The latest narrative from Conor haters:

"Wow Dustin learned so much from getting battered by Khabib. He couldn't last 3 rounds and won none but he learned soooo much, he just showed in a gruelling encounter that went the distance against an opponent with 9 losses that he deserves a rematch!"

Also Conor haters:

"Conor got to the 4th round against Khabib, even winning a round, then smoked Cowboy on his return in half a minute but he learned nothing and doesn't deserve a rematch, he can get in line behind Dustin and I don't care that Conor annihilated Dustin in their bout, I just don't like Conor so I'm sticking with Dustin being more deserving and will die on this hill of ignorance"

lol.he beat dustin how long ago? conor fangirls need to stop living in the past
 
Tell you this... with Khabib unfortunately out. Mcgregor is more likely to fight for the belt than Poirier. ***and he is retired.
 
Conor has stock in Mas on fight island.
Is Mas does it, which I believe he can, Conor will shoot for that 3rd belt.
Triple C like Cejudo lol

dustin congratulated khabib, accepted him as the champ and the better fighter, conor can't even talk about the fight without having PTSDs and telling he never lost and is " undefeated " ( he legit said he is undefeated ... ).

U learn from a loss by accepting it, not refusing to see it. And btw, dustin would get mauled by khabib if there is a rematch, no matter how much he learned. Same for conor, but u can dream if u want.
 
I don't think Poirier learned much given he got taken down by Hooker.
 
Never seen anyone say Dustin learned anything from the khabib fight

They did on this site, and he did. The Dagestani handcuff along the fence during the Hooker fight the other week. Other than that...nothing really I saw.
 
Khabib is so lucky he faced the worst version of Conor

Which part of the hooker fight leads you to believe that a rematch with Conor would be different?

Was it the way hooker was landing the 1-2 on him at will before he got tired? Imagine if that was conor.

Was it the fact that poirier was losing until hooker gassed? Conor went 25 minutes with Diaz and won.

Or was it that the success poirier had on the feet was when he was standing in a phone booth brawling? I don’t recommend trying that approach against McGregor, besides hooker was basically a heavy bag with no movement at that point. Conor has excellent footwork.
 
Dustin learned but it still doesn't mean he can stop khabib. Neither can conor. Sorry.
 
You’re not wrong at all, but this is Sherdog... so prepare to get flamed.

Hold on a second did dustin spend hes entire time since the loss to khabib, making every excuse under the sun about why he lost and even claiming that it was a close fight that he nearly won ?
