Agree completely...NO REMATCH....Khabib would have an even easier time with him so what is the point of that. Khabib is a master at what he does and he has been doing it for decades. Conor could fight him 10 more times and he would lose 10 more times. I blame Dana White and UFC for letting Conor make fun of Khabibs religion, father, nationality, the way he speaks english and for calling him a mad backwards cunt several times. Khabib is a nice , respectful guy but heès also a proud man, not a piece of shit. I knew he would maul Conor and I AM SOOOO HAPPY HE DID JUST THAT....

Why did ufc advertise the fight with the bus incident

[@earlyearlybird]

did you watch this video or what? you dummy

[@captainbuzzkill4658]

It was a huge part of the buildup. It wasn't pretty, but the fact is it happened. There was footage all over the internet already. They're not hurting anything by using the footage to build up the fight. They basically used a negative and turned it into a positive. They don't condone this type of thing but you can't argue that it's good publicity. People love drama. I bet a lot of people who don't even watch fights tuned in because of the bus attack. Love it or hate it they'd be fools from a business standpoint not ti use the footage

[@kjdnyhmghfvb]

The moment that the UFC decided to use it, they condoned that behavior. it doesn't matter that it was online anywhere else. They used the footage, and did not punish Conor, which means they condoned it, and the UFC is not supposed to do that. They let it get to far, and never once tried to correct Conor.

As a big fan of the UFC and always backed up Dana when others were saying he’s bias. Dana has really crossed the line this time.

Dana should stand behind his fighters more and stop throwing them under the bus. I lost a lot of respect for him today

[@joejitsu034]

July Stylez About damn time bro.

[@camdevtube]

Uhh, he was the bad guy. Conor was the bad guy during the bus incident and Khabib was the bad guy at 229. How are you going to get mad at Dana for showing bias toward Conor but then you turn around and show bias toward Khabib? Both fighters behaved unprofessionally. You guys spent all the months leading up to this fight claiming Khabib was the more mature man in this situation but he failed to prove that, instead he stooped to Conor's level and proved he's no better. There's no justification for what either of them did. You lost respect for Dana but you never said you lost respect for Khabib hopping out of the ring and starting a brawl in the crowd. If you only get mad at unprofessional behavior when Conor does it you are a hypocrite.

[@Gruntled2001]

Camdevtube: Conor committed a pre-meditated assault. He flew 6 hours with a bunch of goons to cause trouble in Brooklyn -- all calculated and carried out with a lot of forethought. Khabib lost his cool in the spur of the moment, after months of insults by Conor. Conor got rewarded for being a thug by getting this fight. Bottom line, a good ol' Irish boy causes mayhem -- he's a "rebel" and a "badass". Khabib loses his cool and unleashes on one other person -- he's a thug all of a sudden. Hypocrisy much??

conor is an islamic stooge. this was setup. and if conor is not an islamic stooge, it was clear anyway that conor was way too emotionally hyped for this. all the false confidence and false ego fed to him for over the year by other fans of muslim charactor, played an important part. he had lost the fight i would say six months prior to it ever took place. As such, with every person khabib has faced, they were either islamic stooges or their confidence and ego altered and them made emotionally high. the next in line, fergusson, already looks like a stooge. not discrediting that khabib is not a good fighter. but he is just another man. he may be a little better then other men, or a little worse. but when his opponents are fed false confidence and false ego well before the fight, the results will superficially go one way. And to be honest, if connor did not absorb all the false praises and **** he was fed, this fight would have never taken place or postponed indefinitely. Cause khabib is just a false face of a rat army that works behind the scenes non stop.

Grand Pu regardless of what could of been Conor had the right to punch someone who is in the octagon when they shouldn’t be. He doesn’t know if that person is going to try hoping the cage to help khabib cause more damage to his team. It’s self defense weather he is apart of Khabibs team or not Conor may not know. As a athlete if a brawl has started and a random person is within punching range of you inside the area where the athlete plays they have every right to defend themself if they feel threatened by that person. Conor had just got out of a fight he got wore down and beaten in, and then gets up to find out his teammates are being attacked and random people are rushing through the octagon to try getting there, Conor is allowed to defend himself and his team by throwing that punch.

This sport is about fighting and words have meaning beyond selling PPVs, whisky and podcasts and you can be asked to answer for yours. Not a novel idea and not an unreasonable one. And no, publicly calling someone's dad you have never met "backwards c*nt", "smelly terrorist rat", "quivering coward" just to make money off it is neither "freedom of speech" nor "a stroke of genius", it never was.

Khabib finished fight with 99 SG-Str 4 TD 1KD Conor finished fight with 34 Sg-Str 0 TD 0KD This was all on UFCs site, all the suddenly UFC site brakes down and wont open scores only for Khabib-Conor fight. And then all the numbers are changed to: Khabib 70 SG-Str 3 TD 1KD Conor 51 Sg-Str 0 TD 0KD WTFFFFF MAAAAAANN This is such a disgrace and disgusting shit, lowering your Champions performance so Danas boyfriend doesnt look so bad?! Even after all the illegal shit he pulled in the octagon and still got some proper beating? UFC become such a shitty organisation, Dana and Conor should both leave the MMA, they turned it into WWE circus.. Please share this everywhere u can, whole mma community should know about this shit!

Nikola Stamenkovic Fuck for real if was goofball Conor nothing would have happened

[@tivadarus]

Lol r u serious? if they leave it will collapse; have u seen the crappy numbers ufc 228 did?

[@conormcgregorsretrdedfggot7780]

Nikola Stamenkovic bro.... we need to do something about that, dana white needs to be fired, you know if we can make na online petition about that?

[@R-Will]

Wow. Seems to be setting up a rematch but completely lying about fight stats that millions have seen. Maybe C.J. Ross helped with the scoring.

[@djdb7655]

Dana suporting McGregor is the first mistake

[@miles8361]

Well said, Dana white id trash

[@dtm7909]

Dana will never let Khabib maul Connor again. He will hope that Khabib gets suspended or he will put Khabib against other opponents hoping he will loose.

[@fozpringle1]

Poster child of ufc, he always laughs when conor does something stupid, he aint laughing now, he's like a scared kid.

[@jev2867]

Well, Conor is their cash cow. It's all about money.

[@sameera3600]

Yup... Naked partiality is clearly evident...

Message to Dana White , what khabib did after the fight was great for UFC, He bought in millions of fans to the UFC in one night,I'm talking about people who never seen or didn't want to see Ufc fights, trust me if their is part 2 of this fight then you knew you are making millions on this fight, You know better and thank you for UFC.

[@aky19832001]

Dana white needs to answer for this caos! he's allowing athletes to behave like this under contract! This has turned into a promotion for Khabib vs McGregor 2. McGregor doesn't deserve a rematch. He was dominated, crushed, mauled, chew up and spat out. McGregor needs to move back down in weight. There was no fight between Khabib and McGregor. Khabib dominated him so bad, you can hear McGregors head getting thumped on by those hammer fist of Khabib. Al Iaquinta deserves a rematch before this disrespectful, poorly conditioned, tapping out drunk Bum does. H'es disgusting as an human. He makes Jon Jones seem cool. And that's hard to do. Al went all 5 rounds, didn't make a fuss, he stopped takedowns, landed shots and overall was a much superior athlete. McGregor tried to attack Aldo. McGregor threw bottles at Diaz. McGregor attacked a bus and nearly blinded a person. McGregor insulted Khabib’s dad and his religion. Bunch of hypocrites. No one calls him out for this

@@hectorl4487 thank you for putting another drunk Irish in reality check.

[@zainrazvi8044]

@News that matter Lol, you think Al Iaquinta deserves a rematch? Why would you want to see a rematch between the two fighters, Khabib would just do the exact same thing as he did last time, but he would beat him worse. In their last fight, Al Iaquinta didn't do anything, Khabib just used him as a punching bag and rearranged his face. I'm surprised Al Iaquinta didn't get major brain damage. So yeah, the only person who deserves a fight against Khabib is Tony Ferguson.

[@zainrazvi8044]

@@aky19832001 I mean, tbh, Dana White is money hungry, so he might be crazy enough to book a rematch between Conor and Khabib, but if that's going to happen, I want to at least see Tony Ferguson vs Khabib, because let's be honest, Conor already got his shot at Khabib, so I think it's fair to say that Tony Ferguson deserves a shot against Khabib.
