Quick read
Edson Barboza revealed that Kevin Lee, not Khabib Nurmagomedov, was the physically strongest opponent of his career, recalling how Lee simply picked him up and slammed him to the mat despite Barboza's confidence he would not be taken down. Barboza described Khabib as a technical genius who was always one step ahead, anticipating every defensive move, but said he never feared Khabib's strikes — only his submission game. Barboza also disclosed that he entered his fight with Khabib with almost no preparation, having undergone major shoulder and bicep surgery just weeks before and managing only five weeks of training camp.
