Khalil is dangerous fight for Poatan. If Poatan gets knocked out will there be an immediate rematch?

[Leon Edwards]

Khalil is a dangerous striker who is much more explosive and powerful than poatan. One punch could easily shut poatan out.

Alex won't be able to spam low kicks like he can with others.

Yes I expect if Rountree wins Dana will be talking about a rematch as soon as the post fight press conference.

 

[ChangeIsComing]

I doubt they would have an immediate rematch, Poatan is fan friendly but is not on a defense streak that warrants an immediate rematch if he gets KO'd, now if its a close split.. then it might happen.

If Khalil pulls off a win without blatant controversy there shouldn’t be an immediate rematch. But knowing how the UFC operates, they will definitely do it.

I think you're crazy. The UFC are putting all their eggs in the Poatan basket and will surely give him an immediate rematch.

I wouldn't bet on it.

Should be

Many other champs had immediate rematches in less deserving circumstances

Roundtree is in no universe "more explosive and powerful" than Poatan. He's just black and jacked but has rather unrobust bone structure.

Also Poatan likely has a much better chin at light heavyweight.

alex is the most dominant lhw champion since jones. he has basically cleaned out the division already with the exception of ank so i think he gets an immediate titel shot

 

[Dreyga_King of Sherbums]

Is really dangerous tho?

This won't age well

Its not his chin he needs to worry about. Khalil has the counter to his left hook

 

[GiganticMeat]

There will be two immediate rematches until Pereira gets the dub, like Val vs Grasso. Then we will say we were just waiting for the superior fighter to win all along

 

[colorles]

UFC will avoid Ankalaev at all costs. Quote me here: If Murzakanov beats Krylov in their upcoming fight, "The Professional" will be "Poatan"'s next opponent. (Although if Krylov wins UFC will also avoid him)

Yes there absolutely will be.

Wow. I missed that

Not just more. "Much more"!? How much drugs has that dude smoked.

he's more explosive, but he's not more powerful as far as striking is concerned. maybe in grappling, because he's built more stalky. Alex definitely hits harder though. An advantage in explosiveness might not be enough to close the distance against Alexs though since hes got good footwork and head movement.

I would guess yes on this one.

Wait, what? Based on what?

The guy is fun and violent, but so far he has not fought anyone nearly as good as Alex and Alex has gadooshed fighters much better than Khalil.

What's with all these posts exaggerating how good Khalil is? I would get it if he had beat Hill and entered the Top 5 or if he was on an impressive streak, but I'm confused about what people are seeing with Khalil.

He has a punchers chance, which doesn't mean a thing because Poatan gives EVERYONE he has fought a punchers chance because he keeps it standing.
