UFC 246: Conor McGregor vs. Donald Cerrone & Holly Holm vs. Raquel Pennington II RBR.

He got kicked in the head ...its not a dive.

lmao. So a guy willing to get hit can't take a dive.

 

Cowboy got beat down. Plain and simple. Where the hell are you people getting the idea that it's a dive?

He got kicked flush in the face and then took a lot of shots on the ground. There is nothing suspicious about the stoppage.

 

That's your opinion that I don't share.

 

Conor brings more waaaaay money than anyone. After Khabib destroyed him they were desperate to find a way to make people forget it. A 10 second KO fitted the bill. Cowboy didnt even try and defend. Now watch them use this to say how he deserves the shot against Khabib over someone like Justin. Transparent as ****

Yeah. That's total BS how Gaethje is being ****ed over. Plus he's the worst matchup for Khabib. Absolutely transparent politics.

 

Yes UFC put Cerrone in there to give Conor a great chance on his big return. The same as we see in boxing literally every week or two.

However, if you think Cowboy took a dive you're a complete idiot. He had his nose shattered, followed by a clean kick to the jaw and a straight left to the side of the head, before being beaten badly on the ground for longer than most referees would allow.

It was a soft comeback fight for Conor. Nothing more, nothing less. What's the controversy? It was a spectacular finish too. He'll now have to repeatedly fight the best of the best, as is the way in UFC. Unlike boxing, where we repeatedly get mismatches.

 

Did look a bit suspicious to me.

that head kick didnt have much weight behind it, more like a toe slap

 

Lets hope Khabib sticks to his word and tells Dana and Conor to **** off and earn his title shot

 

LOL,

It's not boxing mate!

 

So me standing by my opinion, is now I can't be proven wrong. OK buddy. I've been watching boxing, MMA, and kickboxing for a long time. Gotten to know fighters and their style. This fight was just so off to me. Hell I'm not even a Connor hatter. Whether he wins or lose has zero meaning to me. I've seen to many cherry picks where the guy has zero chance, got paid really well and does next to nothing to win. To me that is a dive.

This the unfortunate side of the sport I like. From bad judging to fights where guys go down without getting punch, though not in this fight.

 

Hoped that would go longer but outstanding performance from Mcgregor who looked dialed in all week and despite how some may try and diminish the quality of opponent it's still a good quality win that get's Mcgregor on track for another title fight before the end of year. I'd like to see him have another fight before getting it but UFC will likely give him title fight next with Khabib,Masvidal or Usman
