Nurmagomedov made his professional debut in 2008 against Vusal Bayramov, an Azerbaijani who was 0-0 at the time and eventually amassed a record of 2-5.
All the losses that Bayramov suffered during a short two-year career came inside the distance.
2-0
Next up for Khabib was a man so bad they named him twice, Magomed Magomedov. It was a fight in itself just to find a database on this Russian with no age or height even known.
Magomedov was four fights into his career when he fought Khabib. He was on a four-fight losing streak and all of those defeats came inside the distance. Magomedov finished his career with a negative record of 4-6.
3-0
Khabib’s third fight was against fellow Russian, Ramazan Kurbanismailov. Another inexperienced competitor with only one fight to his name. Nurmagomedov won by unanimous decision and his opponent is currently 5-3-2, which more closely resembles a defensive-minded formation on FIFA than a decent fighter’s record.
4-0
In his fourth bout, Nurmagomedov took a considerable step-up in competition considering his previous opponents, fighting a man who was 2-0. Shamil Abdulkerimov was defeated by Khabib via unanimous decision and only fought four more times thereafter, finishing up with a mediocre record of 4-3. His only claim to fame being that he once featured on an Emelianenko undercard. Unfortunately for Abdulkerimov it wasn’t the legendary Fedor, it was his lesser known brother, Aleksander.
5-0
His fifth fight is laughable. Nurmagomedov faced Said Akhmed, who was making his debut at the time. Akhmed lost by first round TKO and has not fought since. He ended his ‘career’ 0-1, which begs the question; was this guy even a legitimate fighter or just someone they literally dragged in off the street?
Owen Allen
6-0
The Dagestani continued to be matched up against newcomers in his sixth fight where he fought Eldar Eldarov, who was 1-0 at the time. Eldarov has earned some credibility though, winning seven straight fights since losing to Nurmagomedov, taking his record to 8-1.
7-0
The recurring theme of favourable match-ups was evident once again in Nurmagomedov’s seventh outing as he faced Shahbulat Shamhalaev, who only had two fights under his belt at the time. Khabib dispatched of his inexperienced opponent in the first round via kimura.
8-0
Nurmagomedov went 8-0 after beating another unproven opponent in Ali Bagov, who was 2-1 at the time and coming off a submission loss. One must question why a seven-fight streaking Khabib was paired against such a green opponent coming off a loss.
Bagov can best be described as a journeyman fighter, as he went on to accumulate a lacklustre record of 23-10 with an 80 per cent TKO loss rate.
9-0
Khabib extended his winning streak to nine by beating another subpar opponent in Vitaliy Ostrovskiy. The Belarussian came into the fight 3-3, with two of his victories coming against an opponent with 28 losses (20 by submission) and the other against a fighter with a 1-2 record. Top class opposition indeed. Ostrovskiy didn’t fare much better after losing to Khabib as he lost six of his next seven fights and seven of eleven overall before retiring with an 8-11 record.
10-0
Given Nurmagomedov’s record at this stage, you’d expect him to be lined up against adversaries with similar records but this was not the case. For his tenth fight, Khabib dispatched of Alexander Agafonov, a Ukrainian who had competed in half the number of fights that the ‘Eagle’ had. Agafonov retired shortly after his defeat to Nurmagomedov, with an undesirable record of 5-3 having competed for barely two years.
Camden Diaz
11-0
Khabib scored a submission victory over Said Khalilov to extend his unbeaten run to eleven in April 2011. The defeat to Nurmagomedov was the second of the five-fight losing streak that ended Khalilov’s career. He finished up with an unattractive record of 12-13, with defeats to Dennis Siver and Albert Tumenov along the way.
12-0
Astonishingly, an undefeated, eleven-fight streaking Khabib was somehow matched with a fighter 0-2 for his twelfth contest. Ashot Shahinyan was the fighter in question and he faced the multiple time sambo world champion in the middle of a five-fight losing streak. The Armenian went 0-2 in his next two contests before picking up the first win of his career. He subsequently retired with a record of 1-5.
13-0
Unlucky for some, 13, was the complete opposite for Nurmagomedov as he was gifted yet another untested opponent with just two previous fights. Khabib defeated fellow Russian Kadzhik Abadzhyan in the first round. It was the second defeat of what turned out to be a six-fight losing streak for Abadzhyan, who eventually finished with a 3-6 overall record.
14-0
Victory number 14 came against Hamiz Mamedov. The Azerbaijan native went 0-3 at the beginning of his career before putting together a decent four-fight winning streak that was eventually snapped by Nurmagomedov. Mamedov was hit and miss and retired in 2014 with a mediocre 8-4 record.
Aaron Cooper
15-0
Obviously, by this point of Khabib’s career, overseas MMA organisations would have been scouting the Dagestani with a view to signing him up. Usually, a fight against a noteworthy name is what management seeks to speed up the process but for Nurmagomedov it couldn’t have been more opposite. Bewilderingly, in his 15th professional fight Khabib fought an opponent making his debut. Yes, you read that correctly. At 0-0, Vadim Sandulitsky was the next opponent for the 14-0 Nurmagomedov and needless to say it ended in the first round. Cherry picking at its finest.
16-0
Nurmagomedov’s last fight before joining the UFC’s ranks was against Arymarcel Santos, a Brazilian with 72 fights to his name. At the relatively young age of 33, ‘Chocolate’ Santos has a crazy record of 38 wins and 34 losses and is still actively competing. Khabib was the Brazilian’s 51st fight and he was 28-22 at the time. Khabib got the stoppage and is just one of 14 KO/TKO losses for Santos.
It is hard to disagree with Tony Ferguson’s labelling of Khabib’s record as ‘padded’ when you consider the credentials of his opponents and circumstances in each of the 16 fights above. This unbeaten streak portrayed the sambo specialist as untouchable upon entry to the UFC but even during his time in the organisation there have been signs of mortality that have been ignored.
Against Pat Healy’s high tempo ultra-offensive style, similar to that of Tony Ferguson, the Dagestani struggled to hold his own when constant pressure was applied and showed signs of cardio issues. His fight with Gleison Tibau is shrouded in doubt as many, including this writer, feel the Brazilian was the clear victor.
On that night Khabib failed to land a single takedown and earned a unanimous decision but 3 writers at leading site Sherdog, 1 writer at MMAFighting and 1 contributor at MMAWeekly scored the fight three rounds to 0 in favour of Tibau.
The fact Conor lost to Khabib only proves how shit he truly is. I know 12 year olds who could heem mic
Eli Watson
Oh wow, he defeated a guy who had literally one fight at LW division, known for having zero heart, and haven't fought for two years. What a buh-beast, you proved me wrong indeed my friend.
Christian Moore
He beat the same person that did the same thing he did.
How did Khabib never fight kevin lee or tony ferguson
Hudson Moore
>How did Khabib never fight kevin lee or tony ferguson
He keeps ducking everyone who's even semi-decent. I would be surprised if he makes it to the Dustbin fight.

>"Canor just sucks thats why he lost to Khabib!!!"
Look here nigger, Conor is only good at pissing off his opponent during long ass press tours and getting them to fight on his level. When he fights anyone who is immune to his shittalk, or is fighting on short notice, he loses
Any lucky fags here got the costa/diaz/stipe parlay right?
Isaiah Stewart
Jon is so fucking goI'd at torturing his opponents. When he said Stipe is the best heavyweight of all time, he was doing it purely to shit on DC's legacy and get that convo started
Bentley Bennett
some german got every one right and won 500 dollars, don't know if it was a parlay or not
Christian Williams

Eli Thomas
He never placed the bet, he created the ticket and screenshot it.
That's a good idea by khabitches actually. Take worst moments into consideration.

played it when it was retail, can't see myself going back and spending 12 hours a day on that bullshit. I play private realms though just to mess around occasionally.
how does adesanya win this fight he is super skinne compared to costa i doubt he even cuts much weight to make 185 (maybe 10lbs?) costa weighed 233lbs on the night of the fight at 241 he hits like a fucking mad man and it's not like they'd take it to the ground either so how could adesanya win this fight when he barely scraped past gastelum
Both Costa and Romero fucking destroy Israel. He's lucky to duck both.
Eli Wright
It depends what's left of them after Whittaker is done with them. U-bender's weak chin may actually help him in the long run.
Jose Nelson
Robert will win.
Mason Howard
Don't really have to spend that much time in WoW unless you're going for a high PVP rank. PVE isn't too time consuming. You can level at your own pace, dungeons don't take more than an hour or two, many even less, and raiding is one or two nights a week to clear all relevant content.
Parker Green
>costa weighed 233lbs on the night of the fight at 241 then he's suspended by CSAC
Liam Powell
The answer is, he won't. This fight is free money, esp. if Costa isn't the favorite due to Adesanya zoomer nuthuggers.
I'll drop a cheeky hundo on it if the odds aren't absolute shit (which they should be).
Parker Thomas
Did Costa really weight almost 50 pounds over his weight-in weight the night of the fight?
Hunter Wood
Win or lose Israel has to fight Costa
Ian Russell
Roll-on is the superior choice.
Jaxson Lee
i fell asleep and missed the costa fight i have to watch it today first time watching him fight i am a casual when it comes to him. i don't remember watching him before but heard about him a few times. i think joe rogan said he looks like a model before that's the first time hearing about him but i hear he hits like a truck.
Sebastian Ross
costa sucks, worked by yoel, couldn't finish yoel, hopefully he gets suspended by usada
John Morgan
>Im going to heem you stiff and fuck you up the ass
This is how I picture anybody who plays WoW. Even if Paulo Costa said he plays WoW I would start to see him like that. I don't even understand where the visceral disgust comes from because it predates the South Park episode.
based not even rival on a private server tier cringe
Jack Torres
>15 percent aspen just got suspended for being more than 10%
Jose Gutierrez
What's the deal with Stipe's body? he doesn't look like 104kg+ at all. I (think) I have a similar build to him and I'm 2 inches shorter and 20kg lighter.
Now the floaters have settled, just how flushed is askren?
Ryder Morgan
Who's gonna be the mains for 244 and 245?
Ryder Ross
I spend every waking minute thinking of every bad moment of my life and being tortured by it, but at the end of the day i think to myself "atleast im not Bum Askren"

Unironically he wins the rematch and the re-rematch.
Jayden Torres
MSG end of the year.... Colby vs Usman Co main masvidal vs diaz
Perfect opportunity for him to stop being a prizefighter and become a neckbeard shut-in instead. It's not like he really has a choice with JUSTing of this magnitude.
>>KOs Dustin Poirier OK >>KOs Chad Mendes Very suspicious fight. Mendes literally sop fighting and puts his hands down, Conor walks over and decks im. Work? >>KOs Jose Aldo A good win, but a fluke. Promised a rematch but ducked it to keep his 13-second legacy. >>KOs Eddie Alvarez Eddie is the sloppiest fighter to ever hold a belt. >>Dec win over Nate Diaz Nate "The Gatekeeper" Diaz. 'nuff said. >and Max Holloway over-rated >spanked and humiliated by a 40-something retired elf in boxing gloves >completely dominated by vastly overrated Khabib
>Defenses: 0 0 defenses. He was a belt-holder, but never a Champion.
No legacy, only remembered for some Chael-level trash talk.
I don't get it, Costa I could understand but I just couldn't see anyway Stipe won that matchup, I was so amazed he had the cardio to finish DC in the 4th. I think if DC ditched the ego and wrestled he would've dominated and finished Stipe.
Nathaniel Gonzalez
it's a bit, he's just trolling
Dominic Phillips
Yeah it was just DC acting retarded. But that's part of the fight game.
Kevin Clark
If DC didn't lose he could have easily won. In my world he's still the champion.
Dana is protecting Israel from genuine threats because he has massive star power if he can get a belt and defend it.
Jose Thompson
I slightly disagree. DC would've had better results, but I don't believe in the "if DC just keep shooting for TD, that's money in the bank" theory. DC's an old fat dude. He's been overperforming so far, but something's gotta give. In hindsight, I think he over stretched himself when he picked up Miocic. And from that point on, he probably tried to keep it safe and just try to get the UD. Also fuck that blatant eye poke from DC. He fan his fingers out a lot.
When Drakkar Klose beat Marc Diakiese and then insulted all brits while Bisping was front row I found it hilarious. Especially seeing everyone cry about it when they said nothing when Marc was insulting him non stop before. But now I'm starting to realise he's a dick, seems like he purposely ignored that hand shake as well.
I agree in that I believe that the clinch and takedown game went away for DC after the first round. Standing was his best option, and it was only a matter of time until Stipe solved the puzzle
Did anybody else catch DC and Stipe in the same clinch scenario that KO'd Stipe in the first fight? DC threw the right hook, it landed, but Stipe stood. Truly a lucky shot in the first fight
Chad Sonnen is literally never wrong I challenge you I dare you to find one instance that he was incorrect, it is not possible because that never happened
Camden Hall
Conor's never going to fight in the UFC again. The only way he would have come back is if Nate was weak, then he would have tried to jump on Conor Nate 3. Conor is the most flushed fighter in the UFC.
Zachary Lopez
what the fuck was dc thinking during that fight? no wrestling from round 2 onward hands always fucking down trying to stand up with a guy who has 7 inches on him like a 15inch reeach it's like he was TRYING to lose me money
Tyler Ramirez
Who is this milk truck
Benjamin White
the best part of this isn't the heem, it's the little pause afterwards
Hudson Evans
You shouldn't have bet on that fight. DC was arrogant through the fight and was legitimately outboxing Stipe, so he tried to humiliate him instead of trying to win. As soon as that dumb shit started, Stipe was guaranteed to turn things around.
Oliver Lee
he was winning the stand up whats the problem
Bentley King
The American Cop.
David Baker
Nate won the second conor fite . No need to do trilogy
Yeah for like the first two rounds. But then he kept getting caught in exchanges and started to clinch less. He was looking too hard for the knockout and forgot to exercise his other skillset. In a way, I'm glad he got knocked out.
i think this is the problem with fighters like DC, Khabib, Rockhold just to mention some AKA fighters, they tend to stand up way too much instead of trying to wrestle
Camden Reyes
guy has a massive ego and didn't realize his first win was kind of fluky
Julian Campbell
won 100 bucks because of Miocic
Samuel Hernandez
So far everyone at AKA has got themselves deleted by ego fighting. Khabib is next.
khabib won't get away not following father plan any more
Anthony Ross
He's had a good run, time to fly back to cuba
Liam Brown
yoel beat that roiding dork half his age without even trying
Benjamin Parker
like nate, jake shields is also a father
Dylan Myers
Is unJUSTing your chin with a long layoff a real thing? Stipe ate lots of hard shots during that fight, many of them similar to the one that dropped him in the previous match, and appeared relatively unfazed.
Stipe can be so fast. Has jon jones ever looked this fast?
Aiden Nguyen
Is that fucking Dana on his phone from 1 to 5 seconds?

>N-NO C-CONOR IS THE GREATEST >K-KHABIB F-FIGHT WAS A F-FLUKE
Let's analyse in a neutral and unbiased way every current champion's and other notable fighter's careers at their thirteenth pro fight (specifically by highlighting theirs and the opponent's record before the fight): >Stipe Miocic (champion) (11-1) beat Fabio Maldonado (21-6) >Daniel Cormier (12-0) beat Roy Nelson (19-8) >Jon Jones (champion) (11-1) beat Ryan Bader (12-0) >Robert Whittaker (champion) (10-2) beat Colton Smith (3-1 + 4 wins in TUF so 7-1 unofficially) >Israel Adesanya (interim champion) (12-0) beat Marvin Vettori (12-3-1) >Paulo Costa (natty champion) (12-0) beat Yoel Romero (13-3) >Kamaru Usman (champion) beat Emil Weber Meek (9-2) >Colby Covington (people's champion) (11-1) beat Dong Hyun Kim (22-3-1) >Georges St Pierre (11-1) beat BJ Penn (13-4-1) >Max Holloway (champion) beat Clay Collard (13-4) >Jose Aldo (11-1) beat Jonathan Brookins (8-2) >Henry Cejudo (champ champ) (10-2) beat Wilson Reis (22-7)
and now the LW """champion""" (btw could you imagine becoming the champion in a division by beating a part-time fighter outside of the top 10?) and other fighters chosen at random >Conor McGregor (champion in his mind) (10-2) beat Dave Hill (10-2) and gets the featherweight CW belt, the first of many belts he'd soon collect >Tony Ferguson (people's champion) (10-2) beat Ramsay Nijem (3-1 but he had 3 amazing wins in TUF so he's unofficially 6-1) >Dustin Poirier (interim champion) (11-1) beat Max Holloway, who is now the greatest or second greatest featherweight of all time, in emphatic fashion >Khabib Nurmagomedov ("""champion""") (12-0) beat Kadzhik Abadzhyan (1-1) , a russian can matched up with Khabib to inflate his already padded record, who retired with a pathetic record of 3-6.
>Why don't you wrestle more if your wrestling is so much better than everyone else's? You didn't wrestle enough against Stipe or Jones, and you're not a damn boxer. Wtf are you thinking?
>You won the first fight against Stipe weighing substantially more than you did in the second fight. You were connecting more in the second fight but you didn't seem to have the strength behind the punches to knock him out cold. Was losing weight for the rematch a mistake?
Can /heem/ answer?
Evan Roberts
DC fan here
feels really bad man
Last night I had a dream I was talking to DC
I had two questions for him
>Why don't you wrestle more if your wrestling is so much better than everyone else's? You didn't wrestle enough against Stipe or Jones, and you're not a damn boxer. Wtf are you thinking?
>You won the first fight against Stipe weighing substantially more than you did in the second fight. You were connecting more in the second fight but you didn't seem to have the strength behind the punches to knock him out cold. Was losing weight for the rematch a mistake?
Can /heem/ answer?
Jonathan Bennett
For all the shit Cormier talked about how Stipe didn't hit hard, I thought it was funny how ultimately he got TKO'd from successive accurate punches. That's always been Stipe's true strength, just look at his finishes of Werdum, Overeem, and JDS. It wasn't power, just pure clinical accuracy
wrestling's gay he KO'd him because Stipe didn't see the shot coming, it wasn't even a power punch coming in light was the right choice especially seeing as he was getting tired in the 4th
Kayden Price
You had the same dream as me? That's cray Budapest Brah
Which one would fuck adesanya up more? Natty God Yoelito or Natty God Costa?
Adrian Russell
so even if you go by 186 pounds not 185 he's at 15%. i thought more than 10% is a sanction by california?
Chase Gutierrez
Chael has the correct explanation. Stipe was becoming more effective at stuffing the TD and he used a style where the opportunity to get taken down would not present itself
Jaxson Davis
Been away on a trip and just watched 241. What a spicy night holy shit, even despite the decisions all the main card fights were great (except that gay middleweight opener)
Cooper Powell
But DC didn’t even shoot for one. It just seemed weird.
Jonathan Thompson
theyd both get embarrassed because they’d be too busy trying to tongue his asshole rather than actually fight
Sebastian Wood

Matthew Parker
yoelito could do way more damage but if the fight get past the third round he gets decisioned
Nolan Foster
wrestling is also the best base for manlove
Isaac Thomas
He didn't have a losers mindset I guess
Matthew Cook
I think Israel can unironically beat Costa by tiring him out and point fighting, Costa fights like a large stupid bear. Yoel would fuck him up though because hes actually a great fighter
Cooper Anderson
I heard it was in the same building in the same spot in the octagon where DC lost twice.
Isaiah Jenkins
Would your answers change if:
>He has one more fight >It's against Jones >He brutalizes Jones
Juan Robinson
DC is my favourite person to see get melted, he looks so surprised as his legs fall out
If DC has one more fight and he fights Jones, and beats him in convincing fashion

if DC hypothetically takes one more fight, what could it be? he really seemed like he doesn’t want a third fight with stipei and he’s too old and fat to go down to lhw and jon will never go to hw
James Parker
>Natty God Yoelito or Natty God Costa why are u putting adesnaya against fighters that dont exist?
Nathan Barnes
>watching the thread get all shit and retarded in real time as north americans wake up Priceless, only thing comparable is when the 2 autistic bongs wake up
Jones at light heavyweight still makes sense, since John is running out of challengers. If Stipe retains the championship for a long time, DC Miocic 3 also makes sense.
Nathaniel Davis
yoel hasnt knocked anyone out at 185 in 3 years, 4 if dont count piss cryman ramming into his knee head on, he’s a flushed cutbabby
Kevin Edwards
I don't think DC is done. I unironically think he can make a glorious comeback.
He can beat Stipe if he uses his takedowns. He's gotta stop with the boxing bullshit and use his advantages. He especially has to cut the ego, what was up with DC walking to Stipe with his hands down? Did he forget Stipe could knock him out cold? Pudgy ass arrogant motherfucker lost because of lack of humility more than anything else.
He could come back and beat natty Jones. Again he'd have to use his takedowns and scrap this bullshit boxing he's concocted.
If he comes back and: >legitimately beats Jones to become LHW champ >beats Stipe in the trilogy
I think you could unironically put him in the GOAT conversation. But right now Stipe took him out of that convo.
Brandon Reed
Would be funny if they c u c k DC by having Stipe drop down to 205 to challenge Jon Jones and becomes a double champ!
Juan James
Extremely ironic and not a coincidence, wtf was he thinking? Bad energy for him in that place.
Joseph Lee
Fuck that, Stipe is way too big. Jones v Miocic needs to happen at heavyweight for it to be competitive.
Luke Morris
Brock returns... calls out DC and Stipe at the same time!
William Edwards
I'm not sure DC's wrestling is actually that much better than Stipe's.

Reminder that Cormier had already won the fight according to one judge, and was up 2-1 according to the other judges
Cain was heavyweight champ so Cormier went to light heavy and Jon exposed him as a bitch

DC doesn't want to kill Cain and flush his legacy further, which he would have done had they ever fought. Dumb idea and would never happen
Ayden James
you're just a caz
Matthew King
If Costa can cut 30 pounds then stipe can as well. Still not smart though
Anthony Sanchez
speak for yourselves
Mason Watson
He’s got endless cardio, good strength especially for a guy his build, and quick hands. What other athletic traits? Jumping?
Tyler Myers
It's because we've seen him get completely outclassed by aggressive wrestlers a few times

Ian Gonzalez
logical but asskren is already slated to be permaflushed by maia
Aiden Jackson
well even if he survived the round it would have been all even going into the 5th and Stipe was much fresher
Isaac Barnes
if Nate memes him into a brawl he unironically has a chance, if he chopps that leg for the first two rounds Nate is getting embarrassed
Carter Scott
dc vs Cain Penn vs Pettis Romero vs Silva GSP vs askren Diaz vs Ladd Valentina vs Ladd
Thomas Gomez
Nate by decision or submission, george is too proud to point fight him
Andrew Adams
>how diaz masdival goes
Watch Masvidal and Pettis's recent grappling match. Masvidal has strong wrestling, he can control level changes better which stops Nate being dominant. His strength also translates into his striking, I don't think he'll knock Nate out but he'll make him bleed which will risk a doctor's stoppage or blinding Nate.
However, Masvidal tries meme shit and will probably lose his balance at least once, which Nate can capitalise on. Nate will crowd him, as well, and will outperform him in the clinch. It'd be a close fight.
Jack Wright
Watch Masvidal let Diaz steal a decision doing nothing but stick his tongue out when Diaz pillowfists land before realising he's let Diaz win every round
Robert Turner

then think about the fat incel you are right now and kys
Masvidal via superior fight IQ and superior standup
Nate is a can, doesn't matter if he's strung together a few wins.
And no, he's not hyper athletic. He was always considered a gatekeeper until he got that miracle first win against Conor

Xavier Long
DC was a chinlet after all
Joseph Turner
If any fight was a work it would have been the Eddie fight tbqh. Conor never looked that good before or since the fight. Chad at least gassed out from taking the fight on late notice. That's why he kept going for guillotines and giving up favorable position. He wasn't in 5 or even 3 round shape. The Porier and Max wins were both when they were way younger and less refined. Porier was a brawler at FW now he can box people (which is what he did to Max).

They can't even build this fight up it's so one-sided
Aaron Russell
The most interesting thing about 242 is the 1/100 chance that Tony will have to replace someone. Khabib has been talking about his wrestling a lot recently, and his dad's in his corner. He's not going to box, so he'll beat Poirier handily.
Josiah Sullivan
imagine posting all these random ass places and never fighting anywhere except maybe the mall when you get beat up by the thots since you have no game
Adam Ramirez
the ufc always tries to frame him as a great dude, but dc is a scumbag narcissist. Along with the eye-pokes, and bragging about hes possibly the greatest athletes of all time, the video of him shitting on his coach for saying he needed to improve his late round output during training was hilarious.
It's not like Porier isn't a deserving contender though; he out Gaethjed Gaethje, he out Eddied Eddie, and he embarrassed Max Holloway within 1 year.
Wyatt Walker
You know what? I'd like to see that shit happen to end the T-Ferg meme because he's also a closet can, and Khabib would whoop his ass too, though not as easily as he will with the Dustbin
face it gents - khabib is GOAT. I've been on his bandwagon since 2012
Gillespee is a meme hyped up by cazzies who want to seem smarter by rooting for muh overlooked fighter. He'll never be a challenger if he continues fighting once a year.
Adam Ortiz
Khabib owns T-Ferg and ends the meme homie, there's no way around this
Jace Perry
You're queuing at the all you can eat when these lads come over and slap your ass then cut the line. What do?

>Mall You don't have malls in the favelas, so it wouldn't apply to you but basically scope out a thot, show her hog, ??????, Profit
Pettis is friends with Masvidal and loves highlight reel KOs. He said it was beautiful and he's one of those people that says "fuck" with everything because it's not a big deal to say to him. Even Bisping said the flying knee Silva hit him with was beautiful. If Ben was really concerned he should have messaged or called Pettis instead of responding to a bait tweet from Dylan Danis and trying to blow the whole thing out of proportion. He just seems like a drama queen after this. He's getting a pass for putting his teammate on blast on Twitter. Ben is such a virtue signaler.
Tony fights at the mall as part of his regular training regimen
Adrian Jones

Camden Brooks
>Poel always has to act like he was robbed whenever he was robbed too ftfy
Liam Adams
Don't call him out on Twitter like a girl, talk to him face to face or call him like a man. Ben just wanted attention for being a victim otherwise there wouldn't be any reason to tweet about it. Not to mention Dylan Danis put out this bait to cause drama and of course Ben's dumbass bites the bait. It's cringey how many people are coming to his defense for crying on Twitter instead of actually trying to get clarification from Pettis.

Poirier is elite, but Khabib is more elite. 242 will confirm.

Along with the eye-pokes, and bragging about hes possibly the greatest athletes of all time, the video of him shitting on his coach for saying he needed to improve his late round output during training was hilarious. All US blacks in combat sports are like that. Ever heard of the "Black Code"? They all cheat. Tyson was fond of elbowing, for example.
It works because no referee will stop them for fear of racism.
Liam Martin
that was the first one of two at least that fight
Chase Reyes
Would be nice, but i want Habibi to win so Tony can heem him to death with elbows.

I disagree, he’s a good old boy that likes to heem, a throwback to when the UFC was just American street kids and former wrestlers beating each other senseless.

The casualness is staggering...
As a fighter, you would NEVER do this deliberately. If you extend your finger whilst throwing your hand you risk BREAKING YOUR HAND because the bones in the finger are very fragile, this is especially true of the second example because a broken thumb is basically game over.
The first example is misjudged distance on the jab which missed, the second is just an accident which happens a lot when HANDFIGHTING.
I like both fighters, I'm not a fanboy or a cringey hater. People who think these are deliberate have never thrown a punch in their lives and know nothing about handfighting which is essential to Cormier's style due to his short reach.
The real problem is the gloves, which the UFC really need to fix to prevent eye pokes.
Dylan Diaz
DC is notorious for his eye targeting shenanigans.
