Mendes is one of the best wrestlers in MMA. His initial shot is much better than Khabib's for example. But he's much smaller and not as heavy on top.
If Khabib gets Conor down he's in BIG trouble, but Khabib is often reckless forcing the clinch, he needs to be careful.
Exactly. Mendes shoots power doubles, and Khabib swarms with punches to work for a clinch. But I agree with you -- once Khabib gets someone down, his top game is better than Mendes.
I think there's a very good chance Khabib gets KO'd rushing in wildly.
