-I know Khabib competes in the most stacked division in MMA history, but it's pointless to really credit Khabib when Khabib hasn't fought the best at LW - and when Khabib has NO wins over any currently top 5 ranked LWs
- Yes, Khabib has beaten strikers, but he's never beaten an elite striker as elite as Conor. Rousey herself KOd some strikers until she met a truly elite one.
The most honest comparison you could make to Khabib is Rousey. Both are world class grapplers who seemed indestructible due to matchmaking (again, even though Khabib is in the most stacked division in MMA, just look at how many top LWs Khabib avoided or never fought)
Rousey dominated with grappling just like Khabib
Even though Rousey beat strikers she had never faced anyone with the striking and striking experience of Holm.
Does that ring a bell?
That's exactly like Conor vs Khabib
Even though Khabib has beaten some good strikers he has never faced anyone with the elite striking of Conor and world class experience of Conor
People like to rag on Conor, but Conor has fought and beaten nothing but the absolute best of the best in MMA. Holloway, Aldo, Mendes, Alvarez, Poirier etc
Conor even shared the ring with the best in boxing, and went 10 rounds
The kind of experiences Conor has gained and has, is the kind of experience you can never just get on your own, train for, or prepare for
Khabib has never experienced the highest level of MMA
While Conor has for most of his career
Khabib has never experienced sharing the ring with any master, in any one craft, like Conor just did sharing the ring with Floyd, and going a 10 hard rounds in boxing (which by the way means Conor's cardio is going to be on another level now returning to MMA)
Once Ronda went up against Holm she was drowned out by Holm's experience. She had not clue what to do
Khabib has never experienced the highest level, he's never fought anyone even remotely as skilled of a striker as Conor is
How is he going to handle Conor's footwork, counter punching, fight IQ, experience. Just look to what happened to Rousey the first time she had to deal with a truly elite striker who had footwork and counter punching. The similarities are erie.
And both Holm and Conor are the underdogs
While both Holm and Conor are hungry, training with fire, and taking Rousey/Khabib as seriously as possible to expose them
That's a huge stretch. Nurmagomedov is not Rousey.
the similarities are actually quite close, both with god aweful standup and both great at grappling, what arent you getting ?That's a huge stretch. Nurmagomedov is not Rousey.

Conor striking is not elite. If he was elite striker he wouldnt lost to nate in first match and 2ND match he would have put nate away. floyd toyed with him, I he was elite floyd would fought defense not offense push forward.

Neither does Conor
Neither has Conor faced an elite grappler, at least one who is his size and has more than 10 days notice. Despite that, Mendes showed some success in out grappling Conor.
How many top LWs has Conor fought/never fought?
Grappling is a catch all term for many different disciplines. Khabib certainly has more of a varied grappling arsenal than Rousey. The talent pool he faces is also infinitely deeper than what Ronda was facing.
Even though Conor has beaten a wrestler who was smaller than him and wasn't even peaking physically on fight night, he's never faced anyone with the grappling experience of Khabib.
Even though Conor has beaten some good strikers he has never faced anyone with the elite grappling of Khabib and world class experience of Khabib. See? I can play these silly games too.
You can't claim to be knowledgeable about boxing, Mr. Boxingislife, and not understand that Floyd basically carried Conor and made him look like an absolute idiot in what amounts to a half-assed sparring match.
I'm not even going to continue with the rest as it is so incredibly simplistic and uninspiring.
You would appear much more believable if your posts weren't so ridiculously one-sided, but as it stands, you really come across as a pseudo-intellectual wannabe who has never seen the inside of a gym, and uses this persona you've created to feed some rabid teeny-bopper obsession with Conor McGregor.

Yeah but you left out one thing. Khabib ain't drinking so much of his Koolaid that he thinks he has a chance striking with Conor. That's where Ronda messed up. She actually believed she was a better striker than Holm.
