26-0 is amazing against even weak competition.
Khabib has fought tons of legit guys.

How has he never lost a round if he arguably lost the fight against Tibau?? The guy is still a paper champ with 0 defenses, so “God-Tier resume” if he retired now? Stop.
Yeah most of those 26 are cans....
Tim Sylvia was 28-1 at one point....enough said
Pretty impressive for someone that was 17-2 at one point in his career. Not only did he rack up a substantial amount of wins after that they also took one of his losses for some reason. By the time Tim had 28 wins he had 7 losses, please don't make up facts to suit your argument.Yeah most of those 26 are cans....

Lets not go that far.If he retired today, he already has a legendary god-tier resume.
That's all well and good, but I'm talking about actual fighting.Exactly his TDD is terrible...I can’t believe more fighters don’t exploit it. I’m talking about his actual defensive wrestling technique.
Why is everyone so high on this dude? 2 good wins again RDA and MJ and maybe maybe Barboza. I hardly call that a great win because Barboza has zero TDD and ground game.
I’m not convinced on this guy at all.
Also Khabibs striking is laughable...his top control is devastating though I will give him that, but I’m not on this hype train at all.
Sylvia was trash that’s the point, you can pad up a nice resume on cansAnd held a long standing record for title defenses at HW...
You don’t know what you’re talking about do you, sir?

I thought this was inferred the moment he said Barboza had 0 TDD.And held a long standing record for title defenses at HW...

Prior to the Khabib fight, Barboza successfully defended 87% of takedowns.

While I believe there's definitely several interesting matchups available for him still (alvarez, ferguson if that shit ain't cursed, Lee, mcgregor, poirier), there's no denying that khabib has been undeniable in his career. Dude's never lost a round, and is 26-0. That's a pretty big fuckin' deal. He's the legit champion in my eyes. However, I also think that with his single-minded style he'll find his kryptonite sooner rather than later. Every fighter who relied exclusively on a single aspect of mma, regardless of how good they were at it, has done the same. Maia, Machida, Ngannou, etc.Why is everyone so high on this dude? 2 good wins again RDA and MJ and maybe maybe Barboza. I hardly call that a great win because Barboza has zero TDD and ground game.
