Khamzat Chimaev has changed the MMA meta

[Voodoo Dahl]

What a load of people who just wanna argue to make themselves feel important.

You are right. There is by far a new wave of almost everyone saying they want to have the quickest turn around time possible, and you have to point to the meteoric career rise of Khamzat as the critical mass for it.

If they can make more money and are in good shape with no damage, why not?

Let's see him fight someone good, like Leon, and then we'll see if he's still fighting every 2 months, it's easy when you're beating up weak opponents, he's human like everyone else, even a beast like Khabib was plagued with injuries, Khamzat will be brought back to reality eventually

 

[Dorkman]

He's helping push that mentality for sure, definitely didn't start it. Couple others were taking short notice turn around early this year and he clearly saw the potential to make some bank with that strategy and took full advantage, and good for him. He's probably the best example of the strategy post covid thus far.

What about Bisping getting melted by Fat Kelvin 2 weeks after tapping to GSP?

Bisping always deserves my respect

he will be the first man to fight champion back to back in two months. Fights Usman beats him and then fights Izzy and beats him. OMG.
