The Dustin rematch Max was still flabby and didn't put on weight properly because he was still FW champ and going back down. Dustin was able to bully him physically in a way he couldn't this time.

Max with time to properly gain muscle and weight

DOMINATED Gaethje who was Khabib's last fight. Max was gonna win 50-44 or 50-43 before one of the most iconic KOs in MMA history.

Then he 49-46d Dustin arguably 50-45 shutout on a guy who just gave Islam a tough fight his last outing. Dropped and had him hurt badly 2 times.

Khabib's elite wins

Conor
Dustin
Justin

Max after a proper bulk straight up DOMINATED two of them. Just further shows how shallow Khabib's resume is and why he should not be anywhere near GOAT convos. Just left too much on the table with his legacy and resume. Max will be above Khabib on any respectable GOAT list.
 
You mean Max beat Dustin and Justin who were already battleworn and weren't as old when Khabib did beat them?

While what you said is factually true, let's remember that the Gatheje and Dustin that Max recently fought were 4 to 5 years after they fought Khabib, and those two had a lot of miles since then
 
Loopy just sits around all day trying to find creative ways to discredit fighters and their accomplishments, and it always ends up the same way: "Everyone fucking sucks.".

Don't worry, he'll find a way to denigrate the guys he's using to shit on the fighter in the OP at a later date.

There is absolutely no doubt, that Holloway is very very legit contender at LHW. More legit than Pimblett, and on the same scale as Tsarukyan who should be #1 in the ideal world anyway.

The cracked chin is a problem that will eventually get him there.
Before the chin cracked, I'd honestly would've enjoyed seeing his fight vs Khabib
 
Finna axe you a question dawg
You think any version of Khabib would lose to Dustin like Jerome did?
 
Khabib beat them like 4 and 5 years ago. A lot has happened since then. Hell I'd go even as far as to say Max was a better version of himself 5 or 6 years ago too and would've lost to Khabib.

Now use that same logic with Ilia people love to act like he beat Volk, Max and Charles in their primes. 😂
 
The version of Dustin that Khabib beat was the one that beat Max a few months earlier. Justin/Khabib and Justin/Max were almost 4 years apart too.
 
Max was able to beat in less decisive manner Khabib's aged leftovers, so what.

Come back when Khabib loses to Conor.
 
Peak Max would murder Khabib! <BC1>
 
Khabib fought some strikers as a wrestler then retired. Rly overrsted.
 
Max is an all time great in his own right. Why does it diminish that he beat their asses too? Everyone knows Khabib's resume is on the thin side. They're on the back end of their careers anyway, though Max would have beat them regardless. He's a top 3 fighter in a neighboring weight class.
 
I love Max, but Khabib beat the younger and better version of them.
