Media GSP can't come up with any MW to beat Chimaev, supports Usman in his plan for a rematch

[Unheralded Truth]

"Chimaev is very complete and well-rounded, you have to be a threat stylistically there and one guy I saw that could have been was Bo Nickal. But unfortunately for him he lost that fight.
Umm, it's interesting. Another guy I thought could have caused problems was Whittaker, but you know, Khamzat just beat him in the first round and broke his jaw I believe. So I'm not sure,
he seems really unstoppable right now. I think you must have a guy that is well-rounded like him, so from what I've seen, I watched his fight with Kamaru Usman where he took that on
short notice and he did pretty well."

"I mean, the first round was all Khamzat of course. But if I remember correctly, I think Usman got the third round. So let's imagine if he had a full camp to prepare for that match-up and
they're fighting for 5 rounds. That would have been an intreresting fight now when there are so many question marks at 185. I think right now that Khamzat is the best, but that doesn't mean
that you'll always win. We see it all the time in other sports, it's not always the best baseball team or basketball team that wins the game, some nights they lose even though the odds are
favoring them. For some reason people don't believe it's the same in fighting, that it's always 'the strongest man who will win'".

Do you agree with Georges?

 

[don't ask]

I'd like to see him rematch Usman.

I still have no idea what Khamzat is really capable of. I've never seen such a big question mark in a fighter.

It would be one thing if Usman was fighting anyone and everyone at 170 and 185 saying he wants Khamzat to drum up interest, but he hasn't done that at all. No one wants to see Usman anywhere near a championship fight when he's looking for a gifted title shot.

You haven't seen such a big question mark as in someone who usually runs through his competition, and when he doesn't run through them (which has happened like two times), he still wins?

How is that a question mark? Let alone a BIG question mark?

You literally quoted the answer to your question: I have no idea what he's capable of. Has he filled in the holes we saw in the Burns fight? Does he actually have the cardio issues he's reputed to have and is masking it by training with people known for EPO doping? I have no idea. Every time I think I'll get these questions answered, something insane happens (Whitaker's injury, DDP deciding to not defend takedowns against a wrestler).

Khazmat showed improved cardio and gameplan in the DDP fight.

Usman is now even more older. I would go with Khazmat due to age and his size with continuous improvement. Maybe back in 2023/4 Usman with a full camp could have. I don’t know about anymore.

I mean.... He just had the most sided beating of a current champion of all-time..

Yeah, but that champion had the stupidest gameplan of all time. DDP's approach didn't show me anything I didn't already know about Khamzat, it just showed me how Khamzat would steamroll someone who didn't defend takedowns (which I already knew).
