Huge day tomorrow when Conor McGregor takes on Khabib Nurmagomedov for the lightweight championship in the UFC. I've got my money on Khabib causing an upset - thoughts?

UFC aside, learning martial arts is a great way to practice discipline and build self-confidence. It is something that my family does together - we are black belts or nearly black belt in Taekwondo. Certainly need to know some basic moves to defend against some crazies out there!

These ebooks were free at the time of posting. Please check carefully before you buy them!

      Scab is a nappy belt in sumo wrestling.

        Throws enelope at chibot, then blames it on Scab
        FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!!

      • Chicken.

        • Lol. Self defense mate, not for novelty.

        • I heard Tae Kwon Do is more offensive than defensive …
          I think that's something Scab said … ;)

    • bot fights a baby?

      more interesting than boxing.

    Re Conor vs Khabib, if Khabib tries to stand with Conor then he's toast. If they end up on the ground then Conor is finished. Having said that, these much hyped fights sometimes disappoint. But Conor fights (minus his boxing match against Mayweather) are usually interesting, so I can't wait to see what tomorrow has in store for us, MMA fans.

    • I'll still watch it but the lead up to the fight has been super lame in comparison to the mayweather match

      • I know. I think that was kinda expected, given the mismatch between the two in terms of language and talking shite. Conor is master in that department. Also, I think UFC was nervous that something might happen before the fight if the two faced each other again on Thursday that might jeopardize the fight, knowing the bad blood between them. I was relieved when I saw Khabib making weight yesterday. Lol

        • Nope. Conor simply didn’t want to do it as it’s exhausting. He wanted to focus purely on training and he’s in the position to do so.

        • Mate, a master of shit talking is Chael Sonnen, Mcgregor has nothing on him. Find his interview with Aerial Helwaini about the Nog brothers in the USA.

    • I think Connor will try and finish it quickly with strikes. The fight will be in Khabib's favour the longer it goes. Connor has shown that he gets tired later in the fight.

      • Exactly! I am not sure if Conor's psychological tactic (his trash talk) got to Khabib, so as you said, the longer the fight goes, the lesser his chance of finishing Khabib will be. Either way, one of them will be in much pain by the end of the day tomorrow. I am glad that isn't me. Haha!

          12 and a half hours away lads …

          I think Khabib will win but neither will surprise me.

          • @Diji1: Ferguson vs Pettis will also be interesting.

            • @Taegukgi: Conor has showed he gets tired because he fought at 25lb heavier than his standard weight against Nate and 30 mins with the best boxer? Anyone would get tired…

              • @RockyK9: His standard weight is 155 not 145. Look at his fight history and his weigh ins for 145 - he looks like a POW. Diaz is also a 155er but a bigger one. The weight excuse is old and inaccurate. Diaz didn’t even get a fight camp. Conor is outstanding but he has cardio issues, everyone knows it.

      • And the Dagestani did it again. Damn!

    • I don't know about Khabib, he looked kinda ordinary in his last fight against a step-in Al Quinta. Also he didn't submit him, he won by decision in a 5 round fight…

      Then don't watch. Also UFC isn't the same as cockfighting. Those roosters don't have a choice. The humans on the other hand are there because they want to be.

      • But apparently the roosters get treated like…. royalty.. not that they understand it…
        Interesting doco on it:

      Cock fighting is a whole lotta fun as well.

      The animals in that pursuit have a much better life than any of the animals that we eat or consume eggs from if your buying in the supermarket.

    • Urgh. Human cockfighting.

      Deals says "eBooks on Martial Arts" and not "Marital Arts"

      • Nobody gets it.

  • I'm a black belt in throwing trolleys.

  • The books by Jeff McCall are quite awful. They have been written like a high school kid trying to reach a word count for an assignment. The books don't really go into any detail on techniques but read as if he has copied it off of Wikipedia. I would've been pissed if I spent a cent on it.

    I'm not normally a betting man (or smoking, or drinking.. I'm actually quite boring), but I opened a Sportsbet account online and used my $25.00 bonus to bet $20.00 on Khabib to win, and $5.00 on Pettis (just because I don't like Ferguson).

    Hopefully Conor (and Ferguson) both get destroyed, and I make a few hundred cents :D

    Was hoping one would be on Rex Kwon Do…

      Grab my arm. The other arm. MY other arm.

  • These books will supplement Rex Kwon Do pretty well!

    I don't know where you guys are seeing Khabib as an underdog, he's a massive betting favourite. Conor's just got the louder supporter base (unless you're in Russia). Let me know where Conor is favourite so I can throw my life savings on Khabib! In my opinion he's the best active fighter in the UFC (not including roided up Jones and half retired GSP).

    Unless Conor rocks Khabib in the first two minutes and finishes him in the first, I can't see him winning (it's possible though, Khabib has bad head movement and isn't great at staying out of range). Conor wilts under pressure and his ground game is average at best, against arguably the most dominant ground specialist the division has seen.

    The way I see it going, Khabib gets his first takedown within the first two minutes. Lays on Conor for the first, by the second round Conor is exhausted, Khabib gets him down and beats him up a bit. Third round, another takedown and Conor taps to strikes after a minute or two.

    • Would love to hear all the McGregor fans if he were to tap to strikes!!

    • Yeah I have no idea why people are calling the favourite winning an upset!

      My fellow countryman has gotten too big for his boots, still want to see him win but won’t be down if Khabib destroys him

  • Self-Defense Guide: Defend Yourself Against A Knife Attack

    for some reason this appearing $3.99, the other books were free though

  • And still!!!!! What happened after the fight was crazy though. loool

  • Never thought you could teach this stuff in a book.

    When I was learning to drive, I was wondering why no one wrote books on how to drive. Then I figured, duh.

  • Now EXPIRED for all except the second one, unless you have KINDLE UNLIMITED, then still free.
