News Edson Barboza vs. Giga Chikadze Official for UFC Fight Night main event on Aug. 28th

[TARTARA]

Barboza via KO R2

 

[Portland8242]

Giga is awesome but his game is based around beating guys at distance.

That's a dangerous fucking game to play with Barboza...

 

[FEDORFAN44]

I got Barboza by 3rd or 4th rd tko.should be a good fight tho,Giga is no chump.

 

[Dave Poodle]

Wow.

Props to Edson for taking this fight. He didn't need to. He's higher up. He's giving Giga his chance. I favor Edson if his chin doesn't get cracked.

They're ranked 9 and 10 so they're at the same level at the moment. There's not really anyone higher for him to fight either. No idea when Emmett or Kattar are coming back.

 

[HaulParris]

Gigaton by KO

 

[quadrunner]

Can’t wait for this one!

If Giga goes out there and out “Edson’s” Edson then he will get fast tracked to a title shot

 

[ArchGoat]

Damn two people i'm a fan of unfortunately someone has to lose

It should be a great fight though looking forward to it

 

[Ace70 V2]

Edson hits harder. I expect him to show his dominance. Gonna be a war.

 

[Sure Dawg]

Wow.

Props to Edson for taking this fight. He didn't need to. He's higher up. He's giving Giga his chance. I favor Edson if his chin doesn't get cracked.

 

[Broad Blade]

Oh shit. Count me in. 2 bad ass kick boxers...

 

[dominion]

Yair is unique. It takes a certain type of a disgrace to duck so shamelessly. Pretty remarkable I'd say.

 

[bigbosssnake]

Early Prediction: FOTY

 

[Sanserif]

Good kickboxing match...

 

[rodkek]

edson ending the giga meme

 

[Kratos94]

I don't think Chikadze will make it to the top 5, and his striking is clean - but he isn't special like Adesanya.

But cool, let's call a southpaw left body kick as a Giga kick, because nobody else kicks that way...

 

[DaRivv20]

I wonder how quickly Sherdog will backpedal if Giga loses. It will be a lot of people acting like they never liked him, and a lot of people acting like they were on board since day dot.

 

[MGS]

You want to be the best and fight the best in the world? Less talking, more fighting. Be more like Barboza.

 

[Gio]

I wonder what the odds will be. I think Edson should still be a the fave. The guy has fought the who's who and looked like a savage in his last fight.

 

[Eternalwarriorking]

Wow, Barboza is a gangster for taking this. Giga looks good but I think he gets hit by something nasty from Edson at some point

 

[Dorkman]

Damn, lot of flashy high level technique between the two. Hopefully it dosen't turn into a staring contest of giving each other too much respect
