Is Khabib the modern day Diego Sanchez?

Funny how much these Conor fans compare Khabib to Ronda and Diego. Guess you guys can't stop talking about Khabib now since Conor is pregnant with twins.

Diego was undefeated 17-0. He just had a impressive first round running knee KO on Joe Riggs. Had a win over Nick Diaz when Nick Diaz sucked.

People were calling him the uncrowned champion. Then as soon as faced stiff competition he got exposed and looked like trash since.

Khabib has 1 win over RDA when RDA was not the RDA that we know today. He's has an undefeated streak with wins over nobody. Is he the uncrowned champ?

pretty broad area of time we are talking about there :)
 
i think its only fair to make that assumption after the fight saying it now is kind of pointless because he's undefeated and hardy ever been in trouble

I more relate him to a miniature version of Fedor, personally.
 
Except that Khabib has already beaten top competition and is a much better grappler than Diego. People keep bringing up that RDA was not the same fighter as he is today.....yes RDA did improve over the two years after however when people make those comparisons they have to realize that in the same time frame Khabib also gets better. If they were to rematch today.....both guys have taken three years since they last fought and got better.

How was he not the RDA we know of today? Do you think he got better overnight after losing to Khabib? He was on a 5 fight W streak before facing Khabib and won his next 5 fights. Re-evaluate your life.
 
Guy is very untested, rda is his best win.
Hes in for a world of trouble, has a ton riding on his shoulders
 
Or he's the new Lyoto Machida and becomes an undefeated champion. Who the hell knows, and your thread is shit
 
Yeah he totally sucks. That's why your hero is terrified and will never face him and has no confidence whatsoever for his chances against him, and why the UFC has desperately kept him away from the title to prop up their happy-meal marketing toy that is the UFC belt.

Conor fans spend so much time discrediting the guy that Conor is going to great lengths to duck... gee I wonder why...
