***Khamzat vs Burns MEGATHREAD***

[Via Heeto]

i really dont understand anyone giving burns the third

 

[wlu.29]

Draw

 

[Gigaton Punch]

Colby is a way better matchup for him than burns

Please explain how?
Colby is much more diverse striker with way more output. Power doesn't matter when you're constantly getting touched. His defense looked pretty bad to me

 

[legcramp]

Man it was 1-1 going into the third, both were hurt both were tired and pretty much gave everything they had in the third. I thought Khamzat won because he put just a tiny tiny bit more activity, I thought it was a draw tbh. What a fucking fight lol, will never sleep on Burns again lmao I thought the size difference was too much but Burns is an animal.

 

[AmbassadorFright]

Burns almost got finished in the 1st and walked down and took heavy shots in the 3rd. Wasn't the performance I wanted to see but he still won

 

[Guffman]

Judges got it right.

 

[neomage2021]

How the fuck did they score the 3rd for Khamzat? Gilbert landed the much bigger shots throughout that round. Judges are smoking crack

LOL Khamzat out struck him in the 3rd and landed the harder shots. Pretty obvious Khamzat won the 3rd

 

[CrazyN8]

I say coin toss, hell of a fight though, one of those rare situations where everyone wins.

 

[MMASpeculator]

Gilbert is the worst matchup for khamzat in the division next to Usman.

Colby is an easier matchup.

 

[pinero]

burns 1,3. robbery. even the crowd is booing khamzat

I hope you are a troll, the only round that Burns won was the second

 

[DrunkMonkMeth]

I thought burns won.. maybe cus he ended 3rd round on top. But it felt like a clear win.

 

[Luckyme]

It could have went either way. But Khamzat definitely got exposed tonight. The aura of invincibility is gone.

 

[AB234]

Gilbert's stock went up with that loss.

 

[Andrusz]

Burns clearly. It would've been 3-0 if not for that flash knockdown jab in R1

Cope.

 

[Hleef23]

Very clear rd 1 and 3 for Khamzat.

 

[sky]

It would be a great fight, with epic build up as well

 

[FrankDux]

That's what decided the fight.

R1 Borz
R2 Burns
R3 Borz

 

[Ackmed]

It was 1-1 going into the 3rd...Burns got hurt in the first part of round 3 and while he recovered later in the round and got a few good shots in it wasn't enough to take round 3.

Clear 29-28 Khamzat

Maybe it'll seem different after rewatching but that's how it looked live.

 

[BigGucci]

Both Khamzat and Burns would KILL colby after that performance. Colby's little pitter patter punches will do nothing to either of them and he doesn't have a prayer of getting Khamzat down.

 

[RemyR]

Absolute bullshit decision
