Do you think Khabib could beat Derrick Lewis?

[StormGymLuton]

I see this posted on Facebook and people in the comments were saying Khabib would beat him.

So what do you think Sherdog?

 

[The Chosen]

Yes

 

[HHJ]

In full on mma? Probably not.
Derrick is a massive human being.

 

[AmericanMMA]

Lewis by sweaty balls

 

[Rampage_Jackson]

Lol wut bro certainly not

 

[Hellowhosthat]

Lewis would beat the shit out of him.

 

[Bork Neslar]

Ban

That's the thing about these manlet "GOAT's". You possibly can't be GOAT if some top 20 HW would destroy you easily without training camp

 

[markg171]

He would get KTFO. Don't be stupid.

Khabib has the skills to do what DC did to him. There is a fair chance he gets knocked out in the process ofc.

 

[PicoPulse]

Lol he wont even fight at 170 and they think he can take Derrick Lewis?

Of course, the blueprint has already been set by Floyd on how to beat much bigger opponents.

Derick is a bum. It’s a miracle that he’s ranked as high as he is. Khabib smokes him.

Physically there's just no way he can stop derrick's forward movement. Even if he did take him down w like an ankle pick no way he can grapevine his legs as effectively and derrick will just explode up and when he does that,he'd prob finish khabib there.

Lewis has already beaten multiple actual HWs that are more skilled than him simply via his size, strength and punching power. So no, of course Khabib cant beat him for fucks sake, he'd ragdoll Khabib and knock him out.

Depends how much tiramisu Khabib can shovel down in the training camp.

Maybe in a UFC rules MMA match he wouldn’t win but set it in the real world Khabib could just run away if he was in danger

 

[HHJ]

This is some funny stupid ass shit to think about lol

He doesn't have the size to do what DC did to him. Derrick easily knows enough sub defence to defend against someone Khabib's size.

I do wonder who the best HW I think Khabib could actually beat though. Maybe Tai Tuivasa.

He's not, he's actually criminally underrated and people just assume that because of his physique.

He actually has solid grappling and TDD for someone his size. Also, anyone can pretty much get 2/3 wins at HW and be ranked pretty highly.
