We can already tell that Dana does not want Belal to be champ and we know he loves Khamzat Chimaev. If he can make welterweight I think Dana will throw him in there. My opinion is Belal will have nothing for him outside of catching him coming in wild. What do you guys think?

Belal would probably beat Khamzat

His got the grappling to keep it standing and is the better striker
 
its a good fight. but khamzat is not reliable enough to make 185 without his IBS flaring up. 170 is a pipe dream

belal is going to have a tough time with shavkat, jdm, and usman.
 
Dana might have loved Khamzat at one time, but that devotion and adoration has waned considerably.
 
Khamzat is done at 170 and possibly done in MMA overall if his health issues are serious. Shame, he had huge potential.
 
I think there is ZERO chances of that happening.

Firstly, the weight. Borz is not ever fighting at WW again.

Secondly, he’s a pull out artist. That’s bad enough. Add that and the weight cut together.

The UFC would deserve to have that card completely fall apart if they gave Borz a TS, and probable ME at WW.

Not happening.

No way. Terrible idea.

1) Khamzat is unreliable. Needs at least one more fight before he gets a title shot (more likely 2)
2) Khamzat can't make 170.
3) Already some great fights for Belal at 170 with Shavkat, Usman, and Edwards all available.
 
Bro Khamzat ain't making 170 again I don't think. It's time to give it a rest.
 
khamzat has gas for one round at ww. belal stops him sometime from round 2
 
Khamzat is easy money for Belal. Issue with Khamzat is he probably won’t even make it to the fight. Guy has pulled out of almost half his UFC fights. He has 7 total UFC fights and 6 cancelled fights.
Wow.
I didn't realize he was 6/7.
