The difference between a real champ and a journey man...

[true_fan]

Conor fouled Khabib 20 times and still got demolished. Jones almost lost his arm and still destroyed Vitor. Dustin one glove grab and he gave in! Oliveira gets rocked and returned and finished Chandler. He gets dropped by Dustin and then finds a way to sub him. That’s the difference, the heart and determination! Do u agree?

 

[andrejxvii]

Ok.

 

[true_fan]

Ok.

What else can u add?

 

[Race Freelie]

I’ll add this. You don’t like DP. We get it. Why not just start a thread with that?

Dustin doesn't have heart and determination apparently according to you.

And apparently you didn't think this one through as a Khabib uberfan.

Dustin is Khabib's best win.

The difference is one wins a championship?

No he beat McGregor in his return after the destruction of Alvarez. Granted it was a 2 year hiatus but McGregor was the lineal champ.

That's still Khabib's best win.

Conor has one win at LW.

One.

Conor is Khabibs highest profile win. As well as his most enjoyable.

However I do believe talent wise Dustin or Justin is Khabibs best win.

Imagine being around this sport at least 15 years and not knowing what a journeyman is...

it's sad really ...

The difference is timing.

Dustin has beaten more world champions than any fighter not named Jon Jones. He is world class fighter. It’s just that things didn’t line up for it.

It happens

One.

One win the UFC at LW*

He has at least 1 LW win in Cage Rage.

I still think Gaethje is tailormade to get slept by McGregor.

Lol, ok? I guess I needed to spell it out for you.

Why do you keep trying to change the point? Those other wins don't make a good argument on why he's a better win than Dustin.

So you want to devalue the UFC's LW belt?

It doesn't matter how McGregor got the lineal, undisputed title. Yeah he got it under really favorable conditions but he beat the lineal champion Eddie Alvarez. He not only beat Eddie he put a HOF worthy performance on.

And if you didn't know Eddie Alvarez is a top 5 GOAT in MMA at 155 pounds. He's literally won a championship in every promotion he has been in back in an era when the UFC didn't have 90%+ of all the talent on their roster.

I'm not even saying that McGregor is a better fighter than Poirier. He's not in my book. But context matter. Timing matters.

Heart in MMA is far more impressive than in boxing, which has a long history of getting hardons for fighters displaying 'heart'. An 8 count to recover is a cop out. in MMA you go down you get a madman going after you every second of the way while you're concussed.
