In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
The faces of Tony Ferguson's last 9 opponents. The Khabib fight must happen now.
Think it would be fun to watch him torture McTap for 5 rounds, and also the last ever fight with GSP just for the LOLz and then he can retire.
Absolutely.
Holy shit, Porier is the most likeable fighter in the sport.
If Khabib can beat Tony, then surely he has to be among Royce Gracie among the greats...?
Hopefully in December from what Ive read.The faces of Tony Ferguson's last 9 opponents. The Khabib fight must happen now.
Domination. Gotta get tony vs khabib now.
He will be in the GSP category if he beats Tony.
I'd never pay for any PPV. Why would anyone?
I felt like this was fairly underwhelming, all things considered.
Any stream for full match replay?
Appreciated!
Appreciated!
Absolutely. I'd love to see him fight Conor again, and absolutely smash him.
The reason Tony will be a hard fight for Khabib is he likes being on the ground and doing damage from the bottom. Also, he has the best cardio in the sport.
After how its all transpired, Im so happy Khabib did what he did after the Conar fight.
He's now King Khabib whilst the other is the Crumlin Cokehead,
Fighting a respectful man makes a difference.
Tony isn't the walk over some are making out, it will definitely be a good fight
Anyone who thinks Tony is a walkover is obviously ignorant of how good he is. He is 100% on par with Khabib and far more multi-dimensional than him.
Im not saying he's a walkover, I'm saying its King Khabib and he'll bitch slap, maul and choke any muthafuker you put in front of him.
As he said 'its about 7 billion, if there is a better fighter, bring him to me'
And he only knows to move forward, in your face. That's quite tiring for the opponent.
If Khabib wins that, he should retire as GOAT.
As much as it has to happen I feel he'll just be another victim. You need a Tonon level BJJ wizard to catch him as he's shooting but he's basically unbeatable. Tony's best chance is pressure on the feet and avoiding being pushed back to the fence. Anyone on the ground is done.
GSP wants to fight him, so he could go for a megafight and then retire.
He's the best LW of all timeby far but in terms of better fighters P4P then Jones or GSP or even DC are a no no for him.Im not saying he's a walkover, I'm saying its King Khabib and he'll bitch slap, maul and choke any muthafuker you put in front of him.
As he said 'its about 7 billion, if there is a better fighter, bring him to me'
Edit: I obviously meant a similar weight version of them!!
Khabib does that.
Anyone...?
Up until BT recently decided to pick and choose the events that should be on PPV, Users in UK didn't have to. Luckily this on early tonight at BST so I streamed it.
Tony has got crazy moves of off his back but I’m not sure that he’s got ‘best cardio’ — Brendan Shaub said that Poirier had the best cardio to match Khabib and he looked absolutely flabbergasted, after round one. I would love to see Tony swiping with some elbows and possibly getting a darce choke or something as Dustin was very close to chocking him out..30 seconds later, Porier got choked out — that’s combat sambo for you.
Make sure his take down is in the middle of the cage. He uses the cage to pin you. Let him take you down but dont back up, fall and stay away from the cage.
Leg kicks and attempted knees jumps when he shoots.
Oh and luck, pray and hope.
Dare I say, a bit like Floyd?
Yep.
Something of a side note but Kadyrov's continued association with MMA is grim.
Khabib still hasn't bled in any of his fights.
Schaub is a moron. Nobody, including the Diaz Brothers, have cardio remotely as good as Ferguson.
Khabib the GOAT? Yikes. Tell me which of his opponents you’d call an all time MMA great?
People should watch that last minute of that fight to realise just how good Khabib is. He went from getting choked by a Top Team BJJ black belt to getting snuffed out inside a minute. That’s fecking MMA at it’s finest. I guarantee you all the pundits are going to marvel at this — and they should, cause it’s fecking extraordinary, to do that to a professional BJJ black belt.
Darrell Horcher definitely.
Yeah but there is beauty in seeing someone create a system that dominates an entire sport. In football usually a team's systems will fall out of favour or get worked out after some time. So seeing someone so dominate is intriguing.
I’m pretty sure I’ve got better cardio than Diaz brothers. Those guys are heart and fumes. Pure cardio — no way! I like Nate. Think he’s a great fighter but he’s settled at all 170 now and he’d get beat.
A knackered BJJ black belt who has blown his arms up on a failed guillotine but yeah, levels man.
Where is my prize for correct prediction?
