He is constantly trying to move and get in position to do damage and like always he did what he was trying. 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.
