because it wasn't... his knee didn't touch the mat

 

[Deleted member 545701]

Well he was rocked but he recovered instantly

Hard to tell if he actually would have fallen or not.

This is definitely a knock down though

 

[EXOICHO]

it wasn't a knockdown

 

[SeattleFightFan]

What would we do without nitpickers?

The world would be so bland.

 

[Chomsky Honk]

what would that be considered in striking sports? I don't know

that looks like a slip to me bro

 

[Neoscorpian]

The same people who claim Khabib "knocked down" Conor, will turn around and say this wasn't a knockdown

Blatant hypocrites

If Conor was "knocked down" then so was Isreal....both never hit the mat period..."body parts touching" is irrelevant and has nothing to do with the rules. That's only a boxing rule....either both Conor and Isreal were dropped...or both were not dropped.

a significant strike

Why does it matter?

nah Khabib knocked down Conor too

 

[Serge421]

His hand touched the ground so that should count as a knockdown

 

[Metal_Daze]

Knockdowns aren't really scored in MMA...

I don't recall off the top of my head kelvin being dropped before... or Israel having any power. lol

 

[Mebetter]

What part of Israel touched the ground in that gif?

Works the same in boxing. If you hold yourself up with the ropes it isn't a knockdown... because you aren't knocked down.

 

[ExitLUPin]

3:50 (but its timestamped)

Israel himself "he dropped me with an overhand left"

 

[Taric]

"body parts touching" is irrelevant and has nothing to do with the rules. That's only a boxing rule.

It's a rule in literally every striking sport. If you watch K-1/Glory it's the same. Hold yourself up with the ropes it isn't a knock down.
If your butt, knee, hand, whatever hit the ground it's a knock down.

 

[pick999]

So dumb DC said he knocked him down when he didn't touch the mat.

Those "same people" aren't Fightmetric, so I don't know who you're raging at.




Seriously, what the fuck do Khabib and Conor have to do with this? Is there some kind of crossover between Khabib fans/Conor haters and Adesanya fans that I'm unaware of?

Why do you guys have to insert McGregor into every fucking thread?
