If tomorrow Shavkat calls Dana for a fight, who shall he fight?

[Rdude92]

Who wants the boogeyman fight?

I guess it must be someone in the top 10, hungry & far from the next title shot.

Comes down to these 4 :
- Prates
- Sean Brady
- Kamaru Usman
- Joaquin Buckley

If ufc is smart, they'll make Usman vs Shavkat. Thats a big fight and very interesting to look forward to but i dont think the old boogeyman is brave enough to risk fighting the new boogeyman of the division

 

[JKS]

Shakvat vs Morales #1 contender.

 

[DiazSlap]

Shavkat vs JDM….gives Shavkat an easy tune up fight to get back into it.

Usman? Come on man…leave old man Usman alone.

 

[Preston broadus]

He should fight belal or usman. His match up with islam would be more intriguing if he can wrestle with those 2

1 loss to the current P4P best in the world doesn't make JDM an easy fight imo

Yeah sort of needs an Arman/Hooker style fight to prove he still is himself, but not too hard of a fight. Just get something under the win column to show he can do it still. Last thing UFC needs is Shavkat in a title fight and he looks like TJ vs Aljo.

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

Isn't Shavkat out for the next year and a half or something?

 

[STAY GOLD]

So UFC management isn’t very smart if Shavkat fights reasonable opponents that aren’t Usman?

How many of the other top 5 fighters has JDM fought?

Shavkat? Garry? Morales? Prates?

So STFU…JDM likely loses to ALL the above badly.

He has been out for about a year

Most rumors seem to point at him taking a fight in Feb-April 2026

 

[Mammothman]

ISLAM

Dude, JDM is not a can just because he lost.

If he bounces back, I'd pick JDM to beat Prates and Garry.

 

[Prazeres]

I like the Usman fight, big name for Shavkat to justify his title shot while ending the nonsense that Ali is pushing for.

 

[El Fernas]

Makhachev.

Nah

 

[DiazSlap]

Not saying he is a can but he wont be seeing gold again.

 

[Soggust]

Islam vs Garry
Morales vs Shavkat (#1 contender)
JDM vs Prates
Belal vs Usman
Brady vs Buckley
Edwards vs Bonfim
