Some UFC fans actually think the Conor McGregor fight was stopped too early

Really?

Jesus, they must all have some chins on them.

Conor McGregor knocked Jose Aldo out cold in Las Vegas on Saturday night. It was the very definition of knocking someone out cold.

One classically frightening left to the Brazilian’s chin ended the most anticipated fight in UFC history in just 13 seconds. And referee John McCarthy was in no doubt as he jumped on top of an unconscious Jose Aldo to end the bout.

But, as the Brazilian seemed to unsteadily come back around to peek his head up, it convinced a number of onlookers – trying to convince themselves if anything – that the fight was called too early and that Aldo should’ve been allowed to continue.

It is actually happening.

The conspiracies are starting.

Great but…

Even after replays.

Two ridiculous punches though!

McGregor is just annoying.

Anything for a rematch.

Make your bloody mind up.

Aldo jeopardised history, career and perfect record to go along with some unclear conspiracy.

Maybe we should’ve seen McGregor hammer down on his unconscious head some more just to make sure.

It’s the only explanation.

Go home, lads. You’re all drunk.
