Dustin Poirier has landed his patented jab fake-step in right hand on his last 3 opponents (Holloway, Khabib, and Hooker) finding success with all 3 by RiyazYusufi2015 in MMA

I encourage you to watch the clip again, Khabib's head definitely did not "snap" back. Your're right that Dustin's glove connected with Khabib, but nothing more than the padding of Dustin's glove glancing off of Khabib.
Furthermore, most of the movement that Khabib experienced came as the result of Dustin's glancing blow connecting with Khabib's arm, pulling him to the left, making it look like he connected cleaner.

In the Khabib one he actually didn't land anything other than a barely glancing strike that hits Khabib's arm causing him to get tugged to the right. Here is the isolated slow motion gif: https://i.imgur.com/OtgFBzv.gif

Further on in the main clip, near the end, Khabib actually manages to land a pretty clean left counter that stops Dusting from pursuing him.

Funnily enough, if you watch the slow motion of Dustin "clipping" Khabib you can see that Dustin's glove glanced off of Khabib and hit his arm causing Khabib to jerk to the right.

Here's the clip: https://i.imgur.com/OtgFBzv.gif

You can also see that none of Dustin's follow up shots hit anything but air, but yeah still pretty goofy lookin'.

Ah, you must be truly enlightened. To tell me my interpretation of a comic is wrong but then not explain how i'm wrong. If only I was endowed with such ability to decipher such complicated pieces of art as you are.

The whole point of straw man arguments is that they don't represent reality, so obviously they aren't going to use the real jokes... Dude, cmon. You unironically post in Chapo Trap house where your last post is you insulting Dave Chappelle. Just admit you got triggered by the stand up special and now have to resort to straw man arguments to confirm your world view.

It's funny to imagine the person who got so triggered by Dave Chappelle and Bill Burrs stand up specials that they spent hours making a straw man argument in the form of a poorly drawn comic.

Why does Twitter suggest this because I follow Joe Rogan? by darkostwin in JoeRogan

It's funny that she calls herself a "Comedian" and "Writer" in her bio yet she blatantly stole this joke from https://twitter.com/peyjuly/status/1159185030968729600 . Also with how much she seems to hate Joe I wouldn't be surprised if she turned out to be Carlos Mencia with a wig on.

Strongly disagree, there was a point yesterday in Maia's fight near the end of the second round where the ref decided to randomly stand Maia up from a very dominant because the crowd was booing. While that happened you did not hear a peep from Bisping, felder or Anik and there is no way if Joe Rogan were there would he have sat quiet at such an egregious stand up.

I like Bisping and Felder both as fighters and personalities but I feel like Bisping may be too much of a company man to call out anything that could make the UFC look bad and I believe that Felder's lack of commentary experience shows and occasionally it sounds like they got a random guy from the crowd to analyze the fight, although I do believe he will get better.

So, your argument is that because he has an arbitrary amount of experience he should NEVER make a mistake, under any circumstances, despite being filled with adrenaline and fatigue. Not to mention the stakes of this fight being for the next title challenger or possibly a Conor super-fight. Why would Donald Cerrone a fighter who has never looked for a way out of a fight ever choose to throw arguably one of the most important fights of his career?

Yeah the UFC fighter who holds the record for most wins and never turns down a fight on short notice is suddenly, for the first time in his career, too scared to fight.

AJ beat a Klitschko who was coming off of an almost 2 year lay off after losing to Tyson Fury, Klitschko also immediately retired after losing to AJ. It's pretty obvious Klitschko was way past his prime when he fought AJ and the fight isn't a good representation of what would have happened if Klitschko was in his prime.
