Remember when Conor looked up to the ref against Mendes, begging for the fight be stood?
That was nothing.
Conor fans are in the process of trying to convince themselves Khabib isn't going to ragdoll Conor with TD's, but they still haven't thought about the most horrifying part -- how weak Conor looks off his back and how strong Khabib is on top. Khabib is going to rip this guy apart. Conor is in for a slow, slow death with Khabib on top of him. Khabib wants to hurt this guy and he is said to feel as strong as a hw on top.
GSP said it right, Conor can always land but that's all he has. Khabib knows it's coming and just has to cut that angle off and take Conor down, grind him out, close the distance with swing singles, force scrambles, get Conor off balance and use his vastly superior TD's. which he is statistically favored to do, and Khabib has more ways to win like GNP TKO, Sub, Verbal Submission, Decision. Conor really can only land early. Khabib has five rounds to end Conor and Conor only has about 2. More time and more ways to win for Khabib. A statistically favored outcome.
Barboza only survived because he's a much better grappler than Conor. Micheal Johson would have been killed if Khabib wanted to hurt him like he does Conor.
