    Great stuff from Khabib, Barboza is a tough opponent as well and he dominated him with ease and looked like he could have gone more rounds.

    The pressure from Khabib is unreal, absolutely relentless.

    His ground and pound is disgusting.

    Holm is being outclassed I think so far, walking into punches all the time. Still dangerous herself and still in it though.

    Quite good, Cyborgs timing and movement was just too clever but you always felt Holm was in it till the end to keep it interesting.

    Pretty sure one day they'll find out Cyborg was a wee warrior boy from the jungle with * chopped off,even sounds like a roper.

    Khabib is a * freak.

    Suppose that's what happens when you're brought up wrestling bears.

    SMESH.

    Legend has it she was breast fed Dianabol as a baby instead of milk. I hope Amanda Nunes steps up to fight him and Cyborg beats the * out her.

    Khabib was awesome, completely destroyed Barboza with that ground and pound.

    Surely he'll face Ferguson now, although I'd like to see Ferguson fight McGregor for the title first, then Khabib fights the winner.

    ----

    Main event was a bit more even but I felt Cyborg deserved the win. Fair play to Holm for stepping up though.

    Honestly don't think anyone has any chance against a healthy Khabib.

    Guys just a freak of nature. Tony is the next best but even then I think Khabib beats him comfortably.

    Folk going far too far with the Khabib love in.

    If he’s the best lightweight in the world then fight 3 or 4 times a year with a belt wrapped round his waist.

    I think we need to see PaulM vs Khabib at 220.
