I feel like this is very typical Shertard behaviour lately and that it's gotten worse. It seems like just another way for a lot of you people to shit on professional fighters. Any time fighter A calls out fighter B on Twitter and Fighter B doesn't respond, he or she is ducking fighter A? This makes no sense at all. Case in point: https://forums.sherdog.com/threads/magny-calls-out-khazmat-again.4149606/

That thread is littered with people calling Khamzat a duck. On what basis? Not responding to Magny on Twitter? We all know Dana rules with an iron fist and that the UFC treat their fighters like serfs and keep them on a very short leash. So why on earth would you blame actual fighters for all the fights that don't get booked? You think the UFC leave these things to chance? They'll book any fight that they think will generate interest, in the short or the long term. Their ideas obviously do not always coincide with what the fighters want. Is this really that difficult to understand?
 
Khamzat haters will have a field day with this once they wake up from their Pizza Roll comas.
 
Its simple, whenever a fighter that you hate pulls out regardless of how legit the reason is OR gets called out on twitter by anybody, he automatically becomes a duck.
 
I agree with TS.

IMO most (nearly all) claims of fighters ducking are made by people who don't understand how the fight game works. Furthermore ANY fighter who makes it to the UFC deserves respect.

Its ridiculous to call out a fighter when they're in a Catch 22 position.
 
Khamzat said he would fight anybody anywhere, complained he can't get a fighter, criticized fighters who are shooting for a higher ranked opponent.

Then magny calls him out in September he ignores him because he wants an higher ranked opponent, then the leon fight falls off and magny offers to be a short notice replacement but he refused it because he wants a higher ranked opponent.

He's a duck and a hypocrite because he acts exactly the way he pretends to hate

BTH I have drunk too much to read all that ^

but fighters need to take fights regularly


Many fights

often


Take all comers


THIS was the way warriors built this sport



True BUSHIDO spirit


Not this modern ‘let me game plan for 12 months BS’

More than likely, UFC are the ones that ignored Magny in both cases. Are you privy to inside information?
 
As if this needed its own thread, you ducked other threads to make your own.

The talk will stop when fighters stop ducking others.

edwards ducked wonderboy to fight chanzat, a very low ranked fighter (surprised he even got into the top 15) who will be a much easier fight.

and chanzat is ducking magny who would be a much tougher fight than Edwards.
 
Yair and GDR are the biggest duckers currently going around. Yair's seemingly intent on retiring/getting cut rather than fight Zabit and GDR literally changed back weight classes to duck Cyborg.

Yeah if khamzat says publicly that he absolutely wants to fight magny on December 19 to be up to the challenge and tweets that the UFC will totally block him yeah.

If khamzat wants to fight on sec 19 he can. He just doesn't because he's like all other fighters.

They are fuckin cringeworthy at this point. Dude just had a high profile fight breakdown and you see shixt like this in a second.. Less then 24 hours after his fight is cancelled. How many ppl does he have to split himself into 100 entities in order to fight 100 fighters on the same card
 
So your upset people think Khamzat ducked a fight so you made a thread? You sound like a diva in high school.
