Conor needs to fight Gaethje. Better stylistic matchup.
Saying it like it is
GOAT.
Love Justin hope he wins the title inshallah
Let him maul McGregor once more to hit 30.
Khabib literally said that whoever beats Dustin he will fight. McGregor will do that.
What I said or what he said?Saying it like it is
Don't think Khabib has that
Khabib literally just retired. He said that neither of them deserve it.
We'll see...
Tony showed is is overrated by getting demolished by Gaethje.Never getting that Tony fight.
Great fight but I fear for Justin in the first 2 rounds of that fight. Survive that and he can KO Conor in the last 3.
Lightweight goat.
Nah man I think he is a pretty straight forward guy and said he gave his mother his word. I'd be amazed if that isn't it for him.
What you said!
That really was the perfect way to go out. A dominant performance and finish against “the most violent man in the UFC”.
Stood with him without fear, gassed him in a round, took him down, and the finish was absolutely seamless. He is very special.
In a funny way, the whole McGregor story was a blessing in disguised. It thrust him into the spotlight in a massive way and shone a deserved light on his phenomenal abilities.

Naive comment
Wouldn't take a fighter announcing retirement seriously most times, let alone in an emotional post-fight state.
Khabib ain't coming back lads, man like him won't break promise to his mum
He should fight GSP
I'll be shocked if it's genuine.
Blown away by Khabibs performance.
He gave his mother his word. He aint coming back to UFC.
McGregor must be delighted with that announcement
Why? That's his mega-money fight potentially gone.
I think some are underestimating how important a mans word is from Khabibs background. You will not see him in a cage again.
2 judges gave Gaethje the 1st
Mate, he's a fecking prizefighter. If the offer is big enough, he will fight again.
Khabib was on a mission and emotionally fuelled tonight. That level of aggression is not the usual. Prepping for this version of Khabib is not what Gaethje's camp could've done.
Not sure how long that power up would've lasted for, but it's immaterial since Gaethje was completely overwhelmed by it.
This level of Khabib is like a computer game character. Super Kong.

Its more that he gave his mother a promise, for a Muslim that's pretty much unbreakable.
Him and McGregor on the street it is
roud Khabib Fanboy casual getting excited again
What predictions?
I think Khabib wins in the 2nd. And it will be quite brutal because he will be so focused.
And then khabib will break down in tears and his proper grief recovery period can begin
nailed it days ago, even down to the tears and emotions.
What an amazing way to win. GOAT.
gutted it’s the end of Khabibs career as he was the sole reason i became interested in UFC.
I was going to post this. It’s a completely different culture. His relationship with his father was everything too. He is a national hero and a very wealthy man On top of that.
It looked very like the reaction and decision of a man who had decided this long before tonight. He was laser focused on a finish for his last fight.
Yeah I don’t think he will come back. Even if retirements in MMA and boxing are usually bullshit. I don’t think he would say he won’t fight again to his mum and go back on it.
Anyway, the ‘most violent man’ looked extremely average in there. Khabib took all his confidence away pretty quick

Really? Khabib dominated that round bar the legs kicks2 judges gave Gaethje the 1st
What's the story?
Seriously?2 judges gave Gaethje the 1st
Khabib is the GOAT.
I was never a fan of the UFC until I heard about him. It was a pleasure following his career.
