Dude, you bring up the current champ Makachev....who do you think trained him?
Khabib
29-0.....with only losing one single round to Conor at his peak. People forget how good Conor was and Khabib fukcing worked him. The judges gave him the round just out of favoritism as the face of the UFC. Khabib worked him....toyed with him...used different styles each round just to show he could beat him striking, grappling, it didn't matter.
Look up it up on YouTube....Khabib would fight/spar four or more dudes in practice and work them all the same. Think about going at a dude after fighting three others and guess what....Makachev was one of the dudes.
The only reason why Khabib didn't have more longevity.....as if 29-0 isn't a lengthy career.....is because there was no one to fight him. He told Dana he had no one to fight him and said he was done, and he was right....there was no one else who could fight him. McGregor in his prime, Nate Diaz in his prime, Mazvidal, etc., besides Conor....no one else could even beat him in a round.....fuggin forget about any pipe dream of winning a match against him.
Khabib is the greatest ever....pound for pound he's better than Jon Jones, and I like Jones....don't get me wrong.
