Fedor says Khabib has "gaps in his technique" rofl

[Bu11etproof_JBE]

Are you casual new era millennials really trashing Fedor? Hes giving Khabib a proper assessment.

Nothing for nothing, but people will remember many of Fedor's exciting fights. Khabib's boring lay n pray wins, not so much.

Henderson is 6 years older then Fedor, how is it that Fedor was at the end of his career, but Hendo wasn't? Both of them were past their prime.

In any event, Dan lost to Jake Shields, a career welterweight, a few fights prior to starching Fedor. A few fights before that he got put away by Anderson in the second round.

Dan was a medium-to-average sized middleweight. Small by today's standards. He was cartoonishly small for light heavyweight.

Hendo was roided. Does that have no effect on longevity lol?

He only had real success at LHW at that point, vs guys that are really no smaller than Fedor.
Clearly he was not "cartoonishly" small, when he fought Feijao, Shogun, Rashad, Machida.

He was on TRT and had ZERO changes to his physical appearance when he was off TRT.

If you were not aware, there were multiple commissions who did not approve his TRT and he was off it entirely for his fight with Rashad. He looked and performed exactly the same.

He got dominated by a career welterweight Jake Shields a few fights before smashing Fedor.

Both Rashad and Machida would go down to middleweight. Its like you don't even follow this stuff?

Lmao, what are you even babbling about?

1.) Soon after getting off the TRT, Hendo's chin went out the window. You really want to compare his performances around his time in S-force and back to UFC to the multiple KOs he suffered after?
2.) Great? He also beat top LHWs who were no smaller than Fedor right after. What point are you trying to make lol? Anderson lost to Takase and Chonan a couple years before Henderson too, relevance?
3.) Yeah, that just shows how much weight cutting goes on. Both those guys could fight at LHW and even HW if they cut no weight, like Fedor routinely did.

Hendo was roided, and ignoring that performance aspect is just laughable. Utterly discredits anything else you have to say.
He was also a top LHW at the time.

He praised Khabib and said his striking can use improvement, which even Khabib would agree with. Nice troll attempt.

Too late. There will be 12 pages of "fedor suxs bro"

Lol dude seems triggered by the fact that Khabib has overtaken him as Russian goat and overall goat (2nd to Jones only). Guy who got demolished by bigfoot and maldonado speaking on gaps in Khabib's technique lol

"Khabib has found his style, wins by using his strengths. That’s good because he is a UFC champion and uses his strengths. In these elements he stands above his rivals,” Emelianenko said.

“However, Khabib must, of course, patch the gaps in its technique. For example, in the technique of punches and kicks. But he also does everything right. He also has time to polish these techniques to become even better.”

Fuckin Bellator fighters ko'ing this dude and khabib is the one who needs to patch striking gaps

Are you using a very out of prime Fedor as an example for your argument?

Henderson got completely tooled by Anderson Silva at middleweight. A few fights later, he gets completely tooled by Jake Shields - a career welterweight - in a StrikeForce middleweight fight.

His career record was 27-8 when he fought Fedor and he lost both of his UFC title shots and his StrikeForce title shot. He wasn't the best or near the best.

I'm sorry you feel hurt that he summarily beat Fedor. If it makes you feel any better, he was the third consecutive guy in a row to do it. They were both over the hill by then anyhow.

 

[NoSmilez]

It's a fair assessment. Khabib's striking isn't the best. What if Khabib made a comment about Fedor's wrestling?

 

[PEDS Help me Post]

Its true. Khabib has yet to face a great american wrestler.

He probably would if there were any "great american wrestler"'s in his division.
