    That`s because he was fighting in a weak era.

    Are you mental ?
    They fought in the exact same era......yet Tony beat everyone.....other than Khabib..
    Are you being a complete idiot?

    Tony`s era was a couple of years before Khabib`s prime, in the past 5 years MMA has just kept improving more and more, Tony got left behind and began to age.

    That still has nothing to do with someone's chin or engine which is what the thread is about.
    Tony aged because he had been in a load of wars and was getting older.

    Tony aged because he got hit so much.

    They both are my favorites it's very hard to make a decision between these two of them. But I think Tony had the best as compared to Nate there’s a slight difference according to me. But let's see what others say.

    No Mark your reasoning in this entire thread shows how completely clueless and illogical you are.
    Firstly you went on about different era's when the thread was about Tony and Nate.....where Nate started before Tony and Tony fought all the best. You then claim the sports moved on and Tony got left behind which again is false. Tony just got older and maybe made a couple of mistakes late on in taking fights he didn't need to take like Gaethje and then cutting weight twice for the fight due to delays.
    So no Mark you need to leave this subject alone as at every single turn you've been clueless.
    Look there are era's in skill but you're talking about all involved being in the same era so your reasoning is ******ed. This isn't Franklin v Silva. As for Khabib he wasn't an evolution he was an anomaly who fought the majority of his fights in local events therefore outside of the UFC it's just his style was and is very difficult to beat.

    Khabib was far harder to hit than Fergie.

    Tony`s opponents weren`t better than Khabib`s.

    Mark you seem to be confused..I never said Tony's opponent's were better than Khabib's.
    The point I was making that flew over your head was the fact Khabib only fought for the UFC 5 times against Tony's 26.
