Ian had lost that title eliminator to Shavkat about a year ago. Since then he’s had some good wins but i do think Ian would struggle (like everyone else) with the wrestling. I don’t know that calling Islam a duck makes a lot of sense because he’s been so dominant. Realistically if the fights booked today islams what a -500 or more favorite?If islam is offered the fight with ian garry do you think he ducks it ? Imo i think garry beats him, hes to long hes to big great on the ground i think hes all wrong for islam
at LW, He's never faced a bonafied Number 1 contender. his only WW defense is against JDM who had zero defenses and won the title off another aged fighter with zero defenses.I don’t know that calling Islam a duck makes a lot of sense because he’s been so dominant.
Thanks for educating OP.Ian had lost that title eliminator to Shavkat about a year ago. Since then he’s had some good wins but i do think Ian would struggle (like everyone else) with the wrestling.

Ian may have basically no chance but his chances of winning are still absolutely higher than Colby. Colby barely outwrestled RDA when he was in his prime. He'd get besmirched by Islam.C-mon, pimps, both Usman and Colby at least might be able to handle Islam's wrestling. Remember how Usman did short notice against Khamzy?
Cucky on the other hand simply gets taken down and smeshed.
