If it wasn't for Herb Dean, Conor would be dead right now.

[SpedDaddyV]

Just let that sink in.

Khabib would have made Conor go limp, and the lack of blood flow to the brain would eventually put Conor in a vegetative state (if he doesn't die).

Conor should thank Herb Dean with his life - literally.

Is there anything less demoralizing, than knowing another man had the ability to physical kill you? After being dominated and brutalized for many rounds.

Conor looking into the eyes of his superior after being physically manhandled by another human being. Herb Dean doing anything he can to make sure that Khabib doesn't end Conor's life.

 

[Luthien]

Wouldn't Diaz have killed him in their first match by that logic?

 

[Steven_Universe]

If that’s true Then Conor would have killed half the featherweight roster.

 

[Pequeño Corey]

Same can be said for anyone with a submission choke loss or TKO stoppage

 

[Colby]

If it wasn't for Marc Goddard, Joe Duffy would've killed Conor long before Khabib or Diaz could get their hands on him

Yes.

Big John saved Conor's life before as well.

Conor is living on borrowed time.

 

[Zanmato]

yeah if only khabib bumped into him in a 30ft steel link octagon in the streets he'd be a goner

 

[SpedDaddyV]

If that’s true Then Conor would have killed half the featherweight roster.

Not true. He has never knocked out anyone stiff to the point where they couldn't get up like Darren Till. The closest was Aldo, and Aldo was still conscious. For all we know, they could have recovered. When you are being choked for your life, its only a matter of time before your vitals go.

Like a great fighter once said,

"You know me, the hardest hitting 145 pounder. You TKO people, when I hit them they don't fucking move."

 

[Fergelmince]

Yeah, but mcgregor fights people way bigger than him

underrated comment <45>

 

[Vergilius]

If it wasn't for civilization, they would have been coming at each other with clubs or swords. What's your point?

 

[PalmStrike]

From a pain move?


LOL

If anything, Khabib would've gassed out trying to kill Conor, then Conor gets up and lands dat left hand.

i've been told those kind of cranks/chokes can, on top of the blocking of blood flow, cause the jaw and neck to break...
i believe Khabib needed 15 more sec to break his neck...
Damn you Herb!!!

 

[trihardbang]

Conor was another man's object that night.

Another man's tool, Khabib could of violated Conor that night. Imagine if Khabib left Conor in a vegetative state, Conor would have to suffer being fully able to think and feel pain while getting Khabib bangs him from the back.

 

[ZipZito]

Yeah every fight that's ever ended bya choke would have the same consequence. That's the whole idea of having a ref. Not really much greater then any other sub I've seen. The hype around the fight is the only thing that made it significant to the world

 

[613]

Well Conor was always bragging to Floyd about how the rules are saving his life. Conor probably is not the best guy to talk like that since the ref saved him 4 times

So you would say this about every fighter who was ever finished? Clown ass thread
