Barboza vs. Khabib, who takes it?

[Kyler Ruxin]

all Khabib backing out jokes aside(I've made my fair share,) who takes it? and how?

 

[binny]

Khabib dec. if 3 rounds, maybe(maybe finish).
Khabib finish if 5 rounds, definitely.

 

[Which Doctor]

Khabib by suplex KO.

 

[SVG]

Khabib is a machine, if he makes it in the cage he will smash Barboza into oblivion. That being said i can still see Barboza catching him with otherworldly spinning shit.

An epic fight.

 

[Guile]

khalabeeb smesh him in 2 rounds no problem

 

[FrontNakedChoke]

Barboza stops the takedowns and exposes the striking

 

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

Sorry Barboza but...

Khabib by third round sub

 

[1SikSix]

Where's the option for Khabib not making it to the cage? That's far more likely than any of your other scenarios.

 

[20falarVerdades]

Barboza smashed like chicken

 

[Thunderchild]

Khabib by gnp

 

[12ga.]

Khabib will maul him. Won't be close. TKO rd 2.

Barboza can't even throw kicks, his main weapon, at risk of TD. Its really tailor made fight for Khabib and worst matchup for Barboza in top 5. Gaethje is probably Khabibs toughest fight powerful wrestler who wont be taken down if he doesnt want to be with fantastic inside fighting.

 

[ArtemV]

Khabib by 2nd round tko.

we've all said that plenty of times, that's why I specifically mentioned it in the OP. I'm just asking about how the fight goes if it actually happens.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Hoping for a highlight reel Barboza KO.

That said, if it's one of the rare occasions that Khabib actually walks into the cage, I can see him getting ahold of Edson and mauling him on the ground.

 

[Gabe]

Khabib probably ragdolls him. Would love to see a Barboza KO though.

 

[VanMMA]

Khabib mauls Edson similar to what he did to MJ and gets a RNC in the 3rd.

 

[ralphus1]

Barboza by Etim kick

 

[Miq]

Three rounds of this

 

[Roljo]

everbody is getting excited for a very one sided fight

If I was betting it would be Khabib by decision but I want Barboza to win.
