Khabib looks beatable...Conor would beat him, right?

[truthisfreedom]

So I guess that means Canner stopped ducking and signed the contract?





LOLOL

 

[MayhemMonkey]

when has Conor ever been offered a contract to fight him?

and yes, Conor lays that fool out

 

[mangokush]

Convict gets taken down and subbed within 2 rounds.

 

[Sakuraba7]

Conor has avoided him for 2 years, and avoided him the last 4 months. He should step up or shut up.

Conor still fights?

 

[Usssssyyyy]

Change “would” to “could” and you’re right. It’s a 50/50 fight

 

[SRN]

I really want to see that fight. The fight itself might be not so great but everything else would be so entertaining. Sign the contract Conor!

 

[TemDee]

Conor's stance is too upright, he'd get smashed quick.

 

[faustian]

Lol Canor will never take that fight

When he had a belt?...and 2 people were #1 contenders between each other waiting for their damn title shot?

 

[Law Dog]

You’re a pure bred foqqot..! Congrats on your bloodline..!

 

[DrunkMonkMeth]

Connor has a punchers chance like the rest

 

[TitoViaGNP]

He won 50-43. If that looks beatable we aren't watching the same thing. This fight didn't look different from any of his others

 

[Sapp]

Looked very beatable, still a tough fight for Conor but if Khabib fights like this he might well lay him out.

Mcgregor can't stop the takedowns, has nothing off his back & has terrible conditioning, Mcgregor can ko him in first 2rounds but if he doesn't it's over. Ferguson the only guy in the division i see possibly beating Khabib & it has to be a 5 rounder as well.

nope.... guess again

 

[rerun406]

If Conor thinks he can beat Khabib ... then sign and fight him already

I don't speak for everyone, but all the tough talk by fighters on social media has worn really thin on me.

**instead of slagging someone off with petty insults on the web .... why not just fight and beat them in a pro MMA bout? Simple enough right?

I wouldn't say 50/50. I favor Khabib. But Conor McGregor has a non-trivial chance of KOing Khabib, somewhere in the 20-30% range imo.

His TDD isn't as good as Iaquinta's, but he does maintain range well, and this is a key imo: he doesn't usually go into a shell due to fear of the takedown and he doesn't take half a round to find his range. The Mendes fight shows us that even after being taken down multiple times he committed to strikes including combos and kicks immediately upon getting to the feet. And the Aldo fight showed us he doesn't have to take half a round to warm up before aggressively looking or the kill.

I don't think he survives long on the ground with Khabib though. That's why I favor Khabib. It's hard to imagine the fight never being on the ground against Khabib.

I think Ferguson-Khabib is closer to 50-50, but I still slightly favor Khabib.

Wasn’t much of a fight.
