"I dont think hes trying to gas Khabib out i think hes getting smashed" One of the GOAT lines from Joe Rogan
Joe was the only commentator acknowledging and standing up for Khabib
I'll never forget watching this fight live; the bar was packed, everyone was on their feet, you couldn't even hear the person next to you. The UFC went from an entertainment company to a global sports company with this fight. Absolutely jaw dropping.
Dominick Cruz saying that Conor letting Khabib hit him so he can tire him out undoubtedly was the stupidest thing ever said in a live fight broadcast 😂😂
Man descended from the mountains, defeated everyone in his path, never bled, received his money, refused to elaborate, and returned to the mountains. Legend 🦅
Who's watching this in 2025?
This fight will never get old. Who else in 2024 watching this.
Grabbing the cage, grabbing his gloves, grabbing his shorts... still got smeshed. What a fight
Who's watching in September 2025? 😉
“He’s trying to gas Khabib out” One of the most brilliant calls in the sports history…
"Why isn't he trying to get up?" "Because he's exhausted and he's getting his face punched in." LMAO
Khabib and Conor rivalry was like a movie... You can’t script it better than this
I love that there were 2 fights happening at the same time - Khabib vs Conor and Joe vs the rest of the commentators.
The fact that so many people returning to this fight after so many years tells you how legendary it is
"I'm gonna make him tired and then I'm gonna make him tap" Khabib said this before the fight and did exactly as he said
7:25 Khabib punching and saying : Lets talk now, lets talk now!! Man that was personal as hell.... Legendary!!
Nothing will ever live up to the hype leading up to this fight. You just had to be there.
Who is watching this video in 2026😂😂😂
Anyone oct 2025? 😂
the UFC may not be proud of what happened here publicly, but this event put the sport on the map for many people. truly a night for the ages.
