I was hoping he'd hit 30-0 and retire but I suppose it's just a number at this point.

I'm guessing the winner of Poirier/Ferguson vs. Gaethje for the title?

GLOW 10-24-2020 04:44 PM

i think that was his plan to go 30 but mom said he shouldn't fight without dad

mikemhg 10-26-2020 11:44 AM

He's got no one left to fight at this point. I could see him come back for a super fight if they threw big dollars though, maybe a Conor Pt 2, or a GSP fight?

Sucks we'll never get to see Tony F against Khabib though, never meant to be, I suppose.

whitev70r 10-26-2020 12:27 PM

Will never be a Khabib McGregor II ... never. It's not about the $$ for Khabib.

MarkyMark 10-26-2020 03:56 PM

At this point I can only see Khabib coming back to fight GSP, and if that were to happen it would have to be the quickest retirement ever due to GSP's age.

Unlike most other fighters though, when Khabib says he's done I believe him.

SkinnyPupp 10-26-2020 04:13 PM

Khabib is a different kind of person. I think when he says he's retired, he 100% means it

whitev70r 10-26-2020 07:50 PM


But if you watch the video, Justin did tap ... ref didn't see it doe.

mikemhg 10-27-2020 10:14 AM

^Wow, that's amazing man. I'm not a fan of Khabib, but that's a class act move by him.

fliptuner 10-28-2020 08:09 AM

To be that aware, in the moment, is a testament to how well trained he is, that his movements are second nature and he can think ahead. Just amazing.

You see so many fighters in the ground and they're just lost. This guy's playing chess, while everyone is playing checkers.

Suck it druggie DUI JJ

SkinnyPupp 10-28-2020 03:42 PM

Nah still Jon Jones

MarkyMark 10-28-2020 04:23 PM

I'd say Jones by quite a bit. Khabib is awesome but the guy defended his title what, a couple times?

mikemhg 10-29-2020 06:06 PM

Was about to post this, Marky.

JJ by a long shot, you can't compare resumes, JJ beat MUCH better talent, and his longevity is undeniable.

You might not like him, but can't doubt his greatness. I don't think Khabib comes close P4P.

SkinnyPupp 10-31-2020 02:57 AM

So Khabib is basically turning into a jihadist on instagram since retiring

At least with Conor's stuff, even when going over the line, it was just for show

GLOW 10-31-2020 10:44 AM

did i miss something? :confused:
i tried to google and look at a few IG pics and didn't see anything other than thanking fans/coach, new business partners etc

SkinnyPupp 10-31-2020 02:51 PM

Just look at his instagram (translated by google)



"Believe me, these provocations will come out sideways for them, the end is always for the God-fearing."



"may Allah unleash his punishment on everyone who encroaches on the honor of the best of people - his prophet Muhammad"

He's basically defending the terrorist attacks in France, because they have free speech and can draw cartoons of his cartoon prophet.

whitev70r 11-01-2020 05:06 AM

It's way past your expiry date. Hang them up, you're already a legend. You can't possibly need the money. That was painful to see!



SkinnyPupp 11-01-2020 05:35 AM

GLOW 11-01-2020 07:06 AM

silva got silva'd

mikemhg 11-04-2020 10:24 AM

He still wouldn't commit to retiring :lol Jeez.

MarkyMark 11-04-2020 10:34 AM

I have a bad feeling Silva will end his career in some bush league organization getting KO'd by nobodies.

BlackV62K2 11-04-2020 10:55 AM

Its unfortunate that some of these guys could've retired as legend status but continue to fight way past their prime, even when they have collected many loses in a row and end up having to retire as a being an old washed up fighter/punching bag instead.

whitev70r 11-04-2020 02:02 PM

^ this. Learn from Khabib. Why risk more brain injury ??!!

Either that or get KO'd in almost life ending fashion and retired, ala Bernard Hopkins :heckno:


SkinnyPupp 11-28-2020 06:29 PM

Anyone watching the Tyson/Jones Jr fight? I expect a <2 minute KO by Tyson PogChamp
