Would OAM have done better than Al that night?

The Eagle

Let's not forget Olivier KO'd Dunham the same night Khabib UD'd Al.
 
Olivier would be our current LW champion if he had fought Khabib and Conor would already be throwing stuff at Olivier out in public to build up the biggest fight in UFC history.
 
I'm a big fan of the Canadian Gangsta, but in all honestly, probably not. Would've been a similar result.
 
Tough to say, but, in retrospect, I think so. And I'll admit that I considered Al one of the bigger threats to Khabib and never would've given the shot to OAM over him.

I don't want to start blowing smoke now that he got a KO. I know what OAM is; he's a grappler and a rnc specialist, which may (should) play into Khabib''s strengths. But OAM just seems like the sharper fighter at the moment, compared to Al. He's active, athletic, and always improving.
 
I doubt it. OAM just became ranked. Let’s not get crazy. And conjecture is really pointless. He had a great win. Got a bonus. Is probably fighting on the Cowtown card. Let it do what it do.
