How come Khabib is favored to beat Conor in a rematch but not Stipe beating Ngannou in a rematch?

Ngannou early on looked MUCH more threatening than Conor ever did plus more likely Ngannou has improved and Stipe has declined.

Basically the best against Ngannou si can you get out of the 1st round? Stipe did but that wasnt easy or without danger, probably Stipe's best ever round next to KOIng Werdum.
 
Frank has much bigger muscles.
Gets your average ‘dogger turgid.

Stipe didn't look invincible against Francis like Khabib did against Conor

pointless thread, we are really running out of things to talk about

But we'll never run out of morons making idiotic threads.
 
ROFL at Khabib being favorite over healthy and sober Conor 2.0. He would get KTFOed in the very first exhange 100 out of 100 fights.

Stipe grapple-raped Ngannou for 5 rounds and had him gassed after round 1. Yet Ngannou is still picked as the betting favorite to win the rematch

Conor literally put up a much better fight against his opponent and betting odds have Conor at +215 in a hypothetical rematch.

Conor won a round. Ngannou didn't. lul wut

Because khabib is constantly improving and Conor is barely improving.
Francis has improved a lot, i still think he can't beat the champ

Conor did cheat and break the record of most cheating in a fight.
can you imagine what would happen without cheating ?
maybe this is their reference
 
Because Khabib wins by outgrappling guys and Frank wins by banishing people to the shadow realm

I want Stipe to win and Conor to win. And even I know that.

Conor has a lot of KOs but I dont think he has p4p the same "lights out" factor Ngannou does.

Stipe can win the first 7 minutes of the fight and then go night-night.

I dont think conor has ever won a ufc fight where he wasnt winning from round 1 onward.

Francis was actually a threat in the fight and for at least the first 10 minutes is a terrifying prospect for Miocic. He also has legit one punch turn your lights out power, Conor doesn't - even the Aldo KO required a knee drop from big John.

Aldo was done after the punch, cmon.

I was 100% with you on your comment until that nonsense.

Aldo was 145 and now fights at 135.

It is all Khabib can do to (barely) get down 155.

Conor's punch has nowhere near the affect at 155 as it did down at 145, especially against the granite-chinned Khabib.
 
Stipe is getting older and has been in a few battles recently; he's accumulating mileage. Meanwhile, Francis is arguably improving with experience.

Nothing much has changed in Conor and Khabib's game since their fight. If anything, Khabib looked more dominant in his fight against Justin.
 
Because they're two different fights at two very different weight classes between very, very different fighters.

But if you ignore literally everything, yeah, sure, you're right TS
 
Because Francis was active and has shown some improvements. Conor on the other hand was outclassed in standup and wrestling when he dedicated so much time on wrestling alone, so he doesn't have room where he can improve while Francis was overconfient, bloated, and had neglected wrestling in the first fight so he has a lot of room to be better in the rematch.
