Team Khamzat sharing details on the fight camp for DDP

Khamzat has an easy gameplan, just run over DDP and take him down. It's really DDP who has to prepare for Khamzat. Going to be interesting to see DDP on the defensive. Also who knows might put to rest the notion Khamzat has 1 round of cardio before he "magically turns into the easiest fighter to beat". Probably the best fight of the year booked, just hope it happens.

It is like you guys consider Dricus weak. I think Chimaev is the one that needs to work on his defensive game.
 
True. So many inaccuracies and glazing going on, it is hard to take anything this character is saying. He is trying to re-write history to make it look like Dricus is not anything special or out of the ordinary by drawing examples from Khamzat's past. Khamzat was never an underdog against Whittaker. He was a -185 favorite and everyone knew Whittaker simply does not have the ground game to counter Khamzat's wrestling. He was coming off a great victory against Ikram so thought he was going to do the same with Khamzat. No one is saying this time Dricus is going to knock him out in 1st round before Khamzat could grab a hold of him.

Whittaker had said he was going to try to weather the storm and then get back up. Wrong strategy. LIke a Boa constrictor, Khamzat will constrict and strangle you, if you don't have the counter wrestling to fight back and/or the size, strength, power and speed to negate or slow down his sheer technical prowess.

He is making the same mistake all of the previous opponents of Dricus made of underestimating ("best sh*t fighter') his power, size, speed, explosiveness and mentality of fight to the death.
Literally saw a prediction video from UFC fighters and over 30 picked Whittaker while like maybe 5 picked Khamzat lol quit downplaying Khamzat's destruction of Rob. Plenty of people said he was going to expose Khamzat. Plenty of people here did too.

Dude, read what I said. I am using the betting market as the basis for the argument. I said Khamzat was a -195 favorite over +170 in the betting odds. I said -185, but he opened at -185 and then he went up to -195 as the betting favorite.

The pont I am making is, Dricus is the underdog in every single one of his fight because he is always underestimated. In this case, Dricus is the sizable underdog and Khamzat is the heavy betting favorite. There are no parallels between the situation with Whittaker and now with Dricus when everyone keeps saying 'Oh it is the same old thing. We saw the same with Whittaker'.

I am trying to stay very objective. That is why I did not share Adesanya's prediction that just came out this morning since I take his manifestation with a grain of salt.

It's currently -180 and +150 on draftkings. This could also shift more toward DDP as the fight gets closer.

Both guys get underestimated, DDP just moreso because he is more of a grinder fighter than a quick finisher like Khamzat.

What are you talking about? DDP has proven me wrong many times. His striking is better than Khamzat. Khamzat's grappling is better than DDP.

I think Khamzat is more WW size than people like to admit, he's not a giant MW while DDP is. But I don't think that size difference cancels out Khamzat's skill.

DDP has weird ass cardio, but dude can pull deep in the late rounds and get a finish. I think also if Khamzat had as bad of cardio as people say he's screwed.

This is the top MWs colliding. We still have RDR, Caio, Imavov coming after. Pretty good division right now. I think it's going to be hard for any champ to be long reigning after all those names coming.
