Khamzat could rob a bank with just his signed headshot.

Khamzat needs 180 division or something, he's definitely between 170 and 185

 

[Tweak896]

Imavov looks like the same frame but much thicker than Khamzat, Imavov is pretty big for the division though. If anyone helps Khamzat gauge where he is there, it'll be Imavov.

Until chimaev beats a good MW, I have no reason to believe he beats a top guy like imavov.

 

[Striker Fox]

Imavov is standing closer to the camera it seems. He's listed at 6'3" and Khamzat is listed at 6'2", both 75" reach

 

[AL-Tappo McSnappo]

They are both near title shot, why do this?

Or he can learn to cut weight.

It's a good sparring partner. Imavov is an excellent natural striker, he can give Khamzat similar looks to Rob.
Plus they are both from Caucasian Mountains, they will get along just fine.

He claimed, and showed the scale. weighing 217 lbs last summer. Khamzat is a large 185er and will never fight at 170# again.

You can't possibly believe he's a large 185er

I'm guessing Paddy is a large MW too the way he also balloons up between fights

[NoSmilez]

Imavov is a Kumyk (like Mokaev and Salikhov) which are turkic immigrants to the Caucasus.

While people like Chimaev, Evloev, Merab, Khabib, Islam, etc are real Caucasians even though some Dagestanis I guess mixed with Kumyks (not sure but I guess).

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

Both in Thailand - for added context.

if you dig deep enough into real history, you will see that most turks are caucasian too. And lesser caucaus mountain extend into turkey anyways. Imavov was born there and so was Salikhov and Mokaev, that's their identity. You are digging too deep

They probably don't want to swear off fighting each other.

Imagine Imavov wins the title - and Khamzat has no titles to gun for

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

and Khamzat has no titles to gun for

LHW, HW, plenty of options for Borz to continue yapping about lol
