Didn't he just retire? Already he's sounding like an old man talking about what ifs

 

[SamuraiBro]

He’s right, it wouldn’t have gone 5 rounds. He would’ve been chinned in the first round.

 

[Alpha_T83]

Big talk from a guy that was KO'd in his last 2 fights and hasn't fought in over a year.

 

[moosaev]

Is this news worthy? In their mind every fighter is undefeated in hypothetical matchups.

I mean I expect most fighters to think they'll win any fight in their weight class, but "neither of us lose decisions" isn't really that great of an argument when it's a guy who's been finished 6 times talking about a fight with a guy who's only lost a couple rounds in 28 fights and finishes most people.

 

[Cherry]

I believe him yo

 

[MMAFanCal]

He cannot beat Islam even in his dreams. He is suffering from the same delusions Belal was.

 

[usernamee]

He really didn't have the greatest luck and timing. Dude was on a 8 fight winning streak at one point and never got the title shot.

 

[Hymen Crusher]

Ok

 

[ricc505]

Me too

That's what he believe and I don't blame him, but in reality this fight would be more or less the same that happened to him against Charles and Arman.

 

[jnes]

Dariush was good but man he was over hyped during his run on here. All the elite lightweights of the past few years sleep him brutally.

 

[richardjohnson]

Well they were supposed to fight early 2022 and Dariush pulled out. I get injuries and shit happen but still.

 

[ChrisBenoit]

Tell em Benny. I believe you.

 

[Jawth]

I mean, probably not but most guys anywhere near the top believe they are the best. I dont think its THAT crazy.

Back in 82, I could throw a pigskin a quarter mile.

Yeah, I think he's delusional but I do agree. I believe he thinks he could've beat Islam but I think Islam beats him pretty easily.
