You missed the worst part of that, which was McGregor slapping someone from on top of the cage.

One from Khabibs entourage has been arrested
Outcry saying he should be banned is hilarious. Conor got destroyed.
Hasn't fought in two years anyway

Serious question: Did Conor actually use anti-Islamic rhetoric prior to the fight? If so, what did he say?
Not that it would justify Khabib's actions, in my view; I'm just genuinely curious, as I didn't follow the buildup to the match.

Here is what is interesting. It actually looks like Conor swung first, or at the very least provoked a confrontation with the first guy where they both swing at each other. Conor did get sucker punched, but it wasn't out of the blue.

What's hard to take is Conor fans calling oppositions classless. Conor's persona is built on shittalk.
It's just one of many. This thread has started mirroring the end of the fight.Out of everything posted so far, this is what gets you the most?
He was hardly forced, the choke wasn't even in properly. You can see McGregor actually takes time to think about whether to tap or not and he still decided to do it. I would have had much more respect for him if he went out like Bisping or Holm did. Although it is probably too much to ask that of someone. Meh.
Yep, I forgot about this. Anyone going on about Khabib and saying he's never fighting in UFC again, can get to feck. If McGregor can do the above and also the bus incident which actually caused them to lose money, then they're living on cloud cuckoo land..
I assume there won't be a post fight conference...
The stuff he said about his dad was shitty, think most would agree. I don't have much sympathy for anyone who loses their rag over someone calling their superstitions dumb, though that might not have even factored into it as he had other reasons to be pissed off.
So if it's fine I guess Cantona did the right thing as Well ?
Good. I bet it was the cowardly cnut in red shirt who jump into the ring to blindside Conor
He's the best promoter in the business, but I'm sure he realizes that at some point talking shit to an opponent could backfire spectacularly if he winds up getting beat.
Exactly....all the Conor fan boys turn a blind eye to this kind of shit and are calling Khabib a cnut?
I doubt anything will come of it. There is video evidence that Conor instigated that exchange.
Khabib’s over-the-fence game is almost as good as his ground game.
Wow, well in that case, I take it back. feck that mouthy cnut.
Is that not disturbing?

UFC loves the drama... Putting the Conor bus incident in the promo says it all... Controversy sells... And so will this
Khabib's a scumbag for attacking someone that was provoking him, meanwhile the cnut mcgregor shows up at a bus and causes 2/3 fights to get cancelled and walks away with disorderly conduct and is getting sued by Chiesa. Yeah...Khabib's the scumbag here lol.
Btw, McNuggets tapped AGAIN...hahahahahaha.

No there isn't? In the video you posted the guy is already getting held back before he runs at McGregor, which suggests that he had already did or said something to McGregor.
100% spot on
Took the piss out of him for not drinking and called Khabib's manager a "terrorist snitch". There's some back story to that as the guy was genuinely believed to be involved in some sort of radical Islamist group a while back (pretty easy to find on Youtube) so I wouldn't say that's bigotry or whatever. The stuff he said about Khabib's dad/attacking the bus is far worse!
No doubt. Doesn't make it less boring though.
Just watched the after fight drama again. Looks like Kabib try assault someone by not throwing a punch, but trying to wrestling him
. Boring bastard can't even start a brawl!I just don't think he has the fight in him when things start going wrong, looks like he could barely wait before he tapped out. All that talk, all those insults, talking about how he and his fans are taking over and thats how you perform? He needed to be humbled, and Khabib embarrassed him. Khabib just lost it at the end and ruined his moment
They can both be scumbags, ya know.
Maybe you should stick to boxing, mma is so much more.
Uh. The guy JUMPS into the cage. Runs PAST Conor. Conor moves towards him (Im assuming says something) the guy TURNS, circles BACK AROUND to Conor, and they both swing at each other. A second guy JUMPS in with the red shirt, and swings at McGregor.
This is like, incredibly simple to follow.
the irony is this "get the boys on him" is what I'd nearly expect of McGregor which is me being judgmental in my own right, but it's why I don't like McGregor. So I can't like this in Khabib... It's why I didn't like slapping Artem, it's why I didn't like Conor flying his boys over to NY.
I am guessing here our cultural/religious upbringing/backgrounds are giving us very different perspectives on what's an appropriate response to what's been done in the past. Maybe I'm wrong with that but it's an interesting thought. Perhaps we can discuss on a less emotionally charged night.
Also no idea what was said by Dillon but youre making assumptions there (you could be correct!)
who else are you talking about? I'm confused by that

what if I don't like either of them? Can I call them both cnuts?
Post fight press conference about to start
Did he though? He wasn't even under his chin.
Tougher fighters would have tried to get out of the situation.
McGregor just knows he has no way to defend himself on the ground vs good BJJ guys.
