Khabib Nurmagomedov… man, at the beginning of his career he was more annoying, right? Towards the end, he started finishing more, he improved a lot. So I'll say that Khabib isn't annoying.

Khamzat Shimaev…it depends on the version, right? There are several versions. But I'll say no, it's not annoying at all. Kamaru Usman… boring. Jailton (Malhadinho)… boring too, his style is a bit stiff.
