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

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?

Mr.1derful · « **Reply #14 on:** August 12, 2018, 03:49:34 PM »

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.
