OK it's a tune up fight but he gets no credit for beating the already beaten cowboy. Interesting year for Mc gregor if he sticks to going to bed early and getting up early and saying his prayers . I'd love to see a 100 %mc gregor going at Khabib at the next year with a couple of real fights leading up to it.

People will always make excuses when they lose, or will do the humble brag version of it and let others make excuses for them while saying they don't make any excuses It wouldn't be the first time the McGregor camp has done that either. You don't get to where he has without fully believing you are the best either btw so its not a major criticism or anything unusual for him to actually believe he wasn't "right" for that fight and if he was that it would have been different. Maybe I am wrong but I have seen nothing to suggest anything was off with his game that night, it just didn't work. Khabib may not have a pretty style, but it is one hell of a dominant style.

I'm looking forward to cowboy kicking the face of the scumbag but he was clearly not at the races that night. It doesn't really matter though, even if he was 100% going into the khabib fight he still would have got manhandled badly.
“He’s the most terrifying lightweight contender in the world,” and “he’s just on such another level [of grappling] that the odds of beating him drop significantly after the first minute-and-a-half.”

He'd hardly go through a hiding again knowing he hasn't a chance. He does reckon he'd take Mayweather second time round , now that's fantasy talk right there.
