Khabib is modern day Fedor

Yeah fedor turned into a ko machine later in his career
Its interesting actually. Earlier when he arguably had more success he actually had more submissions but when he started looking for those KOs is when he started to lose. I think he just got old and didnt want to mess with all the ground game stuff. Just an opinion though.
 
Everyone needs to cuill on the khabib train. He has 1 title defense. Wait until he has 8 or 10 before we start comparing him to the GOATs
 
Fedor fought bigger opponents
Khabib misses weight to. Fight smaller guys.
Fedors standup is miles ahead of khabibs.
Fedor was 1000x more exciting.
Khabib is a beast and totally dominates everyone he fights, but he cant hold a candle to fedor.
 
Khabib won't be able to feed on cans and freaks like Fedor did.
You mean the Fedor with almost 3 times as many top 10 wins as Khabib, is that the Fedor you say Khabib won't be able to feed on cans like?

It might just be me but I don't see how that could possibly make sense.....
 
So he’ll fall out of his “prime” any day now right?
Probably not since he only fights once or twice a year if we're lucky and isn't also simultaneously fighting a second basically MMA career in Sambo as well.

That should really help keep Khabibs milage down.
 
get the fuck outta here.

cant compare a human blanket that wont fight at his natural weight

to the greatest heavy weight ever. smh
 
Fedor was fighting bigger guys.
 
Nope, Fedor set the bar too high during his decade of dominance:

-10 years undefeated at HW
-27 win streak
-At least 13 top ranked wins
-More than 7 years in a row ranked #1
-Defended his #1 HW ranking spot 18 times
-Multiple time world champion under different orgs. and rules:

*Rings Openweight Championship
*Rings Absolute Class tournament winner
*Pride HW champion
*Pride HW Grand Prix world champion
*WAMMA HW champion
-
Over 70% of his wins were finishes
-Arguably didn't concede one round
-Didn't get outstruck or knocked down.
-Didn't need to cut weight.


To be honest, Khabib's fight vs. Tibau alone puts him out of the picture. He's a great fighter, but he's no Fedor.


What about Fedor vs Arona? Still in the picture?
 
Russian, undefeated, undisputed, undamaged, more dominant than anyone, destroys everyone in his path, never been rocked, humble, soft-spoken, likes desserts....yes? no? Discuss.
bahaha typical casual fan post

Not didnt want to. Injuries take its toll.
 
Any fighter with a Russian accent is just like Fedor.
 
Khabib is a diva with an absurdly oversized entourage.

Nothing like Fedor at all.
 
I dont remember him having major injuries, what did I miss?
Wear and tear,Back and knees

How long can he expected to hurl 300 lb dudes around like laundry bags??

Did dan henderson and rampage need to disclose major injuries when they stopped wrestling in their fights?

Khabib has defended his title and fought in the premier organization.

Khabib isn't fighting unranked fighters in freak show fights.
