greatest KO since masvidal-askren.
|
Pretty cool KO, and entertaining card.
We spinning bois now.
|
The whole card was lights out, that is going to be a hard one too top.
I give that KO over mavisdal just because the guy caught his other foot and then straight ninja shit. Not to mention the way that dude fell back was crazy as well. And then the main event had a spinning heel kick which was also sick. Man just such a great card.

UFC 254 weigh-in starts in 50 minutes. Who you guys got? Can Gaethje overcome the Khabib puzzle?
My picks:
Khabib
Cannonier
Harris
Hawes
Murphy
Ankalaev (though any fight involving Cutelaba is exciting)
Tuivasa
Oliveira
Jung (do or die fight for Alvey - I'm surprised he's still in the UFC)
Wood
Maverick
Alvarez
|
One of Cutelaba cornerman just tested positive for COVID. As of now, the fight is still on but there's a possibility that Ion get replaced by Isi Fitikefu. But given Cutelaba has already had the virus, a series of negative test might save him from removal from the card. That would be the 3rd time that the fight is off.
Fk.
|
That would suck, that is a fight I really want to see.
I got Khabib (but sure hope for Gaethji)
Whittiker
Volkov
Ankalaev

That is a fight I really want to see! If he runs through edwards I don't know who stops him.

Man I thought KN would do one more fight after this before retiring.
Emotional moment for him, after losing his father this year. Can't blame him for hanging it up

Same. Never expected him to retire at that moment. He truly deserve to be on the top of the list as the GOAT right now. It's even crazier that he fought Gaethje with a broken foot & mumps.
It’s sad to see such a special talent retire that young knowing how much more he has to give but under the circumstance it is totally understandable. There's more in life than sports and family always come first.
I feel like MMA lost something special today. That sucks… Congrats on your career Khabib.
|
Khabib is the no doubt GOAT mixed martial artist. Basically no one has even challenged him. He beat Gaethje on the feet before he effortlessly dominated him on the ground. Which is crazy ridiculous. I think Gaethje has a amazing chance of beating the Porier Mcgreggor fight. And 0 chance of ever beating Khabib,
|
Khabib always talked about retiring quite young, and I'm not that surprised he retired today.
Add what happened to his father to the mix and here you go. Only fight that would make him fight one more time is GSP I guess.
|
I've never seen a fighter who never looked in danger of losing a single fight before.
JJ can talk about his title fight record but the times he nearly lost work against him in comparison to Khabib. What an absolute legend, and the GOAT in my opinion.
|
He lost one single round in his entire career.
I don't know if I'd pick him as the GOAT, it's a toss up with GSP, both have established such a legacy, but of those two, GSP looks like a human being while Khabib was a cut above.
|
I think he has to be the GOAT with gsp second. No one even challenged him, he was never in trouble, never had a close fight. Pure domination. I would love to see that fight though, GSP past his prime but bigger, that is the dream fight.
|
I don't know for me it could swing either way, Khabib dominated his entire career, but GSP had more fights at the highest level. And he fought guys on juice too, and avenged his losses. That and the fact I really wanted to see more Khabib, especially after his last fight. To think he probably hasn't even peaked yet.
|
Khabib was more dominant in the cage but GSP carried the sport for years and it lead to him retiring early
