Khabib Nurmagomedov:
Rafael Dos Anjos WW #3 UD
Edson Barbosa LW #6 UD
Al Iaquinta LW #9 UD

Conor McGregor:
Max Holloway FW Champ UD
Dustin Poirier LW #3 TKO 1
Chad Mendes FW #5 TKO 2
Jose Aldo FW #2 TKO 1
Nate Diaz LW #11 SUB 2 LOSS
Nate Diaz LW #11 MD
Eddie Alvarez LW #4 TKO 2

Two things I learned from the research:
1. Conor's run at FW is underrated on Sherdog
2. Michael Johnson isn't ranked at Featherweight
 
I actually wouldn't mind seeing MJ vs McG to be honest.

Both south-paws, with SOLID hands.
 
Conor got finished by Nate Diaz

Khabib is undefeated
 
Conor knocking out future/former champs and contenders is one of the best run in ufc history

Thank you for this. Conor is a great man and good father.
 
Nearly all the guys on Conor's list are midgets/dwarf people while fighters say Khabib feels like a LHW.

Conor still doesn't know what he signed up for.

Conor got a taste of a bigger man with journeyman Diaz but Khabib is champ material, bigger and about 3x stronger.
 
-Holloway was green.
-Poirier had personal issues going on before the fight.
-Mendes was short notice.
-Aldo had a tough cut and was too angry to be fighting.
-He lost to Nate both times.
-Alvarez didn't realize what he was getting into and didn't train properly. I'm pretty sure someone slipped something in his water before the fight too.

Pretty sure you’re joking but You can do that to every fighters.
 
Khabib - 4 Finishes in Last 10 fights
Conor - 8 Finishes in Last 10 fights

Khabib is a classic Lay 'N Prayer. Conor at minimum will get 5 shots to KO him at the beginning of each round. I'll take Conor on those odds.

Do you know what lay and pray means? I guess Tito was a lay and prayer too.
 
Thanks for your effort TS but I want to know the opponent's ranking at the time of the fight.

Also, a reference for the rankings.

Be waiting right here.
 
Can you see from your thread that Khabib is undefeated and McGregor was finished by #11?

Counting Conor's win over Max as a top win is like counting Duffy's win over Conor as a high level win.

Conor beat Max 5 years ago, 4 years before Max ever became champ.
 
I remember when people on here were saying McGregor would be exposed by anyone in the top 5. :rolleyes:
 
You're spinning the data for "current" because it looks better for Connor. Add mj and Healy to khabib

Michael Johnson who has lost 5 of his last 6 and gets subbed at Featherweight?
