same here , he was a little boring and was not trying to beat them on the ground. if you rewatch the Abel fight, there are plenty of moments where he was able to punch Abel,I dont know why he did not but he just didnt punch. even the ref. was saying lot of times ''work''
guess he did learn from his previous fights and MJ was the unlucky guy this time.
Khabibs striking sucks but people forget that his best weapon is not only grapling, he just didnt get hit.
MJ is a great striker , he was able to catch him good but it was not that good how Rogan tried to explain during the fight.
guess people will try to avoid the new version of Khabib , I mean agressive on the ground
Nurmy is not gonna " test " is striking against a guy like Conor don't worry. If he takes him down in the first, Connie is f*cked.Mj smoked khabib on the feet in the 1st round, Almost knocking him out. Imagine what Conor would do to him.

I never bought into the Khabib hype and thought he was a GSP level blanket. That was by far the most ruthless beating I've ever seen put on somebody. Khabib kept pulling MJ's wrist out from underneath him, kept the 1 on 1...and basically made MJ defend with one arm while delivering some heavy punches.
I'm officially on board, I've watched plenty of Fergusons fights...and he's not much of a takedown artist...but he's tough off his back. But I also thought he lost to Castillo 2-1.
I'm sold, I think there isn't a soul at 155lbs that could beat him. His striking aint shit, but one takedown against Conor...and I don't know. MJ is a former national champ wrestler with amazing TDD, Conor's been taken down by Siver and Diaz.
Hard for me to bet against Conor with that striking though. I think that fight will be extremely bloody with Khabib having a busted face, but winning rounds by taking down Conor and beating him up. It'll be a fun back and forth fight I believe.
I just remember his chicken dance in the first two minutes, fighting like he was on top of a bowl of jelly.
Conor KO.
I'll agree that once Khabib has you on the ground you're pretty much fucked.
However, in that same fight Khabib took way too many nasty shots before getting his game implemented. If he lets Conor hit him even 1/2 that much he's going to be unconscious.
Hahaha, aye like when I get floored in a fight, I'm just playing possum really, my opponent then lets his guard down and I attack.That's just what his stand up looks like. He wasnt rocked by MJ's punch

Aye being geordie, I'm from Newcastle, England and sometimes forget I'm communicating with yanks, apart from that everything I said is perfectly understandable.Speak English
Conor only needs one, Khabib won't need nytol that night.lol he only received 16 significant strikes in the first round.
MJ has nothing off his back? What's fights are you basing that assumption on?
