Kalugin debates greatest UFC fighters list, adds Khabib and Conor to top 10

MMA commentator Kalugin responded to Vlad Matveev's top 10 greatest UFC fighters list, expressing surprise at the absence of Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor. Kalugin argued that greatness should include not only titles and opposition quality but also a fighter's overall impact and scale of influence on the sport. He proposed adding several criteria including contribution to MMA popularization, peak form, fight dominance, commercial success, and records. Based on these expanded criteria, Kalugin presented his own top 10 list with Jon Jones first, Georges St-Pierre second, Khabib third, and Conor fourth. He emphasized that fighters like Khabib and Conor significantly expanded MMA's global reach and inspired countless followers.
