Menurut Rogan, Nurmagomedov memang sering mendominasi lawan jika bisa menjatuhkan lawannya.

Namun Rogan memikirkan pertahanan Nurmagomedov mungkin bisa ditembus ditambah dengan kelemahan sang petarung dalam teknik tinju.

Rogan juga menjawab kritikan yang menyebutkan bahwa dia terlalu mencari-cari kesalahan Nurmagomedov.

"Faktanya saya adalah salah satu penggemar beratnya dan dia salah satu petarung favorit sepanjang masa," tulis Rogan.

Saat ini Nurmagomedov menjadi juara kelas ringan UFC menggantikan Conor McGregor yang turun kasta menjadi menjadi penantang nomor satu.

 

It is insanely rare to have a fighter as dominant as @khabib_nurmagomedov. In one of the most talent stacked divisions to go 25 and 0 is incredible, but to do it without even having a rough moment in a fight is completely unheard of. When I’m commentating on someone that dominant I am constantly looking for cracks in their armor, and on Saturday night we saw the first of those cracks exposed by an incredibly game Al Iaquinta. Most people, myself included, expected the highly favored Khabib to rag doll his last minute opponent the way he’s done to everyone else he faced in the Octagon, and that was the case in the early going, but as the fight got into the later rounds Al was able to keep the fight standing and we saw some possible flaws in Khabib’s defense. Make no mistake about it, Khabib won that fight by a landslide, but it went to a decision, and that in and of itself was an upset.
