nate is better than anyone khabib has ever fought. not even close really. he was conors hardest matchup outside of khabib too.
Conor - Max Holloway
Dustin Poirier (wasn't better when Conor beat him, but has evolved into a better LW than Nate IMO)
Chad Mendes - Leaps and bounds ahead of Nate
Jose Aldo - just lol
Khabib - Dustin Poirer (beat the best version as well)
Conor McGregor - questionable but huge name value
RDA - Hadn't peaked yet but still a very solid win. Better than Nate at this point in career.
All better wins than Nate IMO.
Other than Conor at 170 Nate's biggest victory is Michael Johnson? Anthony Pettis at 170? Durable as hell and scrappy as they come, but he's hardly a complete fighter.
