Media Stephen Thompson: I'd put money on Chimaev beating Burns

[Unheralded Truth]

When asked if he's sure enough to actually bet on Khamzat against Burns:

"There is a lot of hype behind the guy, and I'm along for the ride man. The guy's been showing out and beating guys, not just beating them, but destroying them out there. So yeah, I'll put my money on Chimaev."

As nice as Stephen Thompson is, I'm sure he'll take some small pleasure in watching Khamzat beat down the guy that rabbit punched him multiple times in their fight

I agree. Khamzat is easy money here

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

Post the slip or GTFO

 

[Fraz]

Well Stephen you fight for the UFC so you don't have any money!

 

[SmoothPies]

If Khamzat beats Burns as easily as he has everyone else, it's pretty much over for everyone at WW and MW

Oh please. He's got that Rebbok, Venum, and incoming Under Armor money!!!!!

Yeah that fight was relatively clean until that last takedown, I was like wtf?

He’s right, Borz doesn’t just beat guys he destroys them. It’s not hype and shertards will find out very soon its not hype if they are too dumb not to realize it now.

I agree Sherdude. But we both know how this goes.
The non believers will just hate on him more when he proves them wrong. Instead of giving him credit they'll just hate more. For no reason other than sour feelings.

That’s a good thing actually. Fans want to see him fight and win and the haters want to see him fight and lose. Looks like everybody can’t wait to see this guy back in action

Lol

 

[1BadMF]

I agree. Can't wait to see Khamzat fight Usman too.

 

[mjfan23]

Karate guy has fought Burns so he knows what burns is capable off. And it’s obviously not even remotely close to what Khazmat brings!

@StonedLemur when do you lose the yellow cards?

 

[chinarice]

Well Stephen you fight for the UFC so you don't have any money!

Legit lol'ed. Thank you sir.

 

[StonedLemur]

@StonedLemur when do you lose the yellow cards?

Not exactly sure sir. Why whats up?

 

[Oz.Pride]

As long as Khamzat stays away from Ruthless Bobby Brawler he should stay undefeated.
