I could agree with you but then we’d both be wrong

Domination is always boring. I remember people complaining about Barcelona dominating for 4 years. What's special about Khabib is that everyone knows what he'll do yet no one can do anything it not even an elite All-American wrestler like Justin Gaethje. Nobody even caused a bleeding, that's how dominated he was.
I call him "One trick pony". 90% of his wins come from submission and ground grappling. Gaethje is a strong all-round fighter but tonight he was excessively cautious from takedowns to the point of losing his offensive mindset. I would never pay a single dollar to watch Khabib, I don't hate the guy but his fighting style completely turns me off.

I disagree, khabib is a huge draw. Mauling is exciting, look what he did to Johnson and Barboza, that was an epic beatdown. Justin is an ELITE ELITE ELITE wrestler who almost defeated Jordan Borough ( two times gold Olympian) yet khabib made it look easy. Khabib is once in a lifetime fighter. The guy is special and GOAT status

Apparently Khabib broke his foot and two toes three weeks ago and still fought. What a beast

Reliable, good to his parents and community and most important never forget Allah no matter his blessings in life (unless some other "Muslim" athletes). :it0tdo8:

Gaethje gave him the toughest opposition, two judges gave him the first round. But Khabib made it look easy


I disagtee with this scorecard, itvwas close one but Khabib controlled the fight, attempted arm bar, plus one successful take-down.

Gaethje will be the new LW King. He deserves it, very good human being. I like how he wants to take care of his parents

@Abdalla

i wanted to see khabib move up in weight. How you think he’d fare against the welterweights like wonder boy and Woodley?

He's a light weight, he'd have serious size disadvantage. He walks around 180, while WW like Usman walk around 200+ pounds. There's a reason why they have weight classes

Skill wise, no one has better wrestling credentials than Gaethje in WW, but they're just too big for him. Even Justin is bigger than Khabib

How about at a catch weight like they do in Boxing? This guy Khabib always looks almost dead at weigh ins and thought maybe he should go up.

Obviously now, doesn’t matter but I think with the size disadvantage he’d fare well against them.

I can see him beating the welter weight champion Usman. But they're both on record saying they'd never fight each other, they consider each other as brothers.

Khabib has always difficult weight cuts, but guys like Kevin Lee cut way more weight to make it to 155 division.
