For the fans, it’s not just the prospect of finally being able to watch two of the best fighters in the world lock horns inside the Octagon, but also to find out who is the best lightweight in the world. The Dagestani fighter is undefeated in professional MMA with an unprecedented record of 28 wins and no losses while his counterpart Ferguson won on his last 12 appearances inside the Octagon.
When these two gladiators collide, something’s got to give. Either Khabib’s undefeated status will end, or Ferguson’s incredible winning streak inside the Octagon will be brought to a screeching halt.
Former UFC fighter Chael Sonnen believes that the winner of the fight will be crowned the greatest lightweight of all time. Speaking to Drake Riggs, Sonnen said that the result of the fight will determine who the true all-time great is. (h/t MMA Mania)
