Also, who should be next for Khamzat?

 

[Buff]

Imagine getting hit that hard, that fast, that many times in that many places by a dude that probably climbs stairs on all-fours...

 

[Khaosan]

Looks like shit.

 

[BearGrounds]

Why are they still not teaching him head movement?

Jimminey Christmas. Where's Edmond when you need him...

 

[ulysse]

Also, who should be next for Khamzat?

Allen or Cannonier

 

[Barteh]

I just wanna see him fight I don't give a shit about all the drama surrounding it.

 

[Question]

Also, who should be next for Khamzat?

Cannonier, Izzy or Strickland
Winner gets the a title shot.

IMO if you want to do it soon, put DDP/Cannonier and Izzy/Khamzat on the same card.
Winner fight each other near the end of 2024.

Oh and I guess Strickland either fights the Vettori/Allen or Whittaker/Costa winner in the meantime.

 

[Danis_champ]

Idgaf what he does outside the octagon but seems like he is not dangerous once fights go past R1 and I don't think he has five round cardio to compete with someone like DDP. I think DDP via smesh

 

[Fedora Millionankles]

Looks like Joanna J. with a beard.
Punches looks like an amateur’s.

 

[dominion]

He's a gym warrior. Wasting his prime outside the cage is not impressive. It's kinda stupid actually.

Also, who should be next for Khamzat?

Anyone.

He needs to fight more.

If UFC gives him a big fight Sherdog will bitch he doesn't deserve it.
If UFC refuses to give him a big fight Sherdog will bitch that he hasn't beaten anyone.
If UFC gives him a big fight and he wins Sherdog will bitch that it didn't count and that his opponent was a LW (if #2 ranked WW) or 80 years old without knees (if #1 ranked WW)

Sick of this game already. Give him a title shot already

Jared

Khamzat hasn't even ever fought a legit mw, he would wear out even faster against a bigger guy who's legit.

No, give Khamzat at least 1 legit mw, it's not that complicated.

 

[Killer Kadoogan]

he needs to fight one legitimate MW before a MW title shot. WW I think makes more sense but reasons I suppose.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Also, who should be next for Khamzat?

Strickland

 

[Dionysian]

No, lol. Give Khamzat at least 1 legit mw, it's not complicated.

I remember when people (to include Dana who promised a title shot) said give him at least 1 legit WW. Then he beat the #2 ranked guy and they said no title shot. Too busy giving Colby 3 title shots based on his win off RDA 15 years ago or whatever the fuck it was.

Then I remember when people said give him at least 1 legit MW. They did and Costa dropped. Then he fought the #1 ranked WW at MW and Dana again said title shot if he won. Then they said no again. Too busy having superstar Izzy fight 3 title fights over his last 3 fights with a record of 1-2.

Why would the third time be any different? If he beat Jared do you think all the people that make 40 Khamzat hate threads based on the lie UFC told them at 279 would change their mind? They'd all just toss Jared in the toilet like they did Gilbert and Kamaru.
