Media So, looks like he's in too! (GSP Vs Khabib)

Khabib makes him quit and finishes current post-usada gsp inside 3 rounds

What a hard fight to predict.

I have a very hard time picturing Khabib manhandling GSP like he has everyone else. I also have a hard time picturing GSP stuffing all Khabib's takedowns and soundly out striking him to a 50-45 UD.

One of those fights where you have two people that pretty much dominate everyone match up. Incredible match up if it happens.

The X Factor of course is GSP's age

To the Khabib fight, I think there is a great chance that GSP would use the "jab, jab, jab" strategy that he used against Jake Shields, because GSP has the reach advantage.

He would probably mix in a few well-timed blast double-leg takedowns, seeing as how Abel Trujillo was able to take Khabib down with this technique.

Entirely possible! I definitely would have favored a 30-year old GSP to do that exact strategy, but him being almost 40 is a big ? in this fight.

Usually once a fighter passes 35 (unless it's HW) - that's when you start to see a big decline in the athleticisim
 
Did any fighter actually stayed retired after he retired?
 
do it

3 divisions champ babyyyyy


Put that GOAT status out of reach!
This all day. All about the legacy baby.

I'm a guy that has argued GSP isn't the GOAT for a long while. If he won this fight I would say it couldn't be argued.
 
Makes sense he ducked anderson in the late 00s and all of the 2010's now he will duck khabib for the next decade.
Damn still Butthurt about him making your boy quit? That was over 10 years ago man let it go
 
I see GSP regretting his decision at around the mid-point of round 1. He's too old now.
 
GSP is an obsessive hard worker. I have no doubts if he were to fight Khabib he will be ready. He hasn't taken any damage except the 1 fight with Bisping in years. GSP 50-45.
