I hope Khamzat is ready to rumble. Considering he was relatively unscathed in his last fight with Dricus. I really hope he can at least have two fights next year.

3 would be ideal, but I doubt it.

What's your prediction?

One... Probably in July or August.
 
the only guy who voted "3 fights" is the guy who opened this thread

such optimism
 
I'm thinking three?

It makes sense. Early Paramount fight, then the Trump card and in the fall somewhere in the middle east.
 
championship status where 90% of champs fight once per year, and of course, our favorite thing - ramdandan
as u know quran doesnt allow you to fight, to fight for prizes, to walk around half naked in front of public, get under influence or getting drunk, interact with kafirs to fight during ramdandan, so most likely Khamzard fights one time in 2026
 
If he fights I’d watch as a normal mma fan, if he doesn’t I wouldn’t care.
Simply put, he doesn’t deserve the attention he has
 
Either 1 or 2, highly likely to be 1. All the people always saying champs should fight 3x per year? You are living about 2 decades in the past my guy. I liked it better back then too but we gotta be real.
 
Aspinall hasn't fought in damn near 1.5 years and no one says boo. If I ever need a lesson in how to be elite in the art of double standards, I will always come here
 
More likely 0 or 1 , but I am hoping for 3+

UFC MW belt has been one of the more active belts over the years, so it would be a sad shame if we get less than 3 a year.

This is not true at all though. Jon jones was the reason for the hold up not aspinall. Tom would have fought but the UFC kept saying the jon fight was a done deal then Jon would back out not tom. 1.5 years is bullshit though.
 
1 if we're lucky,2 if miracle happens, 0 i would not be srprised
 
I think he gets the Islam schedule of 2 a year. Many are looking past how his visa issues held him back and how without the belt most turned down the fight, so he had a harder time than most. Also seems like he got his health dialed in. UFC doesn't seem to like to book their champs too often unless they save their ass from cards with no main events like Pereira. Khamzat is basically doing Topuria's schedule but people are only focusing on Khamzat because of his activity history.
