The REAL reason Khabib retired...

Tired of people and their 10 followers making shit up to fit their little bias. Khabib retired because he achieved everything he wanted, and more, his dad died, he respects his parents opinions more than anything and he wanted to make ways for his team mates.

And the "he didnt make weight for justin" video is bs. Pretty funny some people still think a video from someone who wasnt even there is more relatable than people who were there, and the UFC's own weigh in protocol.

There is nothing to discuss, we all know the reasons why he retired, end of.

I just cant watch a video of a man with a hairline that bad....







....jk... Khabib retired because his dad died, he did what he set out to do, he was ready to evolve and step into his own role as father/coach to his team mates; while maintaining his near perfect record (bonus: leaving a legacy that fight fans will talk about and argue about for years)

Stop denying that he's had multiple issues making 155.

And that he cuts drastic weight.

He only had one weight miss, can't miss weight when you don't even make it to the scale. And no he doesnt cut more than guys like Poirier or chandler or even Kevin lee who is a welterweight because he can't be arsed to lose some muscle mass, there are bigger guys than him in LW, fact. Stop it with that 'khabib is too big' shit, missing weight is not so much about being too big, it means you fucked up the process.

He definitely made things interesting because he and his biggest believers can always fall back on his undefeated record.

That alone keeps him in the argument.

But it's not enough.

Guess what .. EVERYONE cuts. Deal with it.
Tony walks around at +200 as per himself. Dustin you said it yourself. Look at Conor now being a HW. this negates the ridiculous argument that Khabib is a weight bully because he was literally average among his peers.

He had no issues whatsoever cutting weight in his last FIVE fights. To persistently cite his weight cutting issues before that is straight up hating. He sucked at cutting weight until he finally got the gist of it and never looked back since, but I get it, he left you haters nothing to cling to other than these pity arguments.

Wild guess:

1) his dad died

2) he accomplished everything he wanted

3) him being champ blocked Islam from advancing

4) he had to fill in as head coach for all of his dad's athletes

No bro. He clearly SHOOK!

Scared he couldn't make the weight to bully all those SUPER tiny LWs anymore and he knew he couldn't take that 8 from Oliveira.

Who do you guys think the real reason is?

I could be completely wrong, but I discuss it here.

I will forgive you for being completely full of shit. Most people are. But for fuck sakes, clean yourself up before you present yourself to the world. You look like you spend the last 3 days crawling around the dirt on your face.

Score out of 10:

No cliffs? Cba to watch

Edit: I watched a bit and I guess I agree. The basic premise he is struggling to make weight at 155 and doesn't want to challenge himself at 170. So he can't be the overall GOAT. Which I agree.

The same argument everyone and their mother has made from even before he retired...really re-inventing the wheel here

I'm completely honest.

This is how I truly feel and think.

I'm ugly and nothing can help that lol.
 
I used to put rogaine on my face to try and grow a real beard, but it didn't work.

A beard could help hide the acne and scarring, but it wasn't meant to be!

Y'all should've seen the acne in my teenage years lol.
 
He retired because his dad died and his mom made him promise to stop fighting. That's it.
