Khabibs Pro Record is a LIE

Khabibs first 6 oponents were in matches that were 2 rounds, in order for them to be considered a professional fight they must be 3(or more) rounds at 5 minutes. Khabibs REAL professional record is 22-0 which is still pretty damn good but NO MATTER WHAT YOU THINK OR SAY, a 2 round mixed martial arts match is considered an "amateur bout", if they got payed and it was 2 rounds it's still considered an "exhibition bout"

There are rules to these things. The fact the UFC or any Athletic commission could recognize these fights as "professional fights" and not "amateur" or "exhibition bouts" is completely baffling, we are giving this guy more credit than he deserves.

 

needless to say, If I had an extra million in the bank I would make sure to fight to get those non professional fights off his professional record.

 

As fans you can even go access pdfs and athletic commissions examples or definitions of a professional mixed martial arts fight, Khabibs first 6 fights can be compared to the ultimate fighter where they fight 2 round exhibition bouts.

So his pro record is a lie because his first fights were only 2 rounds? fine.. getting more credit than he deserves?

 

12-0 in the UFC, including the mauling of Conor. If he beats Tony, he still WONT get the credit he deserves. Khabib haters will start saying he needs to fight Justin, or Conor fans will say he's scared to get sparked by Conor in a rematch, or some other fighter can beat him, etc etc.

 

28-0, 12-0 in the UFC, UFC Champion

 

Even if he loses to Tony, it was a hell of a run, and he deserves to be called one of the best ever.

Also fought Nogueira at his prime and Cro Crop slightly over his prime, but still a beast...

this has been your daily reminder that fedor fought zuluzinho and hong man choi while khabib beat rda like he owed him money

Khabib's record isn't any worse than Fedor's was at that point of his career, is my point. They both have some bums on there.

Zulu wasn't a beast lol. He crushed a couple of cans and then got murdered a bunch of times. BUTTERBEAN submitted him for God's sake.

Hong Man Choi wasn't a 'world kickboxing champion', let alone multiple times. He won a regional qualifier to the real Grand Prix by beating up a bunch of sumo wrestlers iirc.

Off top or my head... Fedor's best opponents:

Randleman

Nog

Cro Cop

Arlovski

 

Without googling records, pretty sure both Khabib and Tony have been in much more competitive fights. Evolution to the game. Different level then it was in the 90's. PRIDE was very... iffy... at times. Cro Cop head kicking a dude in a mysterio mask and freak show fights... let's not forget the let em juice to the gills WWF rules mentality. Fight fixing and padding records wasn't above that org (or UFC... see Silva vs Griffin, Jones vs Sonnen)

 

Still, Fedor probably GOAT @ HW. Nobody else really went streaking vs top comp.
