I thought Artem started that shit?

Yeah he called him a pussy from memory
Didn't do it with 10 guys standing behind him tho, did he say it in a vid?
I can't remember

Either way
Bring this on I say

McGregors been awfully quiet about the whole thing really

 

[PoppedCorn]

Looks like we have another Conor fan boi.

Much tougher to turn up with 30 guys and a camera to film it

I like plenty of fighters
Dislike a few too
Gsp fanboi, nate fanboi, robbie, max, conor, tcity fanboy

Fanboi....lol
Its like we're 10 years old here



What did khabib think would happen
Of course conors gonna go one better lol

 

[Barry Roundhouse]

this is the translated answer that Artem gave in an interview on Russian tv about stepping up and responding to Khabib calling McGregor 'chicken'.

No wonder Khabib wanted to have a chat.

We don't know how many guys were actually with Khabib, but it's irrelevant really.. like ive said - it wasn't a planned meeting. Khabib would've had the same chat if it was just the two of them.

 

[PoppedCorn]

We're talking like it's the first time a fighter trash talked lol
Has to be the worst comment I've ever read trashing another fighter
I'm surprised no ones in tears and hasnt sued
Lol

Should've said pussy not chicken then khabib couldve asked why he called him a cat

 

[PoppedCorn]

We don't know how many guys were actually with Khabib, but it's irrelevant really.. like ive said - it wasn't a planned meeting. Khabib would've had the same chat if it was just the two of them.

Now we're guessing, he might have confronted him he might not have, morethan likely would've said something but we don't know that
And there is footage of it happening and it was a few guys, not heaps like people make out

What id be pissed about is that he laid hands on him by grabbing him behind the neck
Sure get close, go an inch from his face and ask but don't grab the guy imo

 

[DazalenkoUBewty]

Plenty get called out for their trash talking too.

Educated guess. Khabib is a straight shooter.

 

[PoppedCorn]

No doubt
Don't grab the guy tho (just my opinion)
I don't think Conor really deserves a shot anyway
Should have to work his way up like others
Would want to have been practicing takedown defense since the flloyd fight
Gonna need it

Love it. Winner of that gets winner of Khabib v Conor? Hopefully we get Conor v Nate 3 and Cody beats the snake this weekend and we get Cody v the Snake 3 too.

 

[Ry009]

and we get Cody v the Snake 3 too.

It's win/win in that regard, if the Snake gets up, then it's most likely him vs DJ champ vs champ.

I think Cody wins. Looked well in control and then the worst thing that could have happened for Cody was for him to knock down Tj at the end of round 1. His mindset and style changed and he suffered because of it.

I was leaning this way but then I watched Dan Hardy's breakdown on the UFC youtube channel. Really made me reconsider.

either way, its such an amazing fight.

 

[DazalenkoUBewty]

Would prefer Dustin had his next fight for the title, but this is about the next best thing.
Another grind coming up..

[DazalenkoUBewty]

Starts 23 mins in..

[deklares]

I liked this pearl of wisdom..

 

[deklares]

 

[Dan]

This is getting silly...

 

[Barry Roundhouse]

I see people are already getting up in arms about the use of the bus attack as a way of pumping the fight...

how dumb do you have to be? its an unavoidable, huge part of the narrative.

 

[Barry Roundhouse]

This is getting silly...

i thought that fight was on 230 anyway? and Mac v Khabib is 229?

i suspect Nate is dumb as dog shit and Dustin is taking the piss haha

 

[deklares]

There is footage of Nate Diaz getting up from the press conference and leaving once the Conor/Khabib promo came on LOL
