Ed Ruth a Former 3x NCAA 1 Penn State champion, who is bigger and taller than khabib competes in Belator at 185lbs and 170 lbs and also also Kyle Crutchmer Division 1 were getting bested in pure MMA Wrestling by Khabib.Thompson explains to Big Mcarthy why Gaetjhe has no chance of stoping khabib and the Insane Russian Wrestling gives American wrestlers big problems because Khabib uses Judo Sambo BJJ all as a blender . Starts at 1:02 hour mark

And Gaetjhe wrestling doesn’t come close to ED ruth and justin is way smaller

Nobody expects Justin to wrestle. They just want to see what happens if a wrestler stuffs khabibs takedowns.
 
People always say shit like that to make noise.. Before GSP fought Alves, the hype from Alves Camp was "D-1 Wrestlers can't take him down, GSP got no shot"

Well GSP Rag-Dolled Alves..

You don't know until they fight..
 
Khabib never trained bjj. He is a judo/wrestling (sambo) hybrid

Khabib TD Acc. - Takedown Accuracy is 47%.. People act like nobody ever stuffed a TD..
 
Ed Ruth in MMA has not been impressive to be honest.

He has been talking down and stuffed quite often so.......

You think he has never trained bjj at aka? What? John Danaher has even said khabib has stopped in and trained there.

justin might stop a couple of takedowns, but eventually, he will get taken down and gassed. and the fight will be over...probably round 3 or 4.

Possibly but Justin is a different look. That what makes it interesting. I don’t see him backing against the fence and he has solid wrestling credentials to stuff takedowns.
 
Big John applying Sherdog logic while someone is providing a rational breakdown of this fight is hilarious.

You'll be waiting awhile. Michael Johnson took Gaethje down...Khabib is taking him down.

Yes but lots of sambo has pure Jiu jitsu in it same methods and teqnique. But khabib trained since 2012 with BJJ 4th degree leo Vera and recently on instegram thanked him by saying “ this guy help me change my ground game to next level. So khabib had all wrestling and judo Sambo tools and had decent ground game with it, but BJJ coach improved it to dominate next level with more subs and sub defense, Renzo Gracie said in 2016 that Khabib has amazing BJJ he rolled with him on several occasions he gave his manger Ali the black belt

Obviously, that's why it's called a predictions goof ball
 
Well, Gaethje spars Curtis Blaydes who puts both Ruth and Nurmagomedov into back pocket.
 
Edson Barboza stuffed a couple of Khabib TD and then got taken down anyways. Al stuffed a couple then got jabbed. Porier who seems bigger than geathje could not outmuscle him. Khabib is going to use his judo and get the fight to the ground. His trips and throws are phenominal. Now khabib has the first 2 rounds to submit Geathje. If he takes the 3rd round off he would get beat up.
 
Using chain wrestling and not having a well-timed double like GSP did will do that to you.

Khabib's wrestling is overrated, it's his top control once the fight hits the ground that is so dominating.

But if Khabib has only been able to produce a 50%> TD accuracy against fighters with sub par TDD, can we safely assume that his success would be even lower against Justin?.

Khabib will have to work harder for the TD's, against Justin, and they are far from guarantee'd, the question is can Justin capitalize on those failed attempts.

Watch the Tony vs Justin bout, watch how fast Just is able to throw hands, and than sprawl, this is the guy that stopped 20 double legs from the best double leg wrestler in the entire world in Jordan Burroughs.

I have no idea how people think this is going to be comparable to Conor. It's mind boggling
