Was this before or after him and Khamzat said on Twitter they would fight?


Before but I don’t see it changing until he fights. Dana has a way of putting you in your place. Oh you don’t want to fight any top ranked guys? I’ll put you up against a unranked killer

meh. im rooting my arse of for Gaethje but hes going to get rag dolled like all the other strikers khabib has faced. Hope i am wrong


You may be right. Gaethje was an all American wrestler but he wouldn’t be the first outstanding wrestler that khabib has put through a meat grinder.

Lots of people pointing out the sketchy weigh-in for Khabib. The official called 155 almost immediately after he stepped on, without the scale ever settling, and swept it away quickly. Compared to every other fighter where they let the scale arm move up, then settle, then read. Khabib stepped on and declared 155 within seconds.

I’m convinced he missed weight by his own reaction. Not that I really care. I need to see this fight.

Khabib weigh in was definetly sketchy. The fight would still go on of he missed, but he'd only get like 20% right?

A tough weight cut also makes for a potentially weaker Khabib. Tony had cleary lost some of his pop from his weight cuts. Gaethje looked like he didn't cut hardly any weight at all.

Colby Covington gives his pick for the fight

He said if khabib can hold down a sheep he will have no problem holding down gaethje lmao

A lot of fighters are picking gaethje.... which is kind of surprising.

I thought he had to take everything off to weigh in?

I’m assuming he weighed in once then took off his trunks then back on the scale?

that was crazy sketchy. he steps on the scale and the arm is on a constant rise, then before the arm settles in the middle, the judge swept it off fully to the right. i know gaethje won't care, but id be pissed.

He could’ve been 155.5 and still been good so if they declared 155 it’s probably legit. Even if he was over they would’ve still fought but Gathje would get 30% of his purse.

Khabib’s making $3 million, Gaethje $600,000

Took the under in this chick fight. Both like to hunt submissions.

I like this chick from Georgia and her cute little smile and curtsy.

Watch as soon as the judge unlocks the arm, the arm steady rises as he calls 155 and slides the adjuster all the way to the right.

What's a good estimate for the Khabib-Gaethje fight start time?
