Anyone else have a bad feeling about Khabib/Raging Al?

[nostradumbass]

This just kind of feels like one of those fights that seems like it would be an easy pick but turns out to be a huge upset, like Ronda/Holm, Rose/Joanna, GSP/Serra. Khabib is obviously the better fighter, but Al is dangerous and if Khabib gets too comfortable thinking he can do whatever he wants, he could get into trouble.

 

[Moral Victory]

I agree, it's still most likely that Khabib will smash him, but it'll be mostly by will and mentality.

Al is underrated, he has good boxing and wrestling and he'd rather go out than tap, but Khabib will probably break him to some degree.

But i still think Al could hurt him on the feet, for as long as it stays there, and maybe he has just enough wrestling to give him time to do it.

Seems like one of those fights where people feel inclined to suspect an upset but then everything goes according to plan

 

[Joe_Armstrong]

Is that a bad feeling ?
It would be awesome if Al KO's Khabib.

 

[Mae]

I'm pretty some people always feel that way about every major fight.

 

[Sonny Qc]

Nope

 

[computer fogie]

Nah, Khabib is too reliable.

There has already been multiple threads similar to this.

At least some of those guys put money on it.

 

[rurouni]

khabib takes him dn at will...and well...we know what happens from there

 

[Soul On Ice]

I got Khabib but I expect a fight tho
Al is legit

 

[Azure]

LOL I just made a thread about this

[IloveTHIS]

I just made a thread similar to this so yes.

People talk about punchers chance. Al has possibly the best punchers chance in the division. He has retarded power and is in his prime, riding a 5 fight win streak 4 coming by knockout.

Not a safe fight for Khabib by any means

 

[Gilday]

Yeah I feel it too

I wouldn't be too disappointed since I'm a big fan of Al, but I'm a big Khabib fan and tbh I've talked too much shit the last few days to Conor fans I can't afford for him to lose now

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

I expect Khabib will win, but I don't think it will be so easy. Raging Al has good wrestling and he is athletic too with accurate and crisp punches. He is strong too, he just pushed Kevin Lee over when Lee tried to shoot on him. I got Khabib but I won't be surprised if Al puts up a good fight and it goes into late rounds or decision.

khabib by consumate ease
