The MMA thread

McGregor needs to stop Eddie, quickly. Even if Eddie has his way with him in the grappling exchanges and Conor still eeks out a decision, there'd be no way he could stop Khabib's grappling. He'd have to hope he catches him rushing in.

I think if mcgregor wins tonight he's done. Hel have his faculties about him and he would likely get hurt badly v khabib unless he tapped early. Might be being harsh on him but Conor avoids ground experts for a reason, and khabib is unlike anyone else he's too good.

What ground experts has he avoided? Genuine question, I can't really think of anyone he's had the opportunity to fight and hasn;t.

UFC won't make the same mistake with McGregor as they did with Ronda, letting her in with Holly.

So i'm not the only one who thinks Holly would beat him?
Cool, wasn't expecting that :)
 
So close on ko, then almost choke him twice...
Fantastic!
 
Prelims been good. could really been a fight night card and no one would complain. let's see what the main card brings!

If it ended now you'd be very happy with the event
