>> No.11241256

it's actually a tough bet, could go either way

if khabib manages a takedown on conor it's pretty much over, the likelihood of a takedown is high, but if conor catches khabib on the jaw while he's going in for the take, conor will easily win

Only way i see Conor winning is by tko in the first two rounds. If the fight goes the distance, Khabib will win.
In general id say 60/40 in favor of Khabib.

i think he knows better than to try that shit against Conor. Even if you're not a fan, hes probably the best striker in the division and one of the top in the UFC; khabib knows this.

Khabib eats heavy punches in his fights. Someone like McGregor, with 1-punch knockout power, stands a chance of KOing him.
Not to mention, the UFC is now officially partnered with Proper Twelve ™® Proper Irish Whiskey © , which is a clear financial incentive to favour McGregor if the fight goes to a decision.

Personally, I wouldn't bet on this fight except to lay a Khabib win by KO

who cares about finishes, have you even seen the way khabib fights? he incapacitates his opponent like a scorpion with its venom then mauls you to exhaustion. if conor falls victim to his takedown, he's not going to come back from it, he'll get beaten down, and that's IF khabib doesn't manage a RNC like nate diaz did in his fight

the result is so obvious

Thats a good point. If it goes to decision the judges are gonna be in Conors favor big time. Pretty sure when it goes to decision it'll be pretty obvious domination on khabibs part though.

Conor basically has to knock him out to beat him. I dont see any other way of him winning.

Conor McGregor rattled Kalabeebs cage but few realize it yet.

It hasn't looked like it in any of the interviews or the presser but it happened. Conor specifically targeted Kadyrov, the Chechen war criminal dictator who Kalabeeb is cozy with, which will put tremendous pressure on Kalabeeb to make an example of Conor during the fight. It may no longer be okay to get a decision on Conor. Kalabeeb may be hearing "Break his face for us. He disrespected our people. He disrespected your leader. Make him bleed and tap. Decision is not enough." Kalabeeb is emotionally made of granite, but he lives in a powerfully honor bound land with powerful rulers who he must obey.

That's the kind of pressure that gets a fighter to make a split second error in judgement that veers away from a safe path to dominance and into the risk that may net a bloody satisfying end. Conor purposefully sets these moments up during these interviews and pressers so he can capitalize in the ring. The world learned through Aldo.

Bet McGregor. Risky bet but why the fuck you betting if you don't take the risks.

MindSmash has a good couple breakdowns on Conor, Khabib, and their presser that will give you more insight into their characters than you can get from most fans.

This is their recent press conference. At 25 mins Khabib mentions his plan is to win by decision and win every round. But I doubt the words of his countrymen, family, and leaders will let that game plan stay so safe.

Yeah, if it goes to decision and they give it to Connor it will undoubtedly be the biggest robbery in UFC history, worse than sonnen/silva

Think about this guys, every round starts standing up, Conor has a huge advantage there. Khabib will likely take at least a few shots and coming from Conor that'll be very dangerous for him. Khabib has fought like what, 2 people in the top 15 lightweight division? And no one with the skillset that Conor possesses. I really want to see Khabib win because he'll be a much more active champion but I really don't think it looks great for him in this fight.

Dude come on man, I'm a Connor fan but let's be honest that presser was a loss both ways. Without the crowd Connor seemed visibly nervous and shaken, yeah he rattled khabib a bit for sure but he came across as a nervous pretty wreck. It wasn't the usual natural confidence eminating from him, it was very forced.

Khabib is a much surer bet than the odds suggest. It's worth it to roughly get a 70% return on your money.

>> No.11243147

>>11243111
Khabib has faced a dozen strikers, and he's ragdolled them all. Look at Johnson or barboza, they got rekt and rekt badly.

Connor has faced one good wrestler, Mendes, and he barely survived.

>>11243111
If khabib gets the takedown early in the round Conor will be sapped of energy. His standup will fade as well as the TD defense. Conor has to weaken khabib right out the gate. Khabib has time to do his work (as long as he doesn't get early damage or KOed)

>> No.11243158

This. Khabib has so many more ways to win, entropy is on khabibs side. Connor has to maintain distance and knock him out early. Just unlikely unless khabib lunges erratically

Don't be fooled that McGregors theatrics as merely barking. It's all calculated attacks to unbalance his opponents and enrage the support system around his opponent.

McGregor was practicing the specific counter before walking out to the ring that KO'd Aldo. Everything from the trash talk to the counter was planned, and the counter wouldn't have been there without the trash talk.

>> No.11243181

>>11243163
Aldo was baited much more easily than khabib will be. Khabjb knows McGregor's playbook now, he's gonna be cautious and pick the shot. When he gets the takedown Connor is done.

McGregors purpose in that pressor was to create a media splash to jack up the PPV buys, and to find a chink in Khabibs armor, or Khabibs support system. If you can't fire up the opponent, you can light a fire under him through his support system.

Conor set an expectation early in his career for bringing wildness to pressers. He's been jacking up the energy each presser since so that it stays effective in helping him create the media cannonball he wants. Without the crowds energy to help him draw out taunts and barbs McGregor had to inject all the energy himself and keep doing so. Khabib surely won't do it because he's got the charisma of a potato so all that was left for McGregor to do. Conors talked about this a lot in interviews.
