Khabibs standing game was weak. He dominated with grappling but it is all he had. Though, it worked for him. Connor needs a lot of work on his grappling game.
@@mindsetist Khabib fucking smashed him in the face and knocked him down in what Conor supposed to be 'dominant' lol Khabib fucking destroyed your boy, and smashed him like he said he will. Conor talk shit before the fight and Khabib talked with him inside the cage while he was beating him, and after he finished smashing him as a winner of course Lol
Sting Ray 47 I’m a big mcgregor fan. But not a moron, Conor got dominated. Wasn’t showing his usual self, needs to work on his strategy and get his confidence back on the feet.
Hats off for this guy who's not afraid to say that conor's loss was partly because of HIS OWN mind set going into the training camp. That is how real men talk.
Jake Green stop chatting shit. He coached him through the ufc beating everyone and winning the 145 belt. He’s not overrated because someone is better than him. Is he only good coach when mcgregor is winning then?
Raymond Valentine Agreed. Kinda. He should go back down to 145 and regroup down there. Get back in the habit of being light on his feet and strategize better.
@callyharley Tyson Fury can. Let's not forget, he fought most of his fights after a year lay off. Now he's had comeback fights and knows the threat. McGregor fought the wrong fight from the opening bell.
That's what he should have done before he rushed into Khabibs fight. The guy took 2 years off from fighting in the UFC and he thinks he has the gas to handle a bear brawler. I hope Lesnar learned from this mistake before he fights DC.
Julian B I know this is a super late reply but I honestly think he’s kinda afraid to fight Nate again especially after coming off of 2 straight losses. I think Nate really surprised him both times they fought and he didn’t realize how tough it was gonna be to move up to his weight class.
He should stay on the legends tour. Fight Cowboy, Fight RDA, tease and duck masvidal. Diaz should duck conor. The legend tour is all about drumming up business. Its really not about the fights. Conor's shelf life as a top tier fighter is over. He may not have ever really had it based on the matchmaking. He was entertaining, but please stay on the legends tour.
So Nate gets his face destroyed in fight 2 and you think he should get fight 3? After doing nothing since that fight? You’re an idiot if your own argument can be used against you
BaronVonBielski what’s your problem? Take it easy. Take a big breath and cool it with the triggered outbursts. Connor V Nate 2 was real close, while Nate crushed him the first time, they should definitely fight again (sometime). Also, let me add I wrote this comment before the BMF-fight and Connor V Cerrone. The relative value of their stocks have changed and maybe I would reconsider if Nate deserves the fight right now. Maybe Connor V Masvidal for the BMF-belt would be a better fit now, and maybe if Connor loses, then the trilogy with Nate could be next. That being said, Connor DEFINITELY shouldn’t be considered for a rematch with Khabib yet.
@Elektro teufel ya I see your side but to make Conor money you have to be a shit talking asshole and prove it. And he did that enough long enough. He has made more than anyone else in the UFC. Its sells end of story.
he deserves a rematch, brings in too much revenue to not get one. Plus, he came back and beat Diaz. Looked like he wasn't in shape, no drinking for him.
I dislike Mcgreger whole team except this guy. He’s very smart and has a alot of knowledge about MMA. I really think allot of Connor success come from this man. Plus he is very humble
Conor isn't a bad guy either. When you see him lose he makes no excuses and has no fear of coming back for more. I don't like the way he talked to Khabib because he should have known what kind of man he was dealing with. Where Khabib comes from you will be killed for talking like that so Khabib took it personally. Khabib is a man of respect.
Alblooshi Conor is the same way. All the trash talk is to sell fights, there’s a reason Conor made over $50 million and Khabib got $2 million. Conor said it years ago, He’s cocky in his predictions, confident in his preparation, and humble in victory and defeat.
P B haha it came across that way but I think he was implying that McGregor thinks it’s time to fight Khabib again. “Khabib time” if you listen to it again you’ll get what I’m saying.
This man is the one who created the great conor. He is smart and he never fool conor to make him thing he is untouchable. If it wasn't for him i can guarantee that the conor khabib fight will have happened way before and conor will look even worse. The only reason he admitted its khabib time is because he knows there's nothing they could change to make conor become the victorious
Conor shouldn't fight Khabib again. He should take an easier fight that is winnable. Khabib is his kryptonite (maybe he's everybody's kryptonite) Conor simply cannot compete with his wrestling. At 155, I thought Lee had a shot but now he's going back to the prelims and Tony is getting super old and worn with all the damage he's taken.
im a connor fan, the fact is he got beat by a better fighter, i was disappointed at the time but khabib deserves the win and the belt. great fighter, great attitude to the sport, abit stupid for what he did but i understand why he did it. i hope he continues to keep winning, and hope connor keeps fighting too bcus although hes not the best fighter in the world, hes brought the game to a new level and no matter if he wins in 13 seconds or gets mauled to death its always an entertaining fight when mcgregors involved. hes still the greatest 145'er ever and for that ill always respect him, but honestly, he could fight khabib 10 times and i think unless he landed a lucky punch khabib would beat him 10 times out of 10.
It warms my heart reading mature shit like this. Like saying I'm aware I'm in love with a superhero but respect when a greater element arrives and simply wants both powers to grow and better themselves in the end.
@struggle luffy this is the internet dumbass. Everyone talks shit. Everyone is a keyboard warrior. What a pretentious idiot you are. How am I making Khabib look bad? Can you elaborate on that? You read into my reply too much.
To be honest Al did a decent job but he lost every round and it only went the distance because Khabib was toying with his “Ali” jab. At least Conor took a round off Khabib
XSENX 31 thanks for being respectful. im a muslim khabib fan but don’t think that we all hate conor, who doesn’t like him hes fucking hilarious. but with khabib he went to personal and attacking our religion is attacking all muslims around the world
Uzi Uzi mate that’s how wars start.. he was slagging off one guy and using whatever he could to get to him and that happens to be his religion. Religions give a lot to individuals and to society but using one mans anger and taking that anger and spreading it worldwide serves no one. CM looked like an idiot for what he said about your religion.
I don't think so. Imo their game plan was to not get tired and go into the later rounds. McGregors cardio was much improved. I don't think he thought he was going to get submitted. He underrated khabib in that aspect. I have no idea why. He really lacked tenacity in his striking my only assumption is that they trained for a lot of endurance and it cost him speed and power.
Omega Fury you sound like a bitter little bitch because your idol Conor got beat like a dog. Khabib is the champ and has beat everyone, don’t make it seem like he avoids people. He’s fought and won.
@Got Any Chicken What a dumb ass half-wit. This is MMA! You can torment and beat up people anywhere you want. Not Khabib's fault Conor does not know how to defend his takedowns. Go watch kickboxing, stupid. It's like saying every opponent Jon Jones and GSP faced deserved a rematch, because they decided to wrestle.
Got Any Chicken - khabib played by the rules. This isn't boxing... By MMA and UFC rules Khabib owns Conor. It is moronic to discuss what would happen in a boxing match...
hassan altabsh no, it’s called respect. I’m a fan of Khabib even though I love Conor’s fighting style. At the end of the day, if ur a true fight fan then you will enjoy & respect any fighter who fight. Yes, you have a bias towards particular fighters but you should respect any fighter who steps in a cage and risk their life
@@dushankaperera3334 It's hard to respect a fighter who has no regards for people's family, religion, country, hits elderly people, rapes, gets arrested for vandalism and felonies.
No real MMA fan wants to see that rematch anytime soon, only mindless Mcgregor stans. There needs to be some logical sense & fairness to the fighters, it can't all be about money. Conor has been out of the UFC for awhile and has barely fought any LWs. Ferguson vs Khabib is the next fight to make.
Pls get a lil bit knowledge of the mma then come back, you came with excuse, Conor have been trained for this fight almost for all he's life, he knew that, and in end still khabib is real champ no doubt about that
Idk man I watch as many fights as I can and i agree it would be unfair to the division but man id he a liar if I said I wouldn’t enjoy seeing Conor get mauled like that again..
Ferguson almost got smoked? He had a higher strike percentage, more strikes landed, had him backing up for two rounds, won both rounds and did this immediately coming off an injury. Ferguson is a beast..
Joe kinda disappointed you didn't bring up any of the cheating that happened. Like wtf is wrong with Herb Dean any other fighter wouldn't happened. It's crap like this makes it seem McGregor is being protected by UFC
Agree 💯...herb Dean seems to be slow on the uptake...even the other fight where he let a guy get battered for a few mins straight...herb was considered the best ref but this fight showed he is very very lenient...can't blame khabib for being annoyed
it happens literally everyday.. it's nothing new at all fighters bend the rules all the time you clearly don't watch a lot of fighting. Muhammad Ali did it when he was about to suffer his first loss after being knocked down, no one really cares dude. Ferguson threw an illegal kick against barboza in a scramble. It's when you have repeated eye pokes and intentional groin strikes and punches after rounds. That's very different
@@theboizee6606 I'm old been watching fights for a very long time. I agree fighters will break rules while refs enforce the rules. My argument was for this fight Herb did a bad job
How frequent it happens has nothing to do with it. Rules are there for a reason. The referees should be enforcing them in the first instance. Mistake or not. Fighters would think twice then wouldnt they. That knee on the ground, Conor should have had a point taken there and then. You can't punish one fighter and let the next get away with it. What if that had knocked khabib out or even dazed him. Should be no tolerance for it what so ever.
Conor vs. Khabib is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. As a die hard Conor fan, I was sore when he lost, but I had a very strong feeling going into it that Khabib was going to dominate that fight. While I hope Conor continues to fight, a rematch is just not it. He was outclassed the entire fight.
No rematch. We’re not interested, he got smeshed. And it wasn’t the fact they were “too defensive” that his shots didn’t land, it was because Khabibs ability to maintain distance was sharp as a razor.
And Connor's was not in the 3rd round, that seemed pretty clear to me. Also, who do you wanna see Khabib fight next? Connor looked good to me out there, a lot better than Ferguson did in his fight. I can really only see Khabib fighting 2 guys: Connor or GSP. If the weight for GSP is too much, then it has to be Connor.
Exactly I noticed that Khabib wasn't biting on the traps that Conor was trying to set. Khabib was actually trying to draw out Conors left counter and then when catch Conor on the return when he wasn't expecting
Khabib isn't Conor. He doesn't give a damn about what fight will. Be the biggest.. Do you think he cares enough about Conor to give him another shot after that beating he put on him? Nope, khabib will want the next rightful guy and that's Tony. Sorry Conor fans but he got smooshed and khabib is over it.
UFC 229 was the best Bang for the Buck MMA fans received this weekend! Khabib gave us Three Finishes for the price of one. Dropped, GNP, and Submitted Conor all in one Fight! What a bargain! 😂
Coach - "When Tyson Fury was coming back they gave him not the toughest guy in the world" Joe - "That shit doesn't happen in MMA" Coach - "Specifically in UFC". well, this doesn't aged very well for Connor..
Khabib beat Conor every second of the fight, even on the feet. Absolutely no reason for a second fight, and I'm saying that as someone who wanted Conor to win
Omega you need you need to stop talking cause its clear you know nothing about the sport and its obvious you need to go back yo school like immediately
Stats and eyes show that Conor clearly outlander him in the 3rd. As off as Conor was and as om-point as Khabib was, there is no way Khabib would beat him if the entire fight was standing.
Conor panics when he’s on the ground. In this fight he was trying all of these illegal tactics to get back up and in the Mendes fight he kept telling the ref to stand them back up.
He def didn’t panic in the Mendes fight. He seemed fearless the entire fight. In this one he looked like he submitted during the second fight. He was also looking for glove touches during the start of rounds after the first like he was trying to make the fight less personal so he could take less of a beating.
You can make 10 rematches if you wish, but unfortunately for Conor the outcome will always be the same! Khabib vs Tony is the fight that has to happen! This time I totally agree with Joe
The turd round was promising because Khabib allowed Conor to stand.😊 He rightly believed that Conor’s power had diminished at that point. The damage was done, and I am an Irish Conor fan..
I love Conor but holy fuck bud, fight someone else and kinda get your feet back in the water before you go after Khabib again lmao. I understand he has a lot to live up to because of the way he talks but at the very least take some time...
Not only take his time but prove himself again. If it were upto Joe and other commentators he would be fighting next week against the best and most lucrative but the hyper train is over. Maybe Conor wants to get his last couple big pay checks and UFC is game. Thats all there is left for conor. I predict he will never make his way back to a title shot if made to go through the system like the others.
I just want to say first, i enjoyed the fight i was rooting more for khabib, but still skeptical. I think what bothers me about the ufc is that fans (at least the ones at this event) expect a knockout when they forget this is mma. Dont get me wrong i enjoy a good brawl & knockout, but cmon. Every single time khabib did wrestling they just boo at him
Exactly...they should watch boxing or kick boxing then...what is even funnier Conor fans were saying if this was MMA Floyd be fooked...yet in MMA diss wrestlers and want stand up...
i agree he does not deserve a rematch and he should fight the winner of nate vs porior but joe saying it would be difficult to sell is just not true if ufc booked mcgregor vs khabib for december or ferguson vs khabib for december we all know the mcgregor vs khabib would still sell more than any other fighter vs khabib, he does not deserve it because he got destroyed but it would still sell more than ferguson who does deserve it
Depending of the sanction, if Khabib is out for 9+ month, conor will fight tony for the interim and the winner will Khabib, if not, Dana will definitly book an immediate rematch, with all that chaos at the end, promotion will generate tons of millions
Who gives a shit about braindead bandwagons and cock raging kids wanting the see another beat down as the main event, the best and second best fighter are the ones that should compete for the belt, not the money hoe tapper.
I guess doing illegal moves is part of the training as well? "slow clap" I barely watch UFC and even I was able to spot like at least 10 times when he broke the rules. Everyone must be blind or just busy counting money.
Still smashed mcgregor and got the bitch to tapout that will never be forgotten the fight was tbe fight result wont change even if the press tries its hardest to make it seem hollow or tainted
Conor and his fans were talking about the ko but their dad got fucked in the ass for 20 mins then his team got fucked so the fans ass is also paining after remembering the fight😂😂😂
Khabib did start this shit fucking khabib bandwagoner. Khabib slapped Artem which started the whole contact altercation thus which made Mcgregor went after Khabib in the bus.
m smith yes he deserved it. Did you not see him throw the first punch whole he was climbing the fence. Khabib's cousin was on the fence not even looking at Conor and Conor threw 2 lefts at him. So Yea he deserved it. If he had sat on his ass where khabib left him then NO ONE would have attacked him lol
Tony has to get his shot at khabib. It just has to happen and hopefully khabib doesn’t sit on his throne like most after a big fight. For me 30-0 is a good number. Tony-Connor2- Brian Ortega or max or something. Don’t forget though, if it makes money it makes sense and that’s just how the world works.
Conor fooled everybody... He made people believe he actually stood a chance against Khabib. He took a beating and gladly cashed in on $50 million. With out a doubt he's the biggest winner that evening. He understands the game better than anyone that's why they all wanna be him.
The $3 million is prize money alone. That's nothing compared to what he makes combined from ppv, percentage of the gate, sponsorship and co-ownership. Me made $50 million easy. He fooled everybody and everybody is butthurt about it 😂
It was NOT "a more offensive strategy" that did not win the fight for Conor. Khabib didn't give him the chance to be offensive. Khabib is in a higher class than Conor!
Ok I am a huge fan of Khabib's. Conor did quite well better than most of the fighters that Khabib defeated in a compete dominant fashion. In the third round, Conor did well against Khabib's wrestling and arguably won that round. Khabib hasnt really lost a round in this pro career. I think a rematch would still sell pretty well. Yes, I don't like the fact Conor talked about others family and religion. However, Conor is a true fighter. I like the fact he didn't really care about aftermath melee. At the end of the day, no one really got seriously injured and shits sometimes happen cos it's a fight business. Conor def knows how to take not just how to give. Props to him on that.
John2corner Connor was cheating the whole time. Khabib dominated ever second of that fight. If Connor wants a rematch, it’s not because he thinks he can win... it’s because he would get another huge payday.
Such a great coach. People can say all they want about Conor but he always wants to fight the best fighters in the world, no one else, and always shows up on fight day no matter what. Can't say the same about everyone else.
xX Kh4lis Xx nah bro this mma ain’t no guarantees, Connor could catch him with one punch and it’s all over and khabib could also just maul him, but you never know.
I was actually impressed with Conor in the first round, he looked very calm and relaxed while he was on his back and didn't waste his energy by trying to explode back to his feet. When the second round started he should have been more switched on but after he got caught with that right it completely changed the narrative of the fight which led to the submission. Would definitely be interested in a rematch but I think Conor should fight Ferguson and then the winner of that gets Khabib.
Im 3yrs late but help me explain how that insignificant overhand right “Change the narrative of the fight“. Khabib feinted for a td. Connor reacted and started to move the overhand right connects but doesnt nothing. I know and say this because in previous fights anytime Khabib lands at overhead right he rushes in with a flying knee. Conors but didnt ever actually hit the canvas. Essentially conor drops to one knee & evaded Khabibs knee. Lands one of his own and they keep trading until a few moments later when Khabib gets another td.
I gotta say, I picked Conor to win & I knew it was a huge possibility that he would get Conor down & maul him, but seeing it go down the way it did was still socking to me. He totally dominated Conor, & even dropped him on the feet. I was very impressed by Khabib's performance, nothing but respect for the man. He truly is the best Lightweight on the planet. Nothing but respect to both guys.
Joe Rogan should take over Dana Whites position.Dana is so obvious on Mcgregors side. It stinks!!!!!! And ppl starting too get tired of Ufc because of it,myself included.
Conor is the only draw they got in the company working full time. Ronda gone. Brock has 1 maybe 2 more in him. Jones can't stop doing cocaine. Conor is the cash cow. It's a business. If you don't like it, start your own company, promote solely on the "sweet science" and watch how empty your venues will be forever
@@randylynch4330 if you think 1 fight in the UFC is full-time then I have no words. By the way, if we look over the overall money, the UFC made more money in its history over those 2 years of Conors absence...as stated by Dana white.
That would be a great fight. Same with tony or woodley. Mcgregor shouldnt be fighting these bigger guys anyways. It's been a bit of a scam/luck show getting in the way of making better fights.
Khabib calls out a welterweight/middleweight and tells him to come to 155 in a class gsp has never fought in. If khabib wants st Pierre he should go up in weight. Hes the one calling gsp out
@@kevinjurkiewicz9557 I know what Conor did was wrong and I hope he can find treatment for his anger issues, and I know thats not the real Conor, Conor post fights is very peaceful and respectful and just serene and calm. He carried his grandpas hat around until it was stolen. He'll be back
🤔🤔😂😂😂😂YES CONOR BLOCKED EVERY PUNCH WITH HIS HEAD THIS IS Á VERY TECHNICAL THING TO DO THAT THEY WORKED IN TRAINING.ALSO THE TAP WAS SO BEAUTIFUL....HE MUST BE PROUD 😂😂😂😂
Kelvin Torres yes you can lol. It's a business. Conor brings in the most money. And regardless of what some ppl may say or think. Everyone wants to see him fight.
Exactly. Won two belts, never defends shit. All you people who rides Connors dick and talk about money are not true mma fans. What happen to being the best. Look at Tony 11 fight win streak and still no respect.
Walter Atkinson lol grow up kid. It's still a business. You wanna watch who'd the best go to your sons karate tournament or something. I'm only saying this cause you should know that by know. Sports are all corrupt. Wakey wakey
Agree , if he won khabib wouldn’t get a rematch or anything I am even willing to bet that if connor won he would b gone again for who knows how long and maybe shoot for a boxing rematch. There’s not many fights that interest him.
"I was too defensive" -- that's exactly what I thought while watching the fight. Conor should have came in headhunting, understanding that he's gonna get taken down and he just needs to do major damage before that happens. Khabib plowed right thru ALL of conor's defense.
Skyrocket888 so you’re saying no one deserves a rematch vs Khabib? Cause he has dominated all his fights soon he’ll run out of opponents there has to rematches
jeffreymmorse There’s still Tony Ferguson and Gaethje and He’s retiring soon anyways. Saying Conor deserves another title shot if he wins against a Cerrone on a losing streak is like saying CM Punk deserves a rematch vs Mickey Gall.
Well, that is what Khabib does. The threat of his takedown is such a big deal. Also, Khabib has always been berated for his striking defense. He keeps his right hand up next to his chin and uses sight to avoid strikes just like a semi philly shell. I truly believe only a grappler can beat Khabib's style. Conor will not a have punchers chance against a lifelong martial artist in Khabib. Khabib was groomed to be a fucking savage in MMA. I like it. 😂
I find Conor most likeable when he speaks like coach Kavanaugh. Analytical, calculated, and like a true martial artist. You see this after his defeats and during less publicized interviews.
Offensive pace or not in the rematch, Khabib would still pick him up every time Conor got close. The only difference than the original fight is that it would probabily happen more often because Conor would be on the offense and kept coming closer. Its ridiculous they didnt bring anyone new for wrestling or perhaps even better, someone elite BBJ, f+ck wrestling. Make Conor an elite BJJ mofo and when Khabib does his wrestling bear nonsense Conor should attack on the ground. Make Khabib fear him on the ground like everyone fears Werdum, Maia or Fitch, make BJJ more than wrestling. Or FFS get someone like GSP to train with Conor, nobody, not even THE best wrestlers could take GSP down, Conor needs someone like that. Or Cro Cop, his muaythai was next lvl, every time someone came shooting for takedown they got a knee or something. Not effin Dildo Danis.
'something was off'....conor didn't expect khabib to go standing toe to toe and take conor's strength was now hes confused whether to focus on defending take downs or block khabib's jabs....but with all the credit khabib has alot of game plans...people underestimate how sharp and fast khabib is and he closes the gap/range so quickly... the guy is a beast his grappling and wrestling is top notch
I honestly don't think that Connor will ever beat up Khabib. Khabib has a lifetime of grappling, a lifetime of strict discipline, and has the will power and mindset of a warrior. These are all things Connor doesn't have
Eiraj Sharar wrong everyone wants to see him talk shit that's why he sells sells sells biggest box office ever? Lots of people first time watcher just for Connor shit talk
One of the things that really intrigued me in this fight, and I'm no MMA expert or anything, is how Conor didn't maintain his distance that well like he usually does. He's almost always fighting orthodox fighters and coaxes them into throwing the overhand which ultimately misses and he then lands the left hand. In this one however, he abandoned his usual touches with his right hand to gauge distance and got caught by Khabib's overhand which is his signature dodge that culminates into a left hand. Perhaps all that lends credence to the fact that Conor's camp focused mainly on grappling defense for this fight and as a result, in a way, you might say underestimated Khabib's striking or the fact that he might strike whereas Khabib's team seems to have kept this in mind which is why he was able to strike and land the knockdown shot. Just my opinion. Edit: Perhaps this just proves Kavangh's claim that they focused mostly on defense. It was definitely weird how Conor didn't maintain an arm's length like he usually does with other opponents where he's just out of range for them to think they can land but graze past his chin for him to land the left hand.
Im only just seeing this comment but I 110% agree and have said this myself countless times. Everything about Conor in this fight was off. I can also agree that Conor definitely underestimated khabibs striking capability. Not to say he is as good as Conor cus that is far from the truth. Nonetheless Conor did great in this fight & after rewatching it countless times ai can say he did not get mauled like every other bonehead online claims.
NO BRO YO UARE IN DENIAL, KHABIB TOOK HIM DOWN and DID LITERALLY NOTHING IN THE 1st ROUND....THE 2ND ROUND turned around when khabib caught him with that right hand.....and still did better than ALL OTHER FIGHTERS that khabib faced before...and he won the 3rd round, WHICH NOONE WAS EVER ABLE TO DO AFTER BEING BEAT OF ON THE FLOOR....so STFU
Can you imagine after getting hammer fisted in the face many times over and almost getting your neck broken from a guy who really wants to hurt you, to immediately wanting a rematch. These guys are as tough as they come. Geez.
You got tough confused with stupidity and arragonce. There is no way there should be a rematch, khabib completely dominated McGregor a rematch would be a fucking insult to the game.
@@metaliris6404 yea but stupidity is not the case here. People said the exact same thing about his quick loss against Diaz, his next fight was a straight rematch and he not only didn't give up his back this time, he survived 5 rounds 2 weight classes higher than the weight he was a champion it, he's a natural light weight, anything lower or especially higher is difficult for him, and he won it. I'm not saying it will be the same here, Khabib is a beast on the ground but the best fighters won't shy away from putting themselves in uncomfortable situations and if they loose? Loss is the best teacher, that's it.
@@Podcir are you really comparing the Diaz fight to this one? They're a completely different league, even in the first fight with Diaz Conor dropped him a few times and connected a lot. The fight with khabib was so one sided it was almost scary. I see the point your trying to make but it's a lost comparison dude? Yeah Conor did much better in the second Diaz fight but again there should be NO rematch not for a while anyway because it was PURE domination on khabibs side.
Rematch??? Why the hell would that happen. They guy just got completely and utterly dominated by a far far superior fighter. This isnt a Brexit vote remoaner lobby of a 2nd referendum.... Connor got humiliated, got totally owned, got punched to the floor, got thrown like a rag doll and then HIMSELF giving up...sorry, tapping out, as he had no other option. The top dog is Khab, CM got taken to school, and as such now goes right to the back of the line. You CANNOT beg for a ‘redemption rematch’ because of all the utter diatribe of smack talk and insults just because it backfired on you. NOBODY wants to see CM getting that hurt again. Khab has NOTHING left to prove, he wins.
callyharley He had been out for two years and thats why he lost. 3-1 is a dominating performance that included a knock down, thrown on his back as Khab always does (wasnt able to stop that was he) and used his superb groundwork (which the last time i checked is still part of MMA) to control him on the deck, at one stage turning his face into a pancake and then choke him into submission. ‘Dominated’ “To control, to rule over, to command” At no stage did CM look like winning, his left was neutralised and his body kicks barely able to give Khab any cause for thought. He dominated him.
callyharley And i completely agree, but one round out of 4 is a 25% ratio. Whether he was rusty or not, he was mauled on the ground, was knocked off his feet and failed to land any telling blows. And the choke is a perfectly valid and well used tool that CM had no answer for. He was dominated.
callyharley Fan boys? Are you that easily triggered?? Here are the facts that CM experienced.... Punched off his feet. Pummelled on the floor. Had a zero ground plan, was dominated there too. Tapped out after said domination. Lost the fight. The truth doesnt care whether you agree with it or not. I think you are either new to this sport or are young, but if you think groundwork is boring then you have dismissed judo and jujitsu. You have no idea of who the Gracies were either. Groundwork is one of the most important aspects of MMA in the modern era, how many ko’s come by someone pummelling another while he/she is on the ground? Exactly....LOTS. As someone like myself who watches with a balanced attitude, Khab was his usual self, he neutralised CM biggest weapon, his left, by keeping out of range, balance and movement. CM had no answer to it, why? Because he not only was facing the no.1 fighter in that division but was just coming off of a 2 year lay off. He got his ass handed to him and made all the pre-fight talk embarrass him. I dont care what one persons opinion is of the result as the result speaks for itself, no excuses... One guy was the far superior. If you ever had doubts over CM making this fight then you should of told him yourself. He’s a big boy, he made the choice to fight but was given a beaten. No excuses needed
Dj Tzonev McGregor is a great fighter....he is just shallow. Put it like this.......Conor is as deep as a lake.....Khabib is as deep as the deepest Ocean. When shit gets real hard.... McTapper shows up.
This guys is so well-spoken and seems respectful. Makes me think that Conor isn't actually as big of a jerk as he comes across, just an act and he really is just putting on a show to make that $$$. That was a great fight, wish there wasn't as much WWE antics and more of purely skilled fighting.
I hope there is a rematch. Just so that UFC would be what it used to be with fighters earning their fights through rankings. When Conor loses again to Khabib he won't be able to fight for a title for a while until he earns it like every other fighter.
@@MrSamuel539 Yeah but then he got his ass beat by Cain and Overeem which killed his hype. The same happened to Ronda when she got her ass beat by Holly and Nunez
Kavanagh is one of the best coaches in the business, very cool and honorable both in victory and defeat. And he is right that their training camp focused more on defence rather than on offence as evidenced by what went down. That said, an adjustment in their training focus could have the contest more competitive. But I seriously doubt it if the result would be any different. Of course, Conor's ego would ensure an immediate rematch. It will surely be bigger in terms of PPV and live audience. More profit for the UFC. But in that match, he will really be humbled and his face really "smeshed."
Dominik cruz: "I love the way conor is using his cheek bones to stop khabibs punches joe, he is tiring him up, he is a master strategist."
Khabibs standing game was weak. He dominated with grappling but it is all he had. Though, it worked for him. Connor needs a lot of work on his grappling game.
@@mindsetist what in the fuuuck
@@mindsetist Khabib fucking smashed him in the face and knocked him down in what Conor supposed to be 'dominant' lol Khabib fucking destroyed your boy, and smashed him like he said he will. Conor talk shit before the fight and Khabib talked with him inside the cage while he was beating him, and after he finished smashing him as a winner of course Lol
Sting Ray 47 I’m a big mcgregor fan. But not a moron, Conor got dominated. Wasn’t showing his usual self, needs to work on his strategy and get his confidence back on the feet.
@@daniloivanovic5961 i
Hats off for this guy who's not afraid to say that conor's loss was partly because of HIS OWN mind set going into the training camp. That is how real men talk.
You mean, taking some of the blame away from Connor just being a worse fighter than Khabib?
well he is not gonna say _hey I'm not the best trainer and Connor is not the best fighter_
No a real man would say khabib is better
John is so conscious. Admire the guy a lot
Ah yes, real men and fake men. Actual delineation for sure.

I think Conor should fight a few bums then come back and fight Khabib rather than getting the rematch straight away.
Raymond Valentine Agreed. Kinda. He should go back down to 145 and regroup down there. Get back in the habit of being light on his feet and strategize better.
@callyharley Tyson Fury can. Let's not forget, he fought most of his fights after a year lay off. Now he's had comeback fights and knows the threat.
McGregor fought the wrong fight from the opening bell.
I agree he should go Patrick Bateman on some homeless in the streets of Dublin and return full form
That's what he should have done before he rushed into Khabibs fight. The guy took 2 years off from fighting in the UFC and he thinks he has the gas to handle a bear brawler. I hope Lesnar learned from this mistake before he fights DC.
Get out of here with that boxing shit. We don't do that in MMA, the best fight the best. GSP came back after 4 years and fought the MW champ and won
Conor obviously shouldn't get an instant rematch after that mauling. So, he should obviously do the trilogy with Nate.
Julian B I know this is a super late reply but I honestly think he’s kinda afraid to fight Nate again especially after coming off of 2 straight losses. I think Nate really surprised him both times they fought and he didn’t realize how tough it was gonna be to move up to his weight class.
@Ry G he beat him ? 😂
He should stay on the legends tour. Fight Cowboy, Fight RDA, tease and duck masvidal. Diaz should duck conor. The legend tour is all about drumming up business. Its really not about the fights. Conor's shelf life as a top tier fighter is over. He may not have ever really had it based on the matchmaking. He was entertaining, but please stay on the legends tour.
So Nate gets his face destroyed in fight 2 and you think he should get fight 3? After doing nothing since that fight? You’re an idiot if your own argument can be used against you
BaronVonBielski what’s your problem? Take it easy. Take a big breath and cool it with the triggered outbursts. Connor V Nate 2 was real close, while Nate crushed him the first time, they should definitely fight again (sometime). Also, let me add I wrote this comment before the BMF-fight and Connor V Cerrone. The relative value of their stocks have changed and maybe I would reconsider if Nate deserves the fight right now. Maybe Connor V Masvidal for the BMF-belt would be a better fit now, and maybe if Connor loses, then the trilogy with Nate could be next. That being said, Connor DEFINITELY shouldn’t be considered for a rematch with Khabib yet.
Coach kavanagh is such a respectful and smart dude.
Elektro teufel he actually does with ppl he's not fighting.
His other BJJ team mate Dillon Danis is a fucking nobody who thinks he is better than Khabib LOL
Elektro teufel opinions are like ass holes everyone has one.
too bad he is under investigation in the US
@Elektro teufel ya I see your side but to make Conor money you have to be a shit talking asshole and prove it. And he did that enough long enough. He has made more than anyone else in the UFC. Its sells end of story.
He does not deserve a rematch. He got mauled!! Tony vs Khabib and Nate Diaz vs Conor Mcgregor on the same fight card

@@jeffdingleberry1632 I thought all the casual conman mctapper fans where hiding. Good to see not all the parasites are gone
he deserves a rematch, brings in too much revenue to not get one. Plus, he came back and beat Diaz. Looked like he wasn't in shape, no drinking for him.
Love how John smiles when he's talking about the sport. His passion oozes through with his words and expressions. Would pay to listen to him talk MMA.
This coach is a credit to himself and the sport. So measured respectful and knowledgeable.
I dislike Mcgreger whole team except this guy. He’s very smart and has a alot of knowledge about MMA. I really think allot of Connor success come from this man. Plus he is very humble
Alblooshi owen roddy?
Why do you not like Owen Roddy? Are you thick in the head?
I'm guessing you don't actually know anyone else in mcgregor's team. Most of them are humble and kick back. Even Conor is, when hes not in character.
Conor isn't a bad guy either. When you see him lose he makes no excuses and has no fear of coming back for more. I don't like the way he talked to Khabib because he should have known what kind of man he was dealing with. Where Khabib comes from you will be killed for talking like that so Khabib took it personally. Khabib is a man of respect.
Alblooshi Conor is the same way. All the trash talk is to sell fights, there’s a reason Conor made over $50 million and Khabib got $2 million. Conor said it years ago, He’s cocky in his predictions, confident in his preparation, and humble in victory and defeat.
TONY VS KHABIB IS THE FIGHT TO MAKE!!!
Tony vs connor 1st. Winner gets khabib.
@@BEAST-di8xo Ye let Tony get some money too
That just doesn't sound like a good matchup. Tony has the stamina, but he is too weak to handle Khabib's strength on the ground.
Agreed! I think Tony can beat Khabib too. He's one of the best off of his back. Regardless, it'll be interesting and competitive.
Khabib will destroy Tony. Conor will destroy Tony. He's a distant 3rd.
Kavanagh said “Khabib Time” at 9:22
McGregors be like: book my re-match !!

Hahahahahah
God ur cringey
Did I hear Conor’s coach actually say “it’s Khabib time “? Ouch😫
P B haha it came across that way but I think he was implying that McGregor thinks it’s time to fight Khabib again. “Khabib time”
if you listen to it again you’ll get what I’m saying.
Hoodie Harrelson I see what you mean. It could also be a Freudian slip.
This man is the one who created the great conor. He is smart and he never fool conor to make him thing he is untouchable. If it wasn't for him i can guarantee that the conor khabib fight will have happened way before and conor will look even worse.
The only reason he admitted its khabib time is because he knows there's nothing they could change to make conor become the victorious
Conor shouldn't fight Khabib again. He should take an easier fight that is winnable. Khabib is his kryptonite (maybe he's everybody's kryptonite) Conor simply cannot compete with his wrestling.
At 155, I thought Lee had a shot but now he's going back to the prelims and Tony is getting super old and worn with all the damage he's taken.
@Super FURIOUS Gamer still defending that douche is unbelieveable
im a connor fan, the fact is he got beat by a better fighter, i was disappointed at the time but khabib deserves the win and the belt. great fighter, great attitude to the sport, abit stupid for what he did but i understand why he did it. i hope he continues to keep winning, and hope connor keeps fighting too bcus although hes not the best fighter in the world, hes brought the game to a new level and no matter if he wins in 13 seconds or gets mauled to death its always an entertaining fight when mcgregors involved. hes still the greatest 145'er ever and for that ill always respect him, but honestly, he could fight khabib 10 times and i think unless he landed a lucky punch khabib would beat him 10 times out of 10.
Stop starting shit with " im a connor fan " and then making all kid suck up comments about khabib .
No one is buying it.
It warms my heart reading mature shit like this. Like saying I'm aware I'm in love with a superhero but respect when a greater element arrives and simply wants both powers to grow and better themselves in the end.

Yeah calling for a rematch the day after is something you do when you're afraid, idiot!
I don't think so. Imo their game plan was to not get tired and go into the later rounds. McGregors cardio was much improved. I don't think he thought he was going to get submitted. He underrated khabib in that aspect. I have no idea why. He really lacked tenacity in his striking my only assumption is that they trained for a lot of endurance and it cost him speed and power.
Lolz, how are people still hanging on his nuts
Omega Fury you sound like a bitter little bitch because your idol Conor got beat like a dog. Khabib is the champ and has beat everyone, don’t make it seem like he avoids people. He’s fought and won.
Dont be silly
No point of a rematch, that was a one sided ass whooping!
Dripper 46 Nigga UFC is a business do u get it?
@Got Any Chicken What a dumb ass half-wit. This is MMA! You can torment and beat up people anywhere you want. Not Khabib's fault Conor does not know how to defend his takedowns. Go watch kickboxing, stupid. It's like saying every opponent Jon Jones and GSP faced deserved a rematch, because they decided to wrestle.

No real MMA fan wants to see that rematch anytime soon, only mindless Mcgregor stans. There needs to be some logical sense & fairness to the fighters, it can't all be about money. Conor has been out of the UFC for awhile and has barely fought any LWs. Ferguson vs Khabib is the next fight to make.
Pls get a lil bit knowledge of the mma then come back, you came with excuse, Conor have been trained for this fight almost for all he's life, he knew that, and in end still khabib is real champ no doubt about that
Idk man I watch as many fights as I can and i agree it would be unfair to the division but man id he a liar if I said I wouldn’t enjoy seeing Conor get mauled like that again..
Ferguson nearly got smoked by Anthony Pettis tho......
Ferguson almost got smoked? He had a higher strike percentage, more strikes landed, had him backing up for two rounds, won both rounds and did this immediately coming off an injury. Ferguson is a beast..
Exactly thank you
Joe kinda disappointed you didn't bring up any of the cheating that happened. Like wtf is wrong with Herb Dean any other fighter wouldn't happened. It's crap like this makes it seem McGregor is being protected by UFC
Agree 💯...herb Dean seems to be slow on the uptake...even the other fight where he let a guy get battered for a few mins straight...herb was considered the best ref but this fight showed he is very very lenient...can't blame khabib for being annoyed
it happens literally everyday.. it's nothing new at all fighters bend the rules all the time you clearly don't watch a lot of fighting. Muhammad Ali did it when he was about to suffer his first loss after being knocked down, no one really cares dude. Ferguson threw an illegal kick against barboza in a scramble. It's when you have repeated eye pokes and intentional groin strikes and punches after rounds. That's very different
ufc fights aren't everyday. @.@
@@theboizee6606 I'm old been watching fights for a very long time. I agree fighters will break rules while refs enforce the rules. My argument was for this fight Herb did a bad job
How frequent it happens has nothing to do with it. Rules are there for a reason. The referees should be enforcing them in the first instance. Mistake or not. Fighters would think twice then wouldnt they. That knee on the ground, Conor should have had a point taken there and then. You can't punish one fighter and let the next get away with it. What if that had knocked khabib out or even dazed him. Should be no tolerance for it what so ever.
Conor vs. Khabib is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. As a die hard Conor fan, I was sore when he lost, but I had a very strong feeling going into it that Khabib was going to dominate that fight. While I hope Conor continues to fight, a rematch is just not it. He was outclassed the entire fight.
What an awesome person Conor's Coach is. He gave credit where credit was due and didn't speak badly about Khabib.
No rematch. We’re not interested, he got smeshed. And it wasn’t the fact they were “too defensive” that his shots didn’t land, it was because Khabibs ability to maintain distance was sharp as a razor.
So, no rematch because.. you guys are not interested? Who are you again? Dirty Needlez? LOL!! :D :D :D So significant.
And Connor's was not in the 3rd round, that seemed pretty clear to me.
Also, who do you wanna see Khabib fight next? Connor looked good to me out there, a lot better than Ferguson did in his fight. I can really only see Khabib fighting 2 guys: Connor or GSP. If the weight for GSP is too much, then it has to be Connor.
Exactly I noticed that Khabib wasn't biting on the traps that Conor was trying to set. Khabib was actually trying to draw out Conors left counter and then when catch Conor on the return when he wasn't expecting
Dirty Needlez shut up
Khabib isn't Conor. He doesn't give a damn about what fight will. Be the biggest.. Do you think he cares enough about Conor to give him another shot after that beating he put on him? Nope, khabib will want the next rightful guy and that's Tony. Sorry Conor fans but he got smooshed and khabib is over it.

Stats and eyes show that Conor clearly outlander him in the 3rd. As off as Conor was and as om-point as Khabib was, there is no way Khabib would beat him if the entire fight was standing.
You clearly did not watch the fight then. Conor won round 3
There are millions of reasons for a rematch. These guys fight for money.
Conor panics when he’s on the ground. In this fight he was trying all of these illegal tactics to get back up and in the Mendes fight he kept telling the ref to stand them back up.
Spike Spiegel No, Mendes kept putting his fingers in Conor‘s eyes and open wound.
He def didn’t panic in the Mendes fight. He seemed fearless the entire fight. In this one he looked like he submitted during the second fight. He was also looking for glove touches during the start of rounds after the first like he was trying to make the fight less personal so he could take less of a beating.
You can make 10 rematches if you wish, but unfortunately for Conor the outcome will always be the same!
Khabib vs Tony is the fight that has to happen!
This time I totally agree with Joe
What a Gentleman. If only McChicken was humble like his coach.

Not only take his time but prove himself again. If it were upto Joe and other commentators he would be fighting next week against the best and most lucrative but the hyper train is over. Maybe Conor wants to get his last couple big pay checks and UFC is game. Thats all there is left for conor. I predict he will never make his way back to a title shot if made to go through the system like the others.

I just want to say first, i enjoyed the fight i was rooting more for khabib, but still skeptical. I think what bothers me about the ufc is that fans (at least the ones at this event) expect a knockout when they forget this is mma. Dont get me wrong i enjoy a good brawl & knockout, but cmon. Every single time khabib did wrestling they just boo at him

Depending of the sanction, if Khabib is out for 9+ month, conor will fight tony for the interim and the winner will Khabib, if not, Dana will definitly book an immediate rematch, with all that chaos at the end, promotion will generate tons of millions
Exactly...... connor has a lot a haters........a lot of people out there would love to see him get mauled again
Who gives a shit about braindead bandwagons and cock raging kids wanting the see another beat down as the main event, the best and second best fighter are the ones that should compete for the belt, not the money hoe tapper.

Tony has to get his shot at khabib. It just has to happen and hopefully khabib doesn’t sit on his throne like most after a big fight. For me 30-0 is a good number.

He somehow got idiots thinking he'd beat Mayweather too lol
50 million? The PPV only made 60 million. Mcgregor was paid 3 million not 50 million lol

It was NOT "a more offensive strategy" that did not win the fight for Conor.
Khabib didn't give him the chance to be offensive.
Khabib is in a higher class than Conor!
Ok I am a huge fan of Khabib's. Conor did quite well better than most of the fighters that Khabib defeated in a compete dominant fashion.
In the third round, Conor did well against Khabib's wrestling and arguably won that round. Khabib hasnt really lost a round in this pro career.
I think a rematch would still sell pretty well.
Yes, I don't like the fact Conor talked about others family and religion. However, Conor is a true fighter. I like the fact he didn't really care about aftermath melee. At the end of the day, no one really got seriously injured and shits sometimes happen cos it's a fight business.
Conor def knows how to take not just how to give. Props to him on that.
John2corner Connor was cheating the whole time.
Khabib dominated ever second of that fight.
If Connor wants a rematch, it’s not because he thinks he can win... it’s because he would get another huge payday.
Such a great coach. People can say all they want about Conor but he always wants to fight the best fighters in the world, no one else, and always shows up on fight day no matter what. Can't say the same about everyone else.
If for some terrible reason there is a rematch, Connor will get beat again........maybe even quicker !!!
Not possible conor will kill khabib second time kabab knows this and it's why he won't rematch conor he is scared
@@emmacharlesworth4393 nope conor would get ass raped and submitted again!
xX Kh4lis Xx nah bro this mma ain’t no guarantees, Connor could catch him with one punch and it’s all over and khabib could also just maul him, but you never know.
@@emmacharlesworth4393 this what you guys tell yourself s to sleep at night huh
I was actually impressed with Conor in the first round, he looked very calm and relaxed while he was on his back and didn't waste his energy by trying to explode back to his feet. When the second round started he should have been more switched on but after he got caught with that right it completely changed the narrative of the fight which led to the submission. Would definitely be interested in a rematch but I think Conor should fight Ferguson and then the winner of that gets Khabib.
Im 3yrs late but help me explain how that insignificant overhand right “Change the narrative of the fight“. Khabib feinted for a td. Connor reacted and started to move the overhand right connects but doesnt nothing. I know and say this because in previous fights anytime Khabib lands at overhead right he rushes in with a flying knee. Conors but didnt ever actually hit the canvas. Essentially conor drops to one knee & evaded Khabibs knee. Lands one of his own and they keep trading until a few moments later when Khabib gets another td.
rename the whisky to "Proper Looser" for the rematch
Andsenn you’re hilarious 😂😂😂 fuck off
I gotta say, I picked Conor to win & I knew it was a huge possibility that he would get Conor down & maul him, but seeing it go down the way it did was still socking to me. He totally dominated Conor, & even dropped him on the feet. I was very impressed by Khabib's performance, nothing but respect for the man. He truly is the best Lightweight on the planet. Nothing but respect to both guys.
This dude literally said he was winging it lol
Joe Rogan should take over Dana Whites position.Dana is so obvious on Mcgregors side. It stinks!!!!!!

Conor is the only draw they got in the company working full time. Ronda gone. Brock has 1 maybe 2 more in him. Jones can't stop doing cocaine. Conor is the cash cow. It's a business. If you don't like it, start your own company, promote solely on the "sweet science" and watch how empty your venues will be forever
In the next 5 years, ufc will be a dead company..... They are turning it into just a money grab within morals
@@randylynch4330 if you think 1 fight in the UFC is full-time then I have no words.
By the way, if we look over the overall money, the UFC made more money in its history over those 2 years of Conors absence...as stated by Dana white.
Come to our side. Boxing is shady af but we have more talent in all divisions now :D
No rematch. mcgregor will retire. KHABIB NURMAGOMEDOV VS GEORGE ST. PIERRE
.
That would be a great fight. Same with tony or woodley. Mcgregor shouldnt be fighting these bigger guys anyways. It's been a bit of a scam/luck show getting in the way of making better fights.
santiago steven shut up
Damn. I wouldn't have ever thought of that one. Is GSP healthy enough to fight again?
Khabib calls out a welterweight/middleweight and tells him to come to 155 in a class gsp has never fought in. If khabib wants st Pierre he should go up in weight. Hes the one calling gsp out
Wow! Conor and his coach are 2 completely different people.
What is this comment
jesus christ himself kavanaugh doesn’t randomly punch old men in bars
@@kevinjurkiewicz9557 I know what Conor did was wrong and I hope he can find treatment for his anger issues, and I know thats not the real Conor, Conor post fights is very peaceful and respectful and just serene and calm. He carried his grandpas hat around until it was stolen. He'll be back
@@yaoshaneming I'm glad you just passed the 4 grade level of grammar.

Kelvin Torres shut up or I break your face
Kelvin Torres yes you can lol. It's a business. Conor brings in the most money. And regardless of what some ppl may say or think. Everyone wants to see him fight.
Exactly. Won two belts, never defends shit. All you people who rides Connors dick and talk about money are not true mma fans. What happen to being the best. Look at Tony 11 fight win streak and still no respect.
Walter Atkinson lol grow up kid. It's still a business. You wanna watch who'd the best go to your sons karate tournament or something. I'm only saying this cause you should know that by know. Sports are all corrupt. Wakey wakey
Agree , if he won khabib wouldn’t get a rematch or anything I am even willing to bet that if connor won he would b gone again for who knows how long and maybe shoot for a boxing rematch. There’s not many fights that interest him.
"I was too defensive" -- that's exactly what I thought while watching the fight. Conor should have came in headhunting, understanding that he's gonna get taken down and he just needs to do major damage before that happens. Khabib plowed right thru ALL of conor's defense.
Rematch? It was as one sided as it gets.
Conor was a seal and Kabib done the clubbing.
Skyrocket888 so you’re saying no one deserves a rematch vs Khabib? Cause he has dominated all his fights soon he’ll run out of opponents there has to rematches
jeffreymmorse There’s still Tony Ferguson and Gaethje and He’s retiring soon anyways. Saying Conor deserves another title shot if he wins against a Cerrone on a losing streak is like saying CM Punk deserves a rematch vs Mickey Gall.
Conor outstruck Khabib 3 to 1 in the 3rd round. That's as one sided as it gets? Lol wtf
@@2CSST2 lol with all those cheat? Come on man.. Khabib even slap him in round 3 lol...
@@2CSST2 Dude i see you defending conor in nearly every single comment. Why can't you just accept that he got his ass beat?
Training defensively explains a lot. Connor didn’t look the same.
Well, that is what Khabib does. The threat of his takedown is such a big deal. Also, Khabib has always been berated for his striking defense. He keeps his right hand up next to his chin and uses sight to avoid strikes just like a semi philly shell. I truly believe only a grappler can beat Khabib's style. Conor will not a have punchers chance against a lifelong martial artist in Khabib. Khabib was groomed to be a fucking savage in MMA. I like it. 😂
He is an athlete first, training defensively or not, it was always going to be a long night for Conor in there with the bear
I find Conor most likeable when he speaks like coach Kavanaugh. Analytical, calculated, and like a true martial artist. You see this after his defeats and during less publicized interviews.
Offensive pace or not in the rematch, Khabib would still pick him up every time Conor got close. The only difference than the original fight is that it would probabily happen more often because Conor would be on the offense and kept coming closer.
Its ridiculous they didnt bring anyone new for wrestling or perhaps even better, someone elite BBJ, f+ck wrestling. Make Conor an elite BJJ mofo and when Khabib does his wrestling bear nonsense Conor should attack on the ground. Make Khabib fear him on the ground like everyone fears Werdum, Maia or Fitch, make BJJ more than wrestling. Or FFS get someone like GSP to train with Conor, nobody, not even THE best wrestlers could take GSP down, Conor needs someone like that. Or Cro Cop, his muaythai was next lvl, every time someone came shooting for takedown they got a knee or something.
Not effin Dildo Danis.
ChopStickZero you are dumb as dog shit
'something was off'....conor didn't expect khabib to go standing toe to toe and take conor's strength was now hes confused whether to focus on defending take downs or block khabib's jabs....but with all the credit khabib has alot of game plans...people underestimate how sharp and fast khabib is and he closes the gap/range so quickly...
the guy is a beast his grappling and wrestling is top notch
I honestly don't think that Connor will ever beat up Khabib. Khabib has a lifetime of grappling, a lifetime of strict discipline, and has the will power and mindset of a warrior. These are all things Connor doesn't have
I wonder how Conor got to where he is without any of those things 😂 Must of just been chance?
Thank god we wont be seeing Conor talking trash anymore..... everybody was tired of that...
only reason you tune in you khabib fan boy. No one is buying those fights to watch khabib on the floor for 5 rounds
Eiraj Sharar wrong everyone wants to see him talk shit that's why he sells sells sells biggest box office ever? Lots of people first time watcher just for Connor shit talk
I love it!
Lots of people bought the PPV to see Conor get mauled lol
Nobody was tired of Connor talking trash, that's why everyone, including you, tuned into the promos like a bunch of fucking moths to flame.
Imagine your opponent tells you exactly what he’s going to do. You know his exact moves. And you lose anyways. Lol, Conor is a bozo.
He put the sport on the map. Did you call him a bozo after his Mendez, Aldo, Alvarez and Diaz wins?
You could say that about anyone khabib fights
What an idiotic comment, every single Khabib fight is this way. You’re the bozo at this point.
Such a casual
Imagine being called Kyrie Alom
McGregor V Pettis would be fun to watch
nah nate v conor, tony v khabib

Pettis is washed!! RDA took his soul...
Feguson vs Connor
No
One of the things that really intrigued me in this fight, and I'm no MMA expert or anything, is how Conor didn't maintain his distance that well like he usually does. He's almost always fighting orthodox fighters and coaxes them into throwing the overhand which ultimately misses and he then lands the left hand. In this one however, he abandoned his usual touches with his right hand to gauge distance and got caught by Khabib's overhand which is his signature dodge that culminates into a left hand. Perhaps all that lends credence to the fact that Conor's camp focused mainly on grappling defense for this fight and as a result, in a way, you might say underestimated Khabib's striking or the fact that he might strike whereas Khabib's team seems to have kept this in mind which is why he was able to strike and land the knockdown shot. Just my opinion.
Edit: Perhaps this just proves Kavangh's claim that they focused mostly on defense. It was definitely weird how Conor didn't maintain an arm's length like he usually does with other opponents where he's just out of range for them to think they can land but graze past his chin for him to land the left hand.
Im only just seeing this comment but I 110% agree and have said this myself countless times. Everything about Conor in this fight was off. I can also agree that Conor definitely underestimated khabibs striking capability. Not to say he is as good as Conor cus that is far from the truth. Nonetheless Conor did great in this fight & after rewatching it countless times ai can say he did not get mauled like every other bonehead online claims.
his coach seems like a nice guy but he's clearly in denial lol "i thought defensively we did quite well"..... lol what?
supernice_auto
They did, Connor actually got out from the bottom position a few times, did you even watch the fookin fight?
Considering the other fighters against khabib. Didn’t think it was awful until he rolled over on his back in the 4th.
NO BRO YO UARE IN DENIAL, KHABIB TOOK HIM DOWN and DID LITERALLY NOTHING IN THE 1st ROUND....THE 2ND ROUND turned around when khabib caught him with that right hand.....and still did better than ALL OTHER FIGHTERS that khabib faced before...and he won the 3rd round, WHICH NOONE WAS EVER ABLE TO DO AFTER BEING BEAT OF ON THE FLOOR....so STFU
He's a coach, he knows what he's talking about. Learn to listen and not make a judgement unless you're certain.
Watch the khabib vs Barboza fight for example, or even the Johnson fight and you'll see what he meant
Can you imagine after getting hammer fisted in the face many times over and almost getting your neck broken from a guy who really wants to hurt you, to immediately wanting a rematch. These guys are as tough as they come. Geez.
You got tough confused with stupidity and arragonce. There is no way there should be a rematch, khabib completely dominated McGregor a rematch would be a fucking insult to the game.
@@metaliris6404 yea but stupidity is not the case here. People said the exact same thing about his quick loss against Diaz, his next fight was a straight rematch and he not only didn't give up his back this time, he survived 5 rounds 2 weight classes higher than the weight he was a champion it, he's a natural light weight, anything lower or especially higher is difficult for him, and he won it. I'm not saying it will be the same here, Khabib is a beast on the ground but the best fighters won't shy away from putting themselves in uncomfortable situations and if they loose? Loss is the best teacher, that's it.
@TheJD so conor has glass jaw from being dtopped by pillow hands right
@@Podcir are you really comparing the Diaz fight to this one? They're a completely different league, even in the first fight with Diaz Conor dropped him a few times and connected a lot. The fight with khabib was so one sided it was almost scary. I see the point your trying to make but it's a lost comparison dude? Yeah Conor did much better in the second Diaz fight but again there should be NO rematch not for a while anyway because it was PURE domination on khabibs side.
@TheJD and in the 4th he was on the cage floor realising he'd over looked how much of a force khabib was.
Rematch???
Why the hell would that happen.
They guy just got completely and utterly dominated by a far far superior fighter.
This isnt a Brexit vote remoaner lobby of a 2nd referendum....
Connor got humiliated, got totally owned, got punched to the floor, got thrown like a rag doll and then HIMSELF giving up...sorry, tapping out, as he had no other option.
The top dog is Khab, CM got taken to school, and as such now goes right to the back of the line.
You CANNOT beg for a ‘redemption rematch’ because of all the utter diatribe of smack talk and insults just because it backfired on you.
NOBODY wants to see CM getting that hurt again.
Khab has NOTHING left to prove, he wins.
callyharley
He had been out for two years and thats why he lost.
3-1 is a dominating performance that included a knock down, thrown on his back as Khab always does (wasnt able to stop that was he) and used his superb groundwork (which the last time i checked is still part of MMA) to control him on the deck, at one stage turning his face into a pancake and then choke him into submission.
‘Dominated’
“To control, to rule over, to command”
At no stage did CM look like winning, his left was neutralised and his body kicks barely able to give Khab any cause for thought.
He dominated him.
callyharley
And i completely agree, but one round out of 4 is a 25% ratio.
Whether he was rusty or not, he was mauled on the ground, was knocked off his feet and failed to land any telling blows.
And the choke is a perfectly valid and well used tool that CM had no answer for.
He was dominated.
callyharley
Fan boys?
Are you that easily triggered??
Here are the facts that CM experienced....
Punched off his feet.
Pummelled on the floor.
Had a zero ground plan, was dominated there too.
Tapped out after said domination.
Lost the fight.
The truth doesnt care whether you agree with it or not.
I think you are either new to this sport or are young, but if you think groundwork is boring then you have dismissed judo and jujitsu.
You have no idea of who the Gracies were either.
Groundwork is one of the most important aspects of MMA in the modern era, how many ko’s come by someone pummelling another while he/she is on the ground?
Exactly....LOTS.
As someone like myself who watches with a balanced attitude, Khab was his usual self, he neutralised CM biggest weapon, his left, by keeping out of range, balance and movement. CM had no answer to it, why? Because he not only was facing the no.1 fighter in that division but was just coming off of a 2 year lay off.
He got his ass handed to him and made all the pre-fight talk embarrass him.
I dont care what one persons opinion is of the result as the result speaks for itself, no excuses...
One guy was the far superior.
If you ever had doubts over CM making this fight then you should of told him yourself.
He’s a big boy, he made the choice to fight but was given a beaten.
No excuses needed
callyharley
It’s ok sweetie, it’s just all you millennials sound the same.
You may run along now ....
Rematch???

"The lifecycle of an athlete" Well said!, the body goes through changes.
I dont know what beating, he barely received damage on the ground, it was just the choke.
This guys is so well-spoken and seems respectful. Makes me think that Conor isn't actually as big of a jerk as he comes across, just an act and he really is just putting on a show to make that $$$. That was a great fight, wish there wasn't as much WWE antics and more of purely skilled fighting.
I hope there is a rematch. Just so that UFC would be what it used to be with fighters earning their fights through rankings. When Conor loses again to Khabib he won't be able to fight for a title for a while until he earns it like every other fighter.
Like ufc used to be ? Didnt brock lesnar get a title match after winning one fight 😂

Porier vs. McGregor... Porier wins by ko.

Great coach, didn't make any excuses for the loss. Respect.
Kavanagh is one of the best coaches in the business, very cool and honorable both in victory and defeat. And he is right that their training camp focused more on defence rather than on offence as evidenced by what went down. That said, an adjustment in their training focus could have the contest more competitive. But I seriously doubt it if the result would be any different. Of course, Conor's ego would ensure an immediate rematch. It will surely be bigger in terms of PPV and live audience. More profit for the UFC. But in that match, he will really be humbled and his face really "smeshed."
