I have Khabib over Ferg right now, too. I think Ferg is better than Lee, but Lee is the stronger dude. I felt that Lee did well considering his infection and weight drop. I think Ferg v Conor is really interesting.

I'd like to see how Khabib or Ferg v Conor would play out. I *think* Conor is the better fighter, and a fight with Ferg would establish the most skilled guy in the division, imho. I think Kahbib is probably the strongest guy in the division, but then again he has trouble making weight and it's making him look like a p*ssy.

e: by strongest, I mean literally the strongest. Not the best.



I think Conor/Khabib/Ferguson are all terrible matchups for eatchother.

Ferguson is slick af with subs, but is hittable and showed he can be controlled on the ground.

Khabib is strong as a bull, will dominate you on the ground but has suspect standup that can be exploited.

Conor was getting handled by Mendes from the top, imagine what Khabib would do. Or if Ferguson can get it there, game over.

I think Conor could maybe mind fuck Khabib but he ain’t getting in Tony’s head. So many variables.

Eco Conor doesn't run into takedowns as easily. If you rewatch the Mendes fight, Conor was so aggressive he basically gave those takedowns away. If he fights how he fought Eddie then I don't think ferg takes him down. Khabib prob would tho if he didn't get KO'd trying.

Both kalabeeb and tony are super hittable and easily rocked (especially for lighter weight guys).

At 145 is the much harder challenge, Frankie Edgar and Max Holloway (much improved since their first fight which also went to decision)

that's what i've been saying. 155 is conor's easiest division. 170 and 145 are much more intriguing

I disagree with the 145lb division. Conor is just beating up midgets at that weight

Average height at 145 is 5'73, average height at 155 is 5'81, Conor is labelled as 5'9

Not a huge difference tbh. Plus holloway is like 5'11?

this, wonder which was the case:

mediator being too uneducated to know the height of current ftw interim champ

OR

meditator knowing the height of current ftw interim champ and still writing stupid post
