The Khamzat hype was incredible a few years ago but has long died. Khamzat was the false prophet of MMA while the real prophet Pereira waited for his chance.

-Khamzat was suppose to be champ. Pereira became champ.

-Khamzat was suppose to fight often. Pereira fights often.

-Khamzat was suppose to take on all challenges. Pereira takes on all challenges.

-Khamzat was suppose to be a multi-weight champ, Pereira became a multi-weight champ.

-Khamzat was suppose to “kill everybody.” Pereira has “killed everybody” (metaphorically speaking of course).

-Khamzat was suppose to become an MMA legend quickly. Pereira became a MMA legend quickly.

Khamzat, his team, and his fans touted him as a badass (which he is) but Alex has more badass moments in the cage - Strickland KO, comeback against Izzy, telling Herb to slow his roll etc.

What Khamzat has going for him is he doesn’t have an official loss but losses don’t mean much in MMA. Pereira bless!
 
He really hasn't done himself any favors with the inactivity
Even if it's not an ideal fight he should still try to stay as active as possible. He burned up a lot of hype by waiting around

Yet I think he would maul Alex . He would definitely get him down . Alex was blessed that he didn't run into grapplers during his run.

This exact thread has been made many times on here.. I think maybe even by you yourself lmao

Yes yes yes

we all hate Khamzat and love Pereira now

we fucking get it

Khamzat seemed like he could be "that guy."

Alex has demonstrated he is that guy.

Khamzat can still fulfill the potential he has displayed. His story isn't over yet.

He's wasted a GREAT deal of time, he could have been champ almost 2 years ago after beating burns but he had to screw up the diaz fight.

True.

Khamzat has definitely made his own quest harder on himself by being irresponsible and inactive.

I think this plays a big part of the change in view from the fans. It is frustrating watching someone with all the tools to succeed not utilizing their gifts.
