Khabib is probably the best role model for young generation.

He literally got suspended for a year for being unprofessional.. then he didn't pay his fines. Started a brawl, was in countless fights before getting famous.. missed weight alot... pulled out of 8 scheduled fights. Only fought 13 times in the ufc in 10 yrs. How tf is he a role model
