I believe it's our primal instinct. If I held your head under water you would flail your arms around like a lil bitch cause that's what we do when we can't breath.
Khabib himself said it to DC, this isn't a fan theory. And i totally believe anything that comes out of Khabib's mouth...and the fact that DC credited the story makes me believe it even moreWatch the Rener Gracie breakdown. He went for mounted triangle but didn’t get his foot in the right place so switched to armbar. The only reason it went back to triangle is because Gaethje sat up into it defending the armbar. It wasn’t khabib’s choice... khabib fans have been reaching lately
This. Khabib isn't being "nice" during a fight with everything on the line like that fight. Khabib is good but we need a little common sense here.
Justin tapped to a choke just like anyone would have, of course he would have tapped to an armbar.
Its DC telling this.
I believe Khabib.
This isn't the first time we'd have seen it.
E.g.:
* Cowboy chose to sub Melvin Guillard because he didn't want to further damage him
* Machida gave the ref plenty of time to call it, I think vs CB Dolloway

True. Wasn't expecting that but when he got him at the end of the first...I knew he was screwed. There was no resistance whatsoever.Haters will say hes lying. Khabib literally could have done whatever he wanted with Gaethje on the ground.
Who is reaching? DC just said it.Watch the Rener Gracie breakdown. He went for mounted triangle but didn’t get his foot in the right place so switched to armbar.
