Khabib vs. Conor hasn't happened yet, they're just starting the second-to-last fight (Tony Ferguson vs. Anthony Pettis).

Can I just say that Derrick Lewis is a fucking legend in my book?
His line about Trump might be the greatest thing I have ever heard.

Shit did they not get the line about Lewis taking his pants off because "his balls was hot"? I was so looking forward to listening to that.
Edit:
Rogan's reply is hilarious too.

OK, looks like Reddit just exploded.
So Khabib made Conor tap, then one of Khabib's team members jumped into the cage and suckerpunched Conor? WTF?

Wait, what? What did Khabib do after the fight?

Disgusting. Two guys jumped into the octagon and attacked an unsuspecting and exhausted McGregor. Khabib jumped over the cage fence in order to ensue a brawl with one of McGregor's training partner (Dillon Danis, I think).

No doubt we're looking @ a 1 year suspension guaranteed for Khabib (which will lead to a strip of the title), along with some of his crew who randomly started double teaming Conor while Khabib was fighting in the crowd.
Disgrace.
On another note, sucks Conor was so focused on the takedowns that he got rocked that one time which changed the entire fight. Definitely looked slow, off on his timing/distance measuring & just rusty in general.

Khabib jumped out of the octagon after Conor tapped and went after one of Conor's crew. A huge scuffle ensued, with eventually it spilling into the octagon and one of Khabib's guys taking shots at a half-dead Conor. Khabib has been humble all week in the face of Conor attacking him personally, but I guess he had enough. He really tarnished what was otherwise a model performance in and out of the ring.

Damn, what a stupid ending to the night for Khabib--from what I tracked on Reddit, sounded like he was absolutely beasting on McGregor.

That was pretty great. Total ass beating by khabib who then went swinging in the crowd. UFC gone full carney now.

It was a clinic, in typical Khabib fashion. The only hope Conor had was standing up, but Khabib was the one who landed a big shot in the fight, dropping Conor in the 2nd - he never really recovered.

Conor used illegal elbows and kicks several times without even getting a warning from the corrupt judges. He deserved to get jumped and punched from behind.

What happened at the end was crazy but I find it hard to feel sorry for Conor (and I'm a fan).
You have to remember that Conor turned up with a gang of friends previously and tried to jump Khabib, then threw a dolly through a coach window breaking a window and nearly blinding an inoccent bystander. He has also jumped into the cage at a different MMA event and slapped a ref... Conor is no saint at all and you can't expect to act like a madman and not get the same treatment back when you fuck with the wrong people.
Conor looked really rusty and poor tonight. I was impressed by some of his takedown defence and I was impressed that he recovered after the mauling in the second but he never really looked good.
Khabibs teammates are fucking cowards and should be charged with assault. What happened was wrong and cowardly yet I still don't feel that sorry for Conor. Bad night for him all around.
Also forgot that Conor cheated the whole fight. Grabbed the cage with his toes, threw illegal knees on the ground and grabbed Khabibs gloves.

Illegal knee and fence grabs as well, Conor was going for absolutely every opportunity, any other fighter would've been deducted points.

I was all about Khabib.......then he jumped the cage and attacked Dillon Danis. Not a fan of Dillon at all, but what a shit move. All of his work and accomplishments will probably be stripped from him. Terrible ending.....even though it was great to see Conor get that ass beat.

Not advocating what Khabib and his guys did, nor saying it's the same thing, but I think it's kind of silly that the reaction is to call for Khabib's head whereas Conor throwing a dolly into the window of a bus of Khabib's guys was used as fight promo material. Most definitely a shit move by Khabib and his team, but the double-standard is pretty jarring.

And here's the same footage with US commentary.

What a fucking shitshow. Khabib should be suspended for a year.

Yeah, I still can't figure out who initiated that first exchange. Also kind of weird that red shirt was midway through climbing into the octagon when those first punches were thrown, almost like he and the other one planned to jump him.

Hey props to Khabib, Connor looked off timing wise but Khabib was never going to be an easy fight after inactivity or not. As far as the adjacent fuckery by Connor and now Khabib as well, it just astounds me that guys living a dream and making big money would put themselves in a position to get taxed on some dumb shit, hope they show some maturity and emotional discipline in the future.

It was all planned, couldn’t happen that fast. Why would Khabib jump out and then 2 team mates attack Conor?
Was absolutely disgusting. Also didn’t find much of the fight any good, Khabib isn’t very entertaining to watch and has no class or charisma.
Sure he won the fight but.... what value has it now?

Anybody who was not part of that fight but decided they were going to attack is a fucking bitch. You don’t do that shit. There is no excuse for attacking Conor. The bus inceident was outside the cage. Totally different than post fight bullshit.
Can’t wait for the rematch!!

Classic SJW.
I’m drunk tho so salt and all that.
And of course the rednecks stick up for the white dude no matter what.
I don’t think it was planned... Russian guy just doesnt buy into the promotion nonsense that Conor is all about. Took it all to heart and made him pay for it.
The sport is trash though and after mcgregor is done this shit will go away especially with pro sports coming to Vegas no one will care about little mma fights.

It’s not often I agree with you, but yeah, keep the fight in the ring, hopping out to hit people is fucking disgraceful.

The same way brave Conor kept it in the ring when he showed up to Khabibs bus with 40 bodyguards?

Honestly have no clue about that.
He won the fight, absolutely wrecked Conor then instead of being the better man he acted like a fucking low class thug. That’s a shitshow.
*edit* yeah after some reading -Conor is a fuckhead for attacking the bus and Khabib is a shithead for smacking Lobov.
Can we go back to the gentleman’s sport of boxing?

Nevada State Athletic Comission is withholding Khabib's check.
How long can they do that?
