      He knows DC loves wrestling but he can't wrestle most people for the risk of hurting them. DC knows he wont hurt Khabib play wrestling so Khabib is giving DC the play wrestling he loves and probably grew up with. Also if you see tigers and bears with people who raised them, they play wrestle as a sign of affection which is also a sign of trust bigger than just cuddling or rubbing up.

These guys face very strong opponents early on in their careers & it's very hard to gain much attention & stick out while still fighting in small, reagional events especially with that type of competition.

    People are looking back to Dariush's KO losses, Oliveira losing to some of the good old big names, Makhachev getting KO'd. Imagine pointing those out but not even focusing on what they are today.
    When Khabib was reigning these 3 are only in the top 10-15.
    Now theyre at the top dogs of the division. Sooner or later these 3 are sitting right on the top with Fiziev, Ridell, Tsarukyan and Gamrot at the top5/sub5.
    Come to think of it, During Khabib's early days no one wants to fight him, he's getting ducked by everybody and UFC doesnt want him to get a hold of the belt. Khabib is calling everybody out, Pettis avoided him, Alvarez goes for the payday instead of the number next to his name, Nate Diaz turned down the offer and Melendez ducking him. Still everyone's saying Khabib didnt challenge himself. For the last 3 Last years Islam and Dariush are struggling to get a top opponent despite their winstreak, now they got the spot and fighting this time around.

    Islam is amazing. Smooth and technical and will be competing for the title soon. That said comparing him to Khabib simply isn’t fair. The main difference is Khabib’s crazy ability to walk through power such as Barboza’s FLUSH spinning heel kick. Khabib brushed it off. As we saw in Islams second UFC fight, he doesn’t have the same monster head to eat that power. Offensively Islam appears to be a better striker than Khabib. On the ground, both are elite yet as we saw in Islam v Hooker, it was Khabib’s coaching that enabled the finish. Khabib is better. Power and crazy ability to walk through power is what separates them. LW division is interesting to say the least

      it doesn't about fighting with islam his father died and he promise to his mother never fight again, if you like UFC do some research if you don't like or don't care so be silent and don't talk about something that you don't know
