The result for many hinge on whether Khabib could get the take down early. Nobody predicted Khabib landing big shots standing, or Conor repeated stuffing takes downs in later rounds.

Of course, he never looks a gift horse in the mouth to make a few bob but it's still evidence of competing interests. Nevermind all the other stuff happening back here. To be fair, Cerrone is the ideal opponent. Let's see what's up. It's been a minute.

"As far as the opponent, I have the opponent’s name, but for me, the game I am in and from experience, if I was to give you people the name, which I would love to do, the UFC would flip it. Because they’re a crafty company.

eagle eye wrote: » I was a huge fan and tbh I don't like the way he has acted for the past two or three years. He used to be funny and then he became just nasty like trying to be a bad mofo or something. I'm sure Dana White was behind all that but it's still not nice imo. I don't hate him though and there are lots of worse guys in the UFC. I don't get how people get to a stage where they want to see a guy, who they really don't know, get the crap kicked out of him.

If he follows through on what he said in Moscow, and was to beat say Cowboy or even Gatche/Poirer in Jan, Diaz or Masvidal in summer, and Khabib in Moscow towards end of year, he will be a bigger than ever star. I also think you will see a much more funny side of Conor in lead up to what looks like will be the Cowboy fight, both of them will be good natured to each other. It will be more like the funny Conor from start of his ufc career.
