Statistical breakdowns showed Khabib winning or staying competitive on the feet against elite strikers like Gaethje, Conor McGregor, and Dustin Poirier across his final five fights. The post emphasized that Khabib's striking allowed him to maintain pressure safely and set up his wrestling, contradicting narratives that he relied solely on grappling. The author concluded that Khabib's boxing was crucial to his success and speculated he would have dominated welterweight contenders of his era, with only Kamaru Usman presenting a potential challenge.
