Is Eddie Alvarez even considers a good win?

*considered.

Before facing conor, Alvarez was 3-1 in the ufc. His first loss was to cowboy, then he had two split decison wins over giblert and pettis.. which he arguably lost. go rewatch those fights and make an argument that eddie is elite in any way. he doesnt excel in any form of fighting. his striking is sloppy, his wrestling is amateurish, and his fight iq is below average.. in his fight vs RDA he was getting worked the entire round until a fluke punch happened to clip rda. he proceeds to get worked by mcgregor then go 1-1-1 after that.

mcgregors best wins all have some sort of asterisk on them. 2 week mendes, pre-hair dustin, young holloway, and post prime first fight in 500+ days aldo. when he faced someone his size he got choked out and had to go to a majority decision to eek out a win in the second fight.

khabib 2nd round submission.
 
He's a .500 fighter in the UFC.

Jack of all trades, master of none. Short arms, weak td's, scrappy and resilient but chinny af.

I'd say it was a good win, but for some bizarre reason he literally circled towards Conor's powerhand the entire fight and thought he could bang with him, which was absolutely delusional.

He fought a shit fight, but Conor's striking looked brilliant.

TS is pathetic
 
The only fighter on Khabib's record who's as good or better than champion Alvarez is RDA.
khabib had ferguson, hollaway, pettis, felder, and chiesa duck him in the span of 5 days. hard to have names on your record when no one wants to fight you

Felder wasn't allowed to fight Khabib because his ranking was lower than Raging Al's.

Chiesa pulled out of the card because of stitches from Conor's dolly.

Pettis was demanding a huge sum of money (I guess you can call that a duck).

Holloway's organs failed him in weight cutting and Ferguson injured himself.

Many opponents duck Khabib, but the primary reason he doesn't have a lot of top 5 and top 10 wins (he actually has a good amount [2 top 5 wins and 2 top 10 wins is solid] is because of long inactivity gaps [injuries].
 
thought he could bang with him which was absolutely delusional.

maybe it's not as delusional when he watched Conor have back-and-forth striking battles with Nate Diaz before fighting him [Nate was always a good boxer but was never considered an epic-tier striker before Conor].
 
Khabib fucks might be worse than Conor fucks now. Amazing.
 
Yes.

It's a very good win.

And it will all just add to Khabib's greatness after he destroys McDuck.
 
Damn, its getting pathetic here. I might have to leave until after this fight gets cancelled.
