When I saw this news, I was a bit disappointed because that fight had the potential to be great, but the real story here for me is that . . .

Khabib Nurmagomedov is a coward!

 

Nurmagomedov has been moaning on twitter for weeks how everyone is scared to fight him, but when a fight comes up against a guy with a name Melvin Guillard Khabib does not step up to the plate.

 

Khabib Nurmagomedov = All bark no BITE!

Do we know for a fact that Nurmagomedov was offered the fight? And considering he was in line to fight Melendez, I find it illogical that he would be afraid to fight Guillard. Not taking anything away from Melvin, he's a superb athlete, but in my estimation, and I would believe most other's as well, Gilbert Melendez is a much more difficult opponent.

Why would you go from targeting a top 5 opponent to an unranked fighter?

 

 

Because rankings don't mean anything, beating fighters with names is much more important for your career - Gain popularity = Cash = Title shot

 

 

 

There is a thread about this on the front page, 2 below your thread.

 

Where? I look on the first two pages and there is no mention of this.

But I guess your thread is more oriented toward Khabib being a can. I agree, Khabib is can.

The rankings mean a lot for advancing in the weight class Khabib would be fighting a guy not ranked in the top 15 according to the UFC's rankings he should of fought Johnson at least he is ranked and Guillards name really doesn't mean anything anymore. Khabib is currently ranked 6th and is undefeated with 21-0 Guillard if you don't count the NC is on a 1 fight winstreak over someone on a 3 fight skid currently. Taking that fight wouldn't put him any closer to a title shot. If he was gonna fight someone outside of the top 10 he should of fought Johnson. Now would it be a good fight? Heck yes I'd buy a PPV with that fight on it but it would do virtually nothign to further Khabib's career. It would do tons for Guillards though.

Well Khabib has been calling out everyone, you'd think he'd step up when a spot opens up.

He's better than all of the cans from Australia.

 

And don't claim Hunt and Lombard are Australian.

G-Sot got KO'd by a jab lol

 

ahhhhh sarcasm to Americans. It's like trying to discuss skydiving with a goldfish

 

Most Australians thought G-Sot was good. It is fair to generalize considering your name.

 

there was a time when G-Sot WAS good...

 

and then his saggy man boobs fell and he grew a glass chin :(

i remember there was talk of g-sot getting a title fight against penn,

 

LW division was full of bums back then

 

Including Penn

 

well penn was the only decent lw in the ufc, joe stevenson florian, tyson griffin and g-sot dont really compare to the LWs that were doing other orgs at the time
