What makes Khabib special?

Another question put forth was “What makes Khabib so special that no one seems to know how to find the keys to beat him?”; to which an excited Karyn replied saying that he is incredibly strong. Since Karyn has worked a lot alongside Daniel Cormier, she said she came to know through DC about Khabib’s training and the unbreakable confidence he has because of being successful at such a high level for a long time. She also went to add that Khabib is a guy who respects the sport and is an example to a plethora of people around the world. She said that she felt bad when Khabib had that after match altercation with Conor and his team members, adding that she was surprised that a guy like Khabib stooped down to such levels.
