Media Anderson Silva says Khamzat is a beast but he thinks Alex would win

Pereira helped Anderson for his fight against Adesanya, and cornered him too.

Has Alex been with an actual wrestler before? Khamzat could very well GnP him to a finish.

I don't know enough about Ankalaev to assess his ground game.
 
Alex would KO him if they fought any time soon. Alex has a far higher fight IQ, and every round starts standing.


People forget despite how much success he had against DDP, stuff like this was still happening....Khamzat is very good but not what the odds would suggest in a hypothetical matchup. Alex would embarrass him, Khamzat hasn't shown the ability to finish elite fighters (outside of a jaw injury against Whittaker), if he fought like he did against DDP he's going to be put to sleep within 3 rounds.

Alex has the touch of death that might just kill Khamzat.

Look what burns did. Burns is a little boy compared to the power of Chama
Adesanya took Pereira down. Have you seen Adensanya's grappling compared to khamzat? He'd besmirch Izzy and Pereira
 
A Brazilian picking a Brazilian to win is pretty normal, so yeah. Plus, he has a point. Alex has the touch of death.
 
I tend to pick my close friends too...
 
Many want to talk about Khamzat's fights with Usman & Burns but those were years ago. We gotta go off of his most recent performance in which was fckn dominating. If Khamzat gets a hold of anyone they aren't going anywhere. Love me some Pereira, but Pereira wouldn't be able to do shit against Khamzat once the fight hits the mats. Yes, Alex got TDD, but idk if anyone would be able to non stop stuff Khamzat's takedowns for 25 minutes especially at this point in time.

Pereira definitely checks off all the boxes in the stand up department, but we all know that Khamzat wouldn't stand & bang with Pereira for more than 5 seconds. Pereira will always be able to land a shot that puts anyone to sleep, but if I was to bet I would put my money on Chimaev grappling, wrestling, & pace over Pereira's chances of landing a KO.
