Is not the first time he can't make 155... Just go to ww, so many good fights at that division, starting with Maia...
 
That would be a career killer for Khabib. Barao moved up and did terrible, Cerrone got murked by a balooned lw at ww and Hendricks would get wrecked by the top 5 at mw. Moving up is for the most part a terrible idea.

Masvidal doesn't balloon to WW, he was too big for LW. Also all of that is their problem. If this shit happens again then Kebab will never be offered LW fights again.
 
WW won't make him impervious to FLUKE ILLNESS
 
Nah... He'll be fine...

He needs to stop missing weight though and be a professional.

They will run it back... I don't see any other way...

This fight has way too much hype behind it to let it fall through.
 
Hes made the weight before, son.

The guy is just as reliable as a swiss condom.

Khabib is screwed. Keeps of missing weight at lw but at the same time he will struggle against way bigger guys at ww. Woodley would stuff his takedown and knock him out stiff.
 
I agree. Make him fight at WW or cut him. If he's really that skilled in wrestling he should do fine. Just like Hendricks and Kelvin at MW.
 
The biggest fight he can get now is a reschedule against Tony, and I think he'd be very lucky to get that. Even that might not be something the UFC want to do just in-case this exact scenario happens again. 170 may be the only place to go now. Gastelum was rightly vilified for trying to get to 170 and continually failing and has no choice but to fight at 185 now. I'm not saying Habeebi is in that kind of trouble yet but he's not far off.
 
This is the second time.

I don't want to go Woodley here but they sent Gastelum to MW after the second time he missed weight so yea.
 
If by ww you mean back to Russia, than I agree.

You don't wanna bring 'that Ferguson back out' of Woodley
 
He needs to fuck off and get in line behind the top 5. This shit is annoying, all the talking he does but he can't get 3 fights in 5 years time. Like I said when this fight was announced, I' ll believe it will happen when the cagedoor closes.
 
Khabib needed to have focused on his fight and weight cut instead of crying about McGregor at every opportunity.

McGregor really does fuck with fighters' heads, it's amazing.
