I started this thread for a few reasons. One, I would just love to see the fight. Two, I'd like to see Khabib man up and fight somebody bigger than him like all the greats do. Three, I'm pitting two Conor hate groups against each other because I'm sick of all the stupidity surrounding his past accomplishments. He was fighting at 145 at the time he fought Nate and moved up TWO weight classes to fight a very dangerous fighter. I though it was crazy then and it was, but he insisted on a rematch at the same weight just to make a point and that point was made despite what you think of the decision.
Now for the fight.
I think Nate's long reach and excellent dirty boxing would present a serious problem for Khabib. So would diving into Nick's world-class guard. Could he tire out and finish Khabib with it? I say it's possible although not probable. I know the oddsmakers would favor Khabib which is why I would likely bet on Nate. I would like nothing better than for Nate to choke him unconscious because Khabib is a punk and so are his handlers. Flame on flamers!
