Khamzat vs Prime Anderson Silva

first round submission. Bjj game has evolved too much in the last 10ish years. I expect Khamzat's camp to find a weakness in 2010's adersons bjj game and submit him. I dont think a guy who got submitted by a Bantamweight is surviving against Khamzat. If he survives the 1st round Silva by KO/TKO. but I think Khamzat finishes him pretty easily

Hiw does Khamzat deal with someone who will readily except guard and lock him down with a body triangle instead of trying to regain position.
 
Hard to say. We've seen Khamzat look mostly borderline unstoppable but then theres also the rare occasion like having a competitive fight with Burns, and showing a suspect gas tank and somewhat sloppy striking. Yeah I get that Burns (and Usman) stylistically force Khamzat out of his usual gameplan, but still, Anderson would have lit up Burns and probably Usman too.

Honestly I dont think even DDP is as good as guys like Hendo and Vitor either.
 
Lets see how Khamzat does against Dricus before we can do a fantasy fight prediction of Khamzat against prime Anderson Silva.

We will have a better understanding of Khamzat by the time the fight is over.
 
Khamzat was scared of going to the ground with Burns who spent the vast majority of his career at a weight class 30 pounds lighter than Anderson.

He also has extremely suspect cardio and Anderson didn't get stopped by strikes until nearly 20 years into his career so yeah... I'm going with the proven commodity over the hype job on this one. Khamzat's resume still does nothing for me

You rush in all wild like that on Silva then you are going to sleep, I don't care how fast and athletic you are.

Based on Khamzat's long title reign, right? When he set records?
