Whittaker looked great with those jabs, great fight.

 

[Unknown Quantity]

Rusty performance, toe to toe time.

 

[Cunth]

Whittaker looking good

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

65 to 9 head strikes and Cannonier raising his hands after the fight lmao. That was a one-sided beat down.

 

[MastAndo]

Nice performance from Rob. Almost ate it at the end there though.

 

[Cunth]

Sorry Izzy your butt buddy got dominated

[SidViscous]

Someone in Yas Island is puffing Justin's pillow ready for the inevitable.

Edit: is Khabib crying during this walk-out?

 

[Ornlu]

Both fighters lose the walkout music fight; SMH

 

[Cunth]

What is this gay arse music

 

[MastAndo]

Love this song. Is this Beyonskov?

 

[notseqi]

somebody start a fight or something

 

[notseqi]

Bruce getting paid
what a man what a man

 

[MastAndo]

Dominant round by Khabib, and mostly on the feet to boot. Justin already gassed, that doesn't bode well for him.

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

Shit this fight is intense. Round 1 to Khabib.

 

[Ornlu]

Khabib's round easily; Justin landed some sick kicks and a couple hard shots to the head, though.

 

[Cunth]

Justin looking sloppy

 

[Unknown Quantity]

1-0 khabib. Sloppy round.

 

[Cunth]

God damn that was pathetic

 

[Ornlu]

Congrats Khabib! Beautiful triangle!

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

Holy fuck Khabib is an animal.

 

[Night.Ninja]

That triangle was so beautiful

 

[MastAndo]

Get your eyes checked, ref. Justin was in over his head, looked out of sorts in there.

 

[Cunth]

Nobody is beating Khabib. Everyone shits their pants when they get in there

 

[d[-_-]b]

God damn Khabib, well done.

you saw him gassing too? I thought I was mistaken.

 

[Unknown Quantity]

Damn.

Goat.

 

[TrainedRage]

Ground game SO strong.

 

[MastAndo]

you saw him gassing too? I thought I was mistaken.

For sure, he was huffing and puffing as the round was ending.

 

[notseqi]

He's got an amazing cycle of aggression, rest, aggression, rest, etc. What a cunt to fight against, nice.

For sure, he was huffing and puffing as the round was ending.

I didn't see Khabibs level of exhaustion from that 1st round camera angle, that's why I was asking. Thanks dut.

Somebody nerf him.

 

[Night.Ninja]

Justin did well I thought he could have done so much better but Khabib is a beast

 

[Cunth]

I think the nerves got to Gaethje bad. Looked lost in there.

 

[notseqi]

29-0

Somebody nerf him.

He's gonna get BoP'd for the next fights. Mask or weights.

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

Wow he's done

 

[Jill Valentine]

Well it will be interesting the amount of $$$ required to bring him out of retirement, or he keeps to his word.

 

[SidViscous]

Normally this last fight stuff is about getting a better contract, but with Khabib you can't be sure - guys pretty stoic and without his dad, maybe he's done for good. Dana must have just pooped himself a little.

 

[Unknown Quantity]

Pound 4 pound #1 now.

He did that to Gaethje, wrestling on a different stratosphere. Was worried about his mental state. Damn. Sorry to see him go.

 

[Futaleufu]

Holy shit he is retiring

 

[d[-_-]b]

Somebody nerf him.

Retirement nerf.

 

[MastAndo]

Justin seems like a solid dude. He really is just a fighter for hire. He's in there for money so he's gonna throw his fists around and whatever happens, happens.

 

[SidViscous]

Retirement nerf.

Oh well, at least we'll see him again as a pre-order bonus for UFC 5

 

[mekes]

Welcome back Conor

 

[Unknown Quantity]

Welcome back Conor

More motivation for him to beat Poirier (won't be easy). Chandler & Tony in the mix & Islam will join em next year. Lightweight can go anywhere. I don't see a dominant champion type.

 

[ButchCat]

What an emotional fight, even from the beginning of the fight you can tell Khabib had so much stake even he was nervous. Justin did pretty well as far as keeping Khabib in check at least until he was forced on the ground. He kept talking about his defence wrestling, he probably could've done more. But what an animal Khabib is, he's just too strong.

 

[Jill Valentine]

So now we know what the tape on his toes was for.

 

[bronk]

Destruction!

 

[Biff]

Retiring in his prime. Damn.

I understand the family is hurting but maybe his mother will reconsider over time. A GSP-Khabib payday would be worth like 1% of Dagestan's GDP lol.

 

[Jill Valentine]

Dana weeping over losing his cashcow out of nowhere.

 

[Cunth]

Dude let it all out there at the end. Must have had to deal with so much pressure on top of his father dying
