Chimaev warning Burns he's coming to strike

Should be a true test for Khamzat. If he wins convincingly, he should get the shot against Usman. That will be fight of the year.
 
Did you watch Usman vs Burns?



Sleep on Burns if you want to, I just hope Khamzat brings that chin.


I really thought burns had him there. But it doesn't matter. Khamzat is going to kill him, then usman.
 
What Khamzat has managed to do, is to become one of the more interesting fighters the past year, where many people are anticipating and looking forward to his next fight.
 
Few more months til smesh time. My dopamine is ready
 
I'm really excited for this one. If Khamzat brutally finishes Burns or subs him quickly I'm thinking the UFC give him title shot & skip over a fight with the winner of Colby/Masvidal.
 
Seems expected. Khamzat not gonna grapple with this guy.
 
He 100% had no intention of grappling in that proposed Maia fight...despite what he was saying
 
I think the difference with Khamzat is that he can maintain near redline for a long time.

Even just watching him doing the sprints. He's running hard and fast every time while others are noticeably slowing down.

Now I can't say for certain that everyone had a similar routine prior, so my ignorance could be showing, though from what I've seen son has energy for days.
 
I think Khamzat if he does actually have a striking focused game plan will win this fight by KO. I think the size and length will play a big factor here, he does seem to have some solid power too. And I don't think Gilbert has the best chin vs bigger guys with power.
 
I think Burns is too small and gets his shit took here. Fun fight though. Still would’ve preferred Khamzat vs Colby.
