Here actually, I hadn't noticed it, one of Khabib's goons is attacking conor from the front at the same time as the guy comes from behind.

Too bad for McGregor that those "goons" weren't on a bus at the time and unable to fight back.

There are 100's of videos on Twitter. McGregor punches one of Khabibs team as he is climbing over the fence. Then as they are in the middle of the ring McGregor throws first then the guy throws back then the guy in the red shirt comes in.

The guy with the red shirt was already on top of the rope when McGregor exchanged punches u make it sound like the guy ran in to protect his friend.

She fucking battered her! I think you put the cart before the horse there, mate! Rousey got battered then tried to resurrect herself by cashing in on her fame.

Amanda Nunes knocked her out in less than a minute as well.

Lol at the internet warriors calling Makhachev a shithouse, you wouldn’t do it to his face girls.

Khabib and his team acted like serious professional men would in this situation. Respected the contest, kept a cool head and won the fight in the ring without letting all of conor’s pre fight nonsense affect them and then deal with all the bullshit.

Total respect to those guys

Can you post?

From what I saw, Khabib used a neck-breaking move (thought these were illegal??!) and gloated in his opponent's face - like a real classy martial artist. He's then started a fight outside the ring while a shithouse has snuck in and clock McGregor form behind?

All this from the bloke that was supposed to be the superior fighter, but despite being a supposedly amazing wrestler, looked pretty clueless once he had the non-grappler on the ground?

Thought the whole fight was an anti-climax tbh, and it's pretty obvious why they add the WWE-esque drama.

Everyone sees things differently. I saw a gob5hite who shows no one any respect take the beating of his life and tap to a rear naked choke that wasn’t even set in. Then I saw a guy who publicly berates everyone, and his fans who are cheerleading simpletons shocked and terrified that they crossed people who don’t stand for this bullying bs and exacted revenge.

End of the day, McGregor is an ar5ehole, and last night hopefully humbled him. And his team who flew across the Atlantic to throw objects at Khabib when he was on a bus with his manager, where the hell were they cowering? One of this guys is a proper old school savage, another is a character created by the ufc who hoot his comeuppance

You'd hope McGregor would learn that running your mouth and being as offensive as possible isn't a great idea against people from an incredibly serious part of the world who've had to fight tooth and nail to survive. But I doubt it. Talking shit has become as much of UFC and boxing as the actual fight.

They'll get in a lot of trouble and deservedly so, but I can't really blame them. McGregor has been asking for that for a long time tbh.

Don't really see why anyone would be interested in a rematch other than because of the bullshit outside the fight, as McGregor was absolutely dominated and didn't show anything to suggest things would be any different if they fought again.

This was planned, guy in black goes in front to get conors attention. They start to go for each other when conors suckerpunched by the guy in red. at third guys tried to man handle towards the end.

predicted a conor lost by wrestling. he got his rewards for trash talking. as for the morons fighting in las vegas???? it s a class-less shit hole anyways.

Does the UFC have a chain of care to support former fighters?

I forsee lots of mental issues for some of them when they finish.

Totally agree, but I don't think anyone can say McGregor did anything wrong in-ring. 'Superior' Khabib stooped to an illegal move, and his entourage stooped to McGregor's level post-fight.

Trouble with all this is that UFC attempts to pass itself off as legitimate sport, that should command respect from competitors, to competitors - this circus part makes it no better than WWE, which at least acknowledges that it's all acting for entertainment.
