0 knowledge by me. Just a fan. But if it's gonna be ground humping contest... let's let the two best ground humpers hog tie each other up

Herb Dean should have stood up the fighters multiple times in the first round! Khabib didn't do anything significant in round one. Over 4 minutes of relative inaction.

You said both overrated, again how is a fighter that has only lost ONE round in his career be overrated?

Only lost 1 round?

Wow,that is an amazing stat.

He's a heck of a fighter.

Good luck today.

He's not gonna stand up a fight in mount position, sorry. Especially when they have wrist control and punching too.

What Herb Dean should've done is take a point, or at least warn Conor for the 3 glove grabs that were right in his face, the shorts grab (you can only grab your own shorts, not the opponents) that stopped a takedown, and the illegal knee while they were on the ground position you speak of...

He didn't have full mount, both knees were not past Conors hips, and it's been done many times before, standing inactive fighter in the mount position. And yes more evidence of a terrible job done by Dean. Don't know how he couldn't see the shorts and glove grab.

No I’m not, at all...

Conor, his camp, tons of people have said Conor is an elite striker, outside MMA even. It’s not like I’m coming up with shit or approaching anything. I think it’s pretty obvious I grasp MMA and all of combat sports way better than you, and most, actually...

Tony is the poster child for an aggressive fighter, and he’s a past wrestler to boot. You just didn’t and don’t know wtf you’re talking about...

Enjoy my plays...

Not really. You may be better at picking fights, that is it. I had martial arts training since I was 7.

If you can't understand how different striking is in boxing or kickboxing than MMA.lol
