Lol even if Khabib does his smesh thing - McGregor is still in the conversation as a top 15 if not top 10 fighter ever.

His resume and achievements are incredible.

Its why this clouded hatred is pathetic. If Khabib is crap with a bloated record then the win means less for McGregor. If Khabib is gonna 'find him out' then its a nothing win for him as well.

Was talking with a friend of mine and he reckons that if he was to lose tonight than Mcgregor will never he a ufc champion again.

If he cant beat Khabib at 155 then he has no chance at 170 against Woodley.

Subcomandante Marcos · 06-10-2018 11:57am

Whoever wins tonight, neither is getting "found out". This is combat sports at the pinnacle whether it's a 5 round barn burner or a quick finish either way. The margins of error at this level are ridiculously small.

When Stipe got sparked by DC nobody was talking about him getting "found out". He's still in the conversation for greatest HW of all time. He's still probably one of the two best HWs on earth right now.

MarkJD · 06-10-2018 11:57am

Sure just wait until McGregor beats him in spectacular fashion as usual and there will still be people saying Khabib wasnt that good or McGregor is afraid of Tony and he will never fight him etc. Its the same every time.

The Diaz loss really set him back in terms of peoples perspective on how good he is considering Diaz is considered a journeyman! Styles make fights since UFC 1 and MMA Math doesnt exist.

If Eddie hadnt of lost recently I would imagine most would probably pick him handily to win over Diaz... a good portion would as well despite the loss.

Of course he has no chance against Woodley, the man's enormous for 170. He would murder Conor if he connected even once.

Personally i’d buy a bottle of green spot or redbreast ...

They're two of my favourites Irish whiskeys. But hardly a fair comparison. They're single pot still at about twice the price.
Proper 12 is competing with the likes of cask mates, distillers series, and other "premium but not really premium whiskeys".

I tried Red Bush a while ago at the distillery. It's tastes like they going after the bourbon market with that one.

Sure but it’s a waste when you could pay a wee bit more in Tesco and get a redbreast lustau or greenspot. Proper 12 is a one punch whisky it won’t compete long term.

Nice post. I like when you (and others) speak sense and reason as opposed to condescension and dismissiveness.

The Lustau is about €70. Greenspot €60, or €70
for the Greenspot Leoville. It's not a wee bit more, it twice the price. I've literally got all 3 in the house. Proper 12 wouldn't touch the other two - but it was free.

Eir or BT Sport. I remember people saying one of them wasn't reliable streaming for a UFC card before, any advice which to go for?

I find BT is perfect when watching on the laptop.

The gas bit of that is at 0.17 when Conor uses Danas massive neck as leverage to get the kick away.

Khabib is a moron, doesn't even take off his shirt shoes or hat for a proper face off. Everyone on the undercard done more than him. Then he copies the stance diaz done against mcgregor, never put his arm out like that in any other weigh in, lame.

Seriously?

No

Just a lazy troll

I'm sooo conflicted about the length of the fight, obviously a quick KO is epic and exciting in itself but I'm not going to lie, I'd prefer if it was several rounds at least just for the adrenaline rush

You'll always get it at these events, in Paris for Euro 16 was the same, full of scumbags from here.
