The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- UFC 301 in Brazil- Pantoja/Aldo etc. SAT 5/4

[sea manup]

You can’t just call someone who sat through blatantly over the line personal attacks, kept his calm, went out fully focused and methodically destroyed another man weak minded

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Khabib and his crew aren't new to this. The Diaz brothers and the Scrap Pack are familiar with them. Fighting outside the cage is nothing new to these guys

Forgot about that... Haha... Just how they handle things... The UFC knows what it has with 99% of these guys and their inner circle... They are hyper aggressive guys that just fought... Surprised this doesn't happen more often... Tough to turn that off in a split second

My brother! Real life G

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Is there a better angle of Khabib spitting on Conor? Savage

 

[Barbados Slim]

I don't think he did. Kinda looked like it but I think he was just yelled something at him.

 

[IATT]

Dude just bout that life.. Conor f'd with the wrong one.. life lessons to be learned here

And a lot of people telling on themselves

 

[abubakr shaheed]

I know a few guys like Khabib. They have a different level of fight in them. And nothing drives them more than Islam. I’m surprised he let the disrespect slide in so many instances.

Khabib was talking **** to Conor the whole fight I loved it. At no point was he interested in sportsmanship. Too late for that & he ain’t worried about endorsements or social media reactions.

What most people don’t understand, is that this type of stuff is normal for wrestling and combat sports events in Russia. To McGregor, this is a game, but for the Dagestanis this is life. The UFC brought them in but didn’t do their research. Dudes are as gangster as it gets.

BBC - “Dagestan is most dangerous place in Europe.”

Khabib a real one

Conor and his mans had it coming.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

The UFC don't care about that, Dana don't care. Greg Hardy is the ultimate PR nightmare and yet he's pretty much in the UFC

Nate is out here every other month fighting fans at MMA events and is still in the UFC

100%... Dana is good at his job but he is still a piece of trash human... Dana got more than what he hoped for outside of a Conor win

 

[blastercombo]

He’s more than welcome to say that to his face

 

[newbs24]

PLEASE let Tyron get healthy and KO this guy... Cringey Covington is not even clever... With his terrible fitting Jos A Bank suits

 

[blastercombo]

I like that Bib set the sport back but not the racism and the staged attack on the bus gone wrong in hopes to promote a show.

 

[jewseejay]

Fergusons win bonus was only 5k?!? Hope thats a type-o and missiing a zero at leastttt

 

[P A Z]

This is just another case of when keepin' it real goes wrong

Connor kept it real..




But it turns out, Khabib kept it realer

He only got his $145K show money, but he might have gotten a fight of the night bonus, I didn't see who was awarded those
