2 inch reach advantage, good boxing, good wrestling, excellent submissions. Khabib's got wrestling, but his stand up isn't great and while Khabib holds the record for most takedowns in a fight, that's because people get up and McGregor has excellent scrambling.
Mendes handled him wrestling..Khabib is bigger and Stronger..Plus Khabib has sick grappling, he won't just lay in the guard like Chad...Idk about conor being a Excellent scrambler..

I quoted you directly calling him a noob, but keep trying to back track.
no you didn't because I never called him a noob, and yes you are taking it out of context.

I will walk you through it ....

.... he was a noob in that ONE MOMENT where he went for a submission and let Conor escape, losing soon after.

This is so interesting... Mac has made MMA a big-money sport for the first time. Any fight he books will have at least one substitution, which means for every 1 fight, he'll get 2 fighters a huge payday. He wasn't kidding when he said they should all be thanking him at the MMA Awards show. I bet he forms a fighters' union at some point.

That's not what you said, it's not even correct.

He's good at exploding, creating distance, and moving on angles. This translates over to his ground game from what i've seen, but i doubt he's going to have the advantage over Khabib on the ground. I'm almost certain of it.

Part of me is glad Conor isn't getting that immediate shot.

No actually all of me is glad.

That'd be awesome. But I thunbk Aldo should have a full camp, and also time to recover from that knockout. That changes fighters those insta-knockouts.
yep i agree i think any fighter that faces Mcgregor needs a full camp

The way i see it is, you either get Tony Ferguson to step up and make it an interim title fight. Alvarez or Diaz can step in against Khabib. Or you say fuck it and throw the bat to Nate Diaz and let fireworks fly. Conor won't be able to make 145 on two weeks notice.
Cant be interim title RDA defended in Dec, wait this is dana and zuffa so your probably right.

He'd make less money if there was a fighters union and everyone was getting a fair share.
