I mean he took a lot less damage in GNP than a lot of "better" grapplers. He did a good job of dirty grappling -- holding the cage and gloves to keep himself relatively safe. His TD defense wasnt as good as I thought it would with his athleticism and hip movement, but he kinda slipped away once or twice I think. he got out of that Kimura which some people are saying Khabib let go ---- but then he made like the pre-white belt mistake of just getting frustrated and giving up his back. I mean I dont know what it feels like to be punched while grappling, and when you are getting punched, turtling seems like a nice option im sure....

On the flip side, Khabibs pressure and transitions between positions is so good.
