    Different story for a title fight surely, absolute rancid joke if its allowed happen now with him getting iv help.

    Well I mean if he got an IV he wont make 155 so it wont be a title fight, maybe ferguson fight for 155 interm and if Khabib wins there is no interm, similar to holloway v petetis a few weeks ago

    Id imagine after this weight cut and Khabib being half drained, Tony can win this handy enough if it makes it to the cage. No way is Khabib going to keep the cardio up for 5 rounds after this weight cut.

    Nope, Tonys cardio top 5 in the UFC i'd say too horrible match up for him now fight aint happening 20mins left no show forget it.

    He has to be on the scales regardless of weight in the next 25 minutes or he can't fight at all.

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Overeem got away with being late before took a fine and still fought.

    No chance I'd say Lads. They really need to do something about the weight cutting.

    They are saying its not a weight issue, bull**** imo.

    So so disappointing


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,054 ✭✭✭D.Q


    Takes the shine off it in a big way for me. Been relegated to a sunday afternoon showing now I think


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,081 ✭✭✭Fromvert


    MMA is never just straight forward. I hate it.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    This is the one fight in mma right now I want to see, so disappointing.

    I don't think it's a coincidence that Khabib has pulled out of fights twice already against Ferguson. I really don't think Khabib wants any part of El Cucuy.

    Devastating although i shouldnt of got my hopes up until i saw both of them in the cage together. Seems to me like more people are missing weight since the new weight cutting times introduced


  • Registered Users Posts: 609 ✭✭✭jmx009


    Damn !!  I was soo looking forward to this fight ! It sucks big time !


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,081 ✭✭✭Fromvert

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,963 ✭✭✭Podge2k7

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    They better no reward him with a bull**** interim shot now,back of the que with him.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,560 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    God dammit!!!!! This was gonna be an epic fight leading to an even more epic fight with Conor, complete shambles!!

    Izi Garcia (on twitter) called it a week ago.

    Khabib would pull out on weigh-in day and Nate Diaz steps up.

    The last part is obviously wishful thinking.

    Pull-out merchant. Conor was right (again) - it'd be madness for them to ever book Conor v Khabib.

    He's too unreliable.

    I think Khabib will probably retire. He has been hinting at it.
