    That went well. Khabib with a broken foot controlled the centre of the ring and walked him down. First takedown nearly has a submission, second takedown and submits him straight away. Easy nights work.

    Never easy.

    All the hard work is done in the gym; being prepared and having a plan A to Z with counter strategies that have to be implemented along the way.

    Yeah great performance from Khabib. I think Gaethje had his moments but Khabib proved to be the better man.

    If Khabib didn't fought aggressively, he would have lost the fight due to taking too many leg kicks. This fight reminded me of Adesanya vs Costa in the sense that if Khabib took his time like Costa, his legs would have been ****ed by the time he's ready to fight and it'd be too late.

    Khabib had a great gameplan and he executed it to near perfection. Farewell to an ATG.

    You definitely need tremendous wrestling skills to stand a chance against Khabib.

    Khabib is far better than Costa and has a better jab too, Costa is not world class and Izzy is far better than Justin also.

    Forget all the talk of GOAT, that's for another time, we need everything to settle, there will be all sorts of arguments made for others, that's a debate for later.

    Last night was amazing, the performance was incredible considering everything he has been through, then we find out Dana White was told he had a two broken toes and a broken bone in his foot 3 weeks ago..

    GTFO, what sort of monster is Khabib? :lol:

    Broken Bones
    Mumps
    Horrid weightcut

    And still!

    I picked a Gaethje decision, and was wrong. He did okay, but honestly I expected him to do far better on the ground than any recent Khabib opponent and he didn't stand a chance as it turned out once they hit the canvas!

    Any of you had the misfortune of contracting mumps as an adult? It's way worse. My missus literally went deaf in one ear after a dose of the mumps aged 26
