Media Khamzat Chimaev to Izzy: "You wanna fly?"

[Tylerlikesmma]

Dude is getting wayyy ahead of himself. But we’ll see how it all turns out

 

[plataoplombo]

Izzy should reply.......... "you wanna get bummed?"

Oof especially in that culture.

 

[Adamant]

Oof especially in that culture.

Huh? What about bummed and that culture?

Not sure if serious but if you are, his country of origin is very anti gay so it would be a huge disrespect.

Oh, you mean to do the same thing to Khamzat that he did to Costa? Yeah, I didn't get the comment.

I don't think that'll happen. Khamzat smesh. No problem.

 

[HHJ]

Its exciting.

Im glad he dont listen to people,and tries to go for the jugular. Thats the confidence and savagery you want to see.

Win or lose,it raises the stakes.

 

[dominion]

But why... tho? He’s fighting Leon Andorra he wins then probably Usman... While Izzy is going up a weight class

I think the idea is Izzy can flex between 205 and 185 thereby allowing for the possibility of a super fight with Jones and Chimaev, or anyone else able to come down or up to that range.

 

[MMAElite4]

izzy lost to vettori who is a mediocre MW. Izzy knows his weakness in grappling will be his demise and will never accept a fight against Khamzat.
He will keep lobbying for the Jones fight.

 

[PlayTheGame]

Izzy has nothing for Khamzat. NOTHING.

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

Focus on Yves Edwards

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

Please make this fight so that this hype train can be derailed.

 

[BroRogan]

Next week he is gonna call out Stipe or what? Trying a bit too hard to impress Dana these days. Hypetrain is rockin and rollin but back it up again before going completely nuts.

 

[Vayn Sword]

There's something creepy about Khamzat. Imagine that nosferatu looking mf asking you if "you wanna fly".

 

[Blayt7hh]

Yeah it works when he was crowding a smaller man. Izzy is a big, lanky middleweight though. He tries that shit and he'll be eating counters before he starts to change levels against Izzy
