I wouldn't bet on odds. I'd bet on who won flat out. I never gambled much, but I just know Usman would beat the piss out of the neckbeard. Chances are it won't happen because Khamzat has never beat anyone ranked higher than #13. Facts are facts. Until he beats someone in the top 10 I'm not buying into the hype.
If Khamzat is the better wrestler and the line is good, then I think that's a fine bet to take. Otherwise I wouldn't bet on Usman precisely because Khamzat is the better wrestler and may upset.
Sure, size means jackshit without skills, power and other attributes. But when it comes to size alone, current Chimaev is NOT a big middleweight. He’s a regular size mw… Hermansson is not a “BIG” mw. Prime Weidman, Rockhold,TRTor, Romero were big middleweights that could NEVER make welter without kidney failure.
How is Hermansson not a big MW lol? He's looked the same size or bigger than Vettori, Cannonier, Branch, Jacare, etc., all fighters who've fought at LHW. Only Santos really looked bigger, and Santos is also a LHW now.
