Re: UFC 229: Khabib v McGregor

I fear for our Irish friend ...but I think the key to khabib is too plant and move your head and catch him when he lunges at you ...in a bid to drive you backwards towards the cage . Or at least stay in the centre of the octagon .

Mad fight either way .

Don't worry, someone's gonna miss weight or trip on a wire and then we get the most expensive **** card in history

Khabib doesn’t have a good track record of making it to big fights.

I’ll be colored surprised if this fight happens.

Actually, the card is looking pretty decent now.

Smart move to have 4 Lightweight contenders at the top.... you know, in case of...

Anyone watching the press conference or "the first face off"? This should be pretty entertaining to say the least.

Conor McGregor Signs New Eight-Fight Deal With the UFC

McGregor’s deal with the UFC includes sponsorship of his new whiskey brand, Proper Whiskey, which will be sponsored for every McGregor fight within the promotion.

"You bet your bollocks it is," McGregor said, when asked if the logo of his whiskey would be on the Octagon canvas. "On the canvas. On the canvas. Like [Nurmagomedov's] blood will be on the canvas."

“The Notorious” also stands to cash in on pay-per-view points, of which McGregor will receive a portion on every card he headlines.

Re: UFC 229: Khabib v McGregor

Interesting press conference. Conor came in acting a bit unstable, like he wasn’t on his game, yet compensated for this by really forcing his act. He clearly had a lot of script memorization to do; like all the stuff about his new proper 12 whiskey. But it just seemed really forced and unnatural, in an extreme way, like what Colby does. Conor when he’s on his game is usually much more relaxed, and his trash talk is natural.

Khabib seemed way in control, clearly came in way more relaxed and confident. His confidence was exuding so strongly, he actually had Conor verbally asking Khabib to “stop” or “let me talk”. I haven’t seen that since McGregor did it to Mendes at a presser (he had Mendes trying to stop him from talking). Khabib really dominated the psychological aspects of this presser. He was so serious, and adamant on factual discussion, the intensity really penetrated Conor’s front.

Only win for Conor during the presser was the death threats. Basically he said that if Khabib pulls out, Conor will have him killed. It was strongly implied several times. It definitely seemed to concern Khabib.

What it looked like to me was more like a drunk guy and a sober guy arguing. I think the reason Conor seemed so unstable was definitely cuz he was under the influence of something. Whether it be proper 12 or a line of coke lol. As far as intimidation, neither man seemed intimidated by the other really, but they both seemed to get under each others skin with certain comments.

Re: UFC 229: Khabib v McGregor

I highly, highly doubt he was on coke. I'm fairly certain Conor on cocaine is hilarious.

I'm guessing he was near drunk and super annoyed the fans weren't allowed to attended.
