Damn dude. You really are taking this way too seriously. Lol! You’re going back and forth with everyone. Relax man. You really have Khabibs balls in your throat.

Nobody has much of a chance to drop Khabib because the fight is on the ground. He shoots for a takedown minutes into the 1st round. After that 1st takedown rhe opponent has had such a nightmare on thd ground all they are concerned about is not being taken down again this gives Khabib opportunity to land strikes.
Anyway I'm not going to convince you that Khabib is anything but great and fair enough that's your opinion bud.

@ mikey. you nailed it. that is the very reason why khabib's striking is so under rated. the threat of the takedown.

Past 2 years, you have 2 fights to judge. One fight where Khabib dominated on the feet without throwing a significant strike (Iaquinta)..and the other where he dropped the "best striker" in the division or ufc blah blah blah. In his 2 most recent fights, Khabib has spent more time on the feet. Which to the mass-pop should play into Dustins chances.
I myself, already know what you just mentioned my friend @Mikey
You're 100% on. Even if Khabib gets the TD and you get back up,
its already too late. You're already mentally-distraught and or tired. This fight will be no different. Khabib is going to play with the "Diamond". Drag him down deep then let him float to the surface. Use a round and a half to let his prey thrash on the surface (throw & miss strikes while building false-hope) before dragging him back down again and again and again until he drowns. Rinse & repeat. 27 times its worked.
Dustin is a creature who needs Hope. Momentum. Love. That's how he wakes up, that's how he faces the darkness. Admirable to some but relatable to most.
Khabib doesn't need any of that. Most people still don't know he's a father. Most never will. Besides his father, family is second to combat and 3rd to religion. Always.
Dustin is a family-first provider who is good at fighting. Khabib is a mass-murderer who tricked a girl into letting him breed out of "propriety".

@Bruce Dagestani culture consists of farming Goats and worshipping a pedarast. Outside of wrestling, it is known for nothing at all. Dagestan is far from a dominant civilization. It is barely one at all.

"besides conquering the most dominant thing you could be good at on this silly ass planet..they're not good at much"
Tornadoes are only good at being Tornadoes. Naw mean!?
You know what Dagestan would do to a bunch of Emus!? Its called a BBQ. No bullets needed.

Beckan vs CDF is a 1000% more intriguing and exciting match-up IMO.
Ferreira has the exact style & skill to pick up a DEC vs Taisumov. Look at what CDF did to Khabilov. That was an incredible performance. CONSTANT pressure & grappling exchanges. That's exactly what it takes to beat Mairbek.
Taisumov has been bouncing back& forth from Thailand to Chechnya like usual. Visa issues in the rear-view (for now at least).
CDF pulled vs Trinaldo with kidney stones but that was like 4 months ago & picked up right where he left off.
I expect this to be an all-out war! Taisumov has something to prove & Carlos Diego has nothing to lose!

Got on here just to defend Filth. Y’all **** on him, but he’s the only one I see on here posting bets and winning. Zhang, Covington, 3 man parlay with Volkan all hit. There’s definitely value on Dustin.

Bulletbird Hahaha Thanx for your opinion. It is an admirable quality to defend ones friends. But we **** on him because he's a **** who talks **** when he's right and shuts the **** up when he's wrong.
Fyi everyone on tap is a picking pro (except for u apparently) if u wanna use tap to follow people picks good for u dude. There are guys on tap waaaay better than numbnutz. Hunterp doesn't even get invited to fantasy games anymore because he wins them all. His wall has many people asking him for picks to bet. He's a proven og who never brags. Then u got numbnutz who brags like a fool Talkin about pick percentage on a couple hundred picks.

Not his friend. Just noticed he’s making nice picks and people are clowning him. Don’t make sense to me. I’m newish to tap and haven’t noticed Hunterp. If there’s a way I can follow his picks, I will.

All good Bullet. I have provided great insight on most of my picks and majority of the time the ones I say I’m going to bet on end up winning. Yet my comment still gets downvoted. I learned to not waste too much time on here. These people really take this website seriously to a whole another level. Right now I’m 31 and 7 on my bet picks. But hey somehow I’m still wrong because my comments get downvoted haha.

Eitherway I do like Madge and Blaydes as a parlay piece. I’m also liking Andrea Lee not sure if I’ll put her in a parlay or straight bet since her odds are quite high.

You brag about predicting the same result as most while calling us betas.....Hmmmm
over 80% had Colby and you picked Andrade like the majority as well. You've picked less fights than 99.9% of this site and yet each week you pretend to know the fighters.
I'm an arrogant drunk who can get the job done every single week. that's why they dislike me.
You're a silly casual, thats why they despise you.

I actually picked Zhang. Check my predictions. I called Zhang upsetting Andrade and becoming the first Chinese champ while everybody bashed me. I even said I was going to bet Zhang. Ask fish he was there. Go to page 5 of Andrade vs Zhang.
Yeah. Now you look stupid. Dumbass. Don’t go editing your comment now. Can’t believe people follow your internet gangster Tapology “expert” ass. 💀

The dude is taking a long time to reply, probably telling all his tapology boyfriends to upvote his comment and downvote mine because i hurt his feelings. Do you need your tampon? All day you’ve been at everyones throat.
Don’t @me again ******* mr I’m a red belt on Tapology. You think you’re all superior just because you’re a red belt on a website. Give me a ******* break, you’re a definitely a nerd in real life.
