You should bet all your savings thenAll I know for certain is that Conor Mcgregor is not winning this fight.
I believe that Khabib has strayed from his game plan before and his corner didn't like it. They wanted him to TD, TD, TD against Al iaquinta but he chose to stand and bang I believe.
I've got $10 on Conor so I hope he puts on a Aldo or Alvarez style performance.
How can you be so sure it's gonna be all over for Conor that quickly?I don’t believe that Conor is very durable and if Khabib gets Conor down 1 time it’s over for Conor. Khabib’s grappling is too dominate and Conor just isn’t as knowledgeable on the ground or durable enough to withstand Khabib’s GnP or sub game long.
I don't think either of them have wanted to win a fight more badly. Conor wants this even more than he wanted to KO Floyd and "shock the world". So much is on the line. Conor made it personal by going after Khabib's dad. Can you imagine how much pressure Khabib is under? His family's honour is on the line. He's reminded of it every time he looks at his dad leading up to the fight. His camp are no doubt in Khabib's ear making sure he treats this like any other fight. But it's not. And they all know it. The X factor is Conor has faced this kind of pressure before. Name a fight that Khabib has had where the build up and intensity was anywhere close to Aldo, Nate 2 or Floyd? Conor could have had career ending humiliations in any of those fights. Conor looks like he's already on weight. 1-2 days of cutting max. Khabib will barely squeeze in like he always does with a much longer weight cut. And then after the biggest weigh in of his life he will try to ward off the inevitable adrenaline dump that is coming when the cage door closes and Bruce Buffer is shouting Conor's name.
I more or less agree with this.I think this fight is going to look like the Mendes fight, I am referring to the pace and Conor dominating the stand up and Khabib the wrestling. I fully expect Conor to get taken down and he'll get up and move forward looking for the KO and doing damage standing and Khabib to to his thing and get him down again. I think Conor has been working on two things....1. TDD and 2. Getting up. I dont think he's really concerned with the grappling with Khabib. I am picturing Mendes/Conor but for longer than two rounds until who ever gets the finish or dec. I think Conor has the best shot to end it early and Khabib in the later rounds.
Everyone is expecting a dominant performance either way. I don't see that, I dont think Conor will KO him early and I dont think Khabib will control and dominate start to finish like Barbosa. Like I said, expect the Mendes fight but longer where it's pretty even and both guys doing well in their element.
No prediction! But I hope that Conor knocks his head off
