    Irish outnumbering russians over there and still gettin the **** beat out of them, embarrasing night

    Again, people believing hype.

    Connor paid out. Khabib's purse withheld and three of his corner arrested.

    Puts paid to the idea that Connor didn't get under his skin pre fight anyway!

    Ferguson repeating the same story about Conor at the weigh in seems a bit odd.

    Lol i thought my stream rewinded or something. He literally told the same exact story twice :pac:

    What a weird thing to be embarrassed by.

    I'm nearly sure he was joking.

    He wants the money can't blame him for that. He's fairly open about the fact he just wants to make money. Khabib got what 10x+ for show that Ferguson got that's a hell of a big difference!

    Down by 2 points in 3 rounds, would of been down another point if he wasn't submitted in the 4th.....thats not a close fight

    It's a 10 point must system. Just because the judges have it looking close doesn't mean it was close.

    He. Got. Mauled.

    He even got dropped by the wrestler with no hands*. Tonight he got humbled.




    *Khabib clearly knows how to throw a punch, he's dropped people before. This was hyperbolic for the sake of the nonsense I've read over the last few days.

    I am not embarrassed by a bunch of out of shape blokes getting beaten up on the other side of the world.

    I'm not sure why it is receving any airtime tbh.

    He was hammered indeed but feel like he was hammered in a wrestling match as opposed to a fight....Not sure if that makes sense..

    It's MMA not kickboxing. It's still a fight if you wrestle **** someone. Go down to your local MMA class and do a wrestling class you'll appreciate how difficult of an art is.

    Tony Ferguson is extreme torture

    Closer angle of the guys who jumped McGregor, bit choppy...

    I wonder will this have any impact on how McGregor builds up fights in the future. As one of Khabib's crew said to him before the fight "You will be made answer for your words"


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,238 ✭✭✭Ardennes1944


    Jesus Christ this guy Tony is a ****ing moron

    Well 3 of his crew are going to prison, so really they paid.

    Journalists stop asking Ferguson questions.

    You like the assholes who ask questions in the last 2 mins of class


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,393 ✭✭✭✭Mellor


    No. It wasn't under the chin but it was a fully locked in neck crank.

    Let me take your back and out in the RNC on your chin and you'll tap in about 4 seconds.

    And I'm a really bad blue belt.


    There's no early tap there. If he didn't tap he was either going to sleep it getting a broken jaw.
    100% agree
    And if you get the mouth open, you can compresses the jaw into the carotid and get the strangle on top.

    What did Conor do in the 3rd?

    Really.

    Nothing.
    He did very little in honesty. But more than Khabib. So it's his round. Khabibs greater damage prior doesn't affect the scores of the third.
    Scorecards?

    Jail*.

    Not prison. It's different.

    It won't one make bit of difference. It's promotion he really doesn't care if it upsets them.

    Dana has a statement by the looks of it.

    Oh wait no just the figures.

    Going on about how stylish you are whilst having the two buttons closed on your suit jacket

    I think the only fight left for him now is Diaz 3 and there's no real bad blood there

    Plus Khabib hasn't been paid...

    I think more people tapped out during Tony Ferguson's best man speech than did during the fighting.
