    If Tony Ferguson does end up in the Octagon with McGregorthen it would be a very short night for him if he tries to fight the same type of fight he did tonight.

    Maybe, or he takes the shots like Diaz and drowns McGregor in deep waters. One thing that fight tonight showed me is he is absolutely relentless.

    Anyway, here we go!

    I don't know about that, the high pressure from Ferguson would be a nightmare for McGregor

    In the early stages it would be a dream come true for McGregor.

    I’ve changed my mind, Conor via quick left in the second.

    Balls out of the bath now lads, make the call, who you got?

    Think McGregor will be too quick for him, but Khabib is tough enough to weather it, will wear him down, and hammer the sh't out of him. Supporting the Irish man but always like Khabib!

    Good card so far.

    I think mcgregor looks very nervous. People have been saying it all the tie at all the press conferences but I really think it now!

    I've reached peak pre-fight nerves here now, watching that dry ice float around the ring and thinking "I hope that doesn't effect McGregors gas tank" :D

    I've got McGregor here. His striking will just be too much for Khabib. I think he'll do well fighting the takedown as well.

    Khabib will tire him out with takedown attempts and then KO McG

    Go on Conor. He looking a bit stiffer than usual? Wouldn't be human if he didn't have a few nerves I guess.

    Khabib looks a little more emotional than usual. Don’t think it’ll affect him though.

    Most will know I don't get involved in the amateur psychology that contaminates these threads at times but Khabib definitely looking the more nervous of the two on he walk out. Understandable and will potentially have absolutely zero impact but definitely looked it to me
