Cliffs:
-Khabib says Khamzat is better striker than DDP
-DDP is not very accruate at striking but better cardio/doesn't give up
-Khabib says Khamzat should do opposite of his normal strategy
-Khabib says Khamzat should strike with him first round or 2, save energy, and then in later rounds (if needed), go for takedowns/maul/smesh/khamzat-style

Great advice IMO. I'm curious to see Khamzat's gameplan going into this matchup. He's obviously been training his cardio a lot more for this fight.

I agree up until he says "do opposite of his normal strategy". The longer the fight goes the higher the likelihood that the worse striker with the better cardio lands. Plus, the longer it goes, the worse Khamzat's mauling will be and the better DDP is going to be (relatively speaking).

 

[don't ask]

Khamzat has better striking than DDP? I'm not usually one to doubt Khabib's analysis, but when did that happen? Does he mean more orthodox/technical striking?

Khamzat has power for sure, but his head movement makes Ronda's head movement resemble prime Roy Jones Jr. He went to living death in striking with a LW Gilbert Burns, and hasn't shown much improvement since then.

He needs to stick with what he does best, as that's what he's used to and his best route to victory

"do the opposite of what has gotten you this far" is incredible advice. like if george costanza became an mma coach. great job, sir

 

[Neck&Neck]

Go to bed Khabibs youre drunk

 

[FrankDux]

By the way, Khabib didn't say verbatim "do the opposite...", I just kinda paraphrased that be/c his suggestion is essentially the opposite of what he normally does (come out blazing, strike in later rounds vs come out striking, then come out blazing in later rounds).

I dunno...I mean, I get it. I'm curius to see what Khamzat does. Usman is a much tougher grappler/westler/TDD than Burns. Yet, Khamzat came out guns blazing vs Usman and tried standing more with Burns.

 

[Ivancho]

Every DDP opponent had better striking on paper, but he's tough as nails and hits hard

I did enjoy this funny post

But we should acknowledge Khabib was pretty successful as an MMA coach

 

[HHJ]

I do think Khamzat's striking is more dangerous earlier in the fight. We usually in his later fights only see it after he used up all his wrestling cardio, and by then he's not able to hit as hard.

Can’t wait to see that WW chin take some solid MW blows

lol no wonder Khabib said he had to learn English because fans just made up quotes from him on the internet

 

[Chagaev]

Khamzat is a hot head who goes crazy when he's punched in the face and throws the gameplan out the window.

That's what he said about himself after the Burns fight and that's not something one can easily change.

That was later in the fight, which is when his skills start to diminish. Khabib is using fresh Khamzat as the basis of his analysis. I'm pretty sure Khamzat has rocked every single fighter he decided to strike with in the first round.

very sus advice

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Nah, don't suddenly change and do something totally different, what has worked for him so far is what he should stick too. ''If it ain't broke don't fix it'' is always gonna be one of the most true quotes in life

 

[Stagliano]

Lol he would have been finished in the first round if he had followed Khabib advices.

 

[GoWokeGoBroke]

Habibi never wrong. Love em or hate em he knows fighting

Inshallah

 

[chinarice]

Nobody expected Khamzat to have 5 rounds of cardio. Not me, not Khabib, not you, not the bookies.

Only people who knew were Khamzat TJ and their EPO dealer.

Do you say the same for DDP who went from gassing all the time to having 5 rounds of great cardio?

Nah, that would require being impartial and that impartial shit has no place on ol biasville sherdog

No because DDP didn't have a shady out of nowhere association with epo king TJ and his endurance coach after UFC disbanded USADA.
