I wouldn't mind seeing a rematch, but if there is a rematch it's going to end the same way this one did. Khabib is just so much better. I text a buddy who was watching and he tried saying something was wrong with Conor and he wasn't the same as usual. I said yeah it looked like that because he was completely out matched.
Going into the fight, my brothers and I (who have all been watching MMA for a while) believed that Conor's only chance was an early KO, and if he didn't get that then Khabib was going to hurt him. We prepared the casuals at our party, letting them know what we expected (either quick Conor win or a long Khabib beating), so they werent surprised.
Seeing Khabib actually clip Conor in the 2nd round was a big surprise for us though, no matter how much you think you know, theres still usually some kind of surprise in MMA. Khabib's hands have gotten better, but for him his hands are always just going to be a way to get his takedowns. [Reply]

After the first round I think Conor was pretty well gassed and a knockout wasn't going to happen. Khabib did some good dage with his strikes. It has to suck fighting someone like him. You're so worried about getting taken to the ground where you have no chance that it leaves you vulnerable to get knocked out. Khabib is going to be hard to beat. [Reply]

He'd be looked at as a bitch in the MMA world if he pressed charges Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]

AFAIK Roku uses it's own in house OS and it doesn't allow for stuff like Kodi to be installed. There are work arounds like installing them on a computer and mirroring the imagine on a TV but you are probably better off switching to nvidia shield or something else that allows for the apps to be installed.
My friend went with the shield and he pays a monthly fee of like $20 for a package for all his TV which includes PPV streams. [Reply]
Just think it's funny how the UFC built the biggest fight it's ever had around 2 of if not the 2 shadiest characters in the entire company...par for the course for Dana White. [Reply]

Thanks. I don't know if I want to do all that. I don't mind supporting the sport. I will look into it though. [Reply]
