Edson Barboza Says Kevin Lee Was Physically Stronger Than Khabib
Quick read

Edson Barboza revealed that Kevin Lee was the most physically powerful opponent he ever faced, surpassing even Khabib Nurmagomedov in raw strength. Barboza described Lee lifting him off the mat and slamming him down, while noting that Khabib relied more on technique than brute force. He also reflected on his loss to Justin Gaethje, saying he failed to follow the game plan by drifting left into a right overhand he never saw coming.
