This guy's gonna be big for a long time. I'm ******* pissed that I didn't pick him to murder Shalorus.

Anyways he needs a nickname, not "The Eagle." Like a nickname we could call him without saying his last name.

Like Renan Barao or Jason Mayham or Korean Zombie.

Any suggestions? I was thinking "Shish" Khabib.

I am usually aginst giving guys nicknames, but this is one case where it is nessasary. You can do what they do with the Brazillians, drop their last name and use their nickname:    Khabib Eagle

If you're going to make a thread asking for suggestions, and want people to actually bother to participate in your thread, maybe you shouldn't just take a **** on the first idea that someone throws out there.

Michigan, why would a Russian call himself a 'Sheik'? It's an Arabic title.

I thought he clearly beat Tibau and frankly thought Rogan was riding Tibau hard in that fight. He kept pointing out that Khabib wasn't doing much to Tibau but failed to say what Tibau was doing to him.
