If gaethje's wrestling is as good as all these commentators claim and can stop takedown + no fans = favors geathje's

Without the fans he might be smart about this fight again and not try to just rush throw bombs for the hourrays from the crowd

Can he stop takedown
If he doesnt, can he get up?
Can his cardio last 5 rounds?

No one beats Khabib.

Gaethje has a better chance than all his previous opponents though.

crowd or not wont have any effect in the fitght and another question you can ask is how khabib will react if he get caught on the sweet spot by Gaethje's bomb

Gaethje's wrestling and take down defence are elite level lets see what he can do vs the best wrestler

On Justins instagram he's posted a few training clips where he's demonstrating the 'zone of death'
they are honing in on the rushdown tactic. since justin's space management is amazing, its going to give him the edge in open space.
if you watch all of khabib's fights, he sort of panics in open space when trades happen. that's just how he fights. like a bear, frantically striking.
if he sets up shots they look cleaner especially the KO overhand, but in the open trades he is 'sloppy' whereas justin is not.

If you believe the mystique of Justin's takedown defense and assume Whittman and himself understand to avoid the cage and the outside at all times.
If Justin can control the center of the ring he will beat khabib.

It doesn't fit the narrative for the upcoming GSP Khabib superfight though.

So we know Justin will lose by Split and write the book on how to dismantle the king.
