Here's when Conor's leg really broke

That analysis is incorrect. He broke it here. Dustin was holding a piece of candy floss which blocked and luckily saved Dustin from catastrophic injury from Bruce McLee.

In Kavs defense he detailed what the thought process was there and going to the back was not part of the plan

Correct.

It was ruled at tko. Not sure what the debate here is. A doctor stoppage is at tko.

Lol at a kick being a “cheap shot” what a fucking pansy you must be.

he is saying the stare down kick was a cheap shot, funny thing is if he would have landed, he would have been in trouble with the UFC right? I thought something was put in place after the shove/whiplash thing happened.


Looking on IG mmanews.tv shows conors leg already broken on the 1st after the stand up at the end of the round which leads me to believe it was probably compromised on the step back check

I disagree.

I have a clip of that final exchange but not posting here to get in shit.

Just looked at that moment and doesn’t look like much. How does a leg break on a thigh so easy? Any apparent deformation looks to just be Conor’s leg digging into the leg and then Conor turning his leg away after.

Right after this Conor throws the teep Kavanagh referred to and he very clearly lands it right on Dustin’s left elbow causing his arm to fly up.

It is after that kick that he plants for the punches and it goes out.

Lmao, interesting aside on that kick: it didn’t even hit Dustin… Conor’s thigh or knee caught Dana in the ribs. It was on one of the embedded episodes where Dana confirms this.

so he cracked it doing a front kick and catching dustins elbow?

It really does look that way given it’s the hardest thing he hit that fight and happened immediately before the final punch sequence that was the final nail in the leg coffin.

Kavanagh seems to agree as well.

Yes, but it actually hit the left arm, which you can see in the air here. Contact wasn’t the right elbow the picture makes it look like.

If I could make a gif from the video I would.

I think you are further proving it hit Dustins elbow

Me? That’s what I said.

Just the left elbow, not right.

Pictures uploaded like shit so had to edit them in order.

You are right you can see it is broken in the final sequence:

And it still took one final plant after that to fully break the other bone.

Nasty. Much more subtle than the usual obvious ones like Silva and Weidman.

As usual, the UG completely misses the point… there’s only one question worth asking regarding this video… who’s the babe interviewing JC?
