Is he really discussing it? Or did he drop an excuse filled diatribe and jet?

I think he deserves all the credit in the world for breaking his foot and then running an marathon. That's the real impressive thing here.

hey kalib can you please never fight again? Thanks.

If you break your foot, tell the ref and stop the fight. That's honorable. What you did was a disgrace and you showed a lack of respect for the sport and the fans. There's a difference.

I just felt that the lyrics of that song were perfect for this situation!

I can't verify this (duh!) but I bet Dana White has seen this thread by now. Clearly any possible doubts he may have had about this cut have been erased and he must be pissing himself in laughter over Kalib's initial post and the vast majority of these replies.

Props to Kalib for communicating directly with the fans via this thread.

Nothing is ever completely black and white.

I have no doubt whatsoever that Khalib is tougher then I am. Unfortunately, the correct comparison is with other professional fighters, not average fans.

I found Khalib's performance in Montreal to be disgraceful from a competitive point of view. I believe that the UFC was right to cut him afterwards.

Based on Khalib's comments, he wants to fight somewhere else anyway. Best of luck.

I was frustrated and I was more angry at Kalib immediately after the fight.
Now I've chilled.
Joking around with him isn't really supporting him.

I don't support his in ring performance.
I support his Sherdog posting performance.

7k posts since june 2007? I thought I was bad.

so many haters on this thread - it went to sht after like page 2

LMAO @ comparing performacnes when you are not a professional fighter fighting in the biggest event in MMA.

That performance was pathetic bottom line, there is not one top fighter who would perform like that regardless of a broken foot or toe.

MMA is a mental sport, Kalib just doesn't have what it takes bottom line.
