Khamzat Chimaev doesn't see a real challenge in Gilbert Burns: 'I will just smash him with my skills

[mmamxfan]

He has to get in the cage first...

So much cock from this Swedish competitor

For Masvidal to fight for the belt he would need like 5 straight KO victories. Nobody wants to see him getting bested by Usman again.

Colby I think he needs to win like 2 more times against contenders. His last fight was close so he has a higher claim than Masvidal, that's for sure.

Ideally it will be Khamzat of course.
Via smesh.

I'm on Khamzat bandwaggon, but if he underestimates Burns, he's going to get some serious humble pie.

But then again, this guy sold wolf tickets big time before, he was talking big time against Gerald's BJJ as if he was going to grapple, but come the fight night, zero intent to do so. He might just be talking shit, but who knows?

I still have Khamzat, but Burns isn't someone to take lightly.

How do you know that? I mean he 1 punch folded him but if he didn't get KO'd he may have shot right in.

Burns is definitely no joke, but I see Chimaev winning in a rather dominant fashion.

i dont understand the hype around khamzat - he hasnt warranted any of the hype imo by beating fighters that are nowhere near the top 10 of the welterweight division.

Don't forget he also out grappled one of the best grapplers and top 10 middleweights in the UFC.

If i was Burns reading/hearing this im going to another level in training just so i can cuz this dude a huge piece of humble pie...

I will just smash him with my skills...what a ambiguous thing to say makes me wonder if he believes it himself..


Well see ..this is Khamzat moment to prove it..ive been hard on him cuz im skeptical of most the new talent Dana and CO push because they often get rushed to far ahead too early because they cut a cool sound bite or they have a tagline for the media... I just want guys to know earn it...like your suppose to in sports

If Khamzat doesn't stop Gilbert within the first two minutes, he's probably going to get his ass kicked.

Would be nice to have this timeline of Burns vs. Chimaev and Masvidal vs. Colby right now, and the winners of those fights fight around the same time as Usman vs. Edwards.

Then champ vs. number 1 contender.

Only problem I see with this is having Masvidal or Colby again in a title picture situation.
If any of them wins, the UFC would make up a new route.

A lot of talk for someone with 4 fights against guys that even have wikipedia pages, and has already retired once due to health complications.

From all the cans I've seen Khamzat fight.... he's just going to go in there and throw a straight down the middle to KO Burns or just pound him out from the top.
Burns is great but severely undersized in this fight, he's no BJ Penn.

@Clementine

He sure is

His excessive "smash everybody" trademark infringement on Khabib really gives me peace of mind in accepting that he could lose at any moment. I don't know if it's just him applying a readymade marketable schtick, but if he hasn't received some divine prophecy, technology from the future or was made some varietal of super human in a genetic engineering lab, then he's being terribly naive for someone who was breathing as heavy as he was after his last 1st round win.

 

[mspin]

Translation: “I will just sKill him with my smash.”

 

[chillyoo]

He will smash him with size and strength not skills

 

[KO Shotz]

Calling it now. Khamzat subs Burns in rd 1 then gets a crack at Usman.
