Michael Bisping picks Kevin Holland over Khabib as Fighter of the Year

Khabib only fought once, that's not enough for fighter of the year. I'd say Fig or Holland.
Who says so? Cementing your place as a dominant champion, destroying the last top contender in LW, and getting that sweet 29-0 isn’t good enough? Yet Kevin Holland being GnP’d by some British guy is somehow more impressive. Disgusting casual...

You're misunderstanding the award

It's the year as a whole

Khabib didn't go 29-0 in 2020, he went 1-0

Imagine 20 years from now people will see that people picked Kevin Holland over Khabib as having a better 2020... I would rather say Gaethje had a better year than Holland and he got choked out
 
So because he had one fight in the year and retired at 31 that warrants fighter of the year?

The name says fighter of the YEAR, not “greatest guy to have his last fight in 2020.”

and khabib is in the discussion among the greats for his dominance (huge factor) and streak but loses huge points on activity (more active = greater odds of loss), top level fights, defences, rematches, and arguably quality of competition. Not the greatest. He had the easiest shot at making himself the clearcut GOAT with even 3-4 more defences with his dominance making up for all else but he drowned in his fake nice guy I don’t like to hurt people I’m not an insecure manlet act. Conor does the same thing these days on Twitter “oh I’m just a calm guy secure in my skin. All about peace and love.” It’s the new alpha for hotheads. Both are similar in many ways. Both exaggerate their claims. (I didn’t want to arm bar Gaethje so I went triangle because I didn’t want to hurt him in front of his parents - which is exactly why he tried arm barring him in the first).

I don’t like Kevin Holland more than Khabib but in 1 year he had more than 1/3rd of the number of fights khabib had across 9. So no it’s not literal insanity it’s well deserved.

I woulda went with figgy had he won.

Finishing Conor, Poirier, and Gaethje are better wins than anyone GSP, Fedor, or Silva beat. So no your argument is invalid.

it's not "who is the best fighter that fought this year?" it's "who had the best year?" 1 fight isn't the best year.

and Holland's loss wasn't even this year. Terrible argument.

Kevin Holland literally was saying to Dana after his win over Stewart “I didn’t win that fight”... if the guy who won doesn’t think he won why should we believe so?
 
Khabib has fought 1 time this year. Holland has fought multiple times with exiting knockouts.

Khabibs retirement is giving him more good will so is the unfortunate passing of his farther, that shouldn’t be factored in when discussing fighter of the year. Sympathy and affection ≠ Points in his favour.
