Haha you must've been in the sauna with the little fellaThat must be why they warned him to be ready and he had been training and easily made weight. Lmao

***Signs that the UFC will switch Ferguson in to fight Khabib at the last minute***
1. Ferguson "miraculously recovered" from his "freak leg injury"
2. The UFC put Ferguson on the same card as Khabib vs. Conor
3. Khabib vs. Conor have had VERY little promotional effort behind it... this is quite strange considering this is Conor's supposed "return after many years to reclaim 'his belt'"... WHERE ARE THE HYPES?
The last time when Conor fought Aldo and Mayweather, the UFC did MONTHS of heavy promotions, world tours, trailers, etc..
Where are the official UFC promos for Khabib vs. Conor? Where are the world tours?
protecting him from Chad Mendes?? Chad was not ready, Chad was the easiest opponent they could find to reason that conor is first contender. 2 weeks Chad was a gift from the UFC to conorJust like they protected him from Chad Mendes on short notice with a knee injury? LMAO
If we're going by their histories if anyone is pulling out of 229 it's going to be Khabib or Tony.
Back in 2016, based on the UFC's past patterns of protecting certain fighters, I predicted that if McGregor wins the LW title, the UFC would help him hold 2 belts hostage:

The exact thing happened.
Now that the UFC has announced Conor's return to fight Khabib - after ducking him like the plague for 2 years - something does not seem right. There are signs* pointing to the UFC's potential switch-bait Khabib with Conor/Ferguson:
The UFC will have Conor pull out at the very last minutes and have Ferguson step in to fight Khabib.
What are the UFC's motivations?
1. Protect Conor from his worst match-up (Khabib)
2. Use Ferguson (the worst matchup for Khabib) to take Khabib out
3. If / when Ferguson wins the belt, have Conor fight him.
Stylistically, Ferguson is more of a stand-up striker, so Conor has a better chance at beating him than he is at beating Khabib.
Literally can't spell the name of a man you're giving expert analysis about, a name that you've read on here countless times, you're doing yourself no favours .Yep
They knew Mendes hadn't been training at all so his cardio would inevitably be terrible because of no training + rapid weight cut. Went down exactly as planned; full camp Mendes works Conner MacGreggor.

Lmao why should’ve Cerrone gotten that fight? He was two months fresh off getting destroyed by RDA. Conor would’ve murdered him, and never had baby junior. Plus Nate beat him too anyways.

Have you seen Tony Ferguson work out?
The kid is a walking injury.
They should just cut him for doing dumb workout routines.
It’s a better fight but a less compelling story. Evens out in the end for me.I actually would rather see McG vs Cucuy to be honest.
That is guaranteed violence.
