Michael Johnson Will Knock Out Khabib

The ScorpioN said:
Johnson hasn't even been in the same zip code as a wrestler of Khabib's caliber, he doesn't know what's coming. Khabib gonna break the Trujillo takedown record.

RDA counts, that one win is more impressive than Johnson's career record combined.

MJ is a NJCAA wresler. One of the best in the country. That surpasses Khabibs record.

I got Johnson in this one too. Khabib is good but he's not as great as people think. Let's keep pretending the Tibau fight never happened.

30-27 Tibau. How can you land more strikes and more takedowns, but not win the fight?. Robbery, they were just trying to keep Khabibs record in tact. he is 22-1 .

Yeah, Khabib is a bit overrated right now. Dare I say some of his reputation is hype?

23 - 0

All hes got to do is get his mitts on the guy and he will realize what a mistake it was taking this fight.

Oh Khabib is very good all right, and definitely champ material. But people act as if he has no weaknesses and is unbeatable. He is beatable. Tibau did it. I think the guy needs another top win to get a title shot and Johnson is good enough to qualify imo.
 
Can JOhnson defend those takedowns???

i dont agree tibau won,but i am OK with him fighting someone else to get the shot,i just feel he is ducked by quite a few guys,and yes he is beatable,his defense is spotty,but i believe in the guy,once he gets going,its going to be tough to get anything on him,with his demoralizing pressure.

The fight FOUR YEARS AGO? The guy Khabib fought when he was 24?. Stop rehashing the scared Mcgregor fan excuses they were coming up with to rationalize why this man isn't so damn good.

Fair point about the duckery.
 
Tibau fight means nothing,its unlikely they will fight again,and there isnt anyone at 155 who is that big,which is the only reason khabib had any trouble with him anyway. Find something else.
 
I wouldn't be surprised. Khabib fought one good wrestler (who has shit striking too) and that wasn't an easy fight for him to say the least. Now he's going up against a very good wrestler who is also one of the best strikers in the division. My money is on Johnson.
 
Is this where I can hop on the MJ bandwagon cause I don't like khabib?
COUNT ME IN

Khabib has terrible striking. The gap in striking is equivalent if not greater than the gap in grappling between the two. All Johnson has to do is land a good shot and Khabib will fall, guaranteed.
 
God willing! So tired of hearing about how good Khabib is. Yay, he can get the take down and stall the whole fight. About as entertaining as a wet fart in an enclosed area. Clinching is broken up in most professional combat sports for a reason: Stalling.

I called Michael one of the men who can beat Khabib before, and I stick with that prediction. MJ by KO!

he uses his striking very well. He unloads when his oppoents drop their hands cos they are afraid of his takedowns. he's usually pretty pensive until he gets the hands down like he wants em. yes it seems like he is hittable but most guys dont get to land that on him,and perhaps overaggression will get them put on the mat.
 
Tibau was robbed against Khabib. Anybody with eyes saw this. Khabib is still riding high on a win over RDA 2 and a half years ago. Wow.
 
You underestimate Khabib's footwork and ability to close the distance. He's gonna ragdoll that ass.
