Is Khabib part of the GOAT Conversation? Let us know...

@Adamjames9125 7 месяцев назад

The CV argument kind of kills it alone but my guy put the cherry on the cake 😂

There is a disregard for skill level and technical flawlessness in your arguement. Khabib brought a level of martial arts ability (grappling) akin to what Jordan was in basketball. There are people with better resumes/careers than Jordan but none were better ballers. That is Khabib's case for goat status. He was just so much better than everyone else he had to be called the best. Sport is about the athletes not the records, but because of the latter, you may choose another athlete. It's all fair and subjective though. However, I will say, not putting Khabib in the top 10 is a very interesting take, being the greatest fighter (without a challenging fight) of the toughest division has to carry far more weight than the first half of his career- you can't call low diffing Justin, Dustin, RDA and Conor worthless.

First off thanks for your comment, it was amazing. I feel like his dominance is noted but sustained dominance (or victory) is what puts people in the upper echelon. Can you sustain that dominance against elite competitors over and extended time. He was well on his way there, just didn’t stay long enough to see what would happen.

@@makingthewalk thanks mate, these tpcs are always fun. What you say is all fair. Final comment then is, sustained dominance over whom ? The same guys he walked over are still at the top, and we can't ignore the effect of Islam on his legacy. Islam is a less flawless version of Khabib (with significantly better striking albeit) and he will be the first to say Khabib gets the better of him, along with many who have trained with them two. Watching Islam is a fair notion to seeing what Khabib would have done, and just as he told Dana himself, what more would he gain from sticking around. Don't get me wrong, I would've loved to watch him fight Charlie Olives (to get 30 and 0 which is more satisfying) cause as much as Khabib fans annoy me, CO fans are just as bad and pretend BJ Pen doesn't exist. I understand why you wouldn't put Khabib at 1 cause there are so many other options to consider and it all depends what you consider the best metric to decide the goat. Thanks for the content tho mate, looking forward to more of your takes 👍
