Watching that press conference has me thinking UFC should probably drug Khabib. He has no marketability or personality whatever and his fighting style will put casual fans to sleep.

exactly this .. fuck khabibs sambo style , that is not the style of fight i want to see dominating the belt..

conor wins and all sorts of more great fights to be made .. khabib wins it grinds to a halt ..

khabib looked like shit against iaquinta ..

i understand why everyone likes khabib here but he is very very slow and conors very fast and his take down defense is at the leasrt
excellent , i have conor winning round 1 , khabib round 2 , conor rd 3 , round 4 neutral and conor rd 5 ..

if conor dosnt tko him ..he wins by decision is my prediction...

last;y i have always hated thart piece of shit abdelaziz and i will never root for him to prosper through any of his fighetrs success..

he is a terrorist enabler and supporter , a rat that got asylum, certain muslims want to kill him and he is a disgrace to america's policy to
allow asylum based simply on the fact that he failed a poly when asked if he revealed if he was an fbi informant while "visiting" egypt
against fbi permission

if u want to see conor lose there are plenty of nad match ups waiting for him, but please not to this guy. ferguson is a terrible terrible match up for conor ..


if u want to see him lose wait on it , but dont root for khabib .. the division will suck unless ferguson beats him like he wouldve

barboza was khabibs signature victory ( and trujillo ) .. as game and tough as barboza was he was very sloppy with insanely low fight IQ in that fight

Conor just signed a six fight deal with the UFC. Will be interesting to see what happens if he loses. How quick before he gets another title shot. Will they go straight to a Diaz rematch

How are they gonna go straight to a Diaz vs Conor 3 when Diaz loses to Porier? Unless they both lose, right...

McG wins, Diaz wins = title fight

McG wins, Poir wins = title fight


Not saying easy win for McG in either fight, but should come out on top. Would not put McG in danger like they are with this fight. If he wins, his money making power goes through the roof even more...

I don't know if they'd go to Poir if he wins... but the guy deserves a shot.

Poir is -225 fave in this fight. That fave # seems huge price.

Yeah. Pretty much what I meant. Porier calling for the Diaz match to be for a 165 pound belt. lol Enough with the talk of more divisions. It will get too watered down.

I agree the juice is a little pricey for me as well on Dustin.

With a victory, no doubt about it, he deserves a title shot. It’s his time, win or lose...

Agree with both That poirier price is way to high..diaz with a god chin , poirier better wrestle diaz better JJ and edge to diaz with hands no ?

Part of me feels diaz has lost the stomaxhe tofight .. he said a few times how much he hates it .. he took an absolute beating in McG diaz 2

having said that God chin + expert in JJ + extreme condionong i see the fight as a closer to a pick then a 2 to 1 fave

They hafta eventually go to same day weigh-ins or more divisions, IMO. Unfortunately, it might not make sense, but it’s the right thing to do. The changes they’ve made have helped, and led us in the right direction, but it’s not enough. Boxing has more divisions (watered down, right), and at most jitz tourneys, we’ve weighed-in even 5 minutes before a match. Fighter safety should always be the concern and top priority, and weight cutting definitely is still a cause for concern...

Neither diaz has ever bee; knocked out and diaz has stayed traing in boxing so i dont see poirier schooling him with fists totally .. and if it goes to the ground diaz is comfy there .. npt knocking poirier at all i just see this is a pretty well matched fight

I think it’s a pretty well matched fight as well, but to me, Diaz hits like a little Bitch compared to Dustin. Dustin fading is my main concern if it gets into the Main Event rounds...

Nate got TKO’d by Josh Thomson. Nick got TKO’d by KJ Noons, a great boxer, and one other time early is his pro career.

I just saw the press conf in its entirety. That was incredible. Dude must've been coked out of his mind. He had some great lines.

Told Khabib if he pulls out then it'll be bad for his family back home. Asking if Khabib has anything to say to Putin. Bringing up Khabib's manager and how Putin jailed his ass. Said it's good Khabib didn't get out of the van because if he did then McGregor would be in jail and Khabib would be dead. So it's a blessing.

No clue how anyone can't love this guy. This is combat sports. Enough of that pussification of America BS.

Odds aren't out for Poirier vs stoppage yet but I'll look at that. Similar to Gaethje/Alvarez fights.

Diaz just kinda sucks, that division just got a lot better. Was in the right place at the right time with the McGregor thing. He was barely a contender 6 years ago and got schooled by Benson when he finally got the shot. These young guns will handle him.
