Your telling me that would work for Khabib at 170 against Colby or Usman

Personally think Khabib would smash Usman at 155 or 170. Usman is very strong for 170, stronger than Khabib would be, but his technique is better. Usman would be a tougher challenge for Khabib, I’ll give you that, but to insinuate Khabib is overrated and a pussy for not fighting at 170 is absolutely absurd...

I'm not saying Khabib isn't great by any means. He is great with the smaller guys in 155 for sure. I can't say he's close to the GOAT status. Thank Usman would handle him easily

What's your not in fighting shape weight?

Since you won’t seem to let this go, I was 176 lbs this morning. I’ve been known to go to 205 when I was way younger and when I bulk, but I feel best and strongest at 185. I must weigh 176.5 the day of competition if I want to compete in the class I have in mind, if not it goes to 188.5, but like I stated, I’m not scared to challenge myself and go absolute which has no weight maximum, and most guys are 225+...

I struggle with the guys almost half my age more than I do the guys that are 30+ lbs more than me, though. Recovery is a bitch when you get old. Lol

oops, it was supposed to say would smash Colby easily. Like stated, Usman would be a very nice challenge.

Khabib would never take that challenge and fight someone his size in 170. I wonder why he never even mentioned it. He wants no part of 170, so he will kill himself to get to 155. He's that good and wants to be called the GOAT, then show it where he belongs. He is the best I've seen at 155, but has to cut 30/35 pounds to do so. I have no respect for guys like that though. Take a challenge, Khabib will never do so.

JJones said that after he wins in HW and gains the title, then he could be called the GOAT. Will he ever fight in HW like he said. He was offered Francis, he said no go

I miss the days of Dan Henderson, who I think was one of the best ever by far and held titles in 2 classes at the same time and fought all the best

Lol, AD you are a broken record man.

Even if that is your opinion, how many times can you mention it. And these weird little biases you have are costing you money as you have bet against Khabib/Jones when they were the value several times over the years. You're getting an emotional attachment to these guys like a little kid rather than objectively evaluating them on their merits.

I don't really care, but jeez, evolve a bit.

The problem is you always avoid weight cutting in general. You pick on Khabib bc he cuts 30 supposedly, but then you bring up Usman, who cuts about the same to get to 170, so is he scared of 185, too? With your logic, he is. Like I’ve stated a million times, 95% of fighters cut weight, most cut 15-20 pounds. I’ve even stated I’m ALL for same day weigh-ins, but every time weight gets brought up, it’s only Khabib that supposedly avoid a problem. What about all the gazillion other fighters, that doesn’t count? I mean the Heavyweight division is 206-265, and the champ, Stipe, is considered little...

Holy cow, we’re back on Dan Henderson as one of the greatest again. I like Hendo, but that opinion is absurd, even he would tell you that. He would feel honored to hear it, but he’d definitely tell you why he thought you were wrong...

So since I believe in same day weight cuts, let’s say me and you actually scrap, and we both weigh in at 155, and then fight less than an hour later. Is that not fair? You seemed to say it wasn’t earlier...

Again Matt, that's your opinion. I think he is one of the best ever to compete in MMA

How am I gonna water back up in 30 minutes? Like stated before, if I weighed 176.5 lbs to fight, I’ve gotta weigh that right then, sometimes it’s literally 5 minutes...

I would actually be at a disadvantage if I cut 20 lbs to fight 5 minutes later bc I’ll be depleted and have zero chance to rehydrate or anything...
