everyone talking about khabib...i agree to a certain extent. he could beat mcgregor. but the thing is, khabib is the ground version of conor, when he takes them down, it's a whole different skill level, he destroys dudes. same way with conor...except he destroys dudes on the feet. and if we're being honest, mj was tagging khabib a lot, especially in that first round. if conor hit him with those type of shots, dude would be rocked as fukk and probably done too.

like it or not, that irish fukk has a different type of power and accuracy. he's like a small version of anthony johnson or something. if you stand with him, he WILL rock you. even punching bag/zombie nate diaz at 170lbs knows that.
Conor talks timing N precision tho. Them shots don't look extra powerful but he hits the button. Same shyt I said when he clocked aldo, that wasn't a crazy hard punch he just tagged the right spot at the right moment

the only way for ufc to stay a float is to keep casual fans attention with hype trains and protect those hype trains. the casual fan can't see through the games (rousey for the womens division as an example).
rousey's run was not a byproduct of crafty ufc booking (ala bisbing or weidman) the woman division just didn't have depth or anyone that could see past ronda's mystic. Fans had to basically beg Dana to acquire Holm and when they scheduled the fight holly didn't even look ready. But that's MMa

Well, that's weird. They posted the scorecard for Wonderboy/Woodley.

1 of the judges gave a 10-8 to round 1 and not round 4 :dwillhuh:
