Khabib is dominant but not fun to watch

Two important buzz words, or phrases from you says it all..

Crotch sniffing, and proper.

2 1/2 years later and still unable to process your feelings. You’re only here to watch Conor, and he never fights. I bet the reality is that you’re pissed off that your hero never fights. 2 fights in 4 1/2 years. That must be frustrating.

Whats wrong with the word "Proper" are you that much of a hater that you hate the word simply because it reminds you of Conor's whiskey haha?

Crotch sniffing is an pretty apt description of your Khabib's/Usman's styles and it winds people like you up too which is a bonus.
 
Nah, watching Khabib just completely beat the fucking dogshit out of people is entertaining as hell. Even most of his decision wins that are brutally one sided like his fights against Barboza or dos anjos are entertaining IMO.

I'll take dominant ground n pound or submissions over 5 rounds of jabs and leg kicks all day. Casuals tend to like the rock em socke em robot stuff, which is entertaining too, but they don't seem to understand what's even happening with some of the high level grappling. When we watched Khabib's last fight one of my good friends and his girlfriend were convinced that Khabib had just lost when he just choked the dude out with a triangle. They though khabib hit gaethje with a cheap shot after the ref stopped the fight and that's why gaethje was out until they saw the replay. This sounds hilarious to people that are into MMA, but a lot of people are clueless when it comes to this sport. This same guy was telling me earlier in the night about how Bruce Lee could destroy any of these guys and thought we were all nuts when we just sorta laughed and another buddy of mine told him some nobody regional guy fighting at the casino down the road would choke Bruce out, much less any of these guys.

You guys quote him at every opportunity. Just read the threads. It’s the same rhetoric post after post, that I’ve seen for two years. You can’t come up with a single original thought. You just parrot what he says.

Rat, nobody can take that left, or dbl barrel shotgun, head clean off, first exchange 100/100, Khabib is running from Conor, too afraid to rematch him..etc, ad infinitum.

There’s no serious analysis, or discussion about how or why he could win. Just the same garbage over, and over. It really gets boring, and annoying.
 
I'm not the biggest Khabib fan, but if you don't think he is exciting, MMA probably isn't for you.
 
Some people with the 'boring" crap just kills me. They really should go away and watch something else that excites them.
 
Khabib was one of the most entertaining fighters ever. One boring fight against Tibau where nobody really did anything can be forgiven

The Eagle finished his historic career demolishing 3 of the best LWs ever not named Khabib. All three fights were packed with excitement and Khabib put on legendary performances

I'm not sure what you expect from MMA but I don't think it's for you

who take pleasure watching a fight of Khabib honestly? We only watch to know if he will loose or not this time. If someone will have an answer at Khabib efficient style.

Good he is retired now, no more boring champ at LL.

he is actually fun to watch don´t know what you are talking about, he finishes fights
 
I don’t enjoy watching him fight that much myself, but the lure of hoping someone will beat him is why I tune in.
 
His last 3 fights we're crazy, heck even his fight with Al had nice moments.

I feel he got better with time and his style got more fan friendly as well.
 
That’s just your opinion, and I am very happy to disagree with it.
 
For me I always felt like the guy everyone loves to watch but I can't stand to watch is Max Holloway

Volume striker with pillow hands and an iron chin. You know he isn't going to knock anyone out and you know he himself wont be knocked out. Absolute snoozers vs Volk x2 and Frankie.

This pretty sums up all Khabib fans. You only like him for beating Conor but without Conor he is boring and irrelevant. So its really just Conor you are a massive mark for.

This pretty much sums up all Khabib haters. In reality, you only hate him for beating up your #1 crush Conor Mcgregor with ease. It's pathetic really and shows just how all over McGregors nuts you are.
 
I think he’s a terrible person but extremely entertaining to watch
 
Khabib is dominant because he is a WW killing himself to make LW, a division already full of non wrestlers. But I do find him very entertaining.

Exactly what I was thinking

6.5' 275 10s - average sherdogger
Iq 130s

Those stats are average on sherdog...

I think those are the minimum requirements to be allowed to post on Sherdog, the average will be more like 6'8", 300, IQ in the 170 range.

I was gonna say... that is the minimum at best... i'm literally a greek god, sending this from olympus.
 
I do. Not only is it awesome watching him be on such a beast level of grappling, but the beatings he lays down are kind of surreal, and hearing him talk to them while he does it is hilarious. "I deserve this. You know this"

He is boring, just because I find his style boring doesn't mean I don't understand the sport, I'm not denying his style is effective its just not the most entertaining style for me. Its all subjective, some people enjoy watching the crotch sniffing side whilst others appreciate the striking side more, being a fan of the former doesn't make you more of a proper fan or more knowledgeable.

Again, why do you watch MMA?
