If Khamzat Is Serious About Fighting At UFC 321

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
Unfortunately, I agree.

I could perhaps see someone like Fluffy agree, since it's his best chance to leapfrog Caio and Imavov to get the shot. Small possibility.
 
The Last Emperor set to make his UFC debut at 185 pounds! No man is safe, the arm bar of God shall release a fury, one that has never been seen or will be seen again!

I see no reason RDR or Fluffy wouldn't take it.

Reindeer wants a title shot now. He's getting old and doesn't want to wait a long time.

Fluffy just doesn't give a fuck.
 
Sounds like the Kamazat of old, which is great but will the new Kamzar really do it?
 
RDR is the one to take it. The Netherlands is not that far from the Middle East, and in the same seasons
Bo Rayo and Imavov are fighting in September
Fluffy just fought and might wait for a US card

I don't want Fluffy to take it, for some reason I really like the guy, his story and his fight style and would love to see him champ and him losing a title fight would just give the UFC a reason to not promote him again.

Honestly I am now confused about who can actually be champ in a division that looked like complete murder's 2 days ago. At least Fluffy should fight RDR, Sean or DDP and see if he can deal with the size, he is like really small. All these guys can fight each other and lose but still stay relevant. Once they fight the champ it get weird. Example: Sean is completely back in the conversation, he even already beat Imovov and would probably beat RDR. DDp would even take a Sean fight as he knows its on the feet but I doubt that would ever be made.
 

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.

Nice, we’re already talking about next May with this guy, we will never see him fight.
 
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.
Look, I hope you're right. But all of fighting history has shown otherwise.

Khamzat was inactive as a challenger. That really does not bode well when we anticipate his title reign.
 
Get some extra PPV money. If the new deal is better than we'll see more waiting until it kicks in. Guess it goes for anyone who gets ppv points and can sell at this point.

RDR just moved his family to the states, so so much for Netherlands being close to AD.

But Caio is ready to skip Imavov and take the fight in October.
 
Strickland is the best fight to make if he wants to defend before facing the winner of Caio/Imavov. There's other fights for Izzy.
