GSP Prediction: Conor McGregor vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov | UFC 229 

i wish gsp vs khabib

@@matthewtonna1 it's happening

Seriously??? There is no announcement

I love him, he spoke the truth, regardless of what every other fighter told you.

matthew tonna Yo its about to happen somewhere in April Haha This shit crazy Khabib vs GSP not official yet but Khabib said he want that as his last fight Dana said yes GSP always wanted that fight so Its a matter of time

No Question Beat his Rival competition at the time, Matt Hughes with a 42-3 record!☝️

Boomrekt whats a philosopher

If he fights Khabib, history for the next decade or eight will be told.

P4p i say tj 100%

GSP is the biggest pussy that picked his fights wisely. He never had a McGregor attitude, he chose easy fights like Jake shield instead of trying to do a super fight with Anderson. Only now when McGregor did it does he want to come back and he beat Bisping (trash) and instantly vacated the belt lol. Don’t compare his opponents compared to Jones, Jon jones fought against much more prolific fighters then GSP.

Yeah I've actually never heard something so philosophical broken down so well with broken english. It was beautiful really.

He really meant alert. Every fighter knows that, few admit it.

Houman Madani yeah he's a legend for sure.

Amem to that

Yeah man, I don't even care for UFC that much but after hearing this guy talk on a podcast I became a fan. He's like a Van Dam that's not a piece of shit.

Gnorf yeah he's always been a class act, no shit talking, always respectful. The new generation should take notes

I love hime because he is a seeker of meaning in all he does, he's humble and he's very aware of his own nature. You don't see that often, champ or not.

I'm scared as hell of black-eyed kids!

anybody who has been in serious fight in the street. not just professionals. know what GSP is saying about being "afraid". some call it nerves, butterflies, jitters ,etc. all the same. any fighter who says otherwise is a liar. some just hide it better. like Conor. he is so freaking composed its disturbing. especially before Aldo and Diaz rematch.

and I'm taking in reference to the seconds or minutes before the bell rings. not for the months leading up. but once the first punch lands.. whether on you or your opponent. its a beautiful rush of adrenaline nobody except who has been in the moment can describe. all jitters are gone and it's on. bottom line

Very true - it isn't just the fight itself - the very thought of violence, certainly violence in which you yourself are susceptible to - will cause most people jitters and an adrenaline rush. I believe some fighters are immune to this but the majority probably are not.

They arent immunte to it. Fighters either embrace it, supress or it envolopes their minds. GSP has been scared of the fight but once he starts walking out the fear is gone.

IF

GSP is a wrestler, that's his perspective.

kevin hickin What do you mean by that?

i mean that gsp is a wrestler & that he would favour that skill set when considering the probable outcome. i agree that wrestling is the underpinning discipline in mma, as gsp clearly understands, but mma fights end quickly when a significant punch lands & against a pure striker, wrestlers are the most vulnerable. Connor has agreed to this fight, with a relatively small camp & after such a significant lay off, because it is a calculated risk. i hope khabib is practising head movement & raising that right hand that is always so, alarmingly low.

kevin hickin That is true but in this case GSP predicts by looking at their record and dominance. Wrestlers arent the most vulnerable lol. If we look at it, its either if Conor is lucky enough to knock Khabib out, but if Khabib takes down Conor like he has done with everyone else, then Khabib will win. Thats why this match is exciting but the odds are for Khabib because Khabib has more ways to win than just a striker's chance.

Nope he is a good fighter but fedor is the best ever. Gsp is legend too

kevin davidM Fedor lost to the best competition at the time and he beat cans

Immortici Italiano Christian Russia died in 1917 Russia today is different.

Alev Orgiy most people don't even go to church. And they were low-key atheist during communism.

Immortici Italiano shut up you piece of shit. This is a sport not an inquisition you asswipe

Connor will finish Khabib

@james Hala Madrid lol bitch

I'm almost like that... WHEN IT'S TIME TO TALK THE TALK, I WILL DO IT.

@@StephenDoty84 "When it's time to talk the walk, I will talk it." ~ Conor McGregor.

ZeroOne46 amen

Hence the expression courage is facing you fears

Jeffrey McMillan highly doubt that :) just too smart and too old to mess around

Won'tRespond and yet khabitch released a video of him mocking an old homeless man.. Yeaaaa he is humble... He's about as humble as my daily morning shit.. There goes all you khabitch fans argument that he's humble 😂

I don't understand the analogy. What could possibly be more humble than a morning shit? You need to work on that.

Lmao I'm the one that's triggered eh? And CLEARLY if my comment has a like it's because I liked my own comment! Enjoy whatever that monstrous object jammed up your bunghole is :)

Oh by the way I gave your comments a like since they're likely the only ones you'll get. Do you even see yourself, psycho?

By the way I checked and I can't unlike my comment, so I'm positive I didn't even do it by accident. You're just making stuff up because you're trying to cover you're idiocy lmao

Obviously

well hes fighting at 185 now... so, yeah.

CRosario agreed

Ben Askren beats all 3

He does. Conor gets wrecked and finished by GSP and Khabib is ground down to a 5 round win for GSP. GSP is the the fucking man.

And when he puts on a suit, people ask, "Who shot the couch?"

What about not after khabib smashed Conor mc tapper ? GSP the only one can match khabib and it will be 50/50 an a dangerous fight witch I think both sides don’t prefer it .. if GSP first coming back fight with khabib and he lose it will be bad for him and if khabib lose it will be his first lose witch prove that GSP is the best fighter ever ,

I support gsp even if he lose he will not lose easily

@@OkaySachin sure he'll lose. But sure he'll be tough..😃

@@densepada2848 Gsp gonna fold Khabib like laundry 😂😂

@@xixx19 not sure broh.. becoz gsp doesn't have an experienced with khabib

@@xixx19 look at tony now . every fighter in his prime at 25-32 y-o

Same here

...no. George’s predicted weidman to WIN. He said himself he didn’t expect weidman to win the way he did. There’s an interview where he straight up states that and that he though the grappling would lead to Chris winning.

Brendan Dorman MMA Silva is the goat. Anyone can knockout a defenseless fighter. GSP was too chicken shit to fight Silva. I don't blame him. He would have gotten beaten WORSE than when bearded guy killed him.

Graham Hargreaves stopped reading at “Jon Jones is the greatest athlete”

Graham Hargreaves when will Jones test clean his career and legacy is tarnished lol

Shanur Rahman That's silly. He underestimated Diaz and he underestimated going up 2 weight classes when he went against Diaz the FIRST time. Mayweather was a living boxing legends that the other 49 pro boxers couldn't beat, yet he did prove alot of people wrong by landing more punches than Manny.

Jovan Leon despite all the reasons you stated the point ,is cornor doesn’t always prove people wrong.

Ayman Niwshekar I also didn't say 'always', did I? I said it's his most favorite thing to do, meaning he loves taking on great challenges and overcoming them.

Jovan Leon so you mean to say he didn't want to prove others wrong during Nate and mayweather fight? 😂😂😂😂

Jovan Leon Fair enough. Winning is the only thing Khabib knows to do.

👌👌

KHABIB TIME gsp is great fighter but he always make bad predictions

Conor makes his own predictions

You realize 60-40 means if they fight 10 times Conor will win four of those right?

I am not invested either way, but this is a storyline I've heard many times before. It hasn't really worked out well, so far.

@@jeffreymcmillan7703 GSP is on a 13 fight win streak you moron he ain't afraid of Woodley

Dude you’re a legit GSP fan! 😂

Charlie Ennis if u saw the fight breakdown between Eddie and Conor, Eddie didn’t listen to his manager and didn’t follow instructions for takedown. Khabib isn’t incompetent like that fool

He didn't listen to his coaches because he wasn't capable of dealing with Mcgregors precision and distance management.

Khabib is gonna smash Conor

Charlie Ennis Eddie's team told him to throw leg kicks like how he did in the beginning until mcgregor got to him mentally. Do your research, idiot.

Andy S I khabib will get smashed by Coner!!

Won'tRespond well said. Conor better pray it sleeps him. But I was shoked how well he took barboza kick. Dc said it himself a punch won't sleep khabib

Nobody has been able too eat two good Clips from Conor except Diaz and nobody can knock the diaz brothers out. Name a fighter outside Nate Conor hit clean and survived

ppl who make a "chin" argument make no argument at all. an interest in the occasional big ppv fight, gives you no insight into the fight game.

Tyler Hurd max holloway. Dennis silver floyd mayweather.

Tyler Hurd your boy better prey he lands on khabib the first round and kos him cause otherwise that means conor is getting nailed

Conor had been improving his Twitter skills for those 2 years!! 🤣🤣🤣

Gsp not confident himself if he can beat Khabib

Farid Gadimov prime gsp would without a doubt beat Khabib, and I’m a khabib fan

@@bestshortclips18 gsp at his prime maybe yes beat khabib, maybe not.. but gsp fan right now believe if he fight khabib now, khabib gonna lose :)

@@bestshortclips18 #khabib never bleed

@@faridgadimov5955 if khabib wanna calling as a goat he need 30-0 or 35,36-0 record.

I always wondered how he can make 155, but now I think he can.

I noticed that he lose wait but we can't be sure what his weight right now.

William ur momma I noticed as well. He's doing intermittent fasting, which lowers weight especially over long periods. The universe is moving the pieces for this ginormous CONOR VS GSP LEGENDS FIGHT. CAN YOU FEEL THE BUILD UP ALREADY?? EVERY Conor fight will supersede his previous fight -in shere magnitude. He will have records that will last many many years.

Ray Mukhtar great analysis bro and I think whoever wins between Connor and Khabib well loss to GSP cause this time GSP is prepared unlike when he fougth Bisping, just my opinion.

Colitis was just excuse to vacate MW title and lose weight without looking like an asshole for messing up the division and without seeming like he is begging Conor for a fight. Plain and simple. How the fuck did he get colitis from 'forced eating to fight at Middleweight' bullshit.

But it seems to me that GSP's striking is more of a way to set up takedowns non ? But you're absolutely spot on ! I want Conor to win vs Khabib, but I would prefer to see Khabib vs Georges rather Conor vs Georges, Georges is too big for Conor..

Yes ! I miss his fancy kicks, grapple a little, throw in a few elbows or something, kind of like a mini CroCop vs Gonzaga 2 ! But it seems to be a trend at the moment, a lot of fighters seem to be head hunting, not bothering with leg kicks or body kicks/shots.. I blame the judges for that, somehow a leg kick that isn't too clean but still stings, somewhat takes away your opponent's ability to move, scores less than a takedown that only results in 45s of sitting on your opponent whilst landing a few half arsed punches to the head... I have Khabib winning too, he's just too ruthless, hopefully by decision though.. Like a close decision, Conor needs some confidence building at the moment..

Very evenly matched. That's the real championship fight in my mind. I'm really have no clue who would win that one.

Agree 100% with the legendary GSP. Khabib has the tools to win the fight, but those fast, explosive and precise shots from Connor could catch Khabib on the way in. Specially since Khabib is often careless when shortening the distance. My money goes to Khabib winning, and then it’s GSP vs Khabib. Meanwhile they match Connor vs Ferguson and both the winners face each other. It’d be an extremely technical fight in GSP vs Khabib (GSP with better stand up skills and double legs, while Khabib with more variety in takedowns, better clinch work and top positioning). While Connor vs Ferguson would be a stand up show, testing Connor’s chin for the first time (since Ferguson has proven to have an Iron chin) having him with better kicks and counters, while Ferguson having more awkward angles and slick submissions. Gotta love these possibilities right? BTW, gotta love GSP even more. Probably the only guy from his era who has always evolved along with the sport, and who’s fighting IQ is unmatchable. RESPECT. Number 3 P4P of all times (gotta put him behind Silva and Jones).

tauseef barakat He doesn't have Fedor's striking.

Jam finally someone talking sense. We saw what happens in mayweather fight when walk Conor down hands up and he’s backing up. He only looks great when u exchange with him

Spence Mumin wow fedor is a well rounded fighter . Most complete fighter to ever step foot in the ring . There is no comparison to Fedor . Khabib will loose this game . Mcgregor will take back his belt

@@alingheorghe9461 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

A bunch of casuals commentating here lol

ALEX MASON I don't agree. Look how much money he spent on his training camp for the 2nd Diaz fight.

ALEX MASON Too bad he gives up.

Hahahah, he was literally afraid to DIE which is why he tapped in the first fight with Nate Diaz. He also froze and didn't do shit when Khabib got in his face backstage. Smh. Stop lying.

he was afraid of getting knocked out, which is why he gave diaz his back

Afraid to be knocked out (strikes or choke) because the likelihood of such things happening again is substantially increased.

Hamid Carreleur Underrate Conor thats allways so .... and at the end Conor raise his hands

G-Unit Et en français ça donne quoi ??

Hamid Carreleur no france only English

No doubt! Right? I'm surprised Conor even accepted this fight. They must be paying him a lot. But if you think about it, it's really not that bad of a deal for Connor. He gets paid another life-changing payday, and there is no shame in losing to Khabib. Khabib destroys everybody, so why be ashamed if you lose? Khabib is a fucking beast and everyone knows it. Conor walks away with another how many million for getting beat by someone who beats everybody, with a small chance of actually connecting a good left and winning(not likely, but possible.) Plus, Conor has already lost several times, and his fans still love him. So, it is a good deal for Conor all around. But, he is going to get rag-dolled, nonetheless.

DC We will see , we will see ..... i am waiting for u excuses when conor put jim to sleep. What u talking Conor is much faster and is the better fighter in multiple things in the fight game (presion, fight IQ,movment..... And 3 loses one of them in the UFC with a revange win ..... he beat everybody he fought in the UFC how u can say he have several losses..... Its allways the same .... Aldo was 10 Years undefeded ..... Chad mendez All Amercian Werstler and and and ..... the end we all know.... Cant wait to see Ko Khabib in the first Round ..... mark my words .....

Jeffrey McMillan That's the conor blood part

Chris Compo Damn Chris, you had me laughing my ass off on that one😂

@@jeffreymcmillan7703 gsp has beat all tyrons of his time

YAS.

I don’t remember him running. He got his butt kicked but he did hand khabib his first loss in a rd ever.

@RU-vid Connolly family Conor didn't run But he did cheat multiple times Ref didn't deduct points!! ☺

And cause aldo is a midget compared to mcnuggets

tyson thao A

Aldo was a fool who got fooled by a fool who played the fool to fool the fool, Aldo rushed in thinking he is a bad man and left his self exposed more than I can believe I mean Aldo basically said come knock me out because am a fool who got played and I deserve it that's why he ran in with his face uncovered

hangman9394 Einstein we have here

Drumaier J incase you forgot Einstein

thats what they all said about the Alvarez fight, even myself, and look how that turned out.

SOCAL3800 well we have to see, Alvarez ain’t nothing like khabib

eh, they are somewhat the same, both fall under the "wrestlers/grapplers with decent striking and a great ground and pound category game." But Alvarez won via knockout against RDA whereas Khabib won via takedown.

Khabib did too. He said exact same thing.

@@sigal5542 Fairly, easy to predict.

Luis Coley by then gsp will be 50 years old

BULLSHIT.

GO back and watch Khabibs fights. Micheal Johnson tagged him repeadedly......STEEL CHIN.

And Conor's stand up game is nowhere near Khabib's ground game.

And yet got rocked by his striking

Better get used to it. Your boy McCocksmoker will get leg humped and choked out. I predict a trip to the hospital.

JEAN STARWIND We’ll see son

Jeffrey McMillan Dana doesn't like Woodley and will never let him fight GSP. Woodley made his bed with that shit Maia decision.
