Mike was a phenom cause he got spoon fed bums, I guess he can teach Khabib how to fight tomato cans. BTW I hope Khabib gets embarrassed, which he will.

He fought a lot of bums, but do you disagree that he had the best combination of quickness and power the boxing world has ever seen? Had he been just 6' 2"...

Probably, didn't do much good when fought an actual boxer though. You are just assuming at 6'2 he'd have the same power, a lot of his power was coiling up his shorter frame and unleashing. Plus watch a lot of his KOs from the outside, taller guys punching down leave their chin wide open. Good for keeping a guy at distance, not good when that guy can slip then uncork a bomb on you.

Probably a combined 42-18, last dude like he's a buck 85. Too bad Khabib won't be fighting a trash bag. Tyson is the most romanticized fighter in the history of combat sports.

Bisping thinks Khabib would go the distance against Floyd. IDK about that, but I think he would last longer than CMG just based on cardio, not saying he would do better than CMG. Floyd can't KO anyone.

This body shot/uppercut combo is a thing of beauty. I tried it once in a street fight in high school. Didn't quite have the same effect as Tyson's combo. Of course, I was about 6'3, 155 pounds. I landed both punches, tho and got a bunch of love from my friends. But, honestly, neither one of us were a threat to break an egg with one of our punches.

Hard to say, his striking, movement and weird angles would give guys problems for sure. But he hasn't fought anybody or really been tested. I'd like to see him fight Larkin, Daley, or Lima or even Fitch. But Bellator seems to protect him as one of their rising stars.

He is one my favorite fighters, been a fan awhile, reminds me of Anderson Silva the way he moves. He's 31 so it's time he started moving up in comp.

Now the Demetrious Johnson move makes more sense. The only guy in the entire 125 division that I want to watch is Borg, so I'm good with this.
