Khabib Nurmagomedov is best in sambo. Sambo = judo + some types of wrestling + some stand up techniques.
Khabib Nurmagomedov mostly takedown from clinch (a lot of throw, hip throws and many others techniques etc.) Many wrestler try to catch legs when the on the distance (like Mendes/Cain). Most fighters train TDD with wrestlers and this is not work when they fight against Khabib (because he has different styles). Barboza can defend takedown from wrestler, but not from men who train sambo.
So my advice for Holloway. Avoid clinch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He must have in this fight excellent work on his legs, and break clinch very fast.
Remember Ronda vs Holm???? Ronda has great judo skills (sambo has many elements similair), so Holly avoid clinch and boxing from the distance and she also break clinch very fast. She shows great working on her legs and keep her on the distance. Do the same Holloway!
