“I know Burns. He don’t play about it. He’s real. He’s really about this life. I’m glad that he’s up at welterweight now because he’s a lot more better at this weight class. Burns is good, but he gets hit. Everyone gets hit. And he’s got power on his punches. You know what, I’ll be rooting for Burns. I think he can get it done.”

I wish he was this open about fighting Pereira.
Edit: the quote made it seem like it was from Izzy but its from Burns.

Also I wonder why he was referring to Jan not Pereira in this post too. Mostly just denies pereira exists

“He’s 10-0 (Chimaev); super confident right now. And I know that because I’ve been there. I was 10-0 not long ago. I thought I was unbeatable until I faced a guy that was so much experienced than me. And I ended up getting my first loss. I know what he’s feeling. I believe in my resilience, and my experience, my jiu-jitsu, my striking; all that together, it’s going to be a rough night for Chimaev. We’ll put that hype to the test.”

do you realize the quote on the body of your comment is from Burns, right?

I either see this as sheer dominance from Khamzat or a very tough fight. Hard to imagine Khamzat being dominated. Maybe Burns can catch him tho, he does have power.

that brutal ko power of 5 kos in 24 fights.

 

[Fedsmoker]

Of course he's rooting for burns, he can smell his death already, and the sounds burns makes rattling the cage will serve as a warning to the rest. Tighten up ladies

Khamzat could beat Izzy and Usman in the same night. Even probably at the same time.

 

[KarateYeah]

Time will tell. Life is uncertain until the day comes and answers from the sky falls in our laps.

 

[Fatback96]

I wonder why…

 

[jojoRed]

Izzy would play with the current Khamzat.....his striking is so rudimentary.

But I think Khamzat is a future champ in both weightclasses.

 

[AmbassadorFright]

I expect Burns to show up with a saggy tit now. Izzy has a magical way of proving middle aged men can go through hormonal imbalances

 

[Tweak896]

Think Izzy knows Khamzat is up next for Usman if he wins, so he doesn't want to cheer on probably the only WW that can beat Usman, and maybe Izzy too.

 

[Mammothman]

Hard cope by Tittysanya

 

[DudeBroMMA]

Izzy is preying that Burn does his dirty work for him lmaoooo

I really like Izzy but his time is coming.... With Alex and Khamzat looming around the corner, I think he loses the strap sometime next year

 

[Reffson]

Khamzat could beat Izzy and Usman in the same night. Even probably at the same time.

Wow. He hasn't even defeated a top 10 WW yet.

 

[Abundance]

Wow. He hasn't even defeated a top 10 WW yet.

He’s already the GOAT bro

 

[ArtardFiesta]

Israel is afraid of Khamzat. You know he is gonna call him out after his fight

The quote is from Izzy. Why would Burns refer to himself in 3rd person? It says on the link that it's a quote from Izzy.

TS edited his post. He was quoting burns at first
