Ferguson vs Holloway in 2018 would be a Fight for the ages! 😬

[kurtfranklin]

I remember when this happened. I found it ironic because at that time I really wanted to see Max fight Tony Ferguson.

[Arminukas]

Imagine if khabib fought everyone he was supposed to fight

[WildinChiefz]

It sucks that neither of these fights happened 😢

[Janintong]

Wouldve went exactly how Khabib defeated poirier, maybe a bit easier

[argen]

You should mentioned how khabib missed weight when he need to fight tony

[LegBreakMMA]

Kind of glad Max didn't, Khabib was on a rampage at this point and I don't know if he would have changed Max.

[tejaspawar]

Maxx Said it on JRE, they stopped maxx frm Making weight, saying he's not looking good too skinny, stupid guys idk why they stopped him

[Kdn.]

I’m telling you Tony never got injured tbh even Tony said himself that ‘khabib was in the hospital playing it sick’

[viseh]

After seeing volk vs islam 2 as it was the exact same situation i can only think of the same result.

[Brendangotgudgaming]

It's crazy because I just heard Max on another video talking cash shit saying that the eagle was the one who was trying to pull out of the fight yet if I didn't happen because of Max's condition

[mistaschaub]

So Khabib fought #11 ranked Al Iaquinta on one day notice and won the belt that way wow and people actually consider that a title fight when Iaquinta was never anywhere near a title fight

[fastlikebobby]

Even if Islam was to fight Max he is not standing and going toe to toe with Max he’s going straight for a takedown 😂

[adamblancas]

Khabib would have ate a knee to the chin if he fought max

[Hi-fmxg]

I think what actually happened is that Max was concussed from sparring, no?

[mattfarley]

Listen he was supposed to fight two great Strikers very unorthodox and unpredictable Strikers they're both guys that are picked for fights they're not supposed to win on paper all the fans think they should lose but they pull off upsets and I think some people that pull strings knew that so they said khabib straight up and I'm not even really that much of a UFC fan I used to be but one of them would have got the upset

[TheJojoso]

I don't understand.
Max usually fights at 145.
So, in 6 days notice weight cutting to 155 is alot?
What would his walk around weight be? 🙄

[goat]

In the face off Max is looking bigger than Khabib and still Khabib would have got hate by saying "Khabib beat a FW"

[carlizancho]

Max's style is NOT good against Khabib at all. He would've be mauled bad for 5 rounds.

[Datboi-qqde]

Max wouldve been mauled but he wouldve survive 5 rounds with Habib
