Oh shoot. My bad friend. I must not have realized I was encroaching on y’all’s conversation.We aren't asking you. It's cute you thought we were though.

That's entirely my point though. Cruz presented / worded it poorly, but his overall underlying premise that Khabib was tiring himself out more than he was damaging Conor / Conor was tiring out himself was entirely correct. It directly led to Conor making the comeback he did until round 4 when Khabib finally managed another successful shot on him.
There's tons of worse things people accept all the time, meanwhile this one was true in what was playing out between Khabib's overly aggressive offense and Conor's defense. Khabib got himself a 10-8, but then lost himself a 10-9. That's not better than just staying measured and winning two 10-9s lol.
Conor was obviously out of sorts for that fight and admitted what a lot of us suspected in that he was dehydrated / hung over after getting drunk on that swill he peddles during fight week. .
There's a lot of things to make fun of Cruz for, but this has got to be one of the most made up controversies of all time. Cruz should've spoken better, but he was absolutely right:
Make fun of Cruz for all the legitimately stupid things he does and says, but he was right here. Khabib did waste his energy, which briefly led to Conor coming back.
He didnt word it poorly. He just didnt mean the same thing as you. He was trying to make it sound like conor was in control. He wasnt. Youre also making the next round more than it was. All it did was drain conor's confidence that khabib isnt going to be walked through in the stand up either. The beating khabib gave conor was 100% worth it.
You can definitely see post count on the phone. I only use this site on the phone and see everything.Welcome to mma and sherdog.
I’m on the phone so I assume u’re new, since it doesnt show post count.
if u arw a veteran then i’d be very embarrassed for u, pretending u followed khabib’s career.
who made up that 1 round ever loss for khabib myth. Probably rogan misleading you poor casuals.
nope, you can't unless you turn the phone sideways.You can definitely see post count on the phone. I only use this site on the phone and see everything.
Disagree that Justin won the first round vs Khabib fwiw. Khabib won that round IMO. Striking was pretty even, Khabib controlled the octagon and pushed the pace - which caused Gaethje to gas super hard... and most importantly Khabib ended the round with a very important take-down, and transitioned to full fucking mount and went for the sub. Would have been game-over w/ like 10-15 more seconds. Which is exactly what happened early in round 2 when Khabib got another TD.Justin won the first round against Khabib. And he didn’t cheat 20 times to do it either. Make up some more bullshit why don’t you.
Oh. I see what you mean. I just click on names and it pops right up.nope, you can't unless you turn the phone sideways.
That zebra cheeks mod earlier in this thread told me and I tried and it worked.
Dunno why you can see it without doing so.
I says.. PARDON?In now way did he week the first. He was seconds from being finished.
The only opponent to win a round. Dragged Khabib in to the deepest waters, landed most strikes, stuffed the most takedowns, absorbed the fewest blows and suffered the lightest damage.
Dustin & Justin never called for the rematch because they knew deep down they had nothing for Khabib, Conor called for it cause he was rusty as hell yet survived 4 rounds, whatever you think of Conor, he deserved that rematch.
The fight would have ended in round 2 via Kimura if McGregor didn't land the illegal knee

Also I always think Khabib wanted to break his arm.
Also McGregor won round 3 by grabbing Khabibs shorts and gloves,preventing him from taking him down and mauling him more.
Oh 100%. It's stupid that strikers can't punish grapplers in sprawl position with knees and kicks.I despise McConor. But I would love to see UFC allow soccer kicks, knees to downed opponents and knees like McConor did there.
you do realize that whatever lame excuse you are making does not change what OP asked? For you to feel compelled to make up excuses for it just show how desperate you are, kid.You actually think the khabib that fought Gleason was in his prime form?? Ok buddy more like whatever helps you sleep at night.
You don't know shit about mma. How can you watch it this long and still be completely clueless as to what you are watching?
Why do you think he threw the knee if he didn't use it to improve his position?
Hey Conor nuthugger, it's closing in on 2023 now. Conor's time has been over for 6 years. Shouldn't you be on the nezt bandwagon by now? Khamzat could use more posts.The only opponent to win a round.
