lol are you implying that pre tuf fans have more ability to call a fight than tuf noobs when tuf 1 has been out for 13 years?

I never mentioned nor hinting on that. It's just a stark contrast.
 
Conor will win and make it look easy. Sadly khabib will lose his bandwagon fans though
 
I have seen simply too many glaring weaknesses in Nurmagomedovs striking game to confidently call the fight for him. Mcgregor by third round K.O
 
It's weird because I look at footage and the obvious is there that Conor has everything it takes to expose Khabib

But then I keep going back and fourth. Khabib is tough.

Maybe I'm letting Conor haters get to me. Maybe I'm letting the hype get to me.

It's actually my birthday. All I want for my birthday is to watch Conor dominate and wreck Khabib...with how unlucky I sometimes am, I'm not going to get my hopes up. I will expect the worst so that if Conor does make easy work of Khabib i will be suprised and even happier. Let's go Conor

Picking Khabib, but wouldn't be shocked if Conor is able to TKO him.
 
  • Conor wins 2 rounds
  • Khabib wins 2 rounds
  • 1 close round (or more)
  • Very close decision win for Khabib
  • Conor and his fans boo and rage
  • Conor gets instant rematch booked
  • PROFIT

I legit woke up expecting to see "fights off" on Sherdog main page

The surprising part is that it's actually still on :eek:

Still not ready to completely believe until those fuckers are in the cage tho

Modern UFC fights are unreliable as hell

I wanted Aldo to win on my birthday - my legit birthday lol
 
I am going back and forth in my head about this fight. Ultimately, I am picking Conor because something that Khabib must do before taking him down is close the distance, during which, I believe that Conor's left hand will land. Can't wait for tomorrow.

Well my birthday was actually October 1st.

But now we know why you hate Conor so much lol. You are an Aldo fan.

It's ok. Conor has shown nothing but respect and admiration for Aldo. It's ok for you to cheer for Conor now. Aldo would want Conor to smash Khabib. Conor is carrying the tourch.

Remember Khabib ducked Aldo so you should want Conor to go smash Khabib: )

There's still time for someone to go full Randleman and injure themselves during the event.
 
I'm taking Conor by tko in Rd. 2. Similar to the Mendes fight, getting outgrappled until he finds his range.
 
The ceremonial weigh-In drama of last night reminded of another big fight and shook fighting star...

And we all remember the end results of all this false bravado
