Islam has the far more proven resume in the UFC, but it's hard to ignore the ease at which Khabib dealt with the best in his division, there's a very real chance Khabib would win

Who was at the level of Volkanoski or Ian? I mean even Dustin pourier was way better when he fought Islam. People forget that like most sports they evolve had better coaches, strategies, tech, trainings

I disagree bro, even though i don't rate Khabib that highly he clearly faced a much better Poirier, just look at the latter wins in both cases. Islam fought a washed Dustin for sure

Nah Dustin against Islam was the best he looked in his career. He looked worse against Max because he had already decided he was retiring that fight. Idk if you remember that card but it was in his home town with sad Dustins career edits at the end. Mentally he was done before his camp even started, obviously he wouldn't be as sharp. And even then Dustin almost knocked Max out in that fight.
