You mentioned Khabibs fight against Al where he won the belt.
Forgot to mention his dominant performance against Tibau, lol, everyone forgets that one,
I dont know how anyone can rank him higher than Aldo who also beat every stylistic match up. You are right in that all Khabibs big names on his padded record were not big wrestlers
Tibau was a jacked 195lb LW monster with EPO
Itâs a good win
And Khabib isnât? Well at least Tibau always made weight and didnt kill himself to make weight, being hospitalized once as well, Khabib has always been the bigger man and should have fought at 170 but then he would then ha d to fight wrestlers his own size. A guy like Usman would take his life
Holloway sure disagrees with you filthy racist neckbeards who are hiding being Aldo because youâre too ashamed to rep Mc13 seconds anymore
Maybe because Max beat Aldoâs ass down and sees Khabib as levels above him despite retiring young
History will judge Khabib as slightly overrated. He dipped before doing what is expected of truly great fighters. He shut it down early to preserve his record, theres no way around that fact. To add insult to injury, he blamed his mom for his early retirement. Yeah, womenâs opinions are very valued over there. Thats a good one.
Ttt
It was his fathers death that precipitated the events.
And to run over Gaethje the way he did to honor his deceased father and overcome the pressure of that fight was something that will be in a movie one day.
BTW nobody in the real world knows or cares about who the fuck Jose Aldo is. Heâs not even considered in GOAT talk among MMAâs leading pundits like Chael, Rogan, Bas either.
Itâs pretty difficult to argue that Khabibâs career was better than Jon Jonesâ run through the first DC fight. Had Jones retired then, his career still would have been better than Khabibâs.
Tainted with PEDs even if you want to make that argument
Yes. Thatâs the argument against Jones, and itâs a legit one. He used PEDs during the USADA era. I also think that his greatest rival, DC, did not use PEDs.
Khabib dipped out early to protect his record, hes the lightweight GSP.
Aldo was finished by a bum in his 8th fight and had numerous losses by the time he reached the age of Khabibâs retirement.
This. He fucked off early. No regard for the fans or his legacy hence why now he doesnât really have one
Khabib shut it down with fights waiting for him. Heâs great, but he can never be the greatest. Not even at lightweight.
Aldo cares about the fans and the sport. He battles on like a warrior for them and his legacy and now is universally loved for it
Izy has a bigger claim as GOAT now than khabib ever will and thatâs saying something
Thatâs your opinion.
Rogan, Chael, Bas Rutten, Ariel, Luke Thomas, Okamoto, Big John, and pretty much all the sports major pundits have Khabib as the top or one of the top on the GOAT list. Not to mention many top fighters, or that he won the biggest GOAT poll ever.
Izzyâs division is so weak he keeps having to fight the same guys and just lost to Jan, who was one of the worst LHW champs of all time. A striker with boring decision wins while Khabib finished all the top 10 p4p killers in his title defences.
Of course heâs the greatest at LW. Tied for the most title defences who were all in P4P top 10, and he finished all of them, plus had a perfect record and wasnât .500 like BJ.
Nobody else is even close at LW.
Khabib was the best lightweight weâve ever seen in MMA history, period.
This obsession with âlegacyâ and having fighters accumulating CTE or rack up decision wins via point fighting to grind out being âthe GOATâ doesnât matter when the aforementioned is clearly the case.
You already played that angle, it was too soon to repeat and escalate. Otherwise, not a half bad troll.
Itâs not an angle though.
Itâs their opinions, which are greater than yours or anyone else who posts here.
