thats cool...I like this guy
Coach Zahabi thinks
-don't think it'll be one-sided or a career ender cuz Max is a tough kid, but Khabib wins
-fight will be a fight, no chess-match, a fight
-gives Max cardio and speed edge, Khabib haven't seen 5rounds
-Khabib has better wrestling / grappling (duh), dominates in the clinch and top
-more concerned about Khabib's weight than Max
-Khabib will takedown every round, finish with GnP
-GSP could maybe make 155 once in his career, not consistently fight at that weight
-Max could win with striking, gotta hurt Khabib first, not wrestle, only grapple finish after he hurt him first
-Max should mix it up, elbows and all of that
-Max has more heart because he showed many times, Khabib always dominates opponents
-Max is confident grappler
-stop comparing Max of when he fought Conor, that's old old Max, now a new Max, would like to see rematch cuz Max does what Nate does and more
-first time Max will be ever physically broken
-Max and Tony's body type is similar but striking and grappling is different
-even hard for Ortega to submit Khabib
-it was 3rd time this fight fell off, just found out it was the 4th time!
-if he was Max's trainer, wants Max to turn up the pace for where Khabib has to work harder for a takedown, don't just give it to him, more scramble, the better
-stop cussing motherfuckers! (to his youtube participants)
-if Khabib could walk through Max's shots, probably a easy fight
-key points to look for is, Can Max, make Khabib back up?
-Max has good counter, right left hook, uppercut, Max kicks a lot too
I'm 20min in, this shits going too fast. tune in to the video if you want more...

Thanks for the breakdown
In the car and can't watch
I agree with everything he said
I do think max is the far better and way more diverse striker and can win this fight if he can keep it there
Max throws a lot of shots from wierd angles and I can definitely see khabib getting caught with a shot he doesn't see coming and fuck his night up
Obviously the 3.5-1 odds are correct and max should probably even pay a bit more at around 4.5-1 imo, but I'm still making a small play on max at the +350
I do agree with the -500 odds on khabib
