Intentionally prolonged beatdowns?

[HHJ]

i would like some of this loudmouths actually try to do what they say.

Because,thats what they want to do,but the reality is the stakes are too high to play around like that,and..you have a guy who is RESISTING your plan with everything he's got.

I dont like Lombard either,but Hendo didnt play games in that fight,and he shouldnt have tried to either.

 

[HHJ]

I really belive khabib stopped the ground n pound in round two and went for the kimura because he wanted to break conor's arm

He was trying to win the fight,and attempted to do so. If the ref told him to break the hold,he would have. Getting disqualified in a fight like that would be horrendous. He would not get the title,and not get a rematch with Conor. Of course,dq's only apply to Conor's opponents,not Conor himself.

Yeah, I think fighters who get emotional and want to prolong beatings on someone probably don't make it as far as the UFC because they struggle to control their emotions.

Maybe it was bad fight iq, but he could just have continued the ground n pound an won by tko he just stopped and went for the kimura it was really strange

Its not just emotions. Anyone with enough experience should know from jump,not to really entertain such notions. Go in there and win the fight.

Bad fight IQ? CMON SON.
He had Conor right where he wanted him,why not attempt a kimura and see if he can get it?
Barring the illegal knee,what was Conor gonna do about it?

He also has more sub wins than tko wins, so it's not like it's weird for him to go for a sub if he sees it, a lot of this stuff is instinct.

Because thats a risky move, if you have a guy rocked and in a bad position especially when you're standed up and the guy on the ground why would you go to side mount and attenpt a subimission? He just needed to keep going but yeah i don't belive it was fight iq because khabib has very good fight iq. Thats why i belive he wanted to give conor a serious injury, remember that in the end of the fight he didn't want to let go of conor

 

[HHJ]

I dont remember what the back story is,but Aoki fought somebody with the intention of humilation. I think the guy may have said he would not tap to Aoki,so Aoki purposley broke the guys arm,when he did not have to,and then stuck the middle finger in his face.

I dont know what was behind all that,but that was one of the worst displays of unsportsmanlike conduct i have seen.

I mean he was trapped...its not like Conor can do anything about it,he had to cheat.

I haven't watched the fight in ages, but I can't remember whether it was that, or that he wouldn't tap and Aoki had to break his arm and he was pissed off about that.

Its not risky WHATSOEVER if you are Khabib on top and Conor is underneath.

Aoki did not have to break the guys arm. If you watch the fight,he fully intended to break the guys arm because he knew he wouldnt tap. He wasnt hesitating to break it.

 

[HHJ]

Its not the first time hes done some shit like that either.

 

[Richard Fannin]

Sakuraba was completley clowning Nino Schembri and paid the ultimate price,and that guy was barely an mma fighter.

To be fair, Sakuraba was victim of horrible reffing in that bout; the ref didn't see the blatlant headbutt Schembri landed right on Saku's face, which allowed him to throw these follow up knees.

For what it's worth, I really don't thing Elvis head-butted Saku on purpose, he bounced back on the ropes and their heads clashed... but Sak was the one who got badly rocked from that clash, and the ref did nothing... had it happened nowadays, it would have been immediately overturned as a NC or a DQ loss for Elvis, I think...

If Palhares could hold a leg lock for 25 minutes straight I think he would, gleefully.

 

[ArmenianAssasin]

The idea is absolute stupidity

Once a fighter makes it to the ufc the stakes are so high nobody is going to take any chances like that

Remember
sonnen/Silva
Bektic / Elkins
Overeem / big foot

The tide can turn at any moment

 

[Bangkok ready d1]

Its not risky WHATSOEVER if you are Khabib on top and Conor is underneath.

If you are a fighter don't you want to win the fight? The whole point im making is that he could have won the fight much sooner but he chose to try to break conor's arm even if he couldn't in that round thats a risky move even if conor isn't even close to khabib on the ground. Also try stopping riding khabib so much its fucking with your brain

If you weigh it up from the point of view of Khabib in a split second decision. You're on top of Conor McGregor and see an opportunity for a submission. You have a lot of wins by submission and are an extremely high level grappler, meanwhile all of Conor Mcgregor's defeats have been by way of submission.

Why would it be weird for you to decide to go for a sub in that scenario?#

It's like Nog Vs Mir II, Nog could probably have finished by ground and pound, but his instinct is to try and sub the guy, in that case he ends up losing, but I don't believe for a second he did it because he doesn't like Mir, he did it because he's a high level BJJ black belt and that's what his instinct tells him to do in that situation.

I dont understand you. He had way more chance to finish with the Kimura,then with GNP which i just explained is not risky whatsoever for Khabib on anybody,especially Conor. What is the risk? What is Conor going to do to stop it?

And furthermore, War Khabib
