"There’s no way possible to ready Khabib for Conor's striking" --- Javier Mendez

If you can’t even enjoy watching a fighter getting wrecked and crying like a little girl you’re obviously a biased fanboy who can’t deal with the negative side of fighting. You don’t want to see Conor scar Aldo for life therefore you’re biased against that very outcome. Stop being in denial. I enjoy all outcomes even if fighters come out with broken body parts and brain damage, that’s what makes me so much more unbiased and objective tha you are.

Christ, you’re a bigger POS than I thought you were. Id rather laugh at scumbags like you, than people giving it their all. You’re a loser in life and it shows in your posts. The bums lost, my condolences.

Stages of Grief:

1. Denial: I’m not biased against Conor!
2. Anger: fuck you you fucking piece of shit loser! <== you are here
3. Bargaining: please god just let Khabib destroy this clown so his dickriders will STFU
4. Depression: posting porn getting banned, pills etc.
5. Acceptance: I hold bitterness in my bum soul against Conor
 
I also think that he has himself completely convinced that he has a great chin. And he is eager to test out that chin against this supposed great, accurate, powerful striker. He may be telling the media that he is going to only grapple. I don’t really believe it. I expect him to take big chances in different points of the fight sticking that damn chin out. I really do.

So ou're saying Khabib is eager to test his chin and get punched in the face by Conor? What are you on? Gimme that shit.

Javier Mendez said:
To me [Conor McGregor] is the best standup guy in the whole UFC, in my opinion,”
He’s got incredible relaxation, he approaches it like a scientist, he knows how to read you, he knows how to bait you…he knows how to put you right into that trap and before you know it you’re caught sleeping.

“He’s a master, in my opinion, on the fighting arts and he’s also got a ground game — he’s good everywhere. I’m not sleeping on how great he is. I’m prepared for everything but he is a great fighter
There’s no amount of time that we have that’s going to help us to try and get him to stand up, there’s no way possible. So, I’m not gonna say, ‘Oh yeah, we’re gonna get him ready’… come on…wake up…it ain’t gonna work,” he said. “We have to fight our strengths, we have to find ways of opening the doors to where his weaknesses are and likewise. This is basically the classic grappler versus striker fight. Keep in mind that they can both grapple and they can both strike, it’s just one is better than the other at (each discipline).

Looks like they're going to spam TDs first 2 rounds, try to gas Conor & then strike

Interesting quote:

Jav said:
“We’re the better grappler, he’s the better striker, but that doesn’t mean we won’t strike, it just means he’s better. It’s about who plays whose game.”

On Al Iaquinta performance:

Javier Mendez said:
In the first two rounds, he fought exactly like we wanted him to. In the third round, what happens? Nope, he does one takedown, he shot once — he chains takedowns he never just does one shot — and then he started comfortable hitting Iaquinta with the jab. His chin up high, he wasn’t moving his head right. Khabib was doing all the things you aren’t supposed to do, but yet, he was still out striking him 4-1 if not more. He was comfortable doing that but I was not happy with that because I told him, ‘You’re going to get comfortable hitting him, I don’t want you to do that’. He does that for the first few rounds and then finally I tell him, ‘Obviously, you’re not going to listen to me and your father, but do me a favor, do half of what you want to do and do half of what we want’. I said, ‘Okay, can you do that for me?’ and he said, ‘Yeah’, so that’s why you’ll notice in the fifth round he took him down again. He did the takedown and then he did the standup like he wanted it

On the fact that Jav can't control Khabib & JK can't control Conor

Jav said:
I can mention a few times where Khabib has done things I don’t want him to do, so guess what? He’s going to do what he wants to do with Conor. And Conor’s gonna do what he wants to do, and I don’t think John Kavanagh is going to be able to control what Conor will do, just like I won’t be able to control what Khabib will do.

“Look, these are two great fighters and they’re going to do what they’re going to do. Our job is to get them as prepared as possible, but come fight time they’re going to do what they’re going to do. For all I know, Khabib could stand with him and I’ll be screaming my head off thinking, ‘What is he doing?’

“If that’s what he wants to do, that’s what he’ll do. Obviously, that’s not what I want, I want nothing to do with Conor’s stand-up…he’s too good.”

Full Podcast:



Khabib's striking is incredibly underrated. Especially Khabib's defensive guard.

IDKY people think it's a given that Conor KO a 100 kilo man who's been living at altitude most of his life. But 200 lbs men cutting 50 pounds to make LW cannot sustain consistent body attacks. Conor needs to go to the body early and often.​
 
I got Rubberneck76 and LouisBolanos to like the same post. You guys are best buds admit it. Or its just Louis arguing with his alt account to create fake popcorn smh.
I like everything even posts calling me a pos because I am a very mature and unbiased observer and I enjoy both sides of the argument. @Rubberneck76 seems like a very angry and biased person whose negativity prevents him from enjoying good popcorn.
 
No shit

"There is no possible way to prepare Conor for Khabib's ground game"

~~Kenny Florian
 
Welp, that's it. Might as well cancel the fight now.

McGOAT is the greatest ever!!!! Head clean off!!! 26 -1!




Am I doing it right, McFanboys? lmao
 
Khabib already said he wasn't going to stand with Conor.
 
Khabib has good fundamentals to keep him from being knocked out. This fight is his.
 
seems like jav is trying to get in khabib's head about not trying that silly shit

jav has a seriously healthy amount of respect/fear of conor, he just wants khabib to have some of that too

smart
 
Coach being honest to his fighter is the best thing possible. No false hope.

Khabib knew he had the Al fight in the bag and went of course.
 
Maybe Conor will shoot a double immediately and turn the tables.
 
Mendez ain’t putting up no bulletin board material.
 
Great attitude by Javier, and bad news for Conor. Having a coach that doesn't underestimate the opponent, and isn't blind to his fighter's weaknesses, is way worse (for McGregor) than if Javier was convincing Khabib that he could outstrike Conor.
