so they agreed to fight.
who do you think will win?
-
Khabib via the same way he has beat everyone else in the game. Will a long, frustrating night for McGregor fans.
Also, no guarantee it happens yet. Khabib is a pull out merchant. I wont be surprised if he gets injured 4 weeks out and they have to postpone it. AKA guys are always getting injured, i wonder what stupid shit their S&C coaches have them doing.

some people like tj dillashaw thinks khabib is too slow for conor
-
Conor will crush him

conor via satanic influence.

Agree. It basically comes down to whether Conor can get back up after he gets taken down. I have to bet that he doesn’t have the skills to do so.
-
I hope Connor has been training his take down defense. I think he has a good chance of catching khabib coming in.
-
If cornor win, we then get to see GSP walk through him.

McGregor needs to be humbled, and he will be.

very hard to call here, khabib's boxing is not that great he gets hit easy, that being said if he gets connor down, he will keep him there. ufc is pulling for mcanal to win for sure. still the biggest fight they could make
is mcgregor vs st pierre. if khabib wins, he still wont be a big draw, hes got the personality of a rock. and all around piece of shit.

as a bodybuilding fan, i'd like to throw baroni into the mix

It will be interesting to see how quickly the ref stands them up if it goes to the ground.
-
hard to tell how much work conor done, its been 2 years since he last fought in mma
he used to fight 3 times a year
-
Does Conor even MMA?
-
Conor has no gas tank. Unless he gets an early knock out, he will get mauled.

Good point
Dillian White (Heavyweight Boxer) trains in the gym I use
And the crap nonsense his S&C coaches have him doing at times
Is no wonder he’s injured half the time.
I’ve called them out for what they’re doing & they can’t explain it,
Sadly Dillian no bright enough to move on.
-
I think if it stays standing for too long Conor will dismantle Khabib. Conor controls distance incredibly well and has great timing, plus a strong left hand for guys of that weight.
If Khabib is able to take Conor to the ground with relative ease from the start, then it will be a very long night for Conor, as Khabib will wear him down and make him carry him like a backpack for 4-5 rounds until Conor decides he has had enough.
I really want Khabib to win, as I like him as a fighter by way of his great wrestling/ground game and also due to his cool personality. But against a guy like Conor, I think you have to a stronger striking game. If Khabib had Max Holloway's standup, he would annihilate Conor.
Prediction: Conor via KO
"1"
-
That last fight Khabib didnt blast a fairly unknown dude and it went 5 rounds to a decision.
No doubt Conor's camp have watched that and seen the weakness that if Khabib cant take you down and keep you there he cant finish them standing up.
Conor via KO assuming he is trining properly and being smart tactic wise.

i dont know, people said khabib looked tired coming into the 3rd round against Al

I watched that fight, but can't remember off hand. I had thought that McGregor would have worked on his cardio more so prior to the Mayweather fight, but he gassed out pretty early.
-
Khabib was pretty disappointing in his last fight against a pretty new guy (Al Iaquinta), his standup game was awful(kept his chin up). In the fight before with Michael Johnson he had problems also with his chin after taking a shot. Khabib got rocked pretty good right away and it showed by his knees giving in.
That will be a huge problem against Conor because his striking has so much power and you can't hardly see them coming.
If Conor can connect it will be over for sure, right away. His boxing skills are now on a complete different level from his last fight against a world champion boxer and if he can work more on his take down defends and his wrestling, he has a great chance to take Khabib apart. We know Kh. is not a world class striker but his wresting is ridiculously good and will be his main weapon against C.
Just the build up with the New York bus incident makes this personal between the two and its going to be one of the greatest fights in history!.lol
My prediction: Conor wins by KO.

Conor's ground game is terrible. He has a lot of trouble getting out of being mounted and that's Khabib specialty. Conor is going to be exposed in this fight and will retire.

man i wouldnt go anywhere near as far as calling it terrible.
alvarez is a decent wrestler and conor stuffed all his shots and then threw him off like a ragdoll at one point. Previously to that we saw him willing go to the ground with a BJJ black belt in max holloway and was actually dominating him positionally. Eddie Bravo has had him at his gym and said emphatically that Conor's jitsu is much better than people give him credit for. I think theres this perception of him being bad on the ground because he basically gave Diaz the rear naked in a panic, but the wrinkle there is he was both exhausted and rocked by a great shot from diaz.
Of course, I'm still sticking with my pick of Khabib winning. Khabib pushes the pace constantly, is probably the best wrestler in the game right now, and we all know "notorious" McG has notoriously bad cardio issues that have shown little sign of improvement.
-
khabib will be destroyed mentally before the fight. his ego will have him trade blows with connor and then he will lose.
-
HAHAHA whats your point? He landed one blow that didn't faze Floyd! HAHAHAHAHA Bet you were one of the tribal tatted crew who said "DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Conor wins in his first ever boxing match against the unbeaten best boxer of the last 25 years DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
Go back to thinking your tough cos you have tribal tatts and lift weights
-
whats your point? He landed one blow that didn't faze Floyd!
the point is... ur looking at a pulled punch – nothing is on the up and up when it comes to conor.
-

Just look at that bloomin' neck!

lol bro, he is such a powerful puncher he couldn't stop a 40 year old man who is smaller than him from walking him down all night. Name a single top 20 boxer in that weight division that floyd wouldve employed a similar gameplan against. They dont exist because floyd would never be so reckless with someone who can actually drop bombs.
as someone who has done both sports, trust me, the smaller gloves make a hyooooooge difference. Theres a reason flash knockdowns happen so often in mma, and its certainly not because they're the better punchers. smaller gloves = more velocity/less drag and less padding.
-
even more obvious, is the set up. watch as floyd deliberately punches to conors shoulder, instead of the head, enabling for the crowd spurring 'close call' counter uppercut, lol... thats believable ::)
