Media Tony Ferguson says he and Khabib can go up to heavyweight and win... is it true?

[Sherdog Oliver]

A 225 lb khabib would be scary. Theres a lot of high level olympic wrestlers his height that weigh that much. Kyle snyder is the same height as khabib he won the olympics in wrestling. With all that said any high level hw destroys swole khabib.

Wrestling. No strikes

 

[5crew]

If you believe the Conor making 80m for the last fight, you should believe Fergson and Khabib can fight in HW.

Because we need to standardise here. Either you believe the fighters words or you don't.

I personally don't.

 

[Sherdog Oliver]

Both would lose to Tim Boetsch and Houston Alexander

 

[Broccoli Cake]

I don't know about heavyweight lol, but I'd say both Tony and Khabib have a shot at beating Usman

Riza Kayaalp - at the moment the best HW Wrestler in the World. 5'11 / 285 lbs. This Guy is natural wide - dont think Khabib or Tony would look the same.

By the Way just saw some Videos of him practicing his Striking. Would be so great to have him fighting MMA.

ahh cant wait for the next Olympia.

 

[I'm Not A Nugget]

See Stipe vs Fabio

There's weight classes for a reason

Minus Minowa

He's the only exception

 

[elwani]

This is what would happen if a Sherdogger ever met Luke.

 

[Portland8242]

Stipe would KO both Tony and Khabib motionless back to back in under 20 seconds.

Ngannou might just be heading to jail after the ordeal is done.

Lol yeah khabib would have severe health problems at 285

 

[Reb]

If Ronda can beat Cain, imagine what Tony can do to the heavyweights.

 

[Willek]

Khabib vs Olenik is the fight to make.

 

[ClosetVitorFan]

He can probably beat deontay wilder or tyson fury in a heavyweight MMA fight because they know nothing about grappling. But yeah theyd get destroyed. Khabib is afraid of WW for crying out loud. This is silly, but Tony is a strange dude.

 

[ClosetVitorFan]

Lol yeah khabib would have severe health problems at 285

But he would be happy, he would be able to eat all the tiramisu cake he wants.

 

[Eat crow]

Heavyweights fucking suck

He's right

 

[wanted226]

Here's Tony next to Werdum. Looks small

LOL @ thread

 

[wanted226]

if that were true he would do it since heavyweight is so shallow and they get paid so much more

lol wut. fair point though!

 

[wanted226]

But he would be happy, he would be able to eat all the tiramisu cake he wants.

tiramisu becomes bland/insipid after a couple goodly bitez though, so no great shake on dat!

 

[wanted226]

Khabib vs Olenik is the fight to make.

Oleinik is in too good a shape for actual HW let alone a comin" up Khab"

 

[GBcrazy]

Lol they'd get totally annihilated at MW. Tony got put on queer street by lando, any UFC HW would laugh at him and then just end his life. Pure cringe when lower weight fighters say this sort of stuff.

Rumble was subbed by Koscheck at WW

Then went on to kill everyone in LHW

Now he is going HW

 

[freakroor]

khabib vs brock, book it.
