I reckon Reggie and Ron would have done him if they squared up in a boozer.

Especially on their east London patch. They ruled that manor with an iron fist

Sad to see. Wish he took one more fight to make it an even 30. But unlike some, most, champs that say they are retired only to come back, this is it for Khabib. He comes from a different old school culture and their word means something. He gave his word to his mom and he will honor it.

No flash or bullshit; just brutal, single-minded focused, warrior who overcame all comers.

I'd love to see him blitz Conor one more time

Respect to him for living on his terms, leaving a lot of money behind isn't easy in the modenrn world, no doubt his faith and his commitment to it allows him to rise above materialism,unlike many of us myself included, one things for sure no one was going to beat him, he made Gaethje look like a beginner. He looked like he could have walked through anyone today.

So FMW Jr isn't going to make a 9 figure payday off of him like Connor?  :(

Khabib's going off to retire in a village like Thanos.

He can still make plenty of money as a trainer.

What a performance it was. He showed us how great he is,I think it was his best fight ever. Gaethje panicked when he saw that he ate every leg kick and was still pressuring him and out striking him with the jab. Khabib is one of a kind, a great role model and a man of honour. 
He definitely needs rest and stay with his family for now, it's not easy when you lose someone who's this close. I hope he can make up his mind and fight one more time against GSP. A fight against Tony or Conor will be too easy for him...

Daz, I was boozing in Bow awhile back and ended up in some German bar opposite the pub where roggie and rennie shot jack the hat. Whilst sat outside, a group of tourists gathered in front of the closed pub and they were being led by some fat bald bloke who looked like a less fat Dave Courtney.

My questions to you are:

A) who is the fat bald bloke, is he a known face?

B) have you ever taken this tour?

Cheers

Ken

He will stay around for sure. Alot of his friends and family member are competing. Probably will train them and stay in the picture. I think even if khabib is gone for good, his friend Islam Makachev will take the lightweight division title in a few years.

Men of honour and old school values like khabib are rare now (outside of getbig)

He's only about 32 years old as well.

Slow down with all that....GSP beat Bisping and fought like 4x in the last 10 years. He's not even thinking about getting in the octagon with Khabib.

I watched a youtube video of Helwani interviewing gsp about khabib performance last night. He says that he will consider it but won't get to 155pounds and the best will be to find a weight in between. Praised Khabib alot in the video.

Has anyone ever said they were retiring and actually did?  Seems like on down the road they get lured back in.

OK OK. I'll make a few calls and make that happen brother, but you must make the 155 weight division.  ;D

I'm not sure you or me will EVER see 155 again.
