The N.O
I round of feeling each other out/shaking off ring rust with action picking up towards end rd1
Rd2 someone gets caught slipping whether McGregor catches him with the left or khabib slips it and its rag doll city from that point

im taking khabib within 2 rounds...conor's cardio is shyt and he has had a long layoff..hes going to hit the wall early and hard

You would think after being in a boxing match, where cardio needs to be much better than MMA, and him gassing out so quick in that fight.. That he would put 2 and 2 together and realize he would be that much more dominant in the octagon if he focused more on that aspect.. But we all know he won't. I got Khabib too, kid looks primed.

I'm going with McGregor, gonna be interesting to see how Khabib deals with someone who he can't just pressure them right into the cage in order to get his takedowns.

You guys are going to be surprised. Conors grappling isnt that bad. I've been watching his matches and he actually has some pretty good techniques. Even the Diaz match he almost finished the takedown but was rocked and ended up in a bad position.

Diaz is terrible at taking fighters down, he’s really good off his back though

Conor hasnt faced a elite take down artist since mendes

He's been working his tdd and his jiujitsu hard. Been training with Dillon Danis and the Miyao bros so I'm pretty sure he will come ready for Khabib. This whole image of Conor that people have is crazy. They think he's going to be defenseless on the ground and I'm just saying it won't be so easy for Khabib. Conors jiu jitsu is legit, people are going to be surprised.

His tdd hasn’t been tested in years. With the way he panicked after his failed take down attempt against Diaz nobody has any reason to believe his ground game is any better.

Dont get the appeal, khabib is a bore and conor is going to get skooled
Yes you’re right

Instead of a 26-0 champ and a former double champ they should let you fight.

That’d be way more interesting. All the people around the world that are hyped up are idiots, your opinion is actually gospel.

You add nothing to this thread. Just step off and go back to doing whatever it is you do that’s just so damn exciting.
