Paulo Costa *kills* Khamzat Chimaev

[goOb]

To think we will never get to see this fight.

 

[Ace70 V2]

Like,the Costa that fought Vettori,that would be a tough fight for Chimaev,but the Rockhold fight,he was not impressive at all.

Costa's kind of overrated,but ironically,his loss to Vettori is when I was most impressed with him.

I've been saying since that fight I would love to see a rematch at 185.

 

[HHJ]

That card was at an elevation that threw everyone for a loop. Nobody looked particularly “good” that evening. I agree about the Costa that fought Vettori I think that Costa or obviously the Romero fight version is problems for Chimaev the type that I personally wouldn’t see him overcoming.

I wasnt impressed w him in the Romero fight. From what I remember it was really sloppy and he hit his best stuff on Yoel and couldnt finish the job.

 

[Gotosleepho]

I favor Chimaev slightly but man Costa is a tough fight for him. An extremely large, strong 185 (205) lb fighter who throws haymakers and can knock him out.

 

[ExitLUPin]

This fight makes alot of sense with Costa resigning and Dana confirming Khamzat moving up. Itd be weird if it didnt happen. Dana said Khamzat is getting a top 3 MW next. Could be Rob but would be retarded if it was Cannonier lol.

“Finishing the job” against Yoel is a tall order for any human. Romeros been finished once and it was in 2011 against a more experienced Feijao and pre UFC when Yoel was still green in MMA.

Costa wins the fight, as long as he has secret juice.
Paulo's trolling and his Tweets are a bonus.

a chimaev that can still make the 170 cut would have a tough time. if he's packed on muscle to be a true 185er thats a different story

Chimaev = an ectomorph.
Costa = a mesomoph.

Chimaev would have done really well at 170, as an ectomorph cutting weight.

He will not do as well at 185, facing 220-pound mesomophs dropping down in weight.

I bet they explored one another deeper after the fight.

Nothing was deeper than what Izzy did in cage to Costa after the bell

 

[Bwagster]

Costa trying to make a comeback like his hairline.

 

[PlasticFishBowl]

71 year old Rockhold ended the fight on top of Costa making out with him. This just two fights after Costa was impregnated by Izzy while unconscious.

Khamzat sodomizes him within 1 round.

 

[SkinnyClaw]

Chen Chen fake gangster was with 10 guys, Paulo was with his girlfriend and a retired fighter, and the cage was wide open, only one guy was walking backwards the entire time, and the other was standing there completely relaxed

Chimaev would have lost to Rockhold on that same night Costa defeated him.

Remember, "the great wrestler" Khamzat was afraid to grapple the smaller, weaker Gilbert Burns.

WTF is Khamzat going to do with the bigger, stronger black belt like Paulo Costa? What could he have done to Rockhold.

Worse for the Chechen, Costa also hits harder than Burns, is bigger and stronger than Burns, and can physically impose himself on Chimaev like he's never experienced before.

This is why the chen-chen backed down, and deep inside his bones Khamzat knows this.

Glad to see Paulo Costa is still going to continue.

He is the man to ruin Khamzat Chimaev.

Wait wait wait, stopped reading at the gil part.
U have any idea who that is? Multiple time bjj world champ both in gi and no gi.
Everybody below MW should be afraid of going to the ground with Gil. take away GnP and he subs all most of the currently ranked HWs easily in a pure grappling match.

“Smaller, weaker, multiple gold medallist in world jujitsu competitions gi or no gi” Gilbert Burns

I fixed it for you

I didn’t see your post before I posted below

 

[Local Plata]

Lol @ Khamzat being 'afraid' to wrestle Burns, as opposed to just having a horrible gameplan/fight IQ.

I stopped reading at "take away GNP" ...

Then you read the entire argument and have no where to run now! Everything said before that was excluding the gnp.

People did the same thing with Jones

Oh he struggled with Reyes, he loses to any top 10 hw.

Most of you guys are just really bad at analyzing fighters because you resort to this MMA math tier reasoning.
