Khabib padded record, only 8 fights in ufc?!

The good guys he fought he dominated pretty much, RDA and Johnson. He struggled tons against Tibau though, maybe even losing that fight for many people. He's definitely a top guy he just doesn't have that one career defining win, which Tony would have been had he beaten him. A win that would elevate him and maybe legitimize his hype. He's sort of like Conor in that regard, before he beat champs and top guys.
 
You wanna be literal, then Khabib is ranked #1 too. Deal with that buddy. <{silvanormal}>

What kind of mental gymnastics are you trying to play here? How is Kahbib ranked #1? There are sites that don't even have him in the top 5. Sherdog has him at 4 which I think is fair.
 
Khabib's top wins are RDA (# 6-7 at the time) and Michael Johnson (also around #6). Conor's wins of Eddie, Mendes and especially Aldo are much more impressive. One loss to a late replacement who could only make 170 lbs does not make him less impressive than Khabib who should have lost to Tibau.

Saying a steroid abuser (currently in a 2 year ban) deserves a win over anybody, only discredits your opinions.
