Khabib has Jon Jones level of striking defence....and thats a good thing

[MuayThai101]

Much like Jones, he stands tall and chin straight up in the air. Good or bad? For his style? Good.

Why is it good? Well for one thing, his hands are always up. He always has his right hand on his chin. It is VERY hard to hit him clean. He is fast on his feet so he gets out the way. His distance management is really good. Much like Jones, he keeps his hand out there in your face to keep distance. He is more like jones than he is like Cain and DC. Too much bobbing and weaving will one day get you in trouble in MMA. A solid basic defence will get you further in this sport.

I saw very little s in his armor. Joe Rogan is a senile old man. Stop listening to his biased comments. Conor has the tools to find those s in his armor. But he only has 1 round to do so. Conor will be gassed the moment he gets up from a khabib ground and pound. Tony? He is not a KO artist. He cant hurt khabib. And i think khabib is immune to bjj.

Khabib beats everyone at LW....until the return of G.S.P.

I agree. His defense is very solid. It is hard to hit him clean with hooks and overhands.


However, straights could be a different story..

He fights super conservative and super boring....

Tell that to Al's face.

Also, that location is def. not a giveaway.

Felder would have been a better choice .

No, it's not a good thing.

Jones is tall and has extremely long reach, so he can get away with it. Khabib is short and has short reach.

Khabib will shortly be exposed. Assuming he fights, that is.

Khabib only needs standup good enough to avoid damage when he closes for takedowns. Once he has you down, it’s a long and hard time at the wrong end of GnP.
