a fodder for GSP to become the GOAT, but only on paper.

In my opinion, GSP is incredibly superior fighter to Khabib, and the worst match up imaginable. GSP never took much damage in his career, always take great care of himself. And looked fairly good against Bisping. He's old, probably rusty, but still a better, bigger version of Khabib.

This is going to be GSP 50-44 fight, might even finish Khabib, and he's going to get so much more credit than he deserves like he did against Bisping because it looks good on paper.

I don't think Khabib beats prime Hendricks, Kos, Shields, Fitch, Hughes, maybe even Sherk. Bj would be super interesting fight. I mean it could even be argued Prime Thiago is a better version of Tibau as well.

If GSP can cut weight safely, GSP would make Khabib look fairly average in my opinion and dominate him. That's if Khabib beats Justin I guess. I think Khabib should be able to though, Justin on paper is a tough match up for Khabib, but I think Khabib is a better fighter, and should win unless, you know it's time for him to finally lose, since everyone eventually loses and it's been a long time since he lost.

I think Khabib is going to dominate Justin barring a lucky shot. And Barring a hail mary and terrible weight cut, GSP is going to dominate Khabib cementing his legacy as the GOAT on paper.

Though as you know, Fedor is the GOAT. GSP beating Khabib won't change a thing just like beating a cherry picked Bisping at MW didn't and shouldn't.
 
I hope GSP is in the training center Ivan Drago was in during Rocky 4 with juice and all.
 
I thought Georges looked like shit against Bisping. He still got the finish but he definitely looked way too bloated for MW. I'm not sure if it was age or just the extra weight, but I'd imagine he would be a decent underdog against Khabib.
 
Khabib should fight lightweights and worry about Justin Gatheje.
 
If GSP came back and beat Khabib it's hard to argue against him for GOAT, hell I wouldn't really argue with it right now anyway.
 
If it’s true what they say about khabib tossing around middleweights and bigger in training camp, I can see him doing the same to GSP, actually as good as GSP is, I kind of expect this
I love GSP, and am rooting for both guys but that’s just what I think
 
He is not fodder for GSP. He has said for years that he wants to test himself against who he sees is the best fighter in MMA. He isnt being tricked into this fight,he wants it. Every fight has a winner and a loser. A loss here doesnt not define his legacy,esp from a guy who isnt even really from his div.
 
Dude, Prime GSP I kind of agree with you

But GSP is 40 and has fought once in the past 7 years

This isn't a gimme fight for him

yr opinion doesnt matter, the reality is GSP's last fight, he beat a guy that would've lost his belt to any person in the top 8 of the division. khabib's more active than gsp and still relatively young. there is no reason for anyone to expect gsp to win.
 
i can see khabib going 30-0 at lightweight. but then going on to fight at 170 as he gets older. he wont retire.. he wanna be GOAT..why would his dad "dream"be for him to retire early anyway. just to come up short in GOAT talks?--na

There is plenty of reason to expect GSP to win.
1) His Goatliness
2) Size
3) His nigh unstoppable takedown
4) He is pursuing this fight,so he MUST see something that he thinks he can exploit.
 
Haven't you heard, Khabib ragdolls DC, Cain, Rockhold, and a fully grown adult grizzly bear at the same time in training. GSP wouldn't be an issue for him.

Smoking dicks lol . Even Prime GSP would get ragdolled by the eagle just like the 28 before him.

In fairness that bear was mentally defeated before the recent training camp. Khabib had him chained up as a baby and dominated him. That gets into a bear's mind and can never be recovered from.

Hendricks beat him and forced him to retire, everyone knows it. And I doubt Khabib could lose to someone like Matt Serra. He will quit in the fight against Khabib in later rounds

Pretty sure gsp and his team where saying he was retiring or taking a break 2 or 3 fights before Hendricks tbh ngl iirc imo.

Also while gsp was winning new titles in new weight classes,Hendricks was getting beat in bare knuckle by a gay porn star. Some people back the wrong horse,and are hilariously wrong about things. Not gsp's fault.

GSP has zero chin. He gets slept by the jabs laQuinta got hit with. Khabib will get reckless in the stand up and fight freely while GSP will be too terrified of the TD. He'll be shy. Expect a gassed out, beat up, demoralized GSP by round 4.

Some weird fantasies you got. Seek help.
 
GSP keeps the distance with his jab, stays off the fence and goes for a double leg with 30 seconds left in the round, to take Khabib down. Khabib will end up on his back with GSP. That's what GSP does, beats you at your own game. Everyone will be thinking that he needs to stay on his feet then all of a sudden he will hit a double leg and be on top of Khabib. Even if Khabib gets up, he will get hit with jabs all night and worry about being taken down. I'll say GSP win's 49-46, I think khabib might win a round but overall will be over whelm with GSP's offense.
