Khabib is a monster with that wrestling. I swear it reminds me of my coach @Jsmoove_Xcel #AllDay

Khabib is just a bad mama-jama with non-stop pressure and Barboza showed big time heart for surviving. Edson looked to KO Khabib the best he could any time he was on the feet but Khabib was just too much. #UFC219

Khabib Nurmagomedov is now a perfect 25-0 in his professional mixed martial arts career. “The Eagle” will now likely challenge either Tony Ferguson or Conor McGregor in his next octagon appearance.
