Obviously, Khabib murders him in an mma fight. But Danis is one of the better BJJ guys in all of mma, while khabib was a sambo champion. In a straight BJJ match, who you got?
You'll have to forgive my ignorance. I loosely follow competitive BJJ, but have no idea how Sambo stacks up. Which would be Mayweather in this situation?This is kinda like asking who would win in a straight boxing match, Mayweather or McGregor
Khabib specializes in Sambo which has some overlap with BJJ but from what I know it doesn’t focus as much on submissions. Dillon specializes in BJJ so in a pure BJJ match he probably takes it.You'll have to forgive my ignorance. I loosely follow competitive BJJ, but have no idea how Sambo stacks up.

Edit: It would be interesting to see how Khabib would do in combat jiujitsu, which is Eddie Bravo’s version of BJJ + palm strikes. You’re allowed to win by TKO so that completely changes the dynamic
Pretty sure the dude that won the first CJJ championship won by TKOnobody kos anyone in that its little slaps u cant do real gnp which is why its very lame u either have full on punches or you dont lol
Isn't Jake Shields one of the most credentialed grapplers to ever compete in the sport though?jake shields beat dillion so im sure khabib could too dillion is great but khabib could hold him off and just stay on top he might not pass dilion but he isnt getting swept or controlled or subbed and the longer it goes the more tired dil will get
Dillon should win pure BJJ, but i think Khabib takes it in any expanded ruleset with points for throws, takedowns, control, etc.

He's no maia, werdum, or roger, but bronze at ADCC and gold at Pan Ams, on top of his wrestling credentials, still puts him way higher up than most.Jake Shields doesn't have super high pure grappling credentials, he is the archetypal "lay and pray" mma grappler.
Shields beated Danis by having the fastest submission in the sudden death after a no points sub only match.jake shields beat dillion so im sure khabib could too dillion is great but khabib could hold him off and just stay on top he might not pass dilion but he isnt getting swept or controlled or subbed and the longer it goes the more tired dil will get
I disagree, I think Khabib could win any points based match, especially a GI ibjjf match. Sub only though I pick Danis.khabib probably beats him in anything its grappling related, but a gi bjj match.
I don't think that's the right analogy. The difference in skill and experience is not as great than it was between Mayweather and Connor. Khabib has such a vast arsenal of grappling skills in so many arts and rule sets I honestly think he would have much much better odds for a potential Danis BJJ match.This is kinda like asking who would win in a straight boxing match, Mayweather or McGregor
Khabib gets a takedown and passes. That's it. How do you guys seriously think Dannis does anything to him? He's not sweeping him, and Khabib won't put himself at risk of any sub.
