    Conor vs Khabib early leans?
    In works for UFC 229 - October 6th - T Mobile

    I think Conor gets the KO...

    If he is favoured over -200 I won't bet probably

    Khabib has an excellent ground game but I think McGregor will get to him in the buildup

    McGregor has been on the big stage and has delivered under pressure

    I believe that unless Khabib can hold him down, he's in big trouble

    Let's hear your take.

    - I think the the early moments will be exciting but Khabib will get Connor down once and then again and again and again after his cardio starts to fail him; and that will be the story of the fight. I believe Connor's inactivity will be his downfall in this fight.

      Agree with JC. Khabib shouldn't have a problem getting Conor down.

          If Conor is plus money, I will bet a few dimes

            I would hedge with Khabib by decision but NAH

            Khalabib is a great fighter but a decision machine...that Iaquinta fight sucked big time.

                Sheesh was expecting a pickem here and bet Khabib.

                Guess it's a sprinkle on Conor now.

                Just say location!

                  in no way, shape or form will Conor ever get into Khabib's head.

                  Khabib is going to humble him and smash him.

                  OP, get a clue before you bet on something...pretty much everything you said in this thread is based on a Conor fanboy viewpoint.

                    its either
                    Conor KO
                    or Khabib ITD

                    this aint going 5 rounds, if you think about it rationally , Conor has to KO him in under 2-3 rounds , if not he will be taken down at will and smashed until hes tkod/submitted ..... i could see either guy winning tbh, classic striker vs grappler matchup

                      Agreed. Conor needs an early KO here

                        I admit I'm a Conor fanboy but I still think he beats this guy.

                        So you are betting Khabib. Look forward to it.

                          If Khabib can't get him down he's screwed. He has 0 stand up.

                            I don't know about that, Khabib = decision machine.

                              Conor by TKO in 1st or he gasses and gets finished on the ground. Literally only 2 outcomes

                                khabib will 100% get him down unless Mcgregor KOS him in the first minute
                                the whole fight will be IF mcgregor can do that OR IF Mcgregor can survive the ground game and get back to his feet to KO him

                                Mcgregors ground game is actually very unappreciated imo but Khabib is an animal on the ground with his constant pressure, its a very interesting clash of styles, going to be a treat to watch... hearing October is the date theyre talking about

                                  No grappling vs no striking. Classic match. Like others said if Conor cant finish him when hes fresh he will be in trouble.

                                    So you are betting Khabib. Look forward to it.
                                    not betting Khabib at that price but I think he has his way with Conor.

                                    Talk won't win McGregor this fight.

                                    You really think a man that grew up in the mountains of Dagestan, wrestling bears etc is going to be intimidated?

                                    McGregor breaks buses, Khabib crushes souls.

                                      I disagree...Conor is going to expose Khabib and ring his bell early and often...

                                      Khabib doesn't make it to round 3 IMO...Khabib is totally fked

                                      Khabib will never have been a legitimate champion with this loss

                                        Weren't there odds posted last year in anticipation for this fight. What was it before?

                                            I expect the odds to be in the area of 180/100 with Connor being the favorite. Don't have a clue where the total rounds will be set. If it is above 3 I am going UNDER. I wouldn't bet my dude Connor at this point with him all over the map mentally. He did give me my easiest big score when he took out Aldo in 15 seconds. I won $4200 on that fight. I see this being a quick fight. If the odds maker set the round total low they are hinting the fight will end soon with Connor getting the KO. I can't wait to see this one!GL

                                                I usually just look at Vegas Insider for my odds. I don't see it up on there yet. I like the UNDER if they are giving 3 1/2 rounds for the total. I feel Connor shuts his light off before 2. Would like to have the 3 1/2 because if that doesn't work he gets submitted. He can't be in any better shape then he has been in lately and that has been sub-par.

                                                      Looked up those 5 Dimes lines. Kabib is -240. I am loving getting Connor at that price. I have won a good amount with Connor. I even went Over in the Floyd fight. Not going to get crazy because he has been a basket case as of late. I'll be in for a nickel. Just seen Money line odds. Will take UNDER if I get it at 3 1/2 or better.

                                                          Think the Under will be set at 1.5 like it usually is for Conor fights

                                                            If it is set at 1 1/2, I feel they are telling the gambling world Connor has a good chance at winning this fight.

                                                              Ahhh the Conor effect.

                                                              Floyd opened at -3000 against Conor (accurate) and the public steamed it all the way to around -400 closing.

                                                              Hope we see the same movement with Khabib. Might just play Conor now and then come over the top with a big Khabib bet on fight night.

                                                                Khabib mauls him. Conor will need a very quick ko and I don't think he gets it as khabib has a good chin.

                                                                Turbo has the right bet strategy. Khabib odds probably will be better for khabib backers closer to fight happening.
