Media Khabib think Gaethje dont deserve TS.

[Ackmed]

I can't find that tweet on Khabib's actual twitter page....but I'm also not good at using twitter.

Me neither, the closest I found was Khabib telling Nate Diaz to "just shut up" in 2015 lol

Islam beat no ones and hasnt taken many chances compared to Justin

 

[Volumes]

If you really believe this is Khabib you are stupid

 

[Bourbaki]

I liked Khabib more when he was active and laconic.
Also Justin beat the guy who annihilated Islam's biggest win in the first round.

 

[MMAProfessional]

Meh. I don't think Islam deserves it either with a win over Hooker. The Chandler win again hooker was different because he was established in Bellator and they needed someone to step in. I say do Islam vs Gaethje, winner gets the title.

Go to ESPNMMA page on instagram you will see a picture with Gaethje, under that post you will se Khabibs comment.

Gaethje would KO Khabib if they ever fought. Too bad he retired early.

 

[dogsdonutsdragons]

seems to me like ali his style of writing

khabib would never say shut up like that

so weird tho

min this case I can see kabib getting emotional over it because he’s right and it related to his friend who should have already had his shot

Thanks, I'm linking it here for others.

Context matters - Khabib is replying to Garthje talking about "traversity to the integrity of the sport" <45> that comment is about as diva as it gets and needed a response to shut up

Hey Khabib and DC! Come back when Islam fought at least 1 guy from the top 5 of the division before thinking about a title shot. I give him that win against Hooker(who stepped in very late) but come on...

How about Gaethje fight Islam?

Islam isn't the one shitting on the UFC in the event he doesn't get an immediate TS. If Justin is champ-worthy, he should be confident in his ability to get a two-fight win streak by facing Islam.

 

[JonJonesNeedle]

Khabib is 100% correct.

Islam and Daruish are more deserving for a TS than Gaethje.

If Islam gets the TS, then Gaethje should fight Daruish. If Daruish gets the TS, then Gaethje should fight Islam.

Gaethje
“At the end of the day, he breathes oxygen. His brain needs to get oxygen. If I can short-circuit that oxygen supply for half a second, then he’ll go to sleep.”
“So my only goal when I step in there is to create as many car crashes as possible. Whether it be our bodies hitting, our heads hitting, our f**king shoulders hitting, my fist hitting his head, his fist hitting my head, it doesn’t matter – I need to create car crashes because it’s the only way to beat this guy.”

“I know I will see his blood. So, I want him to see his blood, and I want to see his reaction.” I don’t think he’s as crazy as me, and I’m not sure what it’ll be, but I’m pretty sure he’s gonna freak out a little bit.”

I still think Gaethje have PTSD from the Khabib fight and he knows what will happen when he fights Islam. This is why he wants to fight for the titel before facing Islam.

This version of Islam will make it easier then Khabib.

Last 9 UFC fights;

-Gaethje; 6 wins 3 losses

-Dariush; 7 wins 1 loss 1 draw

-Islam; 9 wins 0 loss

Last 9 UFC fights:

- Gaethje: Exclusively well known top5 or top10 guys. Chandler, Khabib, Tony, Cerrone, Baroza, Vick, Dustin, Alvarez, Johnson

- Dariush: As single top name and I think 8 guys outside the top10. unknowns like Holtzman, Cmancho, Dunham...

- Islam: Same. A single top name, some borderline top tens and many unknowns. Guys like Chris Wade and Kajan Johnson...who?

PS: I know Islam has had a tough time getting top fights, I don't blame him for his record, just saying in terms of looking at records to determine title fights - his list of names isn't the best.

Fair enough! I'm up for that eliminator! By the way I wasn't criticising Islam just a bit annoyed by Khabib and DC on that topic

Damn bruh, brutal

 

[Simple Southerner]

Pure bias. Justin definitely deserves it in rn over Islam.

 

[NickDiaz]

Justin vs. Chandler was a great fight

But let's be honest

He couldn't even finish Chandler and had several opportunities


Justin a stud but not championship caliber


Olives, Porier, Islam, Dariush all beat Justin
