    If Gaetje can’t end this he won’t be lasting too much longer!

    Hell of a start.

    Justin is swinging for the fences.

    Khabib round for me.

    Khabib can't keep this pace but justin needs to survive into rnd 3

    Khabib looks at least a stone heavier, looks like fighters from two different weight classes.

    Over

    Stunning performance.


  • Registered Users Posts: 663 ✭✭✭MidlanderMan


    Lads, he's the best of all time.

    It's not even a debate anymore.

    That transition was ****ing incredible.

    Wow

    Gaetje was like a rabbit caught in the headlights. He was blowing after 30 seconds.

    Makes you wonder, how good mcgregor actually did against khabib doesn't it


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,749 ✭✭✭✭Thelonious Monk


    Aww poor Khabib. I might cry myself now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭mdwexford


    Khabib is the greatest.

    Unbelievable stuff.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,402 ✭✭✭jammiedodgers


    Unreal.


  • Registered Users Posts: 862 ✭✭✭unplayable


    insane how do you fight this guy


  • Registered Users Posts: 424 ✭✭TRANQUILLO


    an absolute savage . was knocking the bollox out of hm on the feet too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,389 ✭✭✭irishguy1983


    As a casual it feels so different/annoying watching Khabib....It’s like he is playing a different sport to other fights I watch....

    I actually thought Justin has him there...Shows how much I know....Like Justin ain’t even marked but there you go...

    Dominant performance but the difference in size was very noticeable.
    It was like a lightweight vs big welterweight.

    I don't understand how he can get that big in 24 hours.

    Like the size advantage was huge.

    Has he just retired?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,256 ✭✭✭Dwarf.Shortage


    Looked upset/teary alright, presumably the lack of his Dad in the corner. Hard to know whether that's a pro or a con though. Could put in the fight of his life with that fuelling him.

    Wasn't 100% on this but based on the reaction at the end 100% he was very emotional.

    McGregor should never ever fight him again. After making the Covid joke about his dad I'm not sure Khabib would release him if he tapped to a joke or a joint lock.

    He's a terrifying prospect, who next? With the weight being so obviously tough for him does he go up?

    Piss-easy


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


    Yeah the rumours of Gaethje not having interest in grappling are true. Khabib was straight to mount after his first take down.

    Khabib retiring?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,389 ✭✭✭irishguy1983


    Is there any point in opponent going for Khabibs legs like he does go others???? No??

    Was Justin really scared?


  • Registered Users Posts: 424 ✭✭TRANQUILLO


    GOAT


  • Registered Users Posts: 424 ✭✭TRANQUILLO

    He will want 30 fights, he'll be back for a big payday.
