Khabib is a great example of why one should not do something because simply they can do it.  When you almost die making weight and have failed before, your body is telling you:  'yes, you might be able to get away with it again but you also might die'.  

I think he would have great success at 70 to if he went up.

He was 176 earlier today.

Open workouts are stupid.

Yeah they are stupid. Khabib is actually giving something people would prefer than seeing them having a light workout & hitting pads.

He would be a top5 Guy at 170 but not champ. He needs to almost kill himself to fight smaller men. 

Anyone know who is backup?

They never seem to bother with 'backups'.

FIghting in front of the biggest Muslim population available to him?

 

Having his dad corner him for a title defense?

 

Having almost his entire team on the fight card?

 

Yea, miserable is probably the exact opposite of what he is feeling this week. I don't believe the weight cut will be an issue, everything seems to be on track for him the last 2 weeks.

 

Q&A was a Boss move.

Ominous 

You guys are over thinking it. 

He's already prepared, he doesn't need to show the fans what he can do days before the fight, we already know. 

Why not take the opportunity to speak to the fans and create a an interactive atmosphere? Cowboy does it all the time. 

hes a smart guy.
