[Rampage_Jackson]

On a scale of 1-10 how do you rank the big fight feel for Khamzat vs DDP?

When is the last time the UFC put on a fight that you felt was at this level of big fight feel?



For me its a 10 and I went back looking at every PPV main event back to the covid era and nothing was topping this for me. What do you guys say?

 

[WOLVERINEKILLS]

Conor vs Khabib was a 10.
DC vs Jones was a 9.

This is a 7 at best. Interesting match up but it doesn’t have the feel of a huge fight where things are personal and there is a grudge to really make things heated and more important than just a title fight.

Those are both 10s you are right. Maybe this is a 9.5

7 I thought I was a harsh critic. If this is a 7 there hasn't been a 6 in the last 5 years

"interesting matchup"

guy is barely a fan of the sport..

I’ll give it a solid 8. It’s kinda crazy that it’s taken Khamzat so long to get here after fighting 3x in his first year in the UFC, but we’re finally here. This def has a big fight feel to me and I’m excited for it.

It’s a great match up, I like both fighters. Highly skilled and in their prime. But there are several other fights that seemed much more hyped, important, etc.:

Liddle vs Ortiz
Islam vs Volk
Jones vs Gus
Overeem vs Lesnar
Stipe vs DC
JDS vs Cain
Cyborg vs Nunes
Fedor vs Cro Cop
Anderson vs Hendo
GSP vs Diaz
Masvidal vs Diaz

Like you are one to question if someone is a fan. This fight is not generating the interest that it should be. You know this.

 

[Mesos]

For me its
8 out of 10 for Dricus vs Khamzat

Topuria vs Charles was 9 out of 10

Conor vs Khabib was 10 out 10

How was Topuria vs Charles higher??? Charles lost two fights ago he wasn’t even the best guy in the division

Yea man covid is a bitch his bad for almost dying but finally here what took ya so long Khamzat ya slacker

Absolutely wasn't lol. Nobody even wanted that fight we wanted Ilia vs Islam that fight was just a run of the mill PPV main event it didn't have aura.

Most of these are ancient history lol you are admitting there are very few fights that can match this in the last decade and yet rated it a 7 thats a weird ass scale to me

 

[AstralPanda]

Not a ton of hype behind it

But it's an interesting fight

I think it's:

Diehards 11
Casuals 6 or 7

True but still Charles is a decorated former champ and Topuria was going up a weight class for a second belt. So it had a bigger fight feel than Khamzat vs Dricus.

When did you take the plunge and become a mod?

I just woke up today and noticed I was in a strange room, missing a kidney, and my Sherdog username is suddenly blue. I’m still trying to piece it all together.

I kid I kid, I officially became blue yesterday. There a few new mods that you’ll see around.

Biggest fight since Angela Hill vs. Iasmin Lucindo

He returned from that in late 2021. He only fought 1x last year, 1x the year before….thats not due to COVID.
I say that as a fan btw, I’m glad he’s finally got the TS but even post-COVID he just hasn’t been that active.
