DDP will put him through the fire a bit, above all else the guy has insanely strong will and spirit, enough to match khazmat even If he might be technically outmatched in areas.


Could go the distance
 
If this becomes an absolute war and turns out to be an all time classic fight. Regardless who losses, we all win.
It's gonna be an interesting fight for sure

Very hard to call

Khazmat is technically superior all around, but DDP just finds ways and openings.

I think he's still gonna do that, this time it just won't be enough.

Khazmat could also just dominate him on the ground and make it look easy, but I think that's a little less likely than a grindy battle
 
Could be fight of the year. But if Khamzat gets sloppy while being gassed like he did vs Burns or Usman, DDP will finish him.

If Khamzat can keep up his incredible pace longer than round 1 then it'll be a dog fight.

Nice, breakdown. I agree pretty much.

I hope Khamzat wins he just has some sort of special aura around that guy. He can become one of the biggest MMA stars ever. He has that potential I believe.

Training for 5 rounds Is different than 3

He also fought usman on short notice.

People don't really grasp fighting a grindy, cardio heavy wrestler on short notice versus a striker. Entirely different fight and training.

People judge his cardio on that, which is just lazy analysis.

Getting gassed in 3 round fights means he'll be better equipped in a 5 rounder?

Khamzat was fully trained before the Usman fight. Usman rolled off the couch to fight Chimaev.


I'll take lazy analyzing over somebody not knowing wtf they are talking about.

If you don't grasp that preparing for a striker in Paulo Costa is different than preparing for a grindy, cardio heavy wrestler, then you simply can't analyze fights for shit

Short notice fights, shocking as it may seem to the intellectually impaired, affect all involved parties.

Same is true when it comes to preparing for a 5 round fight. Entirely different preparation. This isn't rocket science. You just dumb.

Take it easy guys, we have potentially a great fight to witness later tonight. So It's all good, we will see how these two fighters are made out of. And it will answer plenty of questions.

I assure you that Usman and his 8 pack abs, who didn’t gas at all in the fight, was training when he got the call. No one is gonna fight Khamzat “off the couch” lmao. That’s just hater hyperbole. Usman did fight Khamzat without a specialized camp tho, sure.

Fair enough, I apologize. Beer and the energy of the night has me a little more aggressive than usual, lol

I think I took it a step too far.
