No, don't think so at all. Honestly, Khabib lost his cool and made some stupid decisions that appear are going to come with a high price tag for his pals.

That's not what happened. Khabib was already fighting outside the cage by then

Right, but Khabib didn't attack Conor, Khabib's team weren't attacking Conor either until Conor punched one of them from the blind side when he couldn't defend himself. Conor doing Conor things and people doing logical back flips as usual.

If you ignore that part of the clip the other guy threw the first punch at McGregor

Will McGregor have to give some kind of interview / post match press conference ? Be interesting to hear him out the wrong side of the fight now

You are easily gaslit. The footage is taken AFTER Khabib had gone over the cage and his teamates were jumping in. But hey, knock yourself out.

I hope we finally get to see Ferguson vs Khabib now.
5th time's a charm.

Lads, please don't take the bait and reply to that fool.

Disclaimer: Zahabi is a Renzo Black Belt. Khabib regularly trains in Renzo's HQ in NYC.
Khabib has trained with TriStar fighters. Renzo's guys and Danis have a looong history.

That being said, the man has a point.
Dillon Danis is a low life.

Not being smart but Zahabi is hardline Islamist and that heavily biases his opinion here. He's not capable of looking at it objectively.

Danis was kicked out of Marcelo's for trash talking on social media. We know that, Marcelo explained it. Much of which is tongue-in-cheek and basically an attempt to promote himself.

The idea that this proves he's an 'intolerable' person and deserves a flying kick in the face is absurd. When a man jumps into a crowd feet-first the only person we need to be criticising is the man who jumped into the crowd feet-first.

Shush, we don't mention the incident.

That fight will never happen, it's cursed.

It's not up to him to take the law into his own hands.
That was a separate incident.

Cop yourself on

If you want to play the butterfly effect game you would be here all day.

Zahabi knows Danis personally, has done for years, and has dealth with his ****. The claim he's some borderline isis member is nonsense trying to distract from a man pretty much everyone in MMA would say is spot on giving an opinion about Conor's little pet.

Danis was finally kicked out of Marcelo's gym for being a disrespectful dick online. That's the final straw, not the only reason.


Danis isn't some innocent bystander here. He's a walking dumpster fire who got one of many slaps he has and will continue to get. Walking around telling one of the P4P best fighters on earth his family isn't safe because your sugar daddy doesn't like him, talking **** even after your sponsor just got man handled 5 feet from you and then ****ting your jocks when the man you threatened and talked **** to comes for you.

For all Conor's talk or Rats and cowards the fact that he has idiots like Danis and half of Crumlins worst canal algae in his camp is ridiculous.

Fair play to Conor though, he went in there and tried to back up his talk, got humbled and sat there and took his licks when Khabib finished him,but it's a humbling he built himself.

You are really taking this very seriously. :pac:

If you considered being chocked out, mauled, he was, but I think it takes much more for one fighter to have done to another to warrant saying that they were mauled by them, than what we saw there last night........ for two rounds Khabib had McGregor on his back and there was little in it. Khabib as getting nowhere and landed almost no significant strikes.

It's wasn't until McGrgeor started tiring that Khabib was able to take his back and chocke him out, same as the Diaz fight and so I would his cardio is still one of the biggest issues he has, not his strength or bjj skills, otherwise he would have been choked out not long after being taken down.

I'd certainly be interested in a rematch anyway, as I feel he fought in a way that played to Khabibs strengths and not his own. It was obvious from JK's comments between rounds that he didn't want him walking Khabib down the way he was.

Time as ever will tell I guess.

Did you miss the bit where Khabib literally knocked Conor on his arse with an overhand right?

I bet we all would, despite the disclaimers and disappointment right now.

Nothing beats a Conor McGregor thread for showing just how Irish people hate to see other Irish people do well
Its quiet sad

Trying to boil this down to begrudgery is pathetic. McGregor inspired hatred because he's a scumbag, not because he's successful. You don't see people going after Robbie Keane like this, because Keane is a decent human being.

McGregor could have done with Keane's waving arms this morning.

Just saw that twitter vid of brawls in the auditorium. That (Irish?) fan took a seriously bad punch. He was sparko before he hit the ground and his head took a severe hop off it. Hope he’s okay.

It knocked some sense into him if nothing else. With the recent rise of MMA and Boxing beginning to revive itself, every clown thinks he's Conor McGregor or Anthony Joshua and thinks he can fight and start a fight anywhere. Social media obviously isn't helping with lads being encouraged by the chance of ten seconds of fame on Twitter.

The amount of idiots starting fights on nights out now just so they act the maggot and think they're Conor or Floyd Mayweather for five minutes is embarrassing.
