Okay....We've seen khabib and Lee vs Barboza and Lee recently....

[Arm Barbarian]

Lee fucked up my parlay and has way more viscous strikes. I’m 50/50 on him vs Khabib. I think Khabib is great but getting more credit than earned based off opponents.

Pretty much how I see it bro, 50 / 50, although I do understand folks seeing it differently due to Khabib never losing a round.

I'm actually REALLY hoping to see these two square off, tbh.

It's a fascinating match-up between two of the best wrestlers at LW.

Lee was on his knees when he got TKO'ed and nobody has kept him on his back for an extended period of time. Your assumptions are baseless.

He was on his back and failed to base up.

Kevin has no tools off of his back and his TDD is nothing special.

He struggled against all the collegiate wrestlers that he fought.

 

[Sage NorthGOAT]

Going with Lee. That jabfest killed my confidence in Khabib's striking, and they'll be sweaty and slippery after a few rounds which might help Lee keeping it standing.

I agree. Kinda sucks Tony is out but on the plus side we might get this matchup

Cucuy is my favorite fighter, so I'm hoping he comes back with a vengeance before the year is done.

He is definitely my new fav since my others are old and falling off. He will come back and finish em all

Pretty sure Tony is Khabib toughest fight. Remember when Tony defeated Lee?

The Lee that had Staph? There is any combo of fights between Tony/Lee/Khabib and Conor that are interesting.

This is the reason i have no doubt Khabib wins this fight. When Khabib gets Lee to the ground I doubt he'll have much resistance against Khabib, when Lee gets Khabib on the ground, Khabib is active as hell off his back, he has some of the slickest triangles I've seen.

Easily the wildest, most entertaining style out there today. haha

Those are 5 sec gifs dude he got up every time

Against a BJJ guy and Al who was looking to strike.

Pararez, who has no wrestling background, got him down 3 times.

Chiesa got him down but lost the scramble.

Escudero rocked him several times and got him down. And he's only NJCAA.

Lee's success comes from guys who he can easily transition on and guys who are inactive on their back. Khabib is neither of those.

 

[Weuylf]

Will keep saying Lee wins this fight.

 

[Kertol]

There’s levels to this. Khabib could do to Lee what he did to RDA.

Not sure that comparison applies here.

RDA has good BJJ, but no real wrestling experience.

 

[DRMZ]

Khabib and Lee are both bang average welterweights, fighting at LW.

 

[HomeRun916]

Khabib (T)KO.

For sure, I started back when I was 17 loving Frank Shamrock and Vitor Belfort.
Later me and my brother showing my Dad Frank and he says well this kid iskicking his ass!
I said yeah that’s Nick Diaz, that fucker got good.
Then I became a loyal Diaz fan.
Same way I finally gave Anderson his respect after front kicking Vitor.
Nobody excites me like those guys (aside from Shogun fighting Machida)
Except for Tony . Conor and Nate also get me going but I love how hard to predict Tony is.

 

[ostlerrage]

lee stops khabibs takedowns and wins a striking contest. easy.

 

[catnap]

I see Lee winning that fight actually. Khabib beats everyone else but Lee is just too good a wrestler and too strong physically to get taken down by Khabib and dominated like the rest of the division. I see Lee defending the takedown and outstriking Khabib on the feet. Never thought that I would say this

^^yeah that^^
