The time that Khabib spends in the stand-up to set up his takedowns

Khabib's chin has never been tested so we don't know but it most likely can withstand any of Conor's most powerful shots.

He hasn't been hit often but it's been tested. Johnson clipped him, Barboza hit him with a sick wheel kick and Khabib just kept moving on like nothing happend. Was it 100% flush? Not entirely, but it would've floored lesser fighters(looking at you Kevin Lee).
 
Not super worried about it either way. Conor doesn't tend to just KO people stiff, Khabib takes some licks sometimes when he's trying to get his prey, Conor hits folks pretty hard and has some slick striking.
Conor needs to be somewhere in a gym RIGHT NOW, learning how to get the heck up against the cage. No dinner, no playing with your kids, no more instagram :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:ry. Get to the gym and learn what no one else in 26 fights has been able to learn. Hopefully that is why he's been quiet lately.

That's what I've been thinking, if Khabib eats Conor's best punch clean and isn't even stunned, Conor is fucked.

People are acting like he's got an Overeem chin, and if Conor touches him, he dies.

Kevin Lee ate a much more solid kick and didn't get dropped

Khabib got hit with the soft calf
