Short notice Chad easily took Conor down, Khabib had to work very hard to do the same.
Chad was busy on the ground, landing numerous vicious elbows. Khabib was inactive and happy to just smother him.
Chad hit Conor with 4 or 5 bombs, Khabib landed one shot on an off balance Conor.
Chad almost finished Conor while Conor was still fresh. Khabib never threatened to finish Conor until Conor was exhausted.
Chad fought an active and peak Conor. Khabib fought a balloon footed Conor trying to shake 2 years of ring rust.
Chad didn't lose a round to Conor. Khabib did.
Chad > Khabib?
Another absolute idiot who knows nothing.
Chad Mendes backed up nearly every single second he faced Conor. He completely lost all fistic exchanges.
Chad Mendes was gasping and sucking for air, even in Round 1, and his cardio was compromised midway through the first stanza.
In desperate attempts, Mendes did get Conor down early, but was not nearly as dominant on top as was Khabib in Round 1.
It is absolutely laughable to compare Round 2 between the two fighters, since Chad Mendes got KO'd in that round, while Khabib dropped Conor, down him, and spent the entire round beating his fogging ass.
Since Mendes didn't even make it to Round 3, this discussion should basically be over. Round 3 was the only round Conor was even able to be on his feet with Khabib for more than a few seconds. Yes, the judges gave it to Conor, but the reality is Khabib bitch-slapped Conor, and was backing him up at the end of the round, smashing them against the fence as well.
Naturally, Round 4 head Khabib again downing Conor, raping him on the ground, forcing him to tap, leaving him a destitute, defeated LOSER ... who refused to even stand for several seconds, because his soul had been owned.
If you want to think Mendes "did better" than Khabib, then at least take solace that you are one of many idiots on this forum who doesn't know the first fogging thing about anything.
