fuk of boring proportions. Khabib couldn't finish Al FFS.

Khabib isn't stupid. He's 26-0 for a reason. Conor isn't special. He's a very good striker, with awful ground game. Conor lost to Nate Diaz, arguably twice. He got taken down and mauled for two rounds by short notice 145 pound Chad Mendes. We're talking about the greatest LW of all time, and arguably the greatest MMA grapler of all time. Khabib is going to murder him.This fight is going to be a joke, you Conor stans actually thought he was going to beat Floyd, there's levels to this ****, and Khabib is on the god tier level.

There are maybe 2 guys who have records similar to that, so how do you define "special"? Conor has 2 belts in 2 different weight divisions. Khabib has 2 top 10 wins, LMFAO. Levels.

Conor Derangement Syndrome is most definitely real. Just admit that you hate him as a person, and talk all the chit you want, but when you start coming out with horrendous statements like that ^.. just lemayo.

If Conor wins I will quit watching MMA. If he wins he is the GOAT, no questions asked. He is not going to win. I haven't moved the goal posts, he hasn't fought in two years. He lost to Diaz both times, got a garbage decision, at the least it was a draw. Conor is a great MMA fighter, he's an awesome striker an I actually enjoy watching him fight. His fans are awful. You guys actually thought he was going to beat Floyd ****ing Mayweather. and you guys are so quick to forget/dismiss that he got choked the **** out by Nate Diaz lmao. Nate Diaz up to that point was a very meh fighter.

Finally, someone talking sense.

I don't think khabib is going to do anything stupid or crazy or out of character; he's well aware of what conor can do and should have a gameplan in place. I'd bet he's going to be a lot more focused because of the bus incident as well.

He will have to setup his takedowns. You don't just take a man down. Conor will train if smart almost exclusively for that. You open yourself up every time for a take down and I hate to admit it but Conor is the master at counter punching/ judging exact distance he needs to KO someone. I think Conor will get an early KO 2nd round.

Diaz is Conor's kryptonite. He literally is almost made to beat him. He can take punches, has just as good straight boxing, better cardio, doesn't care to eat a counter punch to land something, and rekts him in jitzu. I've NEVER rooted for Conor but I think he handles it pretty quick. Khabib has beaten who?

Khabib got tagged by AL LA QUINTA FFS going for take downs. Conor puts my man Nate down with punches like that. If khabib gets tagged one time trying for a take down he is going to question himself... The only way I see him winning is to grind it out standing up and pressuring somehow into clinch and making Conor tired. If Conor comes in with same cardio he did in 2nd Diaz fight Beeb has no chance.

My guy, he did not get tagged, at any point in the Al fight. He stood with Al, AND WON THE EXCHANGES, because he chose too. Al Iaquinta isn't a bum, he's on the same level as Nate Diaz. Good boxing, solid BJJ, great cardio. Khabib won 50-44, 50-43, 50-43. Lmao he ****ing ruined Al. Conor is going to look very very bad this fight. He's gonna get taken down and look hopeless. Khabib took MJ's best and Barbozas best, walked through both. You listen to too much Rogan if you think Khabib was ever "hurt".

We're two months away, Conor stans are gonna stan. The guy hasn't fought in two years and he's going to come in and sleep a 26-0 fighter who has never been hurt in his career? lmao. Mods ban me if conor wins, i will agree Conor is the GOAT if he wins so please ban me if that happens.

I'm not a Conor stan you fuktard. Saying Khabib is going to rekt the best counter puncher and sizing up distance punching is absurd. The guy raped Mendes who is a beast within 2 rounds. If khabib can get him down in the first and second then it's probably good night for Conor. But Conor only has to train for ONE THING. And it's to keep distance and counter punch. The only thing Conor sucks at is being on the ground and cardio. He fixed is cardio as far as we know, and I'm sure hes working on the other.

He didn't rape mendes lmao. Mendes was on two weeks notice and gassed. He took Conor down and beat him up for two rounds, Khabib is 1000000000x the wrestler Mendes. You guys are talking about Conor only having to train for one thing lmao. Khabib has been wrestling since he was in diapers. Guy literally wrestled bears when he was a kid.

Ghosts tell Khabib stories around camp fires.

Hey I hope Khabib rapes him and gets a submission in a round or two. Ive hated Conor from day one. The man tags you with a flush hit and every single person is done after besides Nate. I think Conor has a better chance to tag him within 2 rounds rather than Khabib take him down. If last longer than 2 rounds I favor Khabib.

Mendes also had a MASSIVE reach disadvantage which Conor fully knew how to exploit. With Khabib the reach difference is half what it was with Mendes. Will that be enough? Have to wait and see...

**Murrmanski** · 08-05-2018, 04:30 AM

Khabibs performance against Iaquinta left a lot to be desired. He looked very beatable in that fight.

I think Khabib is an excellent fighter but against someone as precise as Conor, he's gonna get fukking tagged early.

Conor has a better chance against Khabib than Tony. Tony is just as tough as Nate, but has more tools in the striking department and also better wrestling than Nate.

conor wouldn't have put out half the energy and workrate as Iaquinta did.

Khabib dominated that fight against Al and the scorecards reflected that. Yes he ****ed around in the stand up, but still won every second of every round, comfortably. He's not going to stand up and flick out single jabs like that against Conor McGregor, because Conor will counter those with his eyes closed. Khabib said this when he did the Q&A in Calgary, he's not stupid.

I wouldn't take too much from the fight against Al Iaquinta.

I think Conor vs Khabib really is a simple fight, it's style vs style, we know exactly how both fighters win this fight, but nobody knows how it's going to go down.

aww hell yeah, how long does it usually take for full card to come out? I want to see Adesanya and Zabit get more chances, they are my favorites atm

You're also comparing a guy who gets to choose who he wants to fight and when, to a guy who fights whoever they say he fights.

Funny that's a reason guys around here use to detract from Mayweather, in a sport where that's actually the norm, but when Conor is the only person in the UFC afforded that luxury it's "zOmG!!! hE'z dA GoAt!!!111"

Why are you just making stuff up? Who has Conor 'chosen' to fight? I want names. Being extremely generous to you, the only fight that might possibly qualify is Alvarez. But a champion moving up will always get a shot if they have any sort of name.

Mayweather literally hand picked opponents based on where they were at in their careers so that he would have the best chance to win.. for like 15 years.

So @bold fact check: False

**KingSWRV** · 08-05-2018, 12:31 PM

I do remember khabib boasting that he's not going to fight Connor the same way he fought somebody else

It was like an interview and somebody criticized about him trying to stand up instead of just do takedowns against a weaker opponent and he said something about being smart enough to know what to do when to do it

Khabib is the rightful favorite because it’s a lot easier to take someone down and work the top game than it is to connect clean and put someone out

That said, the only time Conor is at a true disadvantage is when his opponent has a bigger frame, equal or more reach, is loose, and has a chin. That’s Tony, and Nate to an extent

Khabib is stiff, shorter, and his td’s are not typical of north american folkstyle wrestlers. Khabib really has to grind for his td’s, and leaves himself open when trying to close the distance. His shots are actually pretty pathetic in terms of technique, and a lot of guys with a sambo base suffer from that

Will you really be surprised if Conor cracks him and punches him out? This fight is not that far off from the Alvarez fight, honestly. If Conor has a frame and reach on his opponent he’s got a good chance at ending the fight

**weightsb4dates** · 08-05-2018, 04:46 PM

Khabib might go out on a stretcher in this one

**jazi** · 08-05-2018, 04:56 PM

frame and aim wins the game

Huh?

Bro you act like he didn't beat:
-Roided Aldo (destroyed him, otherwise I wouldn't bring this up)
-Much larger diaz who gave it all he had at a larger size (one of my favorite fights of all time)
-Poirier experienced underrated fighter (destroyed him)
-Alvarez also experienced/very knowledgeable fighter who was coming off 3 GREAT wins

The only thing that may **** McGregor up is his inactivity. This is going to be a badass fight.

**Manletbolic** · 08-05-2018, 11:13 PM

Khabib most likely sleeping early that night if he doesnt manage to blanket conor.

**CptClean** · 08-06-2018, 02:14 AM

Gonna bet 500 on overall khabib win and `100 on mcgregor 1st rd knockout

**sdmk** · 08-06-2018, 05:44 AM

cant wait for the stans to make the odds closer to even
khabib @ 1.8+ is ridiculous value
just lol @ thinking this is close to a 50/50 fight

he's gonna solidify himself as the undisputed GOAT!!!!

How is Khabib Conor's kryptonite? Seems like he destroyed the only real grappler that he faced. Conor's real kryptonite, as we saw vs Diaz, is someone with good cardio who can take a shot and keep coming.
