    Khabib is such a scared frightened pussy. And for Conor next fight he is gonna be trained by social media superstar James Kavanagh.

    He isn't walking around close to 190. Khabib never balloons up he is always relatively lean.

    Fully agree on shutting the thread. 99% of it is pure rubbish.

    Khabib walks around at 190 lbs?! My bollix he does. I’m 6’1”” and walk around at 160 lbs but don’t have a 6 pack.
    What's your point exactly?
    Conor is at least 3 inches shorter than you and 10lbs heavier on average, why wouldn't Khabib be?

    Didn't he miss weight before from having to cut so much weight? He's better these days, mind.
    Dos Anjos also said he walked around at 190 ish as well.

    He’s he check now. Missed weight a few times previously.

    Josh Thompson (assistant coach at AKA) also the above was wrong and he was 190 at the time after showing up to camp at 195.
    There’s always a certain amount of misinformation put out there regarding walk around weight.

    Lads some common sense please, if you are going to reference a fight that was barely on a few hours ago at least use spoiler tags for a bit!

    Common sense would be not going onto an MMA forum if you're avoiding results.

    Indeed but unfortunately people still check on the forum or read their emails. But there's also a charter which clearly says the rules regarding spoilers so its pretty simple to follow and either post in the event thread or use spoiler tags..

    Already a Fight Night event scheduled for that date in Vegas so most likely its not an MMA related tweet at all.

    I think he's just excited that he's booked his tickets to the June Rodgers Christmas Show.

    No way he fights in Dublin again until he gets bumped to Bellator, so it's not fight related so most people probably don't care.

    He has 5 fights left on his current UFC deal. No way he fights 5 more times with them, we'll never see him in a Bellator cage.

    Wasn’t there a pay per view interview once done by McGregor?

    Maybe another instalment?

    Be pretty smart by the ufc to have him fight in Dublin .

    He would be able to get the head down and might actually really make an effort to get things back on track .

    Also wasn’t the Dubai card a PPV and supposedly done great numbers . They could actually do a PPV in Dublin no ?

    all main media seems to be at that click click click. Agreed with above, definitely not getting the likes he usually does, interest definitely waning. I like how the LW's are mostly bypassing him with callouts now. I know he enjoys a callout but it will rile him up awful to just be ignored.
