Khabib's Wrestling

It is no secret where Khabib's strengths lie. He is arguably the best wrestler the UFC has ever seen. He uses this to rag doll his opponents against their will and take them down where he then possesses aggressive ground and pound.

Once 'The Eagle' gets his opponent down and gets on top of them it is then very difficult for that person to get back up. However, if a fighter does manage to get back to their feet, the take-downs do not stop there. Khabib holds the record for the most amount of take-downs in a single fight where he took down Abel Trujillo an incredible 21 times and what is even more incredible was the fact that this contest was only over 3 rounds. Thanks to his unbelievable wrestling ability, 'The Eagle' has actually never lost a single round in his UFC career which is unheard of at this level of the sport.
