The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- Cannonier, Imavov, Reyes, Rosas on NOW

Al said while Khabib was on top of him punching him, Khabib was talking to Matt Serra who was instructing Al and said "good job, you're telling him to do the right thing"

Thus cold. LoL

If I'm Conor, I look to fight Woodley next ... Khabib is beatable but in my opinion is less likely to allow Conor the space to take him out ...

Woodley is most likely just as difficult, but at least you have the 3 belt champ, champ, champ aspect to try and achieve ...

Khabib talks alot when he is dominate position

Who at 155 has good enough wrestling to keep the fight standing against khabib? alvarez? I’m a michael chandler fanboy but he’s probably past his prime at this point and viacom / bellator pays him well.

 

[QU!K]

I think Khabib is an easier fight for Conor than Tyron.

Khabib is pretty 1 dimensional.

With Tyron you gotta worry about speed, size, power, wrestling.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Eddie ******* Alvarez

"I'm khabibs kryptonite and you all know it"

Lmaooooo

Sure, win the belt easy then my man

Then there's Conor again. Did you become his kryptonite too?

 

[shogun]

His performance against that irish white privilege idiot thug was one of the worst i’ve ever seen from a champion. Basically had no defense or offense.

Hard to mount an offense when you're facing the best fighter in the history of MMA.

Nobody at 155... Would have to be Askren at 170

 

[atransta]

Conor has had beef with damn near everyone on the roster... Woodley basically LOL'd at him trying to post up on him... I hope Woodley gets him... Wold love to see Ty take his head off.

Same here, Woodley would shut his lights out

That fight might turn into a wrestling match where they try to pin each other and score points.

Not sure how true this is..but read this in the morning

Sounds stupid as hell.

Bigger than the UFC!

Chiesa, Borg & that executive better be filing a civil suit as soon as that news officially breaks

Sounds stupid as hell.

"No kicks, no take downs, no elbows, no knees. Certain things will be allowed like the clinch" seriously?! Hope this is false. So basically a standup boxing match with some clinching, dirty boxing and those rabit punches that ref warned him not to do in the boxing match lol.

Tbh, iqunita staved off the take downs pretty well

Khabib can say what he wants about "choosing to box instead of wrestle" but I was impressed by iaquintas defense

Oh and btw, paige van zant says in her upcoming book that she was gang raped in high school when boys got her drunk at a party

 

[bware113]

Khabib talks alot when he is dominate position

Nate talk a lot no matter what position he's in.
Q: Getting smashed?
A: Stockton Slap

Oh and btw, paige van zant says in her upcoming book that she was gang raped in high school when boys got her drunk at a party

Saw that this morning too. Were they tried, or was this one of those things that got swept under the 'Rape Culture' rug.Said she had suicidal thoughts pretty often too. Would've never thought that considering how chipper she is.

Really looking forward to see the Adesanya kid again. He's shaping to be one of my favorite up and comers.

 

[getback]

Floyd vs. Conor in the UFC with "modified" rules?

 

[QU!K]

If it does go down, highest selling UFC card of all time?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

So if they fought under those rules, what's allowed other than punching lol

Submissions? It said no take downs

 

[Cashflow]

This is where you should’ve said FREAK SHOW

WME has money to recoup. Mayweather has a lust for huge paydays. Conor now has a taste for the finer things in life.

Conor will make more in those 25 minutes than the current UFC Champions have made combined in their careers

I'm curious about the money Floyd will get in this supposed match

A boxing rematch with conor wouldn't make him more?

But yes

FREAK SHOW

 

[Cashflow]

I don’t think you can sell a Boxing Rematch until after the UFC bout.

They’re very likely assuming Conor starches Floyd to set up the icebreaker.

 

[QU!K]

Maybe Mayweather is willing cause an L won't count towards his boxing record
