1. FACT: Tony and Khabib have the two longest win streaks in the history of UFC's LW. This includes every champ ever.
2. FACT: If Khabib wins he joins a very exclusive club (10-0 in the UFC). This has technically been reached only by Royce and Anderson.
3. FACT: Conor has set the record for the longest period for any champ to not have a single defense to his belt. Ever/in any division. All while uninjured. Not even counting his belt time at fw.
4. OPINION: If Conor and their opponent from 223 didn't exist, either Khabib or Tony would now be a multiple-time defending champ of the deepest division. They would currently be ranked #1 P4P by the UFC (over MM). Instead, due to deadlock, neither is on the list/they were recently ranked far below Michael Bisping P4P.
5. OPINION: Tony and Khabib are tied for the hardest ever road to an undisputed title shot.
6. FACT: Despite all the above, some Conor fans will likely discredit the winner to justify him not fighting them.
7. OPINION: If the winner of this fight beats Conor, that fighter has essentially cleaned out their division. Never in the history of the sport could you say that about a newly crowned champ, even moreso considering it is arguably the deepest division.
8. OPINION: If this card does less than 500k it shows the casuals have won/UFC is dying/the sky is falling/insert hyperbole here.
What do you think? Do you have similar opinions based on the facts above?
