No point Conor is on a different level now since he's met Aldo. No point going back to FW he'd kill him again.

I think the fight there for him is Holloway or Pettis, but neither can jump Aldo in the queue. He's gonna have to give Aldo another beating, but after that I think he'll just stick to LW.

Conor already tooled Holloway, I think T. Ferg is a better match up because that guy is a zombie with constant forward pressure eating shots. Although I think kebab and t. ferg should fight and the winner get's Conor.

The Holloway fight was a long time ago...I'm not even sure if he was 20 years old when they fought. And Max has decisively beat 9 guys in a row since then. If there is a competitive fight for Connor at FW, its with Max. I think Frankie will be beat just like Eddie...heck, Eddie was probably using the gameplay Frankie would, but that reach is just gonna be too much for him to deal with. If Connor defends the FW title, then most likely Khabib and Tony will fight each other. Tactically, it makes more sense for Connor to beat up on Aldo again just so one of these two will be eliminated from immediate title contention.

And just for pure entertainment value, I'd like to see Connor vs Pettis.

Woodley hedged on his next fight (even tho Dana said a rematch is 'the fight')...and he invited McGregor to go for a 3rd belt.

After that interview Eddie just did I think Conor just took his soul. :(

Eddie said he threw and then a counter from Conor and all he remembers is being on the canvas. Eddie said he's not sure if he's going to return or not.

Great card. The Thompson and woodley fight lived up to my expectations. Just got done watching it and have to agree with the draw. Bring on the rematch.

Khabib post fight backstage interview. He said he told Dana White in between every round with Michael Johnson, he wants a real fight and not some bullsh!t fight again lol. Spoiler: he'll be extremely pissed if he's not fighting for the belt next. (ignore the "Nate Diaz" click bait.)


He's a beast. The way he controlled michael johnson was phenomenal. Trapping his arms etc..

The slo mo of Edgar taking that left kick to the jaw is just brutal. I think it's amazing he kept going after that, let alone getting the win. That guy is insane.

Conor going hamfisted again too, grats Eire.

A minor moment that stood out in my mind...Johnson, pinned on the ground, grabbed Khabib's wrist with a pretty solid grip. Khabib simply moved his arm away out of range, ripping Johnson's grip off like he was tearing a paper towel sheet off the roll...that easy. It's dangerous for someone with that much natural strength to have that much skill.
