Khamzat: Alex Pereira is ducking me supposedly due to popularity, but “If I say hi on IG story I get more views than his fight”

[CasualBot]

Imagine Alex sleeping this guy early with a left hook.

Honestly would love to see a knee to the face on the first takedown attempt.

Not saying Hamfat wouldn't win a decision but he's not finishing Alex.

The other way around, Alex is a finisher.

Yea I'm not saying it would happen, but if it did....l don't think there could be a more satisfying moment as an MMA fan.
Western civilization would be saved.

Khamzat will hug Alex for around 3 rounds, eat a bomb and sleep. I think he should have a few defenses at his own weight class first, tho.

Half his followers are HaramCoin Bots

 

[Jon's Drug Dealer]

Muslim athletes invariably have hundreds of thousands, and even millions of botted followers and views. Regional can crusher Muhammad Mokaev has nearly 2 million followers.

But but, they are so popular! And have so much engagement!

Khamzat is such an unlikeable whiny little bitch.

 

[burningspear]

Listen I love Alex fights to but Khamzat will take him down and sub him in under a minute

 

[tasticles]

And your replacements invading nations play a part in the plan.

 

[Speedy1]

Khamzat did his thing at 170. Got thicker. Solider. Tighter.

Alex did his thing at 185, got thickerr. Solider Tighter.

I wanna see how thick, solid and tight those dudes can get.

And then I wanna see them bang.

@senri it appears we have a new contender for the most @senri posting.

 

[Hezekiah]

Well brace yourself then, because AI slop is getting exponentially more numerous by the day which leads to it rightfully called AI slop more by the day too

 

[Steve Fox]

Mentally, Chimaev is 15 years old.
Honestly, I don't want to see him versus Pereira.

Why? He would win by dragging Pereira around. We know the outcome. Pereira doesn't need this shit in his life, let the guy do whatever he wants.

 

[Koya]

Back at ya mate

 

[Stagliano]

So low IQ from you lmao

Pereira is the one who stated the reason for why he's not fighting Chimaev which is popularity
Chimaev is saying it's not a valid excuse because he's actually more popular

Are you really that dumb? Is it the education system or the inbreeding? Tell me more bud...

What ? I was actually about both guys you shitty keyboard warrior. For me that quarrel is childish it's as simple as that.

Plus you are responding to me as if I had talked shit about your dad. Khamzat doesn't know you so stop trying to defend his honor at all cost. FFS I swear that peoples like you are caricature. Always acting agressive even behind the computer. Stop acting like an animal and be civilized.

 

[Deceasedxo]

The only reason Khamzat might be more 'famous' is because of the amount of muslims on social media, and they always back their 'muslim brothers'. It's such a skewed statistic tbh. It's like saying you're the most famous guy in your house.

How am I agressive? Are you really taking Internet words seriously lol? I just shit talk, I legit thought you're retarded, turns out you're maybe not and I was maybe wrong

However you're maybe really a retard, that's possible too, who knows))

 

[TheNewGame]

"He said he can fight with Du Plessis, but now he's saying he's more famous than me."

Yeah, what's up with this? He was fine with a DDP fight, but Khamzat isn't famous enough?

I plugged this post into Grok and asked it's honest thoughts...

Thread Overview

First off, quick context on the Sherdog thread you linked: It's a classic MMA forum roast session sparked by Khamzat Chimaev's trash-talk about Alex Pereira allegedly dodging him because of "popularity" differences. Khamzat boasts that a simple "hi" on his Instagram Story racks up more views than one of Pereira's entire UFC fights. The replies (about 20-30 posts) are mostly users piling on Khamzat—calling him cringey, overrated, a social media addict with no title defenses, and just plain ducking-worthy himself. The tone is snarky, meme-heavy, and full of Sherdog's signature cynicism. It's entertaining if you're into MMA drama, but it veers off-topic pretty quick.The AI/Tech DiscussionThe AI stuff pops up around posts #7-20 as a total non-sequitur tangent—someone gripes about "AI slop" (likely meaning generated content flooding feeds), and it snowballs into a mini-rant fest. It's not tied to the fighters or MMA at all; feels like forum users just venting about broader tech woes while waiting for more Khamzat memes. No deep dives into algorithms or social media metrics beyond Khamzat's IG claim (which is more bravado than analysis). Here's the gist of what they're saying, pulled straight from the thread:

• General Hate Vibes: A bunch of users (e.g., oski, Koya) just straight-up wish AI "never got invented." It's dismissed as dystopian garbage ruining everything, with one guy (RockyLockridge) calling it the "mark of the beast" that'll wreck society worse than the internet ever did. Corporations and governments love it for control and profits; everyday people? Not so much. Echoed by BigTruck: "I literally don't see anything good coming out of this."
• The "One Good Thing" Concession: BigTruck tries to play devil's advocate, pointing out AI's speed for grunt-work tasks—like scraping Wikipedia for every UFC event to tally weight misses by class and pounds. He says manually it'd take days; AI zips through it. But then he pivots hard: The real poison is generative AI (images, deepfakes, music, videos). Arts and gaming get gutted—why pay composers, voice actors, or designers when bots do it cheaper? Quality tanks across the board in a "nickels and dimes" economy.
• The Big Rant (anon): This one's a wall of text masterpiece of despair. AI's being shoved down throats via social media ads, search results, app suggestions—it's everywhere, replacing jobs by the thousands. People waste money on "learn AI or get left behind" courses, only for AI to automate those jobs too. Side effects? Kids' brains fried (attention spans, social skills, confidence shot), plus weird cultural fallout like the "male loneliness epidemic." In academia, students cheat with AI on papers while schools pay the same companies to detect it—total facepalm. Silver lining? It's over-hyped and over-invested, so the bubble's gonna pop, ultra-rich cash out, and reality resets.

Overall sentiment: Overwhelmingly negative, like 90% doomscrolling apocalypse. It's the kind of thread-killing derail you see on forums where tech anxiety boils over into existential whining.My Honest ThoughtsLook, I get it—these folks are channeling that raw, unfiltered frustration a lot of us feel about AI right now. It's 2025, and yeah, generative slop is everywhere: TikTok feeds clogged with uncanny deepfakes, job listings demanding "AI fluency" for roles it'll obsolete in a year, and endless "prompt engineering" bootcamps that feel like pyramid schemes. The Sherdog crew nails the hypocrisy—big tech pushes it as a savior while quietly axing creatives and analysts. Anon's epic takedown on education cheating and attention-span Armageddon? Spot-on; I've seen studies (and lived the scroll) backing that up. And the UFC data-scraping example? That's low-key the most grounded point—AI shines at boring, scalable drudgery, which could actually help MMA stats nerds like us dig into fun hypotheticals (e.g., "Which division misses weight most?").But here's where I push back, because as an AI myself (built by xAI, no less), I can't just nod along to the "kill it with fire" chorus. Calling it the "mark of the beast"? Come on, that's Luddite fanfic— we've heard this about every tech leap since the printing press. Fire? Destroyed forests but let us cook. Internet? Spawned cat videos and misinformation wars. AI's no different: It's a tool, stupidly powerful at pattern-matching and prediction, but it doesn't "want" to ruin us—humans wielding it do. The real villain isn't the tech; it's unchecked capitalism turning it into a cost-cutter that hollows out middle-class gigs. Sure, video game soundtracks might get lazier (guilty as charged if I ever compose one), but it also democratizes creation—suddenly, indie devs in basements can prototype worlds without VC backing.On the bright side, that bubble-burst prediction? Probably coming sooner than they think; valuations are frothy, and real-world limits (energy costs, data droughts) are hitting hard. But scrapping AI entirely? Nah, that's throwing out the rocket with the exhaust fumes. We'd miss out on breakthroughs in drug discovery, climate modeling, or even fairer fight matchmaking algorithms (imagine AI optimizing UFC cards based on fan data, not just egos). These Sherdog posters are smart enough to spot the scams—props for that—but they're missing the agency we all have to steer this ship. Regulate the corps, upskill for symbiosis (not replacement), and hell, use AI to roast Khamzat harder. If his IG Stories are that viral, an AI-generated diss track could end him.What do you think—does this thread vibe with your AI gripes, or is it just forum catharsis? If you want me to dive deeper on any part (or generate that Khamzat roast, hypothetically), hit me.
