    Going for doner Khabib on this one - by submission.

    More likely the ref will stop it rather than submission if Khabib wins

    I reckon he was irked that everyone was talking about his weight even though he made weight like a boss the last two fights after the hospitalisation.

    How is it a statement? It was obviously a tough weight cut for him so he probably just wants to get weighed ASAP so he can rehydrate, eat and go for a sleep. Nothing more than that

    83,000 people watching the weigh ins on MMAFighting channel alone. That's crazy.

    Jaysus. Can you imagine, especially after all that talk about Khabib being unreliable and a pull out merchant :pac:

    I forgot the weigh in window was 2 hours. I thought they only had 1. You know Conor is going to drag this out.

    Reading a lot of "Khabib looking pretty good" comments. Good that he's made weight and, you know, not in hospital or anything but I didn't think he looked great at all there. Quite frail.

    Jesus, lads who are in Vegas. Fans are allowed at these early weigh ins as per Brett Okamoto and Ariel Helwani. Get yourselves over there!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,165 ✭✭✭mangobob


    Interesting. P Carroll saying conor is on weight and on his way...

    Poor aul Khabib will be embarrassed tomorrow night

    I think he looked slightly more deflated than he did before 205, maybe he's a bit heavier than then?
