UFC 229: Khabib v McGregor

Not that I would know, but to me it didn't look like uppers. With something like cocaine I imagine this.

It apparently needs to be mixed, not straight, so he probably just mixed with "coke"

Rich celebrities don’t use the same coke peasants do. It’s totally different. Pure, high quality coke is a very clean, functional high... it’s not rough on the heart or body really.

So if he did some coke he wouldn’t be geeked out of his mind rambling like a mad man. He’d just completely demolish his opponent in the verbal warfare. Coke is like a PED for press conferences. You’re garunteed to think faster, be more confident, have wittier remarks, etc.

Being said, I don’t think he was high at this presser. Only pressers I’ve seen him high at was low doses at the Alvarez and Aldo pre-fight presser, and high doses for Floyd. He went a bit too far with the coke at the Floyd pressers and you can see the difference. Lower dose he just thinks faster and is “on his game”. Big doses and he just gets too confident and stops thinking about what he’s saying.

While I don’t think occasional use of pure coke will detract from athletic performance, I do think it can play a minor role in mental fortitude when the going gets rough. If McGregor is forced to dig deep in the championship rounds, Khabib will be able to derive energy from his work ethic and mental fortitude, while McGregor will struggle to do so with a clear conscience.

I’m still betting on a mysterious groin pull

I dunno guys ...the one thing I picked upon after watching the PC was when McGregor was asked to make a prediction as to what round he would end the fight for the first time or so if I'm not mistaken ( I believe he also stuttered to in the may weather prediction ) he appeared to be not so confident in his answer .

I just don't know ...it will be an interesting fight . I fear for McGregor in this one . They want to punish him severely but I wouldn't be surprised if khabib goes for a submission to end the fight early .

Dan Hardy and John Gooden's Inside the Octagon on Khabib X Conor is amazing! Highly recommend this one
