Khabib takedowns are mostly from the clinch

[Rear Nakey]

I think everyone is in agreement that if Khabib closes the distance and gets hold of Conor he'll smash him, but that if Conor can keep his distance and keep it on the feet he'll KO him.

No, we are not in agreement. If Khabib manages to land a takedown, he will do minimal damage before they are back on their feet. Then lights out.

 

[DevilsLettuce]

I estimate Conor's left will win that battle.

LOL! Remember how long midget Mendes had your little gazelle on his back for that fight? You think he'll be able to get up when Khabib is on top smashing his face in? He'll turn over and quit just like he did with Nate.

You should add Alvarez to that collage.

Because you're delusional.

He took down MJ with single legs as well. Has a complete takedown game. Single legs are the way to go against Conor since he has his lead foot forward with a wide stance. Can get him down from further away without as much of a risk to take the left when he's closing to clinch range.

What makes you think Khabib wouldn't be able to do any significant damage on the ground?

And Mendes still lost.

I am not even a Conor fan, but I will not underestimate his power again. I'd like to see Khabib win.

Are you high on meth or just functionally retarded? Do you seriously think that Conor will be able to get up with Khabib on top of him?? Lol.

 

[HHJ]

It should mean alot to you. Khabib will be hurt and knocked down like the rest, it's only a matter of time before Conor tags him with a left and ends it.

Or he just stands there and lets Khabib recover because he is scared of the ground,knowing Khabib is good off his back.

A little bit of both

Kebab vs. Magically Delicious. Go Kebab!

 

[ElLunico]

It really all depends if khabib's chin can take conors shots and can he get in range safely. Conor would pick him apart standing, while khabib would maul conor on the ground.

Its the ultimate striker vs grappler match
up. Conor is one of if not the best striker while khabib is the best grappler.

I got Conor TKO.

 

[fortheo]

Nate boxes his way into the clinch. Khabib takes a lot of shots. There's a good chance he gets stopped.

Khabib has the highest defense stats in the division last time I checked, so I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion that he takes a lot of shots.

because Conor nuthuggers say anything

 

[Rear Nakey]

1. He will not be able to keep Conor down
2. Conor will deliver more damage from the bottom, just like the Mendes fight.
3. Khabib punches like a girl.

 

[ReasonableMMAFan]

Lol. Conor will let him back him up and do it again.

 

[HHJ]

Lol. Conor will let him back him up and get taken down.

Sambo, baby.

The stats are skewed by the fact that he has faced only one top five fighter, and his fights have mainly been in top control. You need to look past the stats and actually watch his fights...
