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.

nate slapped around michael johnson then he went on to ko dustin in his very next fight. nate would slap around chad and aldo too, but that isnt exactly worth bragging about right now.

Obviously Nate would beat most if not all 145 pound fighters, his size advantage would be ridiculous. That's why weight classes exist. And Nate took a decision off MJ 2-1, Khabib stopped him. Just sayin'

how has khabib faced harder competition? first off nate is the best fighter either of them fought hands down, so conor wins there.

porier? conor ko'd him stiff.

iaquinta? barbaosa? horcher?

i think max holloway, eddie alvarez , and chad mendez is a way more impressive list. conor has easily fought 4 men tougher than anyone khabib has fought.
plus conor takes fights on short notice, khabib pulls out of fights with a years notice.


lol wut?

nate isnt even known to be an amazing fighter. hes good, sure. and when conor fought him it was the worst version of him as well. literally vacationing

so a lightweight beating a featherweight is meaningless? shit i guess khabib only has 1 win in 4 years then. since 4 of his last 5 opponents were featherweights.

conor was supposed to fight rda but he got injured. he would kill barboza, that's just dumb to say. max and aldo were champs so to diminish them is silly. didnt khabib just fight a former 145er?... starting to sound a lil hypocritical.

True nate > conor
