How long before Merab gets chinned?

[Thesnake101]

Is there another Rob at BW I haven't heard about? Because there's zero chance that 37yo (turning 38 this year) makes it to a title fight, let alone chins Merab.

Topuris will smash him and humble him to oblivion and then people like @Ares Black will understand what is a true respectable topuris is as a martial artist .

You really need to learn to get humble, then take a look in the mirror.

In reality, you are a very entitled, disrespectful person. You constantly disrespect champions for no good reason.

You are nothing more than a fighter bashing hypocrite.


Don't tag me.

Merab has an unorthodox Concussion Training Plan (CTP) --

so, good luck with that.

The pic of him in the air diving is so good lol

 

[m249viking]

34 is old in athletics, and chins crack. Remember Gray Maynard eating shots like they were nothing until suddenly they were something?

O'Malley nearly got him in the 5th round so it's possible. I just don't see it being very likely. You'd need someone not afraid of Merab's takedowns who could land an upper cut or flying knee as he shoots.

 

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

It'll happen eventually but with the way he constantly keeps people defending TDs it will be incredibly difficult. Umar had the most success so far. Maybe he can do it after he gains some more experience down the road. Other than him, idk who could pull it off currently

 

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

O'Malley nearly got him in the 5th round and Merab has been KOed before so it's possible. I just don't see it being very likely. You'd need someone not afraid of Merab's takedowns who could land an upper cut or flying knee as he shoots.

When was he KO'd?

 

[nostradumbass]

He has good recovery, but Moraes dropped him, and in his last 3 fights, Cejudo and Umar both rocked him and O'Malley had him badly hurt to the body. I could see somebody going heavy on leg kicks and body shots early to take the spring out of his step and stop him from spamming TD attempts and crack him later in the fight.

My bad, he was submitted by Ricky Simon early on in the UFC but not KOed.

Given how good is TDD is though, I still maintain thar beating him on the feet is the best option. Few aside from O'Malley have that kind of power at BW.

 

[RockyLockridge]

It's not happening he's retiring with the bw title

Cringe and merab and topuria are friends and countrymen they won't fight eachother

 

[ThroughTheDakr]

He has a great chin. With him getting older probably when he loses steam and people overwhelm him with volume. Within 2-3 years

 

[DrRodentia]

well I thought O'Malley would early in their fight. I was wrong.

 

[Preston broadus]

Can't get knocked out if he doesn't have a brain.

 

[surgeyou1]

He's probably going to get KO'd showboating one day lol.

 

[Elegant]

Only uninjured Omalley has a chance

 

[MMAProfessional]

His cardio will get him far. Not the greatest chin but has good survival instincts and manages to turn things around in his favor. Not too many KO artists, O'malley being of the best in that aspect and he was too afraid of the grappling to open up and couldn't set anything up either.

 

[Substance Abuse]

TS is salty Umar lost. Now he's praying for Merab's downfall, lol.

 

[ComeChooDaddy]

How long until Sherdog fixes their shit?
