Khabib's best asset isn't technique its strength

[AlanGregson]

Everyone always mentions his technique which is no doubt next level but his style of grappling would not work if he wasn't so strong, probably why he refuses to move up to 170 since he would have no strength advantage there.

 

[ThoskaBrah]

you are very wrong. Dustin said in post fight press conference that the issue wasn't Khabib's physical strength but rather his elite technique in grappling transitions as well as his ability to keep his balance in every ground situation.

we have also heard that he feels like a light heavyweight from his teammates, you don't feel like a LHW if you're not unnaturally strong, he would have a really tough time beating the wrestlers at 170, that's why he kills his body to make 155.

You have no proof that he'd have a tough time at 170. Maybe he would, maybe he wouldn't but you cannot state it as a matter of fact.

Also, he's not killing his body to make 155. The numbers for yesterday are in and he didn't cut a crazy amount.

Thats just the ability to use leverage and body weight

Have you ever grappled with khabib? Thought not

If he feels like lhw then he must be stronger than welterweights, right?

you don't know shit about wrestling if you don't think Khabib's technique is his best asset

 

[kl00p]

lol shut up

 

[Janiger]

These things go hand and hand. His intelligence to combine them is his best asset.

I don’t know shit about wrestling, what’s wrong with his technique?

 

[Janiger]

lol shut up

I don’t like that word.

Yeah what are the numbers? Why would you say something like that and not post the results? Sherdogger 101.

 

[BonesWinckleJones]

its known that he is abusing weight cut - next thread please

 

[executionermma]

irrelevant discussion, he's a lightweight and will continue to be

I didn't say something is wrong with his wrestling. TS probably thinks wrestling = takedowns

 

[Karelinator]

Conor honestly seemed way stronger than him in first round.

Staying out of big trouble, keeping good posture to land illegal strikes, just with lots of pushing and clinching.

 

[spinitch]

Grabbed Dustin face a couple of times.

dude had a seizure when he was cutting for mcgregor....

He cut 8kgs. I figured not everyone would be a sad, lazy fuck that couldn't look it up.

Lmao, I'm pretty sure he would get easily murdered by Woodley and Usman.

That was a mistranslation actually. He didn't have a seizure, he reached the weight effortlessly and than he absolutely dominated the lesser man.

Always expect weight cut stories about Khabib but don't put any stock into them because it's just media outlets looking to generate clicks instead of spreading actual information.
