Makwan Amirkhani: "Every other featherweight should be 'scared' of me"

[MMAAAM]

The goat is now training at SGB with McGoat.

 

[MagnusGOAT]

He was less than stellar. He has a lot of work to do but he's young and talented.

 

[Diet Otsuka]

Yah, nah.

But I would like to see Cole Miller vs Makwan.

 

[The Natural Born Runner]

Bang average performance, another hype-job.

 

[Nightmaree]

but he's 3-0 so one more win and he is top 15 guy

 

[The ScorpioN]

Someone with a ground game higher than blue belt level would give him fits if he keeps shooting from a mile away. He's lucky he's being fed these Europeans who lack any sort of decent grappling.

Talented guy, but I think at this point anyone in the top 15 beats him, save maybe for Kawajiri because he's obviously washed up at this point.

 

[Buff]

I still like the guy... Although humility doesn't suit him. He was obviously emotional because of his friend passing.

I say he wins his next fight... But he could do with some striking training.

Think he's ready for Bruce Leeroy?

 

[Ryoto Machida]

He looked awful.

Feed him to Cub.

Bruce Leeroy would be a great opponent!

 

[Spycho]

I would like to see him vs. Mirsad Bektic, but I don't think the UFC wants to derail one of them as future contenders.

Makwan Bless

That guy he fought had a pretty solid ground game, so I'm not so sure about it.
On the other hand, someone with a decent tdd and decent striking would probably expose Makwan.

Great fight. Ranking wise he's ready but skill wise I'd pick Caceres either dominant UD or sub.

I say someone like Cole Miller taps him.

 

[Giovanefugazza]

Yeah he didn't looked perfect.

But his guillotine defense was one of the best that i've seen in a while, that first one was truly locked.

 

[Buff]

Great fight. Ranking wise he's ready but skill wise I'd pick Caceres either dominant UD or sub.

I'd say UD but Makwan is tricky on the ground... I would imagine Caceres sticks'n'moves to the wininless Finland either takes him down and blankets or pulls a rabbit out of his ass standing, both of which are possibilities!

 

[Rex Kwon Do]

It's about time they stop coddling him. He's earned himself a ticket to the New World and a legit opponent.

 

[legedema]

there is nothing to be scared.
it was obvious that Wilkinson had no ground game at all , he did made big mistakes.
any other fighter with some little groundgame can beat him with easy

T-city! Bring it on!

 

[Drake]

He looked awful.
