You must be trolling but you called 2 former champs gatekeepers, and 3 perennial top 10 fighters cans basically. Tony has an impressive resume and it is certainly worthy of a title shot. I would love to see Khabib defend against him and my dream would then be a defense vs GSP at the Bell Center in Montreal.Lets look at tony’s resume:
Rda- gatekeeper, tony showed decent cardio but he eyepoked him, decent win
Cowboy- 1-1 rounds going into the third until tony punched him after the bell, cowboy is washed up, unimpressive win
Pettis- almost finished, pettis got injured and is washed up, unimpressive
Barboza- illegal upkick, gatekeeper, alright win i guess
FKL- almost finished in the first round, staph infection, top 15-10 guy at best
Lando- HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA almost killed
I just don’t see how he beats khabib, khabib while not being very good is better than tony everywhere. Tony’s resume is the most overrated resume ever, lets STOP THE HYPE
Opinions?
Strong argument nonetheless.You're a twit. Just my opinion though.
This. Until the cage door closes no Khabib fight is a guarantee.Do you honestly have energy for this? The fight's in fucking April, at best. And it has fallen through 4 times already. I refuse to give this match up any willpower or thought till the fight week.
This is Sherdog. We've been turning champs into cans for twenty years.You can do this shit with literally anyone. I’m a boxing fan and I’ve seen guys do it with Ali, which is literally insane, if you know anything about Ali and his career. As a demonstration, let’s do khabib.
tibau - he actually lost that fight. Even if you think he won, it was VERY close and Tibau is a scrub.
RDA - aging gatekeeper
Barboza - no wrestling background. Perfect matchup for khabib
AL Iaquinta - lol. Big win over a real estate agent. Grats Beeb!
Poirier - overrated gatekeeper with no wrestling
Conor - most overrated fighter of all time with no wrestling or grappling background. A perfect matchup for khabib.
As I’ve demonstrated, khabib has never really been challenged, has never beaten a top wrestler, has never even challenged a strong wrestler and that’s because he knows he can’t beat a strong wrestler...like Tony.
See how easy that was? Anyone else you’d like me to do?
...khabib while not being very good ...
Khabib has pulled out of more fights than Tony during his UFC tenure.Khabib won't beat Tony because Tony will duck out of the contest.
This time it will come! Too much at steak because Khabib has not had issues for the last 6 or 5 fights, the money is waaaaay more then Horscher days lol. Now its literally millions involved and thats not even counting PPVs and endorsements/deals and popularity boost. This pre fight will be all over CNN and probably attended by all sorts of stars.Never in UFC history have we seen two divisional rivals be on streaks like this and at the top of their games. I'm not holding my breath until the cage door closes though.
