Kevin Holland wants Chimaev next-“He hasn’t beat anyone in the UFC with a win”

[Deleted member 571517]

Let's not pretend Chimaev has a relevant UFC win. I love him, think he's great and could beat Holland, but this has gotten way out of hand. Only guys Holland has lost to in the UFC are a former title challenger in his first UFC fight (short notice) and a guy with one L.

Khamzat's UFC Record (3-0):
John Phillips (1-5 UFC; believe he was cut)
Rhys McKee (0-2 UFC)
GM3 (6-6 UFC)
---
Total UFC Record of Chimaev's opponents: 7-13 (35%)

Holland's UFC Record (8-2):
L - Thiago Santos (Former title challenger; 13-7 UFC)
W - John Phillips (see above)
W - GM3 (see above)
W - DiChirico (3-5 UFC)
L - Brendan Allen (3-1 UFC)
W - Anthony Hernandez (1-2; 1 NC UFC)
W- Joaquin Buckley (2-1 UFC)
W - Darren Stewart (5-6 UFC; 1 NC)
W - Charlie Ontiveros (0-1 UFC)
W - Jacare (9-6 UFC)

Total UFC Record of Holland's opponents : 43-40 (51.807%); 2 NC

If Kevin Holland has at least one 10-8 or 10-7 rounder over at least one can, I convince he will be a good fight for Chimaev.

Can't tell if serious.

 

[TITS]

Just like Magny, Khmazat will duck those problems at all costs.

You literally post the same asinine shit in every thread. Khamzat would rape Magny.

Fully in support of this fight happening.
But I doubt the Goof is willing to risk Khamzat. UFC is gonna keep him at Welterweight where he is more competitive

I just don't want to see one-sided fight from Khamzat anymore. I want a competitive fight.

Holland went 15 minutes to a split decision with Meerschaert last year FFS.

Khamzat literally only took 1 feint, forward movement to cut Meerschaert to the cage and one punch.

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

Let's not pretend that he beat a relevant jacare. Jacare is almost a decade removed from his peak.

And a year removed from a split decision with the LHW champ.

Best win (and best fighter faced) for Chimaev: GM3
Best win for Holland: Souza

Very true. Holland also went to a decision with GM3 while Khamzat stalked him down like a frightened animal and KO’d with the first strike he threw. Not that I don’t think Holland is legit. I’m a fan.

Wouldn't any round he finished someone in be equivalent?
If not, he 10-8'd the first round against Phillips.

Holland nearly lost to Merschaert lol

Kamquat needs a beating

 

[funkjunky]

Give me Meerchaert over 45 year old losing streak Jac at this point.

nope. gm3 is nothing compared to souza

 

[Dionysian]

Let this fight happen.

Edwards first. It'd be fun later on down the road though, sure.

 

[Doug Money]

Imo Holland is just too big for Bors. Chimaev should stick around ww and win the the title from Marty, THEN look for a favorable matchup at mw ala Andy vs Forrest, where the size difference wont matter. This Holland guy is no joke

Lmao. No.

 

[Willek]

Chimaev is the greatest fucking fighter of all time. He'll never lose.

theres only 3 people holland beat with records significantly above 50 percent wins in the UFC, and he lost to 2 of them. one of which is unranked. talk about shertism logic

"There's only 0 people that Chimaev beat with records significantly above 50 percent wins in the UFC"

 

[weaselkenievil]

Holland has been really impressive. It's always great to see fighters burst out like this.

I agree, I like this guy and wish him well. I’d love to see the Khamzat fight, guaranteed fireworks.

 

[TJ177]

Always love it when fighters use pullquotes that sound like Sherdog thread titles to hype fights that won't happen.
