So Gaethje is the new gatekeeper, for now anyways...
I was really hoping to hear each fighter talk more shit right after the match so that was a bummer for me.
I know it's been said but there will be different rules and more punishment for Khabib because he isn't the cash cow like Connor is, just like different rules for Jon Jones. Anyone else besides those 2 would have been sent packing for the stuff they have both pulled long ago. Do you think someone like say Nik Lentz could get away from attacking a bus? Other UFC guys have been banned for much less, IE Paul Daley
Decent fight overall, but Khabib would win a rematch IMO so not sure UFC will even want to book it. Connor gets dominated again and the cash cow goes way down the ladder which they don't want. Connor beating anyone is good for business. Maybe as a "punishment" they strip Khabib of the title and do Fergunson vs Connor as many more would rather see that.

I am a Christian. I will be the first one to tell you I do not agree with Muslim people .. I don not even like most of them......BUT ......I respect Khabib. He was in the right. Conor can have all the fame money in the world but he will never earn the respect Khabib did from all religions, races, and ethnicities around the world. ......Khabib is the adult ....Conor is the baby. Conor is an idiot.
he was sanctioned to fight mcgregor. going after a civilian is illegal. jumping into a crowd of civilians is illegal. nevada commission will let u know how serious this is. at first i didnt realize mcgregor threw the first punch against a civilian. agree he needs consequences also.just a mess.
while conor was on the top of the cage he swung at khabibs brother before anyone touched him. its clear in the video. the ufc will protect connor cause he sells fights. he is the celebrity.
this is what sucks for the sport because the common fan thinks khabib is just a punk and most of these fighters are meat heads which is the worst part. a lot of these guys show true sportsmanship and respect their opponent. until that fight i would have said that about Khabib. Connor went with going personal to sell the fight and attacked Khabib in a classless way and attacked him on the bus. to me connor and his team are divas and got what they deserved.
companies protect their best salesman, so connor will face little to nothing and continue on without missing a beat. probably already starting planning his next pay per view.
