Khabib just shouldn't fight MMA

[Fatback96]

Khabib is obviously very good at fighting and is arguably one of the best LW's right now, but some of the elements of fighting just don't work for him.
1. He has trouble cutting weight, which could be solved by moving up a division.
2. Ramadan causes him to be unable to fight/ train for certain parts of the year.
3. He loves his tirimisu, which is probably the most deadly problem out of all of these issues....

They need to introduce the 165lb belt and have him fight Ferguson for it, sovles all problems.

The biggest reason is that the dude stays hurt more than Cain Velasquez. If you owned a rehab center and those two guys were your only clients, you'd still be doing just fine.

 

[Joe Buck]

Ive never seen one of his fights.

He also said he didn't want to fight much longer. It seemed like he wanted to win the title and call it quits. Wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't fight again.

He should just go to 170 as it is.

Very true. He gets injured way too often. Like an unhealthy amount.

Just curious as to what the healthy amount of injuries might be?

Just enough to let you use as an excuse after you lose. Not enough to keep you out of the Octagon.

Lol less than once every other fight

Cerrone level, very rare and gets after it as soon as he can.

kabibs a duck, not an eagle

If they introduced a 165 belt, there's no gurantee Khabib would move up to it.

His style wouldn't translate well in that division. Too many big guys.

Arguably? lol


He's 24-0 and is the only LW who isn't an underdog to Conor.

He's obviously one of the best LWs, not arguably.

Tony is better

if we break down his record to quality wins over quality opponents he's merely an average LW. Most of his recrod are wins against nobodies in tournament style leagues.

 

[c0rbin9]

Who are you guys kidding, Conor would smoke Ferguson and Khabib. Their only chance would be for both of them to fight him at once.

 

[James L]

He's obviously one of the best LWs, not arguably.

but at 24-0 and being undoubtedly one of the best if not atleast one of the most effective fighters at LW, he should quit MMA because Sherdog and other circumstance.
