Why Khabib should have his moment in the sun as UFC men's P4P king, ahead of Jon Jones
A) Khabib's only lost two rounds in thirteen UFC bouts
B) Look at Jon's last three fights
Anthony Smith- decision win
Thiago Santos- split decision win
Dominick Reyes- decision win that many thought he lost

And look at Khabib's last three fights
Submitted former two-division champ Conor McGregor by neck crank
Submitted Dustin Poirier- who entered the bout on a six-fight unbeaten run- by rear-naked choke
Submitted Justin Gaethje- who'd finished twenty of twenty-two wins and had won four straight- by triangle choke
