Khabib’s boxing skills

[FlyingDeathKick]

The fact anybody thinks Khabib would have a chance is crazy. Somebody like Masvidal, Holloway, or the Diaz bros might be at least somewhat interesting but Khabib will make Conor look great if this fight happens.

Let’s just say the Floyd fight happens.

We all 100% agree the odds are on mayweathers side and even khabib acknowledges that.. however.

Hug boxing is a thing. I truly belive khabib will be able to do really well off lasting way longer than Conor, giving effective punches throughout entire 12 instead of just first 4 like Conor and constantly hug mayweather to punch and rehug to make it a lot harder to deflect.


Cornering mayweather will be khabibs priority by pushing him as he hugs him to one and then punching throughout.

Hug boxing is Floyd's speciality

Its also possible Floyd is pissed about how the fans called him out carrying Conor for multiple rounds, and completely kills Khabib to make a point.

He gets humiliated against Floyd.

Are you serious?! Floyd and his people will be getting Russian money in Russian bank accounts (IRS has ZERO power in RUSSIA unlike most of the world). Floyd has business interests in Russia. Floyd has stated that he would take Russian citizenship (like Roy Jones Jr.). Floyd definitely has enough street smarts to string this thing out to a decision and get another rematch.
