Maia vs Khabib jiu jitsu match no gi

Maia, duh.

Though saying that he's getting too old.
 
habib says no ones every tapped him in training or in fighting
 
Khabib is my bet just cause of the extra wrestling oh and age.

Don't think Maia can get a favorable position or will have enough to sub such a high level grapppler like Khabib from a bad spot.
 
Maia.



In before Franc Mitello says dumb shit.

People saying Maia obviously never saw Schaub shutting down Cyborg Abreu's BJJ game.

Khabib will shut Maia down 2x as hard and he wouldn't even need to run, he'll simply out-position Maia
 
Either way, there is not gonna be a sub.
 
I think he might be able to stall out Maia and get a cheap win off a TD or something.

It might depend on the exact rule set.

In a fight to the death with only grappling, I would have to favor Maia though. :eek:
 
Maia by submission. Kabob hasn't faced the caliber of opponents nor competed at Damiens level.

not competed at damien's level?

he's a sambo world champion and a ufc world champion LOL
 
In BJJ Maia for sure.

Now put them in a wrestling or judo match and Khabib takes it all day.
 
This Khabib hype is getting out of control
 
This cant be remotely serious. One of the greatest BJJ world champions ever against a sambo guy who is way smaller than him in BJJ??? Hard call lol.
 
Khabib was a combat sambo champion, not a sports sambo champion. His grappling works best when he is allowed to trap hands and strike while grappling. He'd be at a severe disadvantage in a pure grappling scenario.
