Khabib beating Conor in a rematch is more difficult than beating GSP

[Rajon Rondo]

GSP is near 40. Has had 1 fight since 2013 and that was against a one eyed bisping who is arguably the worst champ in modern history.

Assuming Conor beats Porier, that should call for a Khabib rematch.

Maybe

I'm sure Khabib isn't excited about a rematch with McGregor.

GSP finished Bisping,a bigger guy than anyone else he fought before,so i think its absolutley worth doing,and conor has nothing to do with this fight.

 

[Sweater of AV]

GSP UD's both on the same night and then heads to the club.

I thought this was going to be bait but its kinda sound to be honest.

I do agree beating gsp at 40 doesn't do much. It benefits GSP more if he beats khabib than it does khabib beating GSP.

I think for khabib's legacy to have that impact he wants of a GSP win, he'd have to go up and beat the WW champion whoever it is at the time. or dominate LW for a few more years.

Unpopular popular opinion.

At WW GSP bests Kahbib.

I actually wouldn't want to see the fight at LW as the cut (I'm assuming) would surely affect gsp's performance.

Khabib and GSP are both retired. Both left with the belt. GSP left with 2 belts. Conor is going to have to hold that humiliating loss for the rest of his life. And haters of the other two are just going to have to live with their salt as well. No matter how many lies, or bullshit narratives you guys pull out. The record books will live forever.

LOL Conor is a 2x time champ

 

[RicardinhoPT]

Yeah because the first fight was so competitive...

I think GSP would even be the favourite against Khabib

 

[JonJonesNeedle]

Well it's hard to tell, GSP is a bigger guy, and even if the fight is at 155 he could rehydrate a lot more as he's pretty muscular. He also consistently trains and is definitely a life long martial artist. I think he could be strong and fast enough to stuff some of Khabib's takedowns.

Conor will always be a dangerous fight because the fight starts standing. And in the first round, Conor is at his most dangerous. Still I don't think it would be more difficulty to beat Conor compared to GSP. The Conor fight lasted as long as it did because Conor was blatantly cheating constantly, even in the round that he won. It probably could have been over in the second round with that kimura if not for the illegal knee and Khabib wanting to show off by getting Dana's attention.

Khabib absolutly smoked Conor. Conor can't have evolved that much since then, he was just completly dominated.
At least, GSP brings some novelty. Many considers him the greatest fighter ever, so, let's do that instead of watching 10 minutes of McGregor getting pounded against the cage. First time was enough for me.

 

[gevoudane]

I dont think so.
No version of Conor beats Khabib.

Gsp wins at ww

I know it's popular to shit on Conor on these forums but truth be told he did a lot better than the majority of Khabib's opponents. That being said, GSP is a much harder fight for Khabib.

 

[Kha'bless]

When Khabib beats Conor in a rematch Conor should then beat Max at 155 and get another crack at Khabib and this should continue until Conor finally beats Khabib somehow so his fans can sleep soundly and if Conor NEVER wins it's because he wasn't motivated or came in every single fight with broken bones.

Turn Conor's cheating switch off, how would he have done. Khabib shouldn't give Conrat a rematch based on the fact he is ALLOWED to cheat all he wants and might pull something off due to it.

 

[HHJ]

GSP i dont think should attempt to make 155 at 40 yrs old. This will probably be a catchweight fight. But Dana dont like catchweight fights,so it would really have to be Khabib's final fight for really reals.

Herb Dean absolutley should not ref anymore Conor fights if he cant remember how to do his fuckin job.

Islam Mackachev should be appointed the ref next time he and Khabib square off,to make it fair.

@Ackmed besides Islam being heir apparent to the 155 throne,and goat nutritionist,how well can he referee matches with impartiality and calling it right down the middle??

 

[Trainspotter]

GSP would smoke Conor and Khabib one after the other even at his age.
