Twitter responds to Conhab McGregor's bid by Khabib Nurmagomedov, a fight at UFC 229

No contact of the gloves before the fight. No surprise.

Conor hits hard and Khabib dives. They are on the carpet

– Kevin Iole (@KevinI) October 7, 2018

Conor shows an excellent defense, but difficult exchanges will tire him.

– Elvis Sinosic (@ElvisSinosic) October 7, 2018

Conor did a great job defending the initial takedown.

– Will Brooks (@ILLxWillBrooks) October 7, 2018

I felt the pressure that Khabib has been exerting since the first place. There are no words to describe how helpless you feel at heart. # ufc229

– Tyler Melee Minton (@TheMeleeWay) October 7, 2018

The first round could have gone better.

– Robbie Fox (@RobbieBarstool) October 7, 2018

Khabib wins the first run with control. He will gladly take 4 more of these

– Adam Hill (@AdamHillLVRJ) October 7, 2018

Cruz is wrong. Conor used energy. Crying the weight of someone who is moving forward and looking for energy on hand.

– Will Brooks (@ILLxWillBrooks) October 7, 2018

Looks like it will be a long night for Connor …

– Douglas Lima (@PhenomLima) October 7, 2018

Khabib's ability to hang legs and prevent everyone from getting up is amazing # ufc229

– Sarah Kaufman (@mmasarah) October 7, 2018

Khabib hurts Conor with a punch, because of course

– Danny Austin (@ DannyAustin_9) October 7, 2018

Khabib with the pronator! Drops McGregor.

– Brandon Gibson (@SixGunGibson) October 7, 2018

Oh my god … Khabib almost knocked out Conor McGregor. Oh my God. It will become ugly. # UFC229

– Justin Golightly (@SecretMovesMMA) October 7, 2018

It was extremely dangerous by Khabib, but he succeeds.

And it looks like he's about to bring McGregor to the lumber shed. Already in mount.

– Luke Thomas (@lthomasnews) October 7, 2018

Khabib does not have the hands what!

– Luis Antonio Pena (@violentbobross) October 7, 2018

# UFC229 – Khabib is now full, but McGregor does well to bring him back to the hilt. It was dangerous. McGregor tries to get up but Khabib bends his elbow. Who would have thought Khabib would drop Mac on his feet?

– Jim Edwards (@MMA_Jim) October 7, 2018

20-17 Nurmagomedov. He mistreated McGregor in the second. # UFC229

– Nick Baldwin (@NickBaldwinMMA) October 7, 2018

How many people think that Herb stops it because it was another fighter? Lotthe lot of shots without answers

– Jimmy Smith (@jimmysmithmma) October 7, 2018

Khabib's arms a little gassed, both look tired. In all fairness, # UFC229

– Niall McGrath (@ niallmcgrath4) October 7, 2018

I do not see what Cruz says in this fight # ufc229

– Katlyn Chookagian (@blondefighter) October 7, 2018

This is the middle of the third round, and I have the feeling that McGregor's knockout will come to a standstill. # UFC229

– Simon Samano (@SJSamano) October 7, 2018

At the very least, Khabib Nurmagomedov may have just lost the first round of his career at the UFC.

– Aaron Bronsteter (@aaronbronsteter) October 7, 2018

I love to see McGregor get away with illegally hooking on the Khabib glove to stall

– Curtis Blaydes (@RazorBlaydes265) October 7, 2018

McGregor Khabib 26-20 in the important strikes.

A tight round, 10-9 Conor

Have 29-27 after three

– Aaron Bronsteter (@aaronbronsteter) October 7, 2018

McGregor uses dirty tactics and Khabib is rightly upset. # UF229

– Marissa Rives (@TheMarissaRives) October 7, 2018

Mcgregor has committed more faults than an NBA player. 1.) hang the glove. 2.) pulling the shorts 3.) feet in the cage. 4.) knee to face on the floor and not even a warning what a joke

– Chris Wade (@CWadeMMA) October 7, 2018

Khabib lands a few lefts, but Conor blocks most of them. Khabib has a strangling and Conor tape!

– Kevin Iole (@KevinI) October 7, 2018

There is chaos. Fights. It's horrible.

– Ariel Helwani (@arielhelwani) October 7, 2018

Fucking a fight … that's how you organize the main event!

– Elvis Sinosic (@ElvisSinosic) October 7, 2018

I think Khabib was after Dillon Danis

– Kevin Iole (@KevinI) October 7, 2018

Dog shots ALL ROUND !! Rat Pussies !!

– Rawlings Beak (@RowdyBec) October 7, 2018

No no no no!!!! We can not have this after the biggest fight in the history of MMA

– Jimmy Smith (@jimmysmithmma) October 7, 2018

Daniel Cormier is in the cage and tries to calm Khabib. # UFC229

– Marc Raimondi (@marc_raimondi) October 7, 2018

Has anyone thought that there would be a result that would not have led to this madness ?! HAHA # UFC229

– Joe Ellenberger (@JoeEllenberger) October 7, 2018

Hahahaha 1 day notice McGregor tapping your pussy

– Al Iaquinta? (@ALIAQUINTA) October 7, 2018

Khabib Nurmagomedov made a terrible decision. Among the stupidest things I've ever seen.

– Josh Gross (@yay_yee) October 7, 2018

Luke Rockhold is in the cage and tries to calm Nurmagomedov. McGregor was also hit by one of Russian's teammates. # UFC229

– Simon Head (@simonhead) October 7, 2018

It only took 2 years for veterinarians to prove that they were right. If Conor fights a wrestler, he loses. # ufc229

– Aaron Riley (@aaronrileymma) October 7, 2018

Khabib must be fined and suspended. His corner is lucky, they can not qualify for it.

– TJ De Santis (@TJDeSantis) October 7, 2018

Say what you want from Connor, he always says that he is humble in his victory and humble in defeat. He stood literally there as the khabibs team jumped the fence and the nozzle hit him the way he was exhausted. This shit is crazy

– malki kawa (@malkikawa) October 7, 2018

How crazy it was! ??

– Stephen Thompson (@WonderboyMMA) October 7, 2018

Good news for Tony Ferguson: you're about to fight for a vacant UFC lightweight title, man!

– Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) October 7, 2018

What happened in the end was right for a brilliant performance, but you can not deny that Khabib has proven beyond doubt. Conor was fighting well. Both were monsters, but Khabib was the biggest.
