UFC 229 Nurmagomedov vs McGregor - Sat Oct 6th Warning in first post!

Seanachai · 07-10-2018 10:58AM

Whatever can be said about McGregor's condition or his behaviour, seeing Nurmagomedov trying to portray himself as being above it all is galling. He has more faces than a town clock that fella.

He's just ringing the rematch numbers in his head.

Just as well he has all those $100 dollar bills to dry his tears with.

Makonomi is a good dude, but silly to be taking swipes at someone you have never met.

He started it. I expressed an opinion weeks ago. Part of that opinion was that Khabib was going to win on the ground. Makikomi was one of the 'experts' that told me I didn't know what I was talking about, yet here we are.

McGregor hasn't a notion of winning a rematch. Khabib didn't flinch once when the lefts landed last night.

He didn't agree with me weeks ago, everyone else doesn't remember but I'm going to try be a smart ass weeks later.

Ok buddy put down the keyboard, go outside relax.

That was not the man that made Eddie Alvarez look like a nobody.

Drake knocked out Khabib with one punch and is being prosecuted personally by the Governor of Nevada for a crime so hot it doesn't even exist: attempted manslaughter.

This guy won the night for me.

We got to have Khabib vs GSP to see who the all time goat of mma is.

Would be great to have that fight for next summer.

A great result for Ireland, thanks Khabib. Pity this didn't happen 3 years ago. Mc Gregor looked like an amateur. Roddy and coach kavanagh found out too. If kavanagh is so great how come there isn't more high profile fighters from straight blast gym
?

I remember watching the Alvarez fight and thinking how in god’s name is Alvarez the supposed best in this division...really underwhelming..

Suppose that's what happens when you spend months insulting a guys family, religion, home and come after him with a gang like on the bus.

Those Muslim guys take their religion seriously.

The two guys who jumped in and swung at McG should be let go from the UFC.

Dana trying to sound outraged was very funny.

When did McGregor make fun of Islam?

I know in the first press conference he asked why doesn't he drink but that's not making fun of Islam at all.

The Golden Miller · 07-10-2018 11:17AM

Hearing alot of "2016 McGregor would of got a KO", "he was flat-footed", "real McGregor didn't show up" etc. Always a mitigating factor when he loses, isn't there? Same after the first Diaz fight. It's as if when the "real" McGregor shows up he wins no matter what, regardless of what the opponent does. Total arrogance from his fans really.

McGregor was taken down straight away really. He gases all the time too when he gets a few digs, he's not a warrior. Conor came in shape, he wasn't flat-footed trading in round 3, nor was his game off on the night, he simply wasn't let fight his fight, because Khabib showed up to do exactly that. Does it really give people comfort coming up with the "if the real Conor showed up", "2016 Conor" excuses? Every iteration of Conor loses this fight

If I were McGregor, I would hand up my gloves after this one. He's got a kid now and needs to think about that.

He's made enough cash to sustain himself and his family for decades. Not only that, he got sponsorship deals coming out of his arse.

I'd be heading to hollywood to do a load of action movies ala Jason Statham.

Called him a mad "backwards" **** which most reckon was a reference to Islam

mick malones mauser · 07-10-2018 11:21AM

Hopefully this is the end of this excuse for a sport. At least over here.
Its really just legalised thuggery.
Why not let them have guns and knives in the ring or octagon as they call it.

you're really reaching if you think that's a religious jibe.

Why? His persona that he's cultivated is then dead and buried, he won't be able to show his face again and talk with any credibility, since he went out a loser. No, he has to have a rematch

asteroids over berlin · 07-10-2018 11:27AM

this is just like the wwe, too bad tge russian bloke took mcgregors post fight crap talk personal. Perfect business for the dwindling ratings this so called sport is suffering from. Too bad people are oblivious to it. Wouldn't mind, the actual contests are quite boring to watch!

The Nevada state commission have withheld Khabib's cheque.
He's probably gonna leave America with a bill in back pocket I'd say.

Anyone just not understand what Tony's trying to get at? Great fighter. Self promotion doesnt click with me.

Some great fights last night.
