Is it me or does Joanna look better in 5 round fights? I think its her style but 3 rounds she just looked a bit less dominant than usual.
Great fights tonight anyway. Loved that Aldo win.

Mcgregor vs Nurmagomadov (however u spell his last name) is the fight in ufc people have been wanting to see for a long while imo. since C-mac the notorious irishman hasn't defended either of his light-heavyweight or featherweight belts (so i read recently) he gets stripped of both and has to re-claim them within the ufc. so if he beats khabib that would probably give him a belt. funny how he couldn't beat mayweather despite beating aldo so fast who is more or less the same size/build (skinny), but boxing and mma are different rules and even though he got alot of money in payment for fighting vs floyd he wouldn't get any belts. mcgregor has been taking if very slow and patient which is smart of him but he may want to get back to the torrid pace of his earlier career to pick up more belts again. i guess moveing to heavyweight isn't an option he's ever been considering even now.

Khabib is a bad matchup for Conor but Khabib's stand up is meh and Conor is an elite striker so you never know what can happen, that said Khabib gets a unanimous decision win imo.

If the Khabib who fought against Iaquinta shows up then Conor can definitely put him to sleep.

i think if Khabib gets this fight down on the mat he doesn't get a decision win. i think he'll end the fight.

if Khabib makes the same mistakes he made in the Michael Johnson fight then McG will KO him.

Yea it's true Khabib's ground game is godly and Conor probably won't have enough stamina to defend his ground game adequately, a stoppage for Khabib can easily happen too.

I had that 4th round for mighty mouse that fight. Henry did great in that fight but I don't think he did enough after that take down to get the 10-9 for round 4.

i propose this rule change. When a title fight ends up being a split decision with the challenger winning by just 1 judge point when all 3 judge's scorecards are added together i'd allow the champion to keep that belt.

that fight was too close for the champ to lose his belt.
