    My interesting contribution for today:

    McGregor mentions how he stopped running for a bit but is glad to be back at it. Cardio could be back to the levels he showed at featherweight. Always felt a lack of running was a big cause.

    Mods, please dont shut down reasonable conversation on Khabibs beliefs just because there is one or two trolls.


    As I already said previously this is an MMA forum, not the place to be discussing religion.


    With the some of the juvenille comments that people have posted it's quite clear that some people arent knowledgable enough or grown up enough to talk about such things so its better placed in the appropriate forums.

    Back on track please..

    his ties to a dictator is also questionable.

    He doesn't have ties to a dictator, he has ties to an oligarch called Ziyavudin Magomedov, the fact that someone who lives in the south caucasus doesn't tell the dictator of the neighbouring federal republic and one of the most powerful men in Russia to feck off when he's summoned to entertain him doesnt mean he has links to or supports Ramzan Kadyrov. You seem to skip over Conor bigging up a strong man dictator and shoving his tongue up his ring calling him a great leader to get a photo with Putin at the world cup final. Kadyrov is just Putin's lapdog.

    On the other hand, Conor's Gym was built and expanded with the aid of money that they willingly took from Sheikh Khalid bin Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa of Bahrain who sponsored half of SBG's fight team and and Kavanagh for years.

    Kavanagh didn't have any opposition to trying to sign Khabib to the kind Sheikh's new fight team KHK MMA back in 2015 or sending umpteen SBG boys over to fight Brave Combat Federation cards and act as a mouthpiece for the Bahraini royal family.

    "how he seems to treat female physicians after a fight" is absolute nonsense too, you're looking for things to justify your irrational dislike of him based on his religious beliefs.

    Khabib is not Conor therefore Khabib is bad

You seem to skip over Conor bigging up a strong man dictator and shoving his tongue up his ring calling him a great leader to get a photo with Putin at the world cup final. Kadyrov is just Putin's lapdog

    He wasn't the only one invited around;
    Kadyrov’s foray into MMA began in 2015, when he founded the Akhmat MMA fight club and MMA promotion (known as World Fighting Championship of Akhmat — WFCA) and invited former UFC champions Frank Mir, Fabricio Werdum and Chris Weidman to attend the first show. He has since hosted other UFC fighters, including former UFC champ Frankie Edgar, title challenger Alexander Gustafsson, as well as Makwan Amirkhani, Ilir Latifi,and retired veterans like Renzo Gracie. Werdum continued to make trips to Chechnya during his UFC heavyweight title reign and signed a deal to become an ambassador to Kadyrov’s MMA promotion.
    I think a lot of them was naïve and cut it once pointed out, but Werdum seems to jump in with both feet. Kadyrov also took a special interest in Khabib due to the Caucasus connection.
    There was a fighter who was given a car from Kadyrov, wasn’t Khabib – he got his from Magomedov.
    On the other hand, Conor's Gym was built and expanded with the aid of money that they willingly took from Sheikh Khalid bin Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa of Bahrain who sponsored half of SBG's fight team and and Kavanagh for years.

    Kavanagh didn't have any opposition to trying to sign Khabib to the kind Sheikh's new fight team KHK MMA back in 2015 or sending umpteen SBG boys over to fight Brave Combat Federation cards and act as a mouthpiece for the Bahraini royal family.
    That’s all true. But you can’t really pardon Khabib, and slate Kavanagh for doing more or less the same thing. And vice versa. Either they are both wrong, or they both are free to take hand-outs when struggling.
    Focusing on one or the other is back in irrational dislike territory you mentioned.

    Go back to AH? I could be a re-reg of wonderfullife for all you know.
    Well the fact you know who wonderfullife is pretty much confirms you’re a re-reg of someone at least.
    Seeing as it says on the left that you joined months after he left. :pac::pac::pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,464 ✭✭✭Ultimate Seduction


    Interview with Megan is up on UFC YouTube. Short and sweet. Didn't say much but seems focused and hungry for more fights after this one.

    Yep. That is why I made that comment, to show that I’m not a blow in troll.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,464 ✭✭✭Ultimate Seduction


    The striking stats are crazy. Khabib has better accuracy and defense..

    Conor has more successful takedowns..
