Media Coach Mark Henry: "Zabit is BACK!"; Zabit responds: "See you soon, coach"

If he had the surgery needed, he should come back and take somewhat of a warm-up fight first. Threerounder too just to see how he feels post-surgery and the lay-off. Glad he is back.
 
Why would anyone think Zabit is a threat @ FW? He cannot fight 5 rounds and has lost every 3rd round he's been in some to subpar fighters too.

Zabit is talented and complete but his inability to handle pace and go long would get him destroyed against Max, Volk, Ortega, Emmett. Even Kattar in 5 would beat him

Are you drunk ? He has only lost one fight.
 
Number 1 contender fight. Should've already fought for the belt. But not against pull-out specialist Yair. Giga is an option.
 
Who should he be matched up against Next?
Giga?
Korean Zomibi?
Barboza?
Winner/Loser of Max Vs Yair (I already regret typing this one)?
So many interesting match ups



Id kinda like to see them give him a soft landing against a lower top 10 ranked guy in a 3 rounder.
His following fight should he win needs to be a top 5 guy in a 5 rounds fight.
 
I don't think he really deserves a ranked competitor based on the level of inactivity. Talented fighter for sure but his ability and or desire to compete on regular active basis is questionable. I know his health has been the recent issue for his inactivity but before that he wasn't the most active fighter either.
 
Zabit 2.0 will clean out the division, move up weight class and clean out that division too. Mark my words.
Agreed. It's over for the 145 and 155 lb divisions unfortunately.

Same thing with 170 and 185, Khamzat will rule both with an iron but fair fist.
 
Yair vs Zabit needs to happen sooner than later.
 
I am very very intrigued by a Giga vs Zabit fight. I think it would be a great stand up fight.
would be FIREWORKS!!!

Karate vs Kung Fu like fucking old-school movies!

Just so long as the next words out of his camp aren't about how Zabit's earned a title shot. Him versus Giga, or Ortega would both be intriguing fights.
 
FW turned amazing almost overnight.

Volk, Ortega, Max, Giga, Zabit in their primes... sweet!
 
Confirmed by his coach via instagram:



Of course the biggest question remains if his cardio has improved.
I personally believe he's a top 3 featherweight in the world and can 100% become the champion. He's the most skilled fighter in the division. No one would have an answer for his wrestling.

Who would you like to see face Zabit in his return?
I vote for Giga.

Love him or hate him, this is GREAT news for the sport. I know I'm not the only one that's missed watching him fight. Dude is arguably the most entertaining fighter.

Welcome back Zabit!
