Poirier knows he fucked up. Whatever the gameplan was, it sure did not involve sloppy hooks, backing himself against the fence and jumping on guillotines. He is still an amazing person though, cant get away from the fighter he naturally is though.
Khabib vs Ferguson up next. That's the fight I want to see the most.
Conor vs Poirier would be interesting but I doubt we'll see it.

I hope your joking.
Of course he doesn't care about how much money he is getting paid by the UFC. He is bankrolled by the russian mob and dictators.
OP
OP
Khabib was the favorite, but everyone thought Dustin had a very good shot at winning. Plenty predicted he would win. Many said this is his toughest matchup possible. Lets not down play this win at all. Look at Poirers streak.
The majority of UFC fighters predicted Conor would beat Khabib as well. Most UFC fighters thought Khabib would lose to Conor.
Khabib is just a badass.
You're joking. Not your. And no I am not joking. Strange thing to hope for. Even stranger that you seem to detect any humor or insincerity when there is obviously none.
Khabib is on another level. Plain and simple. The fighters from Dagestan are ruthless.
Pure Scrap.
Also reminder that the best MMA Heavyweight in the world is fighting tonight on DAZN.
So I had Felder taking rds. 2 and 3, but honestly, 30-27 Barboza wasn't a bad score. When Bruce Buffer read the last judge's score of 30-27, everyone knew he was about to say "Barboza," not least of all Felder, so when he won... wow. I mean, okay, he deserved the win, but how the fuck does he get the first rd.?
I thought Poirier did amazing. He hurt Khabib standing up, he threatened a guillotine on the ground, but arm-in, it's so hard to do against the cage:
(I don't do mma, just watch quite a bit, so it didn't "look right," in terms of being able to finish from there, the above vid gives a good explanation)
Overall, a fairly "just okay" main-card, didn't watch the under-card at all.
Hell yeah, watch it every time it's posted.
TIME FOR BELLATOR!!

Come again?
I don't know anyone who gave Dustin a shot at wining this fight.
Name a more iconic duo than Bellator and messed up main events.
What a main event for Bellator.

Poirer seems like a great guy. Khabib seems like a real piece of shit.
Yeah, makes me wonder how someone like Cormier can square his friendship with scum like Khabib.
Cormier goes on Steven crowder's show. Questionable friendships aren't new for him.
Man, I don't know how I missed that one. Fuck, DC, what are you doing?
Pretty good video!
I just want to add that the guillotine was fairly tight. Khabib fell on the same side as the guillotine. This doesn't happen unless you're a white belt or it's in pretty tight. It's a big no no to keep your body on the same side as the guillotine is being applied. The cage definitely hindered Poirior.
No one is paying to watch or listen to Till or Pork Pie. Lewis is a (microscopic) needle mover and an MGS darling. We still get both fights, win win win win.
Hell, if you look at the current main card line up, given a choice I'd choose the other four fights over the Till fight.
