The future of the featherweight division is...

[Espresso]

With Holloway likely moving up as he has said the weight cut is getting more brutal everytime...

We have a guy that is a featherweight standing 6'1.5 tall !!!!!

What thee F

We just saw Ortega look like a giant vs edgar... This guy has 5.5 inches on ortega.

He is one of the best wrestlers in the division as well as one of the best strikers.

He is... Zabit Magomedsharipov.

Not gonna lie, hadnt seen anything but highlights and stats which led me to believe that he is a great creative striker with long reach, and potential. I actually found out about him before i joined the website. I have heard nothing but praise for the guy, here.

I just saw his 2 full fights in the UFC and he looks like a real problem.

You see him striking and you swear he is a primary striker like Till or Omalley but then....

I saw his wrestling. Wow. He looks like a primary wrestler out there. Reminded me a little of Khabib actually.

This guy will eat Ortega for dessert.

TBH, Elkins vs Magomedsharipov is a fight I really want right now.

Zabit is going to be in the title picture sooner rather than later

The UFC will try and hold him back because he looks homeless but you can't deny that kind of talent for too long

He looks like a legit prospect, but still a long way to go to convince me that he's on the level of Max and Ortega.

Excited for his fight on Saturday, solid move by the UFC promoting it to the main card.

Brian Ortega

This guy will KO Ortega. How is Ortega gonna take him down to apply JJ? Zabits TDD is insanely good, its like he is a wrestler-main, like Khabib.

Zabit is 6'1.5, Ortega is 5'8

Do you remember how Ortega towered over Frankie? Same way Zabit would tower over Ortega

All this hype about prospects like Till, Adensaya, O' malley a bunch of others ones... As a big Till fan (my favorite fighter), i think Zabit is the most legit...

The guy is 27 years old and still hasn't fought a top 50 fighter in the weight class; relax.

He has completely outclassed both UFC fighters that hes fought.

In a total of 5 rounds he fought in the UFC, he was hit like 20 times in total.

The way he ragdolls and dominates on the ground is unbelievable, man. He reminds me of Khabib, so technically sound he makes opponents look amateur.

His striking simply comes down to: he barely gets hit, because he doesnt trade. He just picks you apart.
Insane threat if you give him space with his series of spinning heel kicks and roundhouses... And then in pocket hes going for the TD

His IQ is off the charts!!!

Holloway vs. Ortega next.

Darren Elkins vs. Jeremy Stephens title eliminator afterwards.

Even if Holloway beat Khabib he's the type of guy who will gladly fight 4 times a year.

I repeat, he has not fought anyone in the top 50... beating 2 complete scrubs does nothing to suggest he could KO Ortega and your fanboyish gushing over him and his height will do nothing to change that. George Roop was also 6'1", did he become the GOAT? Please; let the guy fight a few names before giving him the Erick Silva top prospect crown
