Khabib vs. Poirier Full Fight Commentary | JRE Fight Companion

Look at this, look at this. Predictions, let's go around the table. Eddie Bravo, what's up? On paper, Khabib takes this. I hope he wins only because it would make a monstrous fight between him and Tony. But you can't count Dustin out, you know, he could throw a flying knee. But you gotta Khabib. If I had a gun to the head, I'd go with Khabib. But I'm not gonna be surprised if Dustin drops him. I'm gonna say Poirier third round KO and then fights Conor McGregor. Whoa. Hold on. Poirier fights McGregor. After this. Wow. Calin, what do you think? But I love Khabib. I think Poirier drops him. In what round, dude? In the fourth round. Tight move. And I think he's gonna fight Conor McGregor. Wow. I stole you, but that's how I feel. Okay, well you just said exactly what I said. I did. How do those reshoots go, Brian? I do. Do those reshoots? I'm glad you asked. What were the lines? No, no, fuck those lines. Here we go. We're about to do this. Yeah, please. I don't wanna talk about making the least. By the way, note how I've cleverly avoided making a prediction. Let's move on. You can't make predictions. You have to. Here we go. Here we go. Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Look at that. Look at that. The interesting thing about Dustin is Dustin Southpaw with a fucking nasty straight left hand. Yep. And great combos. Although he did fight Conor who was also Southpaw. Oh, that's a wild ago. Dustin's got much longer arms. Got better kicks. Dustin also has hip issues. He's had some pretty significant wear and tear in his hip. He's fine. He's a black belt on the ground, but I don't think Khabib gives a flying fuck. Dustin's a black belt? Yes. Oh, caught that leg. Under Tim Crater. I believe his training partners were guys like, you know, Robbie Lawler, et cetera, before Robbie went left ATG. That's a long time ago, Bryce. So, look, notice right away how Khabib is staying on the outside. Khabib is avoiding the kicks. He's staying away from Dustin's striking length because Dustin's striking length is a boxing length. Right. So Dustin's forced to throw kicks, which he doesn't necessarily prefer. So when he's throwing those kicks, Khabib's caught a couple of them already, or caught one of them at least. Right. But he's avoided the kicks. Hmm. But see the distance? See Khabib is staying outside the striking range and looking for that opening for the shot. See, see Dustin's forced to throw kicks, but he's not a kicker. It's not his shit, especially with a bad hip. And so Khabib, look at this. Oh, Khabib. Oh, there's the shot. Here's Dustin's no punk with his takedown defense, man. Right. But he's never fought anybody like Khabib, never fought anybody that's that good. But here he goes. But the other thing is, even if Khabib doesn't take you down, the draining, he drains. He gets tired too though. He does. Like this a lot of energy for Khabib. And then it becomes a striking range. Does he get tired though? Really? Oh yeah. Really? I quint a Conor McGregor fights. He takes rounds off. And then it comes to straightening. Yeah. But you know, that's coming. You know, that's coming. Get up, stand up, stand up, stand up. Stand up. The mauling begins. Fucking stand up. The mauling begins. No, he's standing up. We're good. We're good. No, Dustin's going to get taken down every round. Yeah, he is. It's awesome. Oh, it's the switch. No, no. On his back. No, he's fucked. No, try to switch now. It's a rabbit. Not good. It might be over. Very bad. Very, very, very, very bad. It could be first round stoppage. Very bad for Dustin. Very bad. He might get smashed here. Oh, look at how he pulls his face like that. He actually got fingers on his eyes. He does that like a bear. Where's that $100? That's my $100. You know what's crazy? You know what's crazy is that. Oh, my God. It's over. It's over. He's going to use that full control. He's going to use that footage. Oh, no, it's not over. That was close to being over. That was very close to being over. Someone here's a jujitsu coach. Oh, big shots. Is this where Dustin wants to be sideways? Like not where he wants to be, but sideways in this. No, no, he's in a good spot right now. He's saved right here. He's in the cage. He's actually using the cage to defend the rear naked show because he's got that. He doesn't have the angle. He's sideways. He's using that cage. He's covering his mouth. It's so it's just couldn't have been done anywhere. It's for Dustin. This might be it. This might be it. This is trying. He's trying to survive, man. He's trying to create that more people haven't adopted. Oh, he's got a nasty neck crank here. Oh, Dustin survives. It's Dustin survives. Oh, standing, standing, standing. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Don't count him out. Yeah, that was so close. He just asked for your money back. You fuck. I don't remember that. You're off the train. I don't have any. I don't care. Oh, he had the body. That's not fucking me. Damn. He's going to have to walk. No, no, no, no, no, no. Why did he turn like that? Why did he do that? I don't know why he did that. He just tried to separate the hands. That's why. He's taking down. I don't know why he did that. He's trying to separate the hands. He should never turn your back on for big. I think he's just trying to separate the hands. All right. Okay. He just tried to face the hands. We got a minute left. He's going to survive to the second round for sure. Who's a for a minute to go. Anything can happen. He's good. It's going to take. There you go. Oh, look at that. Beautiful. Beautiful. He's back up. You just keep standing up. You know, he's going to get slammed right now. He has the way he controls his hair. There's no one better man. He's the best. He's a mauler. He's the best. He fucking wrestles with. Oh, he tried that last time when he fucked up. It's not going to work. His hands were close. The switch is not going to work. It's not going to work. Now he's mounted man. Now he's mounted. This is no bueno. Only 20 seconds. What? No bueno. No, he's good. Connor chilled here in the mouth. Remember? Yeah. But listen, this is really done. Do work. This is a different fight. It's entirely possible that could be able to get him here. Look at this. This boom, boom, boom. Oh, this ain't good. This ain't good. So much time. This ain't good. 10 seconds. Five, four, three, two. Jesus Christ. That was delicious. He's going to talk shit down. Yeah. He survives. He's fine. Not a Mark on him. This is going to happen in Pory. I'm on his third, fourth round, man. If he can make it third, fourth round. That was crazy. That was crazy. We got to get some food after this. Yeah. Let's get food after this. We'll go get some. He's a fucking monster. But that's it. You got to walk through the fire to get to that third, fourth round, man. Yes. Yes. I hope he gets tired from whooping your ass. He said that third and fourth round. He was telling Barbosa, come on, man. Different animal. Barbosa. Yeah. Time to give up. But they know. Dustin knows this. Listen, he has fucking how many fights? Forty fights? He knows this. He's been in the game for so long, man. Yeah. He's been down. He's been up. He knows how to lose. He's not going to freak out. He's lost before and bounced back. He's not shitting his pants right now. He's a fucking full veteran. He's a full veteran. He's fine. I mean, he's not a guy that's going to get broken at this stage of his life. Beating kabib in front of his dad. The odds are not good. In front of Russia, sir. In front of Russia. In Abu Dhabi. He's got Asia on his side. It's Abu Dhabi. What I'm saying is that Russia is watching. Here we go. Here we go. He's watching. Here we go. Well, now you know Dustin's going to want to avoid going to the ground at all costs. Lower stance now and then avoiding the distance. He's still with those kicks, man. I think he waits for kabib to come in. I would say avoid those kicks and just wait for... Oh, Jesus. Look at that. Oh, he got clipped. Dude, there's a problem about kabib. Is the striking's not terrible and he's so worried about the takedown. Remember when he dropped Connor? Yeah. He's dropped other guys too. It's like he's... Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! He got clipped! Oh! Oh, shit! Oh, this is what Dustin was. Oh, shit! Oh, shit! Give me my fucking money! No, fuck you. Give me my money! Oh! Oh! You're off the train. Look at that, baby! Dude! What the fuck? Yeah, but he can't get crazy. He's wearing them out. Oh, dude, man. He's wearing them out, man. He can't get crazy because he'll run into a takedown. Oh, Jesus. Oh, shit, dude! He must be in trouble. He just clipped him again! Yeah, kabib might be in trouble here. Oh, shit! That's the dark art. Look at that. Oh, Dustin's tired. Dustin's tired now. No, not me. Yes, he is. He's tired. Yeah, he's just chased him for a minute straight. Dude, he took a deep breath. It is tired. Look at that. Or maybe it's for some shit. Oh, dude, there's a shot. Dude, he's a bad man. Oh, look at this guillotine attempt. That's not gonna work on him, man. Oh, that idea. This is bad. It's also, he's bad with a hundred and fucking twenty degree heat index inside that arena. He got so tired, like, that something happened. Damn, dude. Holy shit. Holy shit. Adam right there. What do you mean something happened? He just, you know, put his energy out there trying to finish him because it hurt him a little bit. Well, he got real wild. He got real wild. Let's get wild. He had to. He has to. Now this is a big if. I think it's only three minutes and twenty seconds. We're only in the second round. Why does he have to get wild? When you clip someone. He almost knocked him out. Right, but he clipped him and hurt him. He could just do that again. He could just stay technical and keep it on the outside, which where I think he has an advantage. I don't think his wildness was the result of this takedown. I think he just got taken down. But the wildness leads to you being exhausted. They're both tired. They're both tired. They're both tired. Yeah, yes. Because those big punches exhausts could be tired. But could be more efficient at doing this. Yes. He clips your fucking legs. He crosses your legs like a girl. And no one's figured out. Cross your legs like that. I don't know. Is that a move? What camp did you go to? Is that like a merit badge? I don't want to talk about it when I was younger. I was dressed up like a girl. It's how I got myself through college. All right. All right. Here we go. It's going to be two minutes and 30 seconds. Yeah. Yeah. Dustin just has to kind of hopefully capitalize on those little moments. By the way, he's kind of resting here. He's kind of resting here. He survives here and then tries it again. They're both tired. He's just sitting in the fort. He just got to survive. Sitting against Kasey. He's going to get another shot. It's really dependent upon what kind of recovery he can have, how he's dealing with the heat and how what kind of Oh God, he gave us back up again. But if he's going to stand up and then use and then look, he's bleeding on his left eye. He's relaxed. He's relaxing. That's a bad cut. This isn't a place to relax. Kabib goes, goes to face him. He's going to get that left under hook and he's fine. All he's got to do is just pull that left under hook out and it's good. Pull that left. Oh, he didn't get it. He just had pressure. Don't go. He'll see. He'll take him back. There you go. Under hooks. That pressure. That pressure. Dude, could be got serious pressure. The head pressures. Yeah. People forget about that. Well, it's head pressure and the way he dips his body down and gets all that weight into his head. His head belongs on the block. By the way, for Kabib, he's got the biggest head up to his feet. Oh, don't grab. What was he going to do? Maybe grab a roll. All he's got to do is keep getting up and just kill time. There's a minute. Just kill. This is killing time for Dustin for another shot to get hope. That's smart. Another shot. Yeah. Another shot. That's your best bet. Smart. Smart. Just don't go for the. Don't frustrating. Well, he doesn't have a neck. No way he's going to guillotine. No. Imagine if he did. The only way he could guillotine him is if Dustin is known for a hellacious guillotine and that's a shit that I'd be. He's got a lacious darce. His darce is fantastic. Good. I'm liking this right now. Oh, damn. Right. That was a shot to separate. He doesn't even have any breath with it, man. He doesn't give you any breath. He can't do. He should have just ran at that point. Like, ran. He just hit him in the knee like that. Our over-insiding. Man, what's wrong? As soon as their separation run. Look at this. Up again. Up again. Look at this. Oh, it tripped him. Beautiful trip. 19. Not enough time. He's good. 17. 16. 15. I'm telling you, Dustin's not taking a lot of damage. He might be tired, but he's not taking as much damage as he could. Yeah. Aren't you an actor or something? He got hit with a big knee there, man. Who did? Oh, shit. Back on their feet. Damn. Two rounds of fury. Look at this. God damn. He's tired for sure. Of course. Is he tired? Of course. He is tired. He is tired. Third and fourth round. He's usually a tough time for him. I'll say this, though. It's kind of impressive what Connor did coming back of that long layoff, because we see what he's doing to Dustin. Dustin to everybody. I'm just saying for what Connor, you know, he did defend a few takedowns. You know what? I landed some shots. Dustin, like, like this is the game plan. Wear him out. 100 percent. 100 percent. The survive survive. Dustin's 100 percent dangerous. He's in the mix right now. He can knock you out. I would love to be listening to Mike Brown's coaching. I'd say to you know what? If he takes you down, just survive. I love Mike Brown. Maybe the beginning of the round. Watch his shot. Watch his shots. Clap him out. Oh, that was legit, man. That was legit. Yeah. And then he. Oh, another left hand. Oh, another left hand. Look at that. He heard him. He heard him. Oh, shit. And then the shot. And the thing is, you go looking for that shot. You got to be conservative, looking for those shots. You got to be real conservative. Calm, calm, calm. If you want to win, if you want to win, you got to get wild. Oh, he's got to just look at every goes. Here we go. Every beginning of every round is the time to knock him out. And once you get shot on, OK, just survive. Is that two chains in the crowd? How the fuck did that happen? Two chains is there. How do you know what two chains looks like? I don't know. What's two chains? What is that? What did you say, Jamie? Sit next to Dana. Is he two chains? What is two chains? He's a rapper. Oh, really? He debated Nancy Grace about marijuana. He hasn't been hot for a second, but. Maybe he's hot. Why a looping thing? He looks, he looks. He's certainly tired. You know, he's certainly tired. He's looking for like, that's the problem, man. This is it. Oh, Dustin. Oh, that's tight. That is tight. That is tight. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. That's snuggy snuggy. That's not you. Snuggy. Snuggy, snuggy, snuggy. Snuglicious. That is tight. Dude, it's. Snuglicious. He doesn't have a leg. He doesn't have a leg. His arm is going to get tired. Oh, he rolled! Oh, he rolled! Oh, he rolled! Oh, it's tight! Oh, he's rolling to his back. Dude, is he going to put him to sleep? Oh my God, this is incredible. No way. It's tight! No, he lost it. He lost it. No, he's still in it. No, he lost it. Now, he gave his back. Now, he pissed Khabib off. Now, he tried to take a little breather after we let go of that guillotine. You tugged on his neck, you tugged on the bear's neck, now he's gonna fuck you up. Look at his dad right there. Nothing moves on his face. He makes you think like an elite Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt gets him in a position like that, as he's trying to take him down. He's an elite Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt. Hey, no, but like a Dobby Ramos type too. No, no. No, no. to beat Kabim who Tony Brine or Tega? Brine or Tega? Or Tony Ferguson but Brine or Tega as far as his neck attacks. But the thing about Tony, oh here's that fulcrum choke. Oh no! This might be it. This might be it. Nope, nope. Tony Kabim's the fight all day. I see, I disagree with Brine or Tega because he's too small. He's a 145 pounder. Oh he's a huge 145 pounder. Yeah but he's a 145 pounder. Ferguson is the man. Oh he's under the neck. Oh it's over. It's over. It's over. It's over. Tap, tap, tap. Wow. Kabib, he's a goddamn monster. Kabib is a monster. It's Tony Kabib now dude. It's Tony Kabib. Look at this. Even Kabib said that though. Kabib is a goddamn monster. What's he doing? Is he hugging his dad? Where's he running into the crowd for? Where'd the camera go? Did he go to hug his dad? Yeah. Yeah. Oh he's hugging Dana. He's hugging Dana. Oh look at that man, that's amazing. He's hugging everybody. Wow. He's humping people too. I think they're jumping up and down with him. That's his dad I think with the white hair. We went out on a limb Brian, it made it fun. It made it fun. I got my money back. Mine's 400. You gotta take your money. Look at this. He's a man of 400 for a reason. Mine. I loaned you 100, you owe it to me.
