Fighters do that stuff all the time Rez. Are you familiar with some of Tyson or Ali's comments in the run up to fights? I don't know why people keep mentioning him taking the piss out of his religion as if it's the worst thing ever and gives him justification to jump out the ring and attack people, nobody would be saying this **** if a Christian fighter was mocked or even if Khabib called McGregor a terrorist for being Irish.

Conor will beat him in a rematch BTW.

Did you see the whole fight?

If and when it gets scheduled how about a money bet? Khabib dominated Conor last night. Wasn't even close.

Not only did he (predictably) dominate him on the ground, he also won the boxing.

I watched the whole fight this afternoon. Conor will come back and win the rematch. That is what he does.

I'm not doing money bets. I'm not bothered about winning a small amount but would be bothered to lose.

He's only done it once against Diaz. He was winning the first fight until he got clipped and then stupidly tried to shoot against a superior grappler.

His best shot last night was in the first 2 rounds - the announcers noted that he'd never TKO or KOd anyone past the second round. And Khabib easily won both round 1 and 2. Heck, Conor is the superior striker yet he was the only one who ended up on his ass from a punch.

Why would he beat him? What would be any different the second time around? You can't learn a lifetime of grappling in a few months/years.

Why would he need to learn a life time of grappling? Just because Khabib beat him once doesnt mean Conor isn't capable of beating him in the standup game. Two world class fighters, pretty ignorant to claim after 1 fight (that went most of the distance) that one fighter doesnt have the chance of beating the other. And just in case you think I'm some Conor fan, nope, fuck that guy.

He'll beat him because Dana White likes making money and 2 fights make less than 3. UFC promotion is in the gutter ever since he got a taste. People eat this drama shit up, but its not for me.

Also, if youve(anyone) watched any of the post fight interviews and discussions, people seem more pissed about Conor getting punched post fight than what Khabib did.

Did Khabib get his winnings yet?
