so Conor talked all this **** at the press conferences when his foot was broken ?

[TR1]

I don't see a lot of attention being brought on the fact he's lying about his 'intense' weight cut as well.


His nutrition specialist said Conor weighed 171 lbs in the cage, which is around the same weight he was during the beginning of his training camp...
"In terms of cutting, it was an easy day."

Months after the fight, Conor claims the cut was so intense he couldn't sleep for days because of it...

The guy lies to the mother of his children, how could someone thing he is above lying to the dopes that are his fans lol

 

[legedema]

Conor can only talk in the presser ,
when Khabib asked him to talk during the fight he only said it's just business

in other words Conor shit on canvas

 

[sherdogwantedtonamemekiki]

Anyone tried walking on a broken foot? You fucking limp.

 

[MEAN357]

It'd probably depend on nature of the injury...if you can still play your game without it affecting said injury then it just comes down to how confident you were to keep the fight in that style. I could understand that as an intelligent decision based on a risk/reward type mentality.


But not a broken foot or something that crazy....that's just asking for trouble. You aren't even giving yourself a fair shot.

I didn't hear that about Sage but it wouldn't surprise me....even in those 30 or so seconds he looks like shit moving around, i don't know if that's physical or the movements of Alexandre because Alexadre hunted him down like a wild animal....that was the shit nightmares are made of, one of my worst fears in boxing is someone hunting my ass and shooting me down like that lol

It's definitely a stupid decision but I think ego plays a huge part. Also depends on the time frame of when it happens. If its s few weeks before the fight I don't think McGregor would of had the luxury of pulling out of a grudge match like that. All the shit talk would be unbearable.

Sometimes you make judgment calls that don't work out and fighters are the type of people to try and push those boundaries. Look at guys like osp and Franklin who broke their arms in the cage and kept scrapping. Faber broke his hands and fought the rest of the fight, Jones lost a toe, mcg blew his knee etc.

Fighters make a living pushing their physical limits usually to their detriment. Not saying I buy the broken foot excuse without x rays just saying it wouldn't surprise me.

Also ya RIP sage lol that's a career ender for sure.

It was just a bruised foot.

its only bruises

 

[MMAFAN2]

Yes, that fake Brock excuse! When he lost 9 ft of his intestines just so he had an excuse ready.

i'm a brock fan,but what i meant is: if brock was fighting frank mir again for example instead of ubereem and cain,he would have won again
so the disease is not everything

He couldn’t sleep because of the cocaine

 

[GiSP]

I'm not usually one to accept excuses but something was seriously off with Conor once he started making his walk to the octagon.
Didnt the commentators or Florian or somebody comment about or allude to am issue that will effect the fight too.

I’m pretty sure what you’re referring to was the bullshit that supposedly happened backstage. ie, his family threatened, etc.

Every bit of it was and is bullshit.

 

[g*r*b]

You expected him to announce a broken foot in a Presser?

"Yeh I got a broken foot, so Khabib, would ya mind not stepping on it while we're fighting tooth and nail for any advantage we can get in the cage...."

 

[MirRocksFedor]

he said that he broke his foot 2.5 weeks before the fight
forget that he used his foot in the open workouts
The First Press Conference in New York when he talked all this shit was on Sep 20, 2018
that was 2 weeks before the fight.the last press conference in vegas,megan olivi interview,other interviews and the weigh ins,he was so confident he was gonna knock out Khabib in the first round

he was so fake.

Wait TS.... you're saying a guy promoting a fight he makes more money based on how many people buy lied about the fight ??????

Crazy

Conor has never made and excuse in his career besides the tongue in cheek 3x my size comment. He has always owned up to his loses and the 1st Diaz fight really showed it. He said he knew was injured prior to Mendes and a bunch of people calling bullshit, then footage came out showing the injury.

I’m inclined to think he hurt his foot similar to jamming or a sprain. I doubt his foot was broke, but I don’t think it mattered much anyways. Khabib will always get Conor down and sap the cardio. Conor’s only chance to victory is a early finish like the Aldo fight but since Khabib shoots from a fucking mile away, Khabib is already below striking height before he even gets his hands on someone.

 

[LonesomeGael]

Conor has earned the right to talk shit. His resume is far more impressive then Khabib's. So he lost the fight after a 2 year layoff and a serious injury, big deal. He's the better fighter, it's not even close.

 

[GordonMMARamsey]

Conor is full of shit. And him talking about a rematch with Khabib is embarrassing. He will never beat Khabib. It wont happen. There's no point in a rematch.

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

Funny how this came to light months after.

That is called excuse making. Which his fans take as cold hard fact.

 

[wake_me]

if Rogan calls Conor humble on defeat again I'll smh.

Max is the epitome of humble in defeat

Pretty sure he did the same thing when he fucked his knee up before the Mendes fight . It's just mental warfare he plays . Show no weakness . What did u want him to act like he was questioning himself heading into a title fight?

 

[Satan's Daddy.]

Even on EPO, Conor can't beat Khabib.

 

[Taric]

If his foot was legitimately broken the pre-fight doctors from the commission wouldn't have allowed the fight to happen. That shit is illegal. He could've had some torn muscles or a sprain or something though, which essentially every fighter that fights is walking in with too so why even bring it up.

 

[MEAN357]

Dunno, buncha chechens / dagestanis threatening to murder someone's family / children sounds pretty fucking plausible LOL

I dont think it would change the result of the fight, Conor wasn't gonna keep it standing, but dagestanis and chechens aren't exactly the most reasonable people.
