Khabib is dominant but not fun to watch

Generally I agree the style is hard to watch. But Khabib is so effective and dominant that it makes him enjoyable to watch. Plus Khabibs speed alone always makes him fun to watch.

Colby on the other hand.....

Thats why it amazes me two ”boring fighter” Colby and Usman had one of my favorites titel fights.
 
He's arguably the most entertaining grappling oriented fighter in MMA.

Constantly working, looks to advance position, non stop gnp, and actively looks for the finish.

Its not like he's a Fitch/Usman wet blanket type that is content with having dominant position.
 
Khabib is great to watch you fucking rookie.
 
If you actually train you can even learn a thing or two from his fights.
 
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.

Welcome to the subjectivity of human nature. Some people like rock music, some classical, some jazz. Some people like action movies, some drama's, some documentaries. Some people like beer, some like wine. Some like pepperoni on their pizza, some like vegetarian pizza.

So why in the world would anyone expect everyone to agree on whether Khabib's fights are entertaining or not? Some people like them, some don't. That's just how human's work.
 
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.
I am a Conor fan. most posts reflect this. Khabib is a treasure to watch. Grapplers that actually "go for it" are the best
 
If you hate GnP, submissions, constant work on the ground, and generally high level grappling then you'd probably find not only Khabib but ever grappler in the ufc extremely boring

I, like most I would imagine, find him fascinating and amazing to watch. If you don't understand why, we wont understand each other.

Im the first person to have my face in my phone when it’s a boring grappling match but khabib comes to bring the pain. Dude is always looking to punish.

shame on you op
 
Nah, his dominance is part of what makes him so fun to watch. Of course some grappling-heavy fights can be boring, but that doesn’t mean all grappling is. I’ve seen some boring ass fights that consisted entirely of striking as well. Khabib mauls dudes, talks to them while he does it, and is extremely entertaining to watch.
 
Im a fan, it is MMA after all, however it does make the division a lot more exciting now that he is gone

Don't you think the fight with Conor was super intense and exciting, beating him up, 'hey lets talk'. 'Its only business' and then jumping out of the cage with a 2 footed tackle Dildo Danis. Come on, no fight in history has been that exciting.
