    Hate to say it, but McGregor's game-plan was terrible, stank of ego. He tried to walk down Khabib from the off. Kavanagh told him between rounds to wait, and he went straight out and walked him down again. Almost Diaz 1 like in its lack of tactics.

    I reckon they'll strip Khabib of the title and have Conor and Ferguson fight for it. Winner will then face Khabib.

    Very little if anything McGregor can take from that fight,

    I suppose at least he wasn't the one causing the ugly scenes this time.

    Khabib has screwed himself, idiot.

    The guy I'd love to get my hands on is the one who hit Conor after the fight. I hope he gets arrested and charged.

    IF that scumbag and his team are ever allowed near the ufc again it’s a disgrace.

    Which one in fairness?

    So it turns out the guy who assaulted Conor in the octagon is Artem’s upcoming opponent in three weeks, Zubaira Tukhugov.

    The Russians had it planned to a tee.

    Apparently it was Tukhugov that sucker punched Conor, he's scheduled to fight Artem in a few weeks....

    Aftermath doesnt matter in terms of the fight.

    MacGregor tapped out.

    Done. The russian won.

    Champion for 5 seconds before pissing it i to the wind.

    If they strip him I doubt he'll be back for a while if at all.

    He was beaten by a better more powerful fighter.

    Conor a shadow of his best.

    Dana will have a lot of problems to deal with after that.

    The blind shots were a disgrace


  • Registered Users Posts: 419 ✭✭TJ Mackie

    its disappointing, because what Conor would have hated most is for Khabib to win comfortably and treat it like any other win. Handling it with class would have been so much better.

    Strangely, here in north Dublin, sirens are ringing out all round all of a sudden!

    McGregor will secretly be delighted with that sly dig, it'll more than cover his own court costs and then some.

    Those bums have no money.

    Anybody defending Khabib here needs a long hard look at thems loves. Imagine if Conor did the same.
