I think what will happen is that they’ll both shoot at the same time and knock each other cold.
Head on head, yep.

Yes, Khabib's greatest nemesis will be another 200lber who has a hard time, like him, making weight. Yes, those two 200lbers should fight for the 155lb strap.His wrestling seems very high level, Barboza had no answer to it. Kevin was even taking down Ferguson at will, albeit tapped to Ferguson’s elite submission skills.
Could it be that this type of fighter who also has decent stand up skills would have a good shot at being Khabib?
Tibau? 100% NattyThough I have not seen much of Khabibs defensive wrestling (hmm I guess he did kind of lose against that gigantic dude who used to fight at LW before USADA, hardly remember the fight tbh)his grappling over all is great enough for me to favor Khabib going in to the fight.
So true. Last week people were arguing for a Dustin title shot and now it's all about Lee.Lol. The guy who most recently had a good performance is always the next nightmare matchup
Lee definitely would get wrecked. Tony would also get wrecked. Tony is no wizard on the bottom where khabib would put him. Most of his subs are from top not bottom & khabib would be too much. I don't even care to mention the conor match, because it's not happening. Conor won't fight again he's doneKhabib is better everywhere. He will wreck Kevin, it won't be competitive. Conor and Ferguson are the only two that can beat Khabib, Conor due to having supreme standup and Ferg due to having a sick bottom game and exceptional cardio. And Id still favor Khabib over both. You don't go 26-0 without having been in trouble and not losing a round unless you are something special. Khabib is special, Kevin is not.
People need to wake up. Lee would get smashed against khabib. He's beat no-one. If he rematched chiesa he would loseHis wrestling seems very high level, Barboza had no answer to it. Kevin was even taking down Ferguson at will, albeit tapped to Ferguson’s elite submission skills.

Who is this gigantic dude you speak of(hmm I guess he did kind of lose against that gigantic dude who used to fight at LW before USADA, hardly remember the fight tbh)his grappling over all is great enough for me to favor Khabib going in to the fight.
Gleison Tibau, had forgotten the name thats why I wrote gigantic dude. It's insane how he made LW all those fightsWho is this gigantic dude you speak of
Khabib isn't a pure wrestler. What he does can't be called wrestling. He more like incorporates some of his sambo with Judo & maximum of his takedowns comes from upper body trips that you use to to get to see in Judo.
While Kevin is a pure Freestyle & also folkstyle wrestler. His single & double legs are technically more sound than Khabib's chain wrestling. He also has moderate BJJ & definitely better at striking than Khabib. His top control is more vicious than Khabib and also can fight off his back.
IMO he is the kryptonite for Khabib.
