They just showed the kick that Dustin pointed at him where his ankle hits the knee area. Not saying that’s exactly what happened but is it not possible?
Aldo reportedly broke his foot vs Korean Zombie and stopped kicking and changed his strategy to TDs…but was still moving well enough to do that.
This isn’t no Anderson silva type scenario. The man stepped back funny and broke his ankle. McGregor was getting the better on the feet , Dustin was getting the better on the ground.
Weak pussy low character shit to be celebrating an accident like a legit win.
If Conor bangs Dustins wife tonight (cowgirl or reverse cowgirl would be a must due to the ankle injury), it would be a great set up to McGregor Poirer 4: The Quatrogy
Yeah but the Conor haters here are trying to create some crazy scenario to claim it wasn’t a freak injury and Dustin planned this with a check.
Just like Silva haters ate up the bullshit that it was Weidmans plan all along to break Silva’s leg with a check.
There’s no hairline fracture, there’s no checked kick causes problem 4 minutes later. This is a freak injury, if checked kicks caused hairline fractures that caused people legs to disassemble 4 minutes later, then we’d see it more in the sport.
Too bad the UFC is a business and not a tough man competition.
This fight will do 1.5+ million buys, and the fourth fight will do even more, if a fight makes dollars it makes sense, learn that.
Won’t be hard to sell either, Conor can say he’s levels above Dustin on the feet and it was a stupid decision to go for a guillotine and a freak injury, Dustin can say that he whooped Conor’s ass twice this year freak injury or not.
This should be judged a no contest. Wouldn’t put it past the commission or ufc or whichever the corrupt organization with jurisdiction to make that call.
All those whiners about oblique kicks were right …. Only it wasn’t oblique kicks that are the issue … or the recipients of the kicks that end up needing surgery.
I think that was his best chance honestly. No way he wins a sustained long battle with Dustin. The take away here for me is that Connor did come back out in his old stance and moving and kicking but Dustin took it to him earlier this time…and Connor’s lack of fight IQ going for the guillotine.
