Dude is getting mad heat for it but this probably the most unintentional comedy from a fight in a minute

The fukk made him wanna do a flip off him? Lol

Hate it had to be Drew. Drew used to be a security guard here where I work at. He's catching a lot of heat for not being humble. He always does flips after his fights, but he's actually a really humble dude. Super low key and quiet. I used to talk to him about fighting all the time and he never bragged about how good he was. I thought he was just doing this as a hobby, then he told me he was serious about it and that was going to be his career path. Good guy. Shame he is going to be known for this.

Lol @ people saying that dude is "usually humble." Nikka please! He's probably been an arrogant cornball his whole life (i.e Jon Jones), and now he's showing his true colors. Karma will find him soon enough.

don't know who I want to win, both are so good and favorites. Khabib in Russia sounds amazing though but the trash talking between Conor and Tony would be legendary(Tony cringe)

: Yo, wsup homie?

: It's almost Khabib time nikka!

Love Tony as a fighter wld love for him to beat khabib. But I kinda don't want him to win cous I can't see him beating Conor.

Tony's style in stand up and ground he gives up position to take chances. Many fights he gets dropped hard recovers and then wins. Vs a guy like Conor I don't think he has that chance to recover he just gets dropped.

Meanwhile khabib vs Conor wld be fun either khabib mauls him on ground. Or Conor makes him look like rouse in the stand up.

That’s basically the way I see it if either guy fights conor. I don’t think either guy fights conor though, there’s rumors Dana is making a 165 div strictly for conor

yeah ur 100% right, I remember kevin lee getting the best of him in terms of striking. I honestly think if Kevin didn't get that staph infection, he would've won.

It’s easy to assume Tony wouldn’t get a chance to recover but remember it’s well known that Tony’s dangerous off his back so Conor probably wouldn’t wanna enter his guard for the finish.

Also remember Tony can wrestle and he’d be Conor’s largest opponent besides Nate. Tony has clever take down set ups too and he’s nasty with it. People underestimate Tony’s chances vs Conor because Tony’s been dropped. But Conor’s KO power is unproven at 155. Who knows what the fukk Eddie was high on once he realized he was about to get paid
That fight was suspect af

Eddie was too small and apparently didn’t bother to spar against a southpaw. That sh!t was embarrassing

But the fact still remains Tony has been dropped or badly hurt by almost every opponent he has faced. That's just his style, he's willing to eat a good shot if it gives him a chance to advance position or get out of something.

If ur gonna give Conor free shots I'd rather see khabib's smothering style vs Connor then.

Can’t remember a fight where conor dropped somebody and lost

Diaz took some good shots but didn’t get dropped in the first fight
