why doesn't Khabib ever go up?

[Kvolcom]

I'm not as high on Khabib as most. He never goes up in weight, out weighs everyone he fights. his last two fights were against former 145lbers

khabib could never make 145lbs as a pro. He looks good at 155 but I think he'd look average against most at 170 and above

 

[accolyte1022]

Solely to piss you off.

 

[Crazysibop]

Yes. And he would be a terrible heavyweight. He sucks.

 

[Beherit]

Lol at calling mcgregor an Dustin 145 er... Rumble is a 170er too ?

Khabib is the LW champion, he defends his title in the most stacked division of modern MMA.

Nobody ever ask usman to move up, even though, he is significantly bigger than most WW, unlike khabib who is not significantly bigger than most LW.

 

[Ares Black]

Why would he? LW is stacked. He will never run out of contenders.

 

[Raffen]

Because he's too small for WW.

 

[BigTruck]

Bc he doesn't want to and has plenty of contenders

 

[DivineMind]

Yes. And he would be a terrible heavyweight. He sucks.

I would love to see Khabib at HW.

The grappling is so poor in the division

Not everyone needs to go up. He isn't even that big

 

[Tabarnakos]

I think it's pretty obvious. He's ducking Khamzat

 

[DarthChen731]

Literally nobody ever used to go up in weight besides BJ Penn. I don't understand why people make this a necessity nowadays.

WRONG

Poirier is a big boi. Conor too. They killed themselves making 145. Khabib couldve done it too but why going through a hellish weight cut?

 

[Murder_KickHC]

He just isnt as brave as some of the more savage fighters like Conor McGregor who fights anyone at anytime at anyweight and always shows up.

 

[littleralphy]

Cos he no longer likes tiramisu

Usman also never had to go to the hospital for kidney issues either. Khabib has and really the ufc should force the fighter to move up, any time they're hospitalized trying to make weight.

who cares about khabib making 145 he never once. why do people care so much it not like people are calling usman to move up.

 

[JoeKO]

Not a fan of Khabib either...but why should he move up? He's killing it. Someone could move down

Where does this "going up in weightclass" theme come from?
