This Gaethje guy on the other hand, took it like a man, in a humble way, He still made a positive out of his defeat, showed true sportsmanship and respect and even congratulated khabib and the fight for his father. His clearly a decent wonderful human being, and since Khabib has retired, I have now my own favourite fighter and that's Gaethje.

My favorite UFC star beside Khabib. Watched so many of GSP's fights with friends, screaming our heads off as he was dismantling his opponents. I have equal respect for both GSP and Khabib; there are many similarities between them, not only in their winning performances and domination, but also between their personal values, legacies, and how they impacted and improved the sport. I firmly believe that GSP was one of the dominant forces for USADA rules to come through. Khabib was a voice behind bringing back respect within the sport. Both were INSTRUMENTAL as UFC ambassadors. I think Khabib vs GSP may take place at 165 LBS., but obviously outside of UFC, and likely as a charity event.

Khabib's speech after the fight, translation: "And now for my fans, and it would not be quite right to say "to my fans from Russia", so let's say "to all Russian-speakers", thank you so much, when I started all of this in 2008, and when I signed for UFC and had the first fight in 2012, many didn't believe in me, many thought it would be impossible. I'm a simple guy from a regular village in the mountains of Dagestan, who came over here. Just yesterday my brother told me: "According to Google you are the most discussed person on the planet". I simply couldn't believe it, because if you can imagine, I never had any of this on my mind, it was just my father and I dreaming of becoming the champion one day. I could have never imagined so much could happen to me. If you have parents, be close to them, and that's it. I have only one parent left, my mother. I would like to dedicate more time to her".

Both are exceptional humble AND respectful champions, non-trash talkers with MASSIVE worldwide followers, I could see the main difference already compared with other fights PC. Other PC: I am so good, see my past accomplishments, see all my opponents bad stuffs. Im gonna win. Khabib/GSP PC; Khabib: I know i am good with unbeaten 29-0 winning streak and #1 P4P BUT pls respect my opponent, he is soo good and amazing. He is a 2 division champion and retired as a champion, he is the greatest and my idol. GSP: No no brother, i know i am very good, a two division champion, but Khabib is the most dominant and scariest fighter ever, totally unbeaten in 11 years with 29-0 record. Its crazy ad you grew up wrestling bears. I watched all your fights where you totally bullied all UFC best fighters. You made me want to learn more and more about fighting. Total bromance.

Zeafer Jones yea, watch again... he tried twice and got the second one. Keep in mind that a lot of times he shoots for a takedown but also to close distance for close boxing, then reshoot. The entire point of him the first round was to wear Justin down... khabib said he would wear him down, and when he did shoot and make full contact he absolutely dominated Justin, took him down, passed and mounted easily. Second round he was kicked, shot as he was going down, got a leg and dominated again. I'm shocked how easy he made it look on the ground
