Edson Barboza says Kevin Lee was physically stronger than Khabib Nurmagomedov

Edson Barboza has revealed that Kevin Lee, not Khabib Nurmagomedov, was the physically strongest opponent he ever faced. Barboza explained that Khabib won through technique and anticipation rather than raw strength, always staying one step ahead on the mat. He also reflected on his loss to Justin Gaethje, noting he did not execute his gameplan and was caught by a punch he simply did not see.
