A fighter who retire at 32 can be considered goat?

[ehxsur]

That's the only problem i have with Khabib and the goat talk about him, i mean, nobody deny what he have done in a short period of time (cleaning his whole division and looking unstopable) but it's easier to be undefeated and look unstopable when you leave early

It's not like he is leaving at his early downfall feeling he is not at the top anymore and risk to loose with unecesarry more fights

He is at his prime but refuse to push it farther, is that a goat mentality? It's like his perfect resume matter more than anything else

For me guys like Shogun, AS, Overeem, are more close to goat statut than Khabib, despite many terrible losses

There is a taste of unachievement about Khabib career despite all he have done

Khabib was pro for over 12 years my guy.

It isn't the age of retirement that is a problem but the lack of quality defences/title fights. His certainly been great but his resume is thin compared to other more worthy goat candidates.

That said Khabib might not be done and has the chance to become the goat, but currently he has a way to go.

every day there's either a khabib is a goat thread or a Khabib is not a goat thread.

My question for you guys. Do you guys ever get tired of having that convo?

 

[RetiredSlave]

I dont like it either but he is an ATG regardless. His milage was mostly accrued from training not actual fights. Looks like he doesnt want GSP at WW and he is definitely too concerned with the goose egg.

Khabib was pro for over 12 years my guy.

12 years undefeated, 9 years undefeated in the world's most competitive MMA organization.

Khabib haters grasping at straws.

 

[Memeojima]

What? No way lol

 

[Emjay]

There's no such thing as GOAT

 

[Steve-French]

Goat LW yes, Goat P4P no.

 

[Hurricane Brad]

Others can consider him the GOAT I guess, everyone is entitled to their opinion. In my opinion he can't be the GOAT, because there are others with many more title defenses than him. He has a much better claim as the LW GOAT, although it's not a sure thing as BJ Penn has more defenses. Khabib has a better MMA record though and the LW division was deeper when he was contending for the belt, so I guess it depends what one values more.

 

[Arrrrgh]

It's a subjective topic.
Of course you can be GOAT at 32.

 

[BROWNPRIDE]

The Goat retires when he wants.

 

[Terrorist]

No. Everyone knows he retired prematurely. The actual reason is cause it was getting harder and harder to cut weight as he got older. Eventually he'd have to move up to ww where he'd get beat. Smart move to duck out while he could.

 

[Finding Deebo]

Yes, b/c Khabib was 32 when he retired...

Inshallah, my brother...

 

[dildos]

I agree.

Khabib is not a goat, in any way or form.

he ain’t no gsp or fedor yet.

 

[Derbemag]

Khabib is scared. He is just ducking Nate Diaz.

Name a better goat contender at LW

 

[hbombfromhell]

If God of War retired at 32, he'd still be God of War.

 

[Rod Farva]

I understand what you’re saying. He still has a lot left in the tank.

I’d rather see him get out now than hang around too long like a BJ Penn

 

[Maripucci]

Yeah 12 years bro. He started smashing WW's then went pro 8 yrs in the ufc and fought smaller LW's. He was a weight bully i think thats what the kids are calling him.
