Except Khabib's wrestling is overrated, its his top game that's crazy good, the way he controls people on the ground. But his wrestling and getting the fight to the ground is good by MMA standards, its not great, and it can be neutralized by fighters with high level of wrestling.
Kevin Lee is a fast, explosive athlete with a high wrestling pedigree, something Khabib has yet to face, Kevin Lee has the tools to keep the fight standing, and from a fans perspective is the most compelling match up for 2 reasons.
1.How does Khabib react when he loses his main weapon??
2.If Khabib can get Lee down and control him then its safe to say nobody as of right now can stop his TD's. And it moves from "good" to "great"
