Love Justin. Big fan since WSOF days. But yeah, everyone that has fought Khabib knew exactly what his strategy was going to be. That has never been a secret. But this will be a great fight with 2 guy in their prime. I'm still bummed we missed out, yet again on T vs K. But maybe someday, although it won't be the same now. I knew Justin would do good in the UFC, but I didn't expect this, this soon. I can't wait.

I remember liking and watching Justin in the WSOF of all places and if you asked me then if he would ever be the guy to be fighting Khabib for the LW Title in the UFC, I would have said. "Well, maybe, if he gets in the UFC and everything plays out accordingly, then yeah, it's definitely possible". And now here we are. What are the chances?

@abcdefg9163 I'm not saying Justin Can't win. I'm just saying he isn't acknowledging a strategy that every one else has tried to employ. Maybe he will be the best guy to employ it, and maybe he will win. If so, good for him. We're all just saying every single fighter that has entered the cage against Khabib knew this strategy. That being said, if Justin wins, I will be the first to celebrate. All everyone is saying is that everyone that has faced Khabib with the same understanding has lost. Meaning, Justin has not revealed some secret to beating Khabib that no one else ever thought of. If it works, great. But so far, it hasn't worked for anyone. That doesn't mean Justin can't win. It just means he won't win because he knows something no one else thought of.

@abcdefg9163 Like I said, I am a of Justin, probably more so than Khabib. But I agree, I haven't everyone mention the "Stay off the cage" Strategy, because everyone knows it. That being said, his first take down against conor was not against the cage. So in that case it didn't matter. I'm sure he probably prefers the cage, but I'm not sure he needs it. These are all reasons why it makes it an intriguing matchup. Anything can happen, but until it happens my money is on Khabib. Justin is great, but Khabib can take a punch, take a leg kick and close the distance. He has been doing it his entire career. If you don't think you will end up against the cage against Khabib at some point, that's a problem.

Tough 2 lie We'll probably get to see both.

Feet Work is fine as two separate words, like if someone asks 'Do your feet work"? But Footwork is more referring to the task of each foot. Even though those tasks may be happening at the same time. Yeah, it's just stupid English. It makes know cents.
