Nah fuck that. This dude was talking tons of shit before the fight. Was being disrespectful. Did that goofy white belt shit at the pre fight photo op. Then he went out, did jack shit, and got knocked out. Just shut the fuck up and go train on having a better well rounded repertoire.

I have to say, I wouldn't mind it if Costa knocked Izzy all the way out after that disrespect.  

I think they could fight 50 times and each time Izzy would walk away without a single mark on his face. I know it’s recency bias, but I think we might be talking about adesanya as a guy on the short list for GOAT.

Agreed. And in a rematch Costa will be even more apprehensive to approach for fear of getting his legs blown up again. It's a pointless exercise.

The Cannonier fight is only 3 rd?  Which is great since they'll go all-out

 

Getting more and more excited about the khabib fight by the day.  A big part of khabibs monster wrestling is trapping people against the fence.  Gaethjes primacy in the fight is keeping everything in the center of the octagon - and it's the full size as opposed to the reduced one they've used recently.

 

Really curious how long before khabib can finally get that signature leg wrap thing that he does.  End of 2nd? 3rd round?  Justin is a great kicker but the problem is kicking exposes you to take downs.

WAR GAY CHEESE!

Gaethje said he didn't watch any tape on Khabib to prep for this fight. If that's not pure bullshit then he's about to get dragged to the ground and submitted.

Question for you ESPN+ vets at this point.  How fast is the replay of the fight typically available?  Plan is to purchase, but not watch until normal time (night).  Does ESPN+ typically have the replay up and available for those who purchased right after the broadcast i over?

I'd love to see Gaethje KO the MFer. I just don't think he'll be able to keep Khabib off of him. The guy is a rabid fucking animal. I hope I'm wrong.

The only way to beat Khabib is to bring the offensive wrestling, not just try to escape.

Everyone tries to escape, and everyone gets held against the fence and smeshed. Conor before he gassed was doing an o.k. job in the first round, but his cardio isn't good enough to keep that wrestling up.

Justin isn't the type of guy to use his wrestling, but he's got lots of experience and talent in that department, I don't think he has the gas tank to keep it up though.

Tony was the only guy I thought could have a chance against Khabib, because he is so unorthodox and they actually had an offensive BJJ plan to counter Khabib's wrestling. Offense is the key, I think. Don't just try to escape, once you are engaged go for your own wrestling offense. Also lots of elbow strikes to the side of the head.
