    Unless Conor can land something big before he gasses.

    Man, this went to the ground quicker than I expected. Conor is helpless on the ground against Khabib and he's burning energy.

    This is exactly the kind of MMA that I don't like watching.

    Awkward tweener arrested-in-transition positioning (nobody ever fully passing into full guard or sidemount or anything), on the ground, lots of scrubbing each other's faces with elbows and forearms, almost nothing clean in terms of punches or even sub attempts. Bleh.

    I agree this has been a letdown compared to some earlier fights

    Unbelievable. I never expected Khabib to land that kind of shot before Conor did.

    Conor is on the ground again and I have a hard time seeing him get up this round.

    He's already looking ragged IMO.
