If Khamzat Is Serious About Fighting At UFC 321

While I absolutely despised watching him back cuddle for 25 whole minutes against DDP, I'll gladly suffer through it again just to see all the hilarious butthurt on here once more.

Book it, Dana.
 

Khamzat vs RDR co-main would be awesome. RDR loves to be active and certainly wouldn't turn down a title shot. I'd rather see Fluffy but beating Rob > beating Dolidze.

Winner fights Imavov/Caio winner around May/June, especially if Khamzat beats RDR because Ramadan is mid-FEB to mid-MAR.

Then Fluffy vs DDP in January/February, and if Fluffy wins he gets a title shot end of 2026.

The rest of MW moving forward:
-Strickland/Izzy can do the rematch they want.
-Costa vs MVP
-Allen vs Whittaker
-Dolidze vs Cannonier

Abu-Dhabi pays a shit ton of money so I don't think a HW Title fight between 2 unproven draws & Khamzat is out of the question. If they can afford Islam, Volk, Khamzat, & Usman on same card. As well as Ilia, Max, Khamzat, Whittaker, this seems feasible. Abu-Dhabi PPVs always bang bro.



Why would he need to wait til June? Fight again mid February or late January, then take the spring off for Ramadan and fight in June/July.
 
I hope so but unlikely, I won't hold my breath on it.

I hope it happens, would be great.

...but you do know Khamzat has been very inactive, despite talking a lot of shit. You know that, right?
 
He wants to have 1 fight where he gets PPV points before the UFC moves to Paramount+.

LOL, RDR will probably not take this fight as he seems smart and we know he watched what happened last night. I mean I think RDR lost to Rob and he for sure is not going to be able to do his fence bullshit against Khamzat so he should probably wait and see what happens. Maybe Khamzat moves up or retires after a couple of defenses and things open back up. RDR should concentrate of Fluffy or SEan first, I think he loses to both.
 
I agree. If Chimaev, his team, & Dana are serious about him fighting at UFC 321 then him vs RDR makes the most sense. With Imavov/Caio already being booked & Fluffy needing another win I would think that is the only fight that would be put together.

Injuries, health issues, and visa issues.

None of that at this very moment, so the only thing stopping that happening is if UFC says no, or no one wants to accept the challenge on somewhat short notice.

No one is going to accept I bet and Abu makes it even harder of a sell. RDR would of last week but I doubt he would now which is really funny. I am not even even shinning Khamzat I just think its does not look very positive for any of the contenders who were much more of a realistic match up before last night. Also taking short notice fights in Abu never seem to work out well for the guy who needs to travel
