Midnight Mania! McGregor "very disappointed" Khabib dropped him at UFC 229

Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Conor McGregor head coach John Kavanagh told Joe Rogan that McGregor felt he had dropped when Khabib Nurmagomedov was able to abandon him for the first time in his career. Via BloodyElbow.com:

"He (Conor) hates technical mistakes. So, that right hand, you know … he was very disappointed to have been caught with such a shot, "Kavanagh said in a recent episode of the Joe Rogan Experience, by Chris Taylor from BJPenn.com. "But it's really funny, I was thinking about it, you know that with the right hand, if you show it to a boxing coach, he would say," It's horrible. You have your head down and you swing. But again, I do not really care about people's views on certain things. I just worry about the effectiveness of the strikes. It was a damn effective technique. You know it's one of Conor's hardest and toughest moves in his MMA career. "

Khabib was able to neutralize the 'The Notorious' offensive throughout the fight, with McGregor generally failing to rain his blows against his opponents. Clearly, although Khabib's shot is far from manual, it's very effective for him. McGregor called for a rematch with the Russian champion.

The revenge between Jon Jones and Alexander Gustafsson has been waiting for years. It will be nice to see Jones against somebody of his size.

The legend of Derrick Lewis is at home and with the people who prepare the memes he inspires.

Fedor Emelianenko and Chael Sonnen clashed for their first week of combat.

It made more sense once I realized that John Wayne Parr was imitating Johny Hendricks

It's a pity that Sean O'Malley could not show his talents at UFC 229; hopefully the results of the USADA show that its failure in the test is only a tarnished complement.

Al Iaquinta Realty is the best parody of fighter account. This revenge with Kevin Lee will tell us a lot about the two fighters. Kevin Lee continues his pursuit of Khabib Nurmagomedov by fighting someone who has just faced Dagestan in their last fight.

Nate Diaz will disappear in the ether?

Is this the best picture Khabib can get with Putin? They could not take one where he was smiling? The legend reads (according to Google Translate)

Thank you very much Vladimir Vladimirovich for his warm welcome and congratulations.

And I am very happy that my victory brought so much joy to our multinational country.

This is our common victory.

Time of strange animation.

Justin Gaethje's policy is to prevent fights on short notice.

Derrick Lewis versus Daniel Cormier has a real warmth thanks to Popeyes chicken.

Who did this?

It may be the peak of combat sports.

Brock Lesnar is hoping better than Derrick Lewis shoots this big right hand because he does not beat Daniel Cormier.

We thank Curtis Blaydes for his hard and ungrateful fight, but he deserves a shot for the title much more than the Black Beast (sorry, Derrick)
