Khabib vs Maia. who wins?

[7yrWHITEbelt]

Maia with big size advantage. Khabib with bear wrestling advantage

 

[Kyler Ruxin]

Maybe Maia in his prime, but right now I'd hafta give it to Khabib because of cardio. Maia is bigger and may be the better grappler, but I don't think he gets the submission early and even if Khabib is losing early, he'll keep working and tire Maia out.

Would be fun to see though.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Not sure, but that would be an epic grappling match.

Clash of the Titans.

 

[Fuzzybabyducks]

I think if they fought one would want to win.,

Id say Maia

 

[Gabkicks]

Khabib takes him down and beats him up for all 3 or 5 rounds.

 

[Rod Farva]

Wow. I think I would go with Maia

 

[Gabkicks]

Khabib outgrappled and took down multiple times Olympic qualifier wrestler, Kamal Shalorus in his UFC debut

Khabib's grappling transcends big world championships. especially in MMA

Khabib beats Maia easily

 

[dmwalking]

Maia's too big and Khabib is good, but he's no Marcelo Garcia. Maia by RNC.

 

[lagofala]

Defensive wrestling beats no gi bjj. Maia's been held down before.

 

[HelloJapan]

Maia, by size, experience, and he's a higher level in his discipline then Kabib is. Kabib has never fought someone of Maia's level on the ground, but Maia has fought very good, even elite wrestlers...beat some of them, lost to a few, but his loses were them basically avoiding the ground with him like the plaque...yes, I'm looking at you Tyrun and Cody.

 

[Shammon]

Maia is only a master on top. His guard isn't anything spectacular. Khabib takes him down and controls him to a UD ala Jake Shields IMO.

I'll assume you're talking about Jake. Jake and Kabib are not similar grapplers. Oh, and No Gi BJJ can certainly kill elite wrestling.

 

[Shaddows]

Maia with big size advantage. Khabib with bear wrestling advantage

Maia.
Khabib takes people down. these people want to stand up.
Khabib can keep them down... but on the ground, it's Maia's world.

IMO the fight will end either with Khabib KO'ing Maia or Maia choking Khabib.

either way, be prepared for a ground fight (no canceling each other shit)

Comparing maia to kamal shalarous to prove your point may be one of the most ridiculous things I've ever saw

 

[Schoolboy Q]

Khabib would win easily.

 

[Human Bass]

Khabib by cardio.
