    McGregor Nurmagomedov Oct 6th is going to be off the charts, as long as they both stay healthy. I can't pick a winner for this. Usually I go Connor. I don't think he can shake Khabib mentally. Which is half of CM's game. And if Khabib gets him to the mat, game over. Connor's ground game was already shown to be piss poor against Diaz. Facing any wrestler is a bad matchup for him. Facing possibly the BEST wrestler in the game? Eesh. This could be bad for McGregor. 
    I wouldn't be so sure it's game over for Khabib if he gets Connor on the ground. Ig Al Iquainta(sp) can last 25 minutes with Khabib, Connor can def do that. I got Connor winning this in round 4 by KO
    Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight
    Sammi: Wanna just break up?

    Connor's ground game is abyssmal. Diaz proved that. Khabib is on the same wrestling level, if not higher, than DC. And I doubt Connor's been learning how to wrestle every day the last year.

    Agreed, but Al exposed that. Al is barely a middle of the road fighter and lasted 25 minutes with a supposed world class fighter. I really don't wanna see connor win, I hope the douche gets choked out, but he's at the top for a reason.

    Al exposed what? He lasted, but Khabib was playing with him the entire fight. It was embarassing from what I recall.

    Dude fucked up. He won the fight. No need to go after people afterwards. He took all the shine off his impressive performance.

    I guess when you grow up in Whereeverthefuckistan, dodging Islamic and Soviet skirmishes, maybe selling bad blood to spike views gets lost in translation.

    Oh yeah, that was messed up at the end. Not condoning it, but McGregor had it coming for the stuff he said before this and his other fights. I know a lot of it is hype but it becomes real life when there are real world consequences. Only watched one angle, but he was the first person to throw a punch in the ring.

    Bunch of McGregor fans are calling for Khabibs head and talking about how Mcgregor is a true champ. Give him a fine and let him kick Connors ass again. The stuff outside was broke up pretty fast. Didn’t seem like anything really happened before security swarmed.

    Everyone involved in that embarrassing scene is a dumbass.  Mcgregor is a clown but Khabib isn't much better jumping out of the cage to fucking attack someone after he won...what a joke.

    Agreed, but I will say there's a big difference in a fighter attacking another fighter with a gloved disadvantage and jumping in the cage bareknuckled to cheap shot a guy with gloves on.  That's the biggest asshole of the night.
