Ben Askren vs Khabib

[bettergenes]

Can someone tweet Askren to call out Khabib for a grappling match in Metamoris or wherever those grappling matches are held nowadays? I'd like to see this... I bet many of you as well.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Yep, would pay to see that one.

Probably the 2 best MMA wrestlers today.

 

[Davey Crockett]

I like it but the size advantage for assgrin would leave me annoyed if he won

 

[BGDDYKWL]

That would definitely be interesting. When you have two guys THAT good often size can be the determining factor.

 

[phunky]

Common

 

[dickcheney]

You should just become a promoter and make it happen please

They're both 5 ft 10 in. Ben has more fat, that's it. I"m sure Khabib is stronger.

 

[mudrubble]

Well Askren trains with the GOAT, Woodley, so he would have picked up the domination skills to win...

Yeah...

Because, I really want to see a top contender in the UFC involved in a fuckery match, against a bigger guy. Outside of the UFC. Especially, a top contender known to have injury issues.

Jeebus.

The crotch crickets are all over that shit.

wrestlers that aren't jacked are always underrated in the strength department. He's probably just as strong as Khabibs, never seen either of them doing serious strength training tbh

I"m sure Khabib is stronger.

How can you possibly be confident of that?

Yep. Hendo never looked super jacked or shredded and his impressive strength is a pretty well-known thing

Punching is so much of Khabibs game son the mat though.... id like it in mma though

 

[mjfan23]

I favor Askren in straight wrestling but in sub grappling i think khabib is better with his aggressive style and position advances.

 

[bettergenes]

How can you possibly be confident of that?

This is just my intuition.

If not pretty damn close to the top 2

 

[Canned Tuna]

[Shammon]

I'd pay to watch that as well.

Askren is probably a better wrestler but Khabib probably has better BJJ.

 

[rearnakedchoke]

A rusty gsp smokes them both.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

It would be fun to watch but Dana would have a heart attack after Askren beats Khabib

I don't believe anyone in MMA (around those weight classes) would beat Askren in a wrestling match
