That would have solved all of our fucking problems. There was no reason to schedule Khabib vs Ferguson in April, they announced it months ago.

instead of one of the most anticipated fights ever, we got Israel vs a clown.
 
Khabib doesn’t fight in Vegas because he jumped a fence and caused a riot. It was Vegas’s fault
 
Coronavirus would have shown up a month early. It just isn't meant to be.

They could have moved the fight elsewhere if that’s the case

Meanwhile Conor got paid in full, despite swinging on Khabib's team. And Danis was provoking Khabib - that doesn't justify it by any stretch, but Khabib didn't just decide to hop the fence for no reason

But carry on, sarcasm is the life blood of Sherdog

Conor swung at those guys AFTER Khabib jumped the fence... Like bro if you want to plug Conor in a thread that has nothing to do with Conor at least give some facts.

Lol Seriously. I mean, both dudes were finally healthy this time, and a fucking pandemic breaks out across the globe. The 6th time they schedule it might be the end of planet Earth. Whatever it takes to keep us from seeing Tony and Khabib fight apparently
 
Romero was called out by Israel and He got mostly beaten by Romero.

And this is why unified rules are stupid.

Romero won based on the entire fight, Israel had to use low kicks and eye poking to keep his title and His precious perfect record.

No offense but I found the fight stupid and Romero should've won that.

Are you joking? They were in the cage AFTER Khabib started a brawl. What kind of retarded moral equivalency is required for this comparison...
 
only thing worse than MMA is time machine math IMO

Nothing bothers me more than what ifing everything.

It just made no sense to book the fight so far out, especially this fight that was canceled 4 times before. The sooner you get them in there together the better.

That was the date we had. A global fucking pandemic struck. Dana bought an island for the fights. Khabibs locked in russia and rose has ptsd of the future.

Bro this kind of shit can't be made up or be seen coming. The date was the date. It is what it is.

Yes, a guy that stands in one place and barely does anything all fight and then complains that his opponent wasn’t engaging is a clown.

Israel is equally responsible for that shit show.

It was a pathetic "fight" but lots of fighters have some terrible fights on their records. I wouldn't call them clowns though considering they are both elite and have KTFO other elite fighters.
 
Blame Khabib. Wouldn't fight in December, wouldn't fight in March because it was in Vegas and now decided not to fight because of the Coronavirus.

Oh? I thought he was the clown.
Yes, that turned out to be a terrible fight but it's only in hindsight that you can say it shouldn't have even been made. On paper, it had everything to be a barnburner.

248 was already booked when tony vs khabib was made offical so 249 was where it goes in the ppv dates.
