Al did better than Barbosa, so I guess he can feel good about that

What makes you think so? Sure, he could knock him out, but Khabib has never even been knocked down and he never fails to get a takedown. I've still got Khabib. he has been knocked down, actually Who did? And even if he has, I just don't see Conor stopping him with strikes or staying off the ground. Conor looked FAR worse in his loss to Diaz than Khabib has ever looked in any fight. Maybe Ferguson might have a better chance, and IMO he would have a better shot but I don't know who'd win.

I'm still not a fan of Khabib and I'm not looking forward to his next fight. Overall I did ok betting. I ended up winning $30. sweet

Khabib holds that chin way too high. It will cost him eventually

Seriously Ferguson vs Khabib just needs to happen.
I care less about what Conor does.
IMO, regardless, the winner of Khabib vs Ferguson is the best 155er in the world.
Whoever wins that fight would beat Conor IMO.

Al's value just went up in my opinion. He looked better against Khabib than anyone has and zero notice.
UFC needs to pay him better.

Whoever wins that fight would beat Conor IMO. I agree, I think they both could beat Conor. Khabib is one dimensional on the ground. Conor is one dimensional standing. Tony is more well rounded then both. I think any of the match ups would be fun fights. Its funny, I think Khabib would beat Conor, Tony could beat Khabib, and Conor could beat Tony. LOL

I know Conor's bullshit gets old but damn he's 100x more exciting than Khabib

Both Conor and Tony will just get taken down repeatedly.
Their only chance is at the beginning of each round. Then both will spend the rest of the round on their backs.
Both fights will be considered boring with Khabib dominating. I can't see how anyone would think differently. Its clear as the sky is blue to me.

He was never in any danger.

Khabib has a good chin and I think he gets the takedown before Conor lands the knockout and takes away Conor's confidence once he starts mauling him on the ground. Khabib is better than Nate Diaz IMO and Diaz beat Conor.

Khabib is better than Nate Diaz IMO and Diaz beat Conor. This is probably one of the worst MMA math formulas I have ever heard. Conor went for the worst game plan against a Diaz brother possible, twice. He tried to KO Diaz with almost every punch and the diaz brothers can’t take them from the hardest hitters. They also have insane cardio, which khabibkind of appeared to slightly struggle with last night. I don’t think Khabib takes the same shots Diaz did, but he will certainly receive them. People keep doubting Conor, but he’s one of the best finishers, and his real only blemish is Diaz at 170.

Probably a better one would be that Chad Mendes managed to take him down in their fight and I think Mendes only had like a week to prepare or something as I remember. If Khabib takes Conor down, which I think he would, I don't see Conor being able to get back to his feet and I think he'd start to lose confidence after a couple rounds of Khabib pounding on him. For Conor to win that fight I think he'd have to knock him out in the first or second round and I don't see it happening. Khabib has looked better than he did last night, but the Khabib who mauled Barboza? Yeah, when he's on fire like he was on that particular night I don't see Conor beating him.

It’s definitely a hard fight to be 100% sure on, but I just believe that people either forget, or fail realize to begin with, the caliber of a fighter that Conor is.

Tiny Chad Mendez and Diaz took Conor down easily.
Khabib will have his way with Conor.

If Khabib comes in there flat footed like that against Conor...hes going to sleep.
After the Eddie fight...I realized how accurate and much more speed conor has over these larger weight classes.
