Shots in the air!



Looking like a monster in new video:

It’s over for Khamzat

looks the same as always imo.

looks the same as always imo.

Speed is about the same. He is landing very hard with those gunshots because there is more weight behind them as he is much bigger here/carrying more muscle.

This is just before Adesanya fight at around 215 lbs.

All Dricus needs to do, is work on stuffing the takedown. If he can do this, then Chimaev is lost. Chimaev has one goal and that is to get your back and if you can get a takedown that is not too hard to achieve. Therefore prevent him from getting the takedown. What he does if he gets the back is straight away goes for the neck.

Looks like Khamzat always gets his takedown at will, but then again Khamzat has never faced anyone remotely like Dricus either.

 

[Tibbles]

Hyped for this one. All comes down to whether DDP can survive the initial blitz imo.

 

[brakkkop]

its gonna be a hard night for chimaev, usmanish but then 5 rounds. if he dont finish dricus within 2 rounds, dricus will consume him.

Dricus is coming in with bulldozer strength, for sure. I do bodybuilding for fitness and good health. That thick back is a product of heavy deadlifts and rowing exercises.

 

[AmonTobin]

Most people seem to be talking about grappling and gas tanks. I still think there's a chance Chimaev Soldic's him.

 

[ElLunico]

He needs to do everything in his power to survive the Khamzat tornado in the 1st round and maybe the 2nd round and the fight tilts his way by a lot after that.

Round 1 is gonna be insane.

Good luck with that!

Dricus knocked Soldic out in the first fight. Khamzat ain't getting anywhere close to knocking Dricus out. That is a fantasy.

This rematch with Soldic was 8 years ago. This was his last fight at Welterweight and he has talked about it that the weight cut to welterweight was making him too dehydrated. He is 30 - 40 lbs heavier now with a huge neck. He has never been anywhere close to being knocked out in those 11 brutal middleweight fights so probabilistically he ain't getting kncoked out especially by Chimaev.

Folded!

Prime DDP is goat level

Yeah, those guys are pretty evenly matched, size-wise. Chimaev got walloped by someone half his size in Burns

Looks like Incredible Hulk version of Georges

According to Wikipedia, ONE, and UFC, Burns and Soldic are the same height (5'10)

Khamzat and Burns were likely within a few pounds of the same weight at fight night.

There are weight classes, not height classes.

Khamzat is 6'2, Dricus 6'1.

Also, Khamzat didn't get knocked out, he took him down moments later and then went on to win the fight.

Loads of BS. You are coping hard there LOL Khamzat and Burns the same weight? These two guys even a monkey can tell have 30 - 40 lbs in between. You are desperate at this point.
