ohh 100%, Valentina is better than Nunes. M point is, is that Valentina actively goes for the finish, whereas Khabib is happy to cruise to a decision.
I sincerely think you misunderstand Khabib, entirely. Khabib is a finisher if he wants to be. If you watch his earlier fights, he finishes many people.
Khabib's MO is to punch, smash, kick, and beat people into submission. If they don't submit, he is happily to beat them mercilessly for as long as possible. Khabib enjoys completely dominating his opponents, punishing them, humiliating them, talking to them, wanting
to break their spirit.
Truth be told, fighters who "finish someone quickly" do
not necessarily establish that they are absolutely, positively, the better man. Sometimes a flash KO is a fluke, and therefore unconvincing. Flukes can happen one way or the other.
On the other hand, absolutely dominating someone, absolutely beating them, pummeling them, being on top of them,
from start to finish, proves beyond
all question you are thoroughly the superior fighter.
If I may quote the great Marvelous Marvin Hagler, "
Oh I don't try to get you out of there right away. I take my time with you, I give you an ass whipping, and I make sure you're not the same man when you get out of here, as you were when you crawled in here."
This is Khabib's MO. He wants to absolutely positively
beat your ass, every second of every round, to prove he is absolutely better than you are ... and
that is what he does.
If you watched how he handled Dustin Poirier, he was actually kind to him, compared to many others. He handled him mercifully, I think because he liked him as a person.
Not the same with McGregor and others ...
anyway, lets agree to disagree.
That's fine, have a good one.
