Khabib's mindset on Conor fight 😮

No wonder Khabib is 29-0 💪

"I am preparing for war & he gives me this excuse that this is only just business."

When i catch his neck, choke him & he tapped.

I was like he brings thousands of people from Ireland here in different part of world & you tap in front of them & you talk about being a warrior." - Khabib

It wasn’t a choke though, it was a face crank. It wouldn’t make Connor go sleep, it would’ve shattered his jaw like Whittaker’s did

Apparently those cranks will put you to sleep, but with that being said, they hurt like hell and will leave your neck pretty fucked up, I hate conor but I don't judge him for tapping

I agree with you, especially Khabib kinda wanted to kill him lol. I can imagine the 'rage strength' that was added as an extra.
