UFC Caught Manipulating Official Data to Favor Conor after Loss to Khabib?

[Double Dragon]

It wasn't a knock down. His ass never touched the ground. It was a slip and he caught himself.

so this isn't a knockdown right?

 

[Chok Sok Te]

True or huge!

hahahahaha owned

How is changing some stats protecting their golden boy? He still has a L on his record...

 

[tmnpothead]

God bless conor

 

[613]

HONESTLY, in his defense...

(Zero "fanboy shit" on this)

That "knockdown" wasn't a true knockdown.

If, we are referring to the punch.

So removing the knockdown seems like they updated the accuracy of the numbers.
Totally guessing here,
don't care,
got hooked into the thread out of boredom. It's sunday.

Whats a "true knock down"? It would be a knockdown in Boxing or Kickboxing. In MMA he was "knocked" by Khabib "down" to a technically grounded opponent. Pretty sure its a knock down

 

[F1980]

Is that legit or shopped?

 

[TankAbbott4Eva]

Which doesn't even make sense anyway because a fighter on his knee is the definition of a grounded fighter.

Exactly what I thought too.

 

[Clippy]

This is pathafucked

 

[Bob Sagat]

Weird how they missed the knockdown upon second viewing...

 

[Mixedfights]

Think its time to move on bro

 

[MaveDeltzer]

there is some "consistency" in how conservative they are but I would still like to see a definition... seems to me like they are just bullshitting it

You can contact them and ask.

I've contacted them on what they count as a takedown before and got a quick response.

 

[613]

But yes, as I said in my post prior, after watching the GIF, his ass nor knee hit the floor, instead only a hand did.

 

[HelloJapan]

"Wow". Lmao.

 

[Heero**]

Conor got hit and stumbled.

 

[Pancake Sprawl]

Which doesn't even make sense anyway because a fighter on his knee is the definition of a grounded fighter.

once his hand touched the ground that's a knockdown in every single combat sport known to man.

so this isn't a knockdown right?

This was a knockout, not a knockdown.

Dana manipulated the statistics at home while surfing on Sherdog.

I knew someone would say that so I almost included it but hoped nobody would be that pedantic.

It's still a knockdown even if the ref decides that the fighter cannot intelligently defend himself after it happens.

 

[BHR]

wow intresting gonna have to go back rewatch and count for myself dont remember conor landing that much

also how does kabib only have 1 sub attempt? didnt he have the kamura in rd 2 and the choke?
