I originally made a thread a while back saying the only 2 tough stylistic matchups for Khabib were Gaethje & Oliviera. Clearly I was wrong about Gaethje, but what about Charles?
How would his striking and elite bjj matchup vs Khabib's well rounded grappling, pace, and top pressure?

I honestly have no idea. Would maybe sliiigghhttly favor Khabib.
 
I'd favour Khabib against any LW but it'd definitely be an interesting matchup.

He wouldn't be able to take Khabib down and Khabib's top control is so strong it's going to be very difficult to sweep him or get offensive when your legs are locked up.
 
if it turned out to be so clear you were wrong ...

imma say you wrong again <Lmaoo>
 
So you're logic is that if you get something wrong that everything else you ever say/do will also be wrong?
{<huh}

no that's your simple jack mind talking


goof troop gonna apply his logic to everything now <Lmaoo>
 
I think Khabib wins but Oliveira and his slick jiu jitsu could pull a sun from anywhere. I don't think anyone would be surprised if that happened.

I think it’s an interesting fight. It’s not like others haven’t slapped submission attempts on Khabib. I’d like to see how a high caliber BJJ artist would do against that much top pressure.
 
I'd say it is likely the fight that people thought they were gonna get between Ferguson vs Khabib. Khabib being the favorite with Charles having a good chance
 
I see Khabib winning a lopsided decision. Lighting Olivera up on the feet while probably eating a few of Charles' lengthy strikes, putting him down, cautiously controlling and landing GnP for 5 rounds.
 
Felder finished Oliveira with elbows. Khabib would violate him.
