He gets a ground game and a better gas tank, maybe shed 15 lbs to get a little more quickness (& better stamina in the process) he’s going to bring that belt here to Houston.

Apparently he had a scratched right cornea from a glove and a broken orbital bone in his left eye so he couldn’t see nearly the entire fight :huhldup:
He needs to shed at least 25lb+

I was reading dude ate a full rack a ribs before one of his fights

That’s some James tony shyt

it really is only business. this is sports entertainment.
some fighters just want to fight and not be marketable then complain when fighters with "less talent" get paid more or get more fight opportunities with big pay days.
if mayweather was just a quiet guy and boxed he would not have the fortune he has now.

Yup. It’s absolutely sports entertainment, it’s odd how many diehard fans try to fight that label. MMA is related to pro wrestling more than they wanna believe.

Company is owned by an entertainment company WME, UFC has basically no real legit ranking system nor clear path to a title shot other than what Dana feels “makes sense”

If people like Conor, Jon Jones etc weren’t polarizing or talking people into seeing him win or hoping he gets his ass kicked nobody tunes in as evidenced by some of the PPV’s headlined by non polarizing but super talented fighters (Mighty Mouse for instance)

thats all fighting though.

Boxing isnt half way fixed?

What I dont get is...
...people expecting these cats to just turn it off at the drop of a dime.
Same with football.

Its not realistic.
Fighting is a game of fukery...and sometimes thats going to bleed outside of the ring.

So what!?

As long as they keep it amongst each other...whats the big deal?

Some folks rushed in here to do the whole "thugs" thing...
...but the reality is that McGregor and Khabib are cut from the same cloth as black folks in poor areas in this country.

Athletes...especially fighters generally come from poor (urban) backgrounds.
So yes...back in their home countries these cats are looked down on by the same people who look down on black athletes.

Where was this legendary stand up I always hear mcgregor stans talk about? Does he train with a bunch of yes men?

dudes in the UFC love fighting at a lower weight they aren't naturally supposed to be at just to fight smaller guys.
Why are they allowed to do that bullshyt:what:

Khabib is doing what Conor did at 145. He's so much stronger than these guys.

I do think Lee could probably beat him. Ferguson Khabib w/ Lee as a standby need to be made asap.

Nate didn't have a belt when he gave Conor a rematch. Its no running that back.
i used to be cool with conor until he started making shyt personal and showboating too much


he is not doing what conor did at fw, conor was beating on ppl smaller than him. khabib is a stocky short guy with a short wingspan.
