Dustin Poirier had some good moments. He made me panic 2 times about lossing a lot of money:

The crowd was really loud and it was really hot and humid inside the arena and when Dustin Poirier came out in the second round throwing punches that connected Khabib i really thought he will finish Khabib, but he got tired after that exchange and he got mauled and it was electric when he went for the take downs.

Quote from: ?? on ??

2) When he excuted a very deep guillotine which I have no idea how the hell Khabib survived.

The guillotine was really deep but his guard position was not perfect to apply perfect pressure and Khabib did not panic and he knew Poirier will exhaust his arms without any leverage from his legs and he popped out and it was chaos. If Tony has that neck i am excited to know what he will do with it. Khabib is one tough individual to crack.

It would be a nice fight but Tony has no chance against khabib either. Tony won't have an answer for Khabibs takedowns, look at his fight vs kevin lee, that guy took him down easily several times, sure he eventually won via triangle choke but still.

At least fight against Tony would be bloody and spectacular and will definitely deserve a 50,000$ as a fight of the night reward.
I don't understand, why would Khabib vs Poirier got this reward. The whole fight was a copy/paste of previous boring Khabib's fights.

That was quick, Nate "the needle mover" Diaz on the move after a long lay off and a win against AP. Anyway, this is a must watch event! I hope Conor watches this live and add more "flavor" to it.

The Diaz brothers were needle movers for a long time and Dana White was the only person who was against the truth and hence Nate Diaz was underpaid for a very long time and now he accepted that he is a PPV attraction because of the reception he got from his past few fights and therefore made him the main event in Madison square garden. If Conor is looking for the third fight against Nate then it is well and good for having a big pay day the rest of the fighters are killers and i do not see any way that Conor could win against Tony or Khabib.

Agreed! The fans' interest on the Diaz brothers do not decrease, also during their losing moments, because of how they represent themselves. They are real trashtalking gangsters of mixed martial arts.

@rosezionjohn. Conor should fight to add more flavor hehehe.

Diaz vs Masvidal is official for 244 (at MSG). The event is looking really stacked now with Johnny Walker vs Corey Anderson and Gastelum vs Till for a MW scrap.

UFC 242 Results

Main Card
Khabib Nurmagomedov defeated Dustin Poirier via Submission (Rear naked choke)
Paul Felder defeated Edson Barboza via Split decision
Islam Makhachev defeated Davi Ramos via Unanimous Decision
Curtis Blaydes defeated Shamil Abdurakhimov via second-round TKO (2:22)
Diego Ferreira defeated Mairbek Taisumov via Unanimous Decision

Undercard
Joanne Calderwood defeated Andrea Lee via Split decision
Zubaira Tukhogov versus Lerone Murphy - split draw
Sarah Moras defeated Liana Jojua via third-round TKO
Ottman Azaitar defeated Teemu Packalen via first-round KO
Belal Muhammad defeated Takashi Sato via submission (Rear naked choke)
Muslim Salikhov defeated Nordine Taleb via first-round KO (4:26)
Omari Akhmedov defeated Zak Cummings via Unanimous Decision
Don Madge defeated Fares Ziam via Unanimous Decision

Just what I thought on what may happen to the Khabib Nurmagomedov Vs Dustin Poirier fight, Poirier doesn't stand a chance against how good Khabib in a submission match even though Dustin has experience with wrestling, Because Khabib is on top with his prime in when it comes to Takedowns by a submission.

Well, I never expected Liana Jojua to lose that way but I guess there might be something that happens or she doesn't quite feel well, but it is still a great fight and me never thought that Sarah Moras can make a victory over Liana Jojua, but still she is quite splendid and gorgeous in my opinion.

So really the only main disadvantage of Poirier over Mcgregor is the striking power and skill, however, I don't think Mcgregor was in his best shape at all when he fought Khabib, I'm sure the fight will be a bit closer but Khabib is winning anyhow.

I am hearing all these lame excuses about Conor McGregor not in his best shape when he fought Khabib, no one forced Conor McGregor to fight Khabib as he had more money in his bank account and with is business flourishing there is no point in returning if you are not prepared to take on an undefeated wrestler and he did not back up his big words before the fight and was completely humiliated and now his fans cannot accept the defeat which is cringe worthy Tongue

.
The main difference is Dustin Poirier learns with every fight and adjust according to his opponent but Conor just have the same style since i started watching him fight and not much improvement either.

Well, the fight ended and Poirier lost by round 3, Mcgregor survived until mid round 4, as I said, Poirier is simply not a good enough striker to beat Khabib and his takedown defense isn't too good either. At least Mcgregor stopped a few takedowns, Poirier was thrown around like a rag doll.

I don't know who's next on Khabib, he is way above the competition now. I'm sure he will look for money fights now, Conor? Floyd? Grin

Going up to next division to get next belt. Dont think that will be hard, as Khabin needs to cut a lot of weight before each fight.

Juggy777, Ive told you to bet on Khabins victory vis rear naked choke. Hope you’ve done it.

Or it would be Tony first and then Khabib going up to the next division. We have been waiting for Tony vs Khabib for a while so it's about time to see them fight and Khabib cleaning the division. Conor vs Khabib is just for the paycheck though.

I also like the rematch with Conor but it will be a huge disrespect if they bypass Tony Ferguson for Khabib's next fight. They are supposed to fight a long time ago but for some reason, something just comes up. These two are meant to fight each other and I do hope UFC makes it happen.

^ Nice... But did you bet on it tho? I mean that's the problem. No BTC sports betting site is laying prop lines for us to put action on. 'Khabib wins by submission' was at 3.10 and 'Khabib inside the distance' was at 2.10. Would've been better to bet on those instead of straight up 'Khabib to win' at 1.20.

[snip]

I agree aside from the part of having a string chin. Actually, that would be the only advantage of Porier in their fight. If he able to maintain his distance to Khabib all 5 rounds then he might win because striking is his forte and thus having a chance to knocked him out but on the other hand, once he got take down by Khabib then it is all over. For sure he will suffer from exhaustion like what happen to Conor Cheesy

.

Let me quote my post guys, I've got the right prediction lol. Well, we can see on theri match that Porier was pressured on ground in Round 1. On the 2nd round, he was able to land few solid punches which makes Khabib a little bit wobbly but unfortunately he didn't maintain it until Round 3 — GG for Khabib! Well in all fairness I appreciate how Porier attempted a guillotine however he fail to sustain it (most probably because of exhaustion or just lack of skill) that's why Khabib converted the fight into a rear naked choke. We can now conclude that Khabib is the king of lightweight and he is now currently the goat Cheesy

Conor must fight someone else first or even have 2 fight, before he rematches Khabin. He is inactive for a year and get a belt fight with Khabib - looks unreal and disrespectful to other fighters.

Conor is becoming a joke, he is not even in title contention and never had a fight after a humiliating defeat and he wants to fight for the title when the division is stacked by fighters who really deserve a title shot, there is no way Conor is able to defeat Khabib no matter how much they rematch, it will be easy money for Khabib, the only fight i want to see is Tony Ferguson.

Conor McGregor calls for Khabib Nurmagomedov rematch in Russia

Quote

Conor McGregor wasn’t present in Abu Dhabi for UFC 242 but obviously he was paying attention.

Not long after Khabib Nurmagomedov defended his lightweight title against Dustin Poirier in the main event, McGregor decided to inject himself in the conversation about who will face the undefeated Russian next.

The door was opened by UFC president Dana White after he was asked about McGregor receiving a rematch with Nurmagomedov after their first fight was the biggest pay-per-view in company history.

That will be huge and that is where the money is. But I'm not sure if Russia should be the venue though. To generate huge PPV numbers, the fight should be in the US.
